REGULATORY EXPERIENCE

Environmental Consulting

At Talon/LPE, our Engineering group is one of our greatest strengths. Talon/LPE is registered as an Engineering Firm in Texas, Oklahoma and Louisiana. We have specialized experience in designing remediation systems for a wide range of soil and groundwater contaminants including: crude oil, gas condensate, refined petroleum products, and metals. Each remediation system design is tailored to meet the specific requirements and conditions of the individual site. Talon/LPE has experience utilizing various remediation methods such as dual-phase extraction, soil-vapor extraction, air-sparging, bioremediation, bioventing, landfarming, in-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO), surfactant flushing, subsurface injections and soil shredding. With the assistance of our construction group, we can provide all construction related services necessary to implement the remediation design.

Talon/LPE offers on-site soil shredding services for the treatment of soils impacted by hydrocarbons and other compounds. Impacted soils are first excavated and stockpiled at the subject site either by Talon/LPE or the client’s own excavation crew. Talon/LPE personnel assess the impacted soil to determine contaminant concentrations and which, if any, amendments are necessary for the remediation process. A processing area is identified with the client based on the amount of soil to be processed, the type of equipment required and any site limitations or landowner considerations.

Impacted soils are fed through the shredder with a loader or backhoe. As treated material exits the equipment, it forms 8’ - 12’ tall stockpiles. The shredder is pulled along the processing area by a truck to create loosely formed elongate piles. Whenever space allows, Talon/LPE prefers to leave these piles undisturbed while the remediation compounds continue to react with the contaminants. The loosely piled material allows for better volatilization and off-gassing during the remediation process.

SOIL SHREDDING

During the shredding process, Talon/LPE personnel will monitor the effectiveness of the treatment by analyzing the processed material with various field testing methods. Additionally, samples will be collected for laboratory analysis to ensure that remediation goals and/or regulatory remediation standards are achieved.

Once laboratory analysis verifies that contaminants have been reduced to below regulatory action levels, the material can be returned to the excavation and used as backfill. Depending on the scope and scale of your project, remediation of your impacted soils can be completed within a matter of days.

Soil Shredding

BENEFITS & LIMITATIONS

Soil Shredding

While soil shredding is an excellent tool in our remediation toolbox, it is not the only tool and can be less effective in specific conditions. Soil type and soil chemistry need to be considered when selecting any remediation strategy. Also, high moisture content in certain soil types may reduce the effectiveness of the shredding process. There are significant benefits to soil shredding versus traditional dig and haul or in-situ treatment of impacted soils, as soil shredding eliminates the following:

• The expense of transporting soil to an offsite disposal facility;• The expense of the disposal facility;• The liability of transporting and disposing of contaminated material;• The expense of importing fill material;• Landowner concerns of importing invasive plant species with fill material;• The need for long-term monitoring associated with in-situ treatment methods.

Our Construction Division offers a wide range of services to support all aspects of the environmental industry. A clear understanding of the environmental industry and the governing regulations is the key component that sets Talon/LPE’s Construction Division apart from other contractors. Our construction foremen and crews have extensive experience performing construction services at environmentally impacted sites across the southwestern United States.
