So what do you do if you know that you have a plume of polluted soil underneath your building? It is a liability to let the contaminated soil continue to spread and potentially reach a water supply or something else, but to clean the soil will you have to tear up your building? Will it disrupt business? How long will the clean up take? Usually people ask these questions and just end up ignoring the problem. There are buildings all over the world that have this very problem including:
- Manufacturing Facilities
- Gas Stations
- Dry Cleaners
- And More
There are some excellent, excellent examples of clean up jobs that were completed by Directional Technologies Inc using horizontal well technology.
