Metal and petroleum contamination of the soils near a drain sump was the primary concern. Our evaluation found metal compounds in the soil in low concentrations, however, a Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH) analysis indicated concentrations above state clean up levels. Based on these findings, a soil excavation / soil replacement plan was developed for the site for the remediation of the petroleum contaminated soils.

F&A provided turn-key project management including all site work from start to finish, and implementation of a site specific Health and Safety Plan. F&A estimated the amount of soil to be removed, directed and managed the generation of waste manifests to the landfill, conducted the sampling and analysis of soil to confirm the removal of the impacted soil, and monitored the replacement and compaction of clean soil to the site.

F&A conducted an in-depth investigation at this site to determine if subsurface soils around a sump drain, located at the facility's scrap metal storage area, were impacted by metal and/or petroleum compounds. The site operates as an electric hand tool manufacturer located in a developing industrial area of Blytheville, Arkansas.

F&A was retained to investigate subsurface soils located in a scrap metal storage area.
