On August 29, 2008, Envirocon was awarded the final RCRA closure project at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal (RMA). Envirocon will construct a RCRA-Cover over a 21-acre hazardous waste landfill. The Enhanced Hazardous Waste Landfill (ELF) was constructed in 2001/2002 to accept waste from the Former Basin F Waste Site, where some of the most contaminated soil in the nation had been stockpiled since 1989. Since 2004, over 1.1 million cubic yards of hazardous waste has been placed in the ELF. Since 2006, Envirocon both excavated and hauled over 380,000 cubic yards of contaminated soil to the ELF, and also accepted and placed the waste in the ELF under the ELF Operations Project. Our performance of excavation and ELF operations activities were key to this strategic win.

Envirocon’s work under this new contract will be to construct a 21-acre RCRA cover to include a four-layer geosynthetic cover, followed with a 1-foot soil cushion layer, a 16-inch layer of large crushed concrete, a 3.75-foot vegetative soil layer, and a 1-foot rock-amended soil layer. Envirocon is teamed with CLI-Clearwater for geosynthetics installation and Fiore & Sons for haul truck and scraper operations. We will also provide all placement and grading efforts, quality control, engineering, health and safety, and project management.

Since 1998, Envirocon has successfully performed over 20 projects at RMA. With over 10 years of project operations at RMA, Envirocon has a history of safe, successful, and on-time completion, and a proven ability to consolidate multi-faceted work scopes under the direction of a single management team. We have compiled more than 2.0 million safe work hours and contributed substantially to the site’s OSHA VPP Star status in the process.
