Scope Of Work
Overview
The Jacobs Smelter EPA Emergency Removal Action site consisted of 13,950 tons of lead, arsenic and cadmium contaminated milling and smelter waste from historic lead and zinc mining operations located in and around the town of Stockton, Utah. Under EPA project administration; MT2 was contracted by Environmental Chemical Corporation to provide treatment of contaminated soil.
MT2 Services
Contaminated soil treatment involved chemically stabilizing the waste with ECOBOND® to UTS standards which are the most stringent stabilization standards required by the EPA. Under UTS standards leachable lead, cadmium and arsenic were stabilized to less than 0.75 ppm, 0.11 ppm and 5 ppm, respectively.
Outcome
All treated waste was accepted by the EPA and disposed of in a nearby commercial landfill saving the EPA $697,350.
