SCC staff have managed more than 50 site investigations and remediations of agricultural chemical handling facilities. These projects have involved a variety of agchem businesses ranging from small agronomy facilities that handle fertilizers, to aerial applicator facilities with complex pesticide contamination problems, to large fertilizer manufacturing plants with extensive soil and groundwater contamination. Additional work includes the design and reconstruction of earthen liquid fertilizer containment structures as well as the implementation of phytoremediation technologies to manage storm water and clean up soil and groundwater contamination using trees.

We look at each project as unique, frequently using innovative means to reduce project costs and to achieve client goals. Clients and regulatory staff have come to expect and appreciate our unique and cost-effective approaches to solving complex remediation problems.

State programs to reimburse costs for agricultural chemical facilities conducting site investigations and cleanups include:

• The Wisconsin Agricultural Chemical Cleanup Program (ACCP)
• The Minnesota Agricultural Chemical Response and Reimbursement Account Program (ACCRA)
• The Illinois Agrichemical Facility Response Action Program (AFRAP)
• Michigan Groundwater Stewardship Program (MGSP).
