North American Mine Services, Inc. professionals have been trained in Hazardous Waste Operations, and Emergency Response to meet the requirements of Sara Title 1 OSHA CFR 29 191120 requirements.
The characterization of the physical and chemical properties of a contaminated site is a critical first step in soil and groundwater remediation. Surface and subsurface techniques including geophysical surveying, profiling, drilling and sampling are effectively used to complete the project. Groundwater monitoring wells, production wells and piezometer wells can be installed to define stratigraphy, geologic structure, groundwater flow conditions, and contaminate migration.
