The problems associated with hazardous waste were virtually unknown prior to the 1970s, but in less than 20 years, they climbed to the top as a source of environmental concern to people in the United States. Most Americans know that Love Canal and Times Beach are locations where hazardous wastes were disposed of and serious environmental problems resulted. Millions of dollars were spent cleaning up the contamination at these sites. Other situations involving oil spills, such as the Exxon Valdez in Prince William Sound, have substantially increased the public's awareness to the need for environmental protection.

Owen Haskell Inc. provides the highest quality support for Hazardous Waste Surveying and Management to a wide variety of customers. Our 'engineers' have completed numerous hazardous waste stream characterization surveys for government institutions, and routinely accomplish surveys for millitary installations.

The Owen Haskell Solution includes:

• Evaluation of regulated constituents in waste streams associated with hazardous materials and various industrial activities
• Collection, Analysis, and Interpretation of samples
• Comprehensive review of state and federal regulatory requirements
• Waste stream characterization as necessary to ensure proper management and regulatory compliance.

An integral part of the process includes a limited pollution prevention opportunity assessment. These assessments consider the need to perform the process as well as the specific materials and methodologies used. Alternatives, such as elimination, source-reduction, or substitution are recommended as appropriate.
