EMS Projects

 

EMS key professionals and associates have provided technical support and managed many projects for industrial and government clients.  These projects ranged from initial environmental screening to remediation of soils and groundwater.  The following is a selected list of these projects.  All projects were completed with zero lost work days due to occupational illness or injury. 

Text Box: U. S. Army Joint Munitions Command (JMC) Characterization, Profiling, and Disposal of Radioactive Remediation Waste

This project involves characterization, profiling, sorting, packaging, and transportation of approximately 10,000 cubic yards of radioactive low-level and mixed waste streams excavated from a Navy major NPL site in California. 

 

Scope of work under this project also includes procurement of waste containers and transportation subcontractors, and evaluation and optimization of waste treatment and disposal options.

U.S. Department of Energy

Decontamination and Decommissioning of Radioactive Facilities

This project, managed by one of EMS’ Principals, involved chemical and radiological characterization and survey, decontamination of building walls, floors, and ceilings, and removal of contaminated piping systems, drain lines and internal structures.  The successful completion of this project was verified by a DOE independent verification contractor and the California Department of Health Services Radiological Branch.

Laboratory for Energy Related Health Research

Environmental Restoration and Waste Management Project

As a first tier subcontractor, EMS has provided unique technical and management support to this multi-million dollar superfund project.  EMS involvement included preparation and/or review of key CERCLA, RCRA, NEPA and CEQA documents including preparation of a closure plan for the onsite Mixed Waste Storage Facility, evaluation of remedial alternatives, and closure of RCRA facilities.  EMS scope also included characterization, designation, profiling, and disposition of radioactive, mixed, and hazardous wastes and materials, developing and implementing effective radiation protection programs, providing radiation worker training to more than 200 project personnel and participating in various internal and external QA, H&S and radiation protection audits and surveillances.  EMS staff played a key role in developing and negotiating cleanup strategies with the regulators that has saved the client several million dollars in remediation work.
