ENVIRONMENTAL DRILLING
Providing Everything You Need
Environmental drilling & sampling is generally done for phase II environmental assessments of commercial, government, and residential properties. By drilling through the soil and water table, environmental investigations can be done to determine the presence and concentration of contaminants in the water table. When all of the environmental drilling is completed to depth, we are then able to install 1″- 2″ monitoring wells through our drill tooling.
This type of drilling is done for many reasons, such as: monitoring environmentally sensitive sites, real estate transactions, horizontal and vertical delineation of contaminants of concern
KEEPING IT CLEAN
Soil samples are retrieved in a similar manner to that of geotechnical drilling. The split spoons are required to be washed using potable water with an Alconox detergent powder in-between samples to help prevent cross-contamination.
