In addition, IWT Cargo-Guard supplied the contractor\u00a0oil containment and absorbent booms\u00a0<\/b><\/a>along with\u00a0sweeps, and oil snares<\/b><\/a>\u00a0to grab the material within the work zone.<\/p>\n

The most successful curtain designs involve a compilation of information provided by the engineers, site contractors, local marine contractors as well as turbidity barrier manufacturers and their representatives.[\/vc_column_text][mk_divider style=”thick_solid” border_color=”#ef6437″][mk_fancy_title strip_tags=”true” size=”23.5″ font_weight=”bold” font_style=”italic” margin_bottom=”10″ font_family=”none” align=”center” responsive_align=”left”]\u201cIWT Cargo-Guard \/ Spilldam Environmental assisted the Ashland MGP project by designing and constructing a one of a kind turbidity curtain system which allowed JF Brennan to carry out the marine operations. Without the innovative solutions created for the project, a massive sheet pile wall would have been required to conduct the remedial activities. With the curtains, Brennan was able to carry out the project without the installation of the wall which saved the client a substantial amount of money.\u201d[\/mk_fancy_title][mk_fancy_title strip_tags=”true” size=”23.5″ font_weight=”bold” font_style=”italic” margin_bottom=”10″ font_family=”none” align=”center” responsive_align=”left”]\n

It is also important to select the appropriate anchor systems and accessories. Many environmental dredging projects north of the Mason-Dixon line take place in late Spring through Fall. This can add significant time frames to both site supply and production.<\/p>\n

We have carefully selected the best manufacturers to supply our clients. If one is booked, we have three others to move in and service your needs. We are confident in our multi-tiered approach to supply your project in a timely fashion with a quality product.
