About 90% of homes in Benton Park were built before 1980, and older garages and sheds often hold decades of paint, solvents and pesticides. Benton Park is fairly dry, at about 7 inches of precipitation a year, so a chemical spill on soil may linger in place until it is removed.
The work often covers:
- Labeling of containers and records of what was removed and where it was hauled
- Cleaning of concrete, tile, shelving and equipment with products suited to the substance
- Containment of leaks and spills so they do not reach drains, soil or other rooms
- Decontamination of tools, gear and surfaces used during the cleanup
- Removal of leaking, damaged and unlabeled containers from garages, sheds and units
