Environmental Capping

We can place natural material evenly over a wide area.  We best fit when heavy equipment can't/shouldn't go, there are easement/access issues or the area is environmentally sensitive, such as marshes, swamps, tide flats, dense forests, etc.

​

Environmental Capping involves placing a cover over contaminated material such as landfill waste or contaminated soil.  Such covers are called “caps.” Caps do not destroy or remove contaminants. Instead, they isolate them and keep them in place to avoid the spread of contamination. Caps also prevent people and wildlife from coming in contact with contaminants.  In-situ capping is a term used that just means the cap stays in place.
