Waste Management & Remediation Services

Does your company generate waste?

Are you in compliance with hazardous and nonhazardous waste management
 requirements?

Does your facility have an up-to-date emergency contingency plan?

Consider this...

• Has your facility investigated whether it complies with all local, State, and Federal regulations regarding hazardous material storage, handling, and disposal activities?

• Do you properly handle fluorescent light bulbs, identify PCBs, manage used oil, recycle scrap materials, and/or characterize your waste streams for proper disposal or alternative end use?

Whether your remediation project is voluntary or ordered by a regulatory agency, E. Cooney Associates, Inc., can assist you from planning to completion with approach design, project management, document completion and filing, and other technical assistance.
