W&M has provided due diligence services, Leaking Petroleum Storage Tank (LPST) site assessments, Texas Risk Reduction Program (TRRP) site assessments and reporting, tank removal, remediation design/oversight, and obtained regulatory closure at mulitiple facilities for our client throughout Texas (as well as OK, KS, AR, and Jamaica). W&M’s work with our client was instrumental in obtaining regulatory closure of Service Operations Centers in the following locations: Fort Worth, Arlington, Dallas, Austin, Midland, Houston, Corpus Christi, Richardson, Longview, McKinney, San Antonio, Tomball, Huntsville, Midlothian, and Pittsburg.  

W&M assisted potentially responsible parties (PRP) in the closure of former battery disposal facility in Palmer, Texas. This site contained approximately 20,000 cubic yards of battery casing chips and other battery related waste materials. W&M conducted field investigations to delineate the environmental impacts, developed a site closure acceptable to the TCEQ, prepared plans and specifications to implement closure plan, assisted with selection of remediation contractor, and performed confirmation sampling and regulatory coordination. The remediation plan consisted of a RCRA-type solid waste management unit (SWMU) consolidating on-site waste materials and impacted soils. The SWMU was capped using on-site clay and the site was issued a VCP Final Certificate of Completion. W&M significantly reduces site closure costs by keeping the wastes on site (no off-site disposal) and utilizing Tier II calculations to minimize on-site excavation volumes.

W&M performed a wide range of environmental services for this former copper wire manufacturer while it was still in operation and after it was shut down and ultimately sold to a real estate investor.

Following plant shut down, W&M assisted the client with Phase II sampling, remediation of impacted soil, and closure through the TCEQ Correction Action Program. The Site has been cleaned up and closed and ultimately sold to an investor.

W&M developed SWP3s for over 100 concrete batch plants and associated aggregate mines across Texas, Louisiana, and Arkansas. Site visits were conducted at each facility over a period of approximately three weeks. In addition, non-compliance issues were also noted and communicated to the Client. SWP3s were developed in accordance with each state’s General Permit. Budget and scheduling goals were achieved by developing report templates for each type of facility and conducting Site visits according to geographical areas.
