Cambria Contracting and Environmental Remediation

One of the most important tasks Cambria Contracting Inc is responsible for during a large scale demolition project is the environmental remediation of the site at the end of the project.  Environmental Remediation is the removal of pollution and/or contaminants from soils, groundwater, sediments, and/or surface water.  This is stage of a large scale demolition is critical as if it is done incorrectly it can inflict large scale harm to local human health and the larger environment in general.  The issues at stake with environmental remediation projects make it essential to use a firm who has worked closely with the DEC like Cambria Contracting Inc.  Most remediations in general are subjected to a plethora or regulatory requirements from several levels of government.  Both knowledge and experience are crucial in making sure these regulations are met or surpassed.  

A Brownfield Site is a defunct or abandoned industrial or commercial site that is now zoned or available for re-use.  However, re-using the site is oftern in conflict with real or perceived contamination threats left over from the previous occupants.  Cambria Contracting Inc. is well versed in bringing sites like this up to code.  Different requirements exist for different types of remediations.  Paper Mills, Power Plants, and Industrial Forges have several similarities as far as waste goes (asbestos, industrial greases) but they also have significant differences in contaminants as well.  Cambria Contracting's familiarity with these specifications is what makes them the best in North America.

Once a Brownfield site is remediated to a Greenfield status, it is safe for re-use once more.  The value of a location is intrinsic in pursuing projects like this for re-use.  But often regulations cite that environmental remediation also must be at the end of any demolition project with known hazards.  Part of Cambria Contracting Inc's success is that they handle all phases of a demolition project from start to finish.  Their staff and engineers have worked closely with the DEC in the past and understand what is necessary to rehabilitate a site.  Cambria Contracting Inc is an invaluable asset to companies and governments alike that must take on large-scale demolition projects.
