Previous Projects (Jan 1990 - June 1998)
Industrial Waste Regulations, California
Communications Materials, Environmental Compliance, Industrial Waste Treatment, Past Projects, Previous Projects (Jan 1990 - June 1998)
Waste Minimization Program, California
Program utilized: aqueous photo-developing solutions to replace chlorinated solvent developing solutions, and sodium borohydride as a reducing agent to separate dissolved metals in chelated electroplating solutions. The treatment systems and source modifications contributed to a 67 percent hazardous waste reduction within 18 months.
Environmental Compliance, Industrial Waste Treatment, Past Projects, Previous Projects (Jan 1990 - June 1998)
Waste Minimization Program Initiation and Implementation
Project involved use of membrane filtration, carbon absorption, and baghouse dust segregation. Treated wastewater was used as make up for subsequent batches and excess waste solvent was utilized as a fuel source for off-site incineration. The system helped reduce 54 percent of the annual waste generated.
Environmental Compliance, Industrial Waste Treatment, Past Projects, Previous Projects (Jan 1990 - June 1998)
Hazardous Materials Containment Plan, Portland, OR
Assessed the hazardous materials and waste activities and completed containment plans and designs for 10 businesses adjacent to the Columbia South Shore Slough.
Environmental Compliance, Industrial Waste Treatment, Past Projects, Previous Projects (Jan 1990 - June 1998), Storage Tanks & Asbestos Cleanup
Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures Plan
Conducted site inspections, developed an inventory of the chemicals and their associated quantities, and assessed the increased future chemical storage needs.
Past Projects, Phase I Site Assessments, Pollution Prevention, Previous Projects (Jan 1990 - June 1998)
Oil Spill Prevention Strategy Plan, Seattle, Washington
Conducted a comprehensive site assessment, reviewed environmental documents, evaluated on-site spill prevention systems, and prepared an oil spill prevention strategy plan. This project also required preparation of a risk analysis which accounted for potential worst case scenario occurrences in the event of bulk fuel tank leaks or complete rupture.
Past Projects, Pollution Prevention, Previous Projects (Jan 1990 - June 1998), Storage Tanks & Asbestos Cleanup
RCRA Part B Permit Application Project
Project involved negotiation with state environmental regulators; evaluation of process, groundwater, and waste characteristics information; and development of an interim measure corrective action plan for groundwater protection.
Environmental Compliance, Past Projects, Previous Projects (Jan 1990 - June 1998)

Past Projects, Pollution Prevention, Previous Projects (Jan 1990 - June 1998)
Pollution Prevention Plan, Longview, Washington
Assessed the hazardous substance and waste generating processes, identified and evaluated alternative technologies and substitute products, and prepared economic comparisons and waste minimization goals.
Past Projects, Pollution Prevention, Previous Projects (Jan 1990 - June 1998)
Pollution Prevention Plan for a Water Power Company
Determined the waste stream designations and accounted for hazardous materials used. Interviewed key personnel and prepared mass balance calculations to determine waste generation and production use of hazardous materials. Project involved evaluating PCB dechlorination versus incineration processes. Assisted client with recycling opportunities.
