Summit Environmental Contractors (SEC) was awarded a contract by Security Paving Company for the California Department of Transportation in District 7 Los Angeles County, CA.

Summit’s scope of work included:
- Safety and Project Plan Preparation
- Air Monitoring and Project Oversight
- Removal and Transportation of Hazardous Material
- Engineering Support and Field Testing
Summit played a vital role in removing and properly disposing of 60,000 tons of contaminated soil while also SEC providing dewatering services for over 400,000 gallons of contaminated liquids out of the project site. In order for the project to start and be completed on time these services are required. Contaminated liquids not only create health hazards for project site personnel, they also can damage equipment on site if neglected. Summit’s services are necessary to create a safe and non hazardous work environment for all personnel involved, as well as the surrounding community by removing these toxins.
