EEC recently opened a mid-Atlantic branch office in Annapolis, Maryland. The new EEC Mid-Atlantic branch is conveniently located in Annapolis, Maryland allowing quick and easy access to major markets including Washington D.C., Virginia, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New York. This new venture gives EEC the capability to tackle the most technically challenging projects anywhere in the United States and abroad.
EEC conducted site investigations and ongoing remediation of a large scale volatile organic compound (VOC) release with tetrachloroethene (PCE) concentrations in excess of 1,000,000 µg/L. The project location is less than 1/4 mile upgradient of a municipal drinking water well, and the VOC plume is co-mingled with a trichloroethene (TCE) and PCE plume from a downgradient former aerospace facility.
Industry: Aerospace
EEC conducted an assessment and remediation project resulting from the termination of a long-term lease by an aerospace firm. Chlorinated solvent use was determined to be the cause of soil impacts. A fast-tracked project approach resulted in the site’s closure within 18 months.
EEC operates and maintains two groundwater treatment systems capable of operating at an extraction capacity of more than 350 gallons per minute while capturing a volatile organic compounds (VOC) plume. More than 200,000 gallons of extracted and treated groundwater is utilized per day as the on-site plant’s operational process water.
Industry: Landfill / Superfund Site
EEC provides professional engineering services to Veolia Water as the current plant engineer for the operation, monitoring, and maintenance of remediation systems at the Stringfellow Acid Pits. The Stringfellow site once operated as a hazardous waste disposal facility and more than 34 million gallons of industrial waste, primarily from metal finishing, electroplating, and pesticide production, were deposited in evaporation ponds that impacted beneficial-use groundwater beneath the site.
Industry: Industrial Laundry
EEC implemented a large-scale dual-phase extraction (DPE) remediation system to address petroleum hydrocarbon-impacted soil and groundwater. EEC’s construction division performed turnkey installation of extraction wells, transit piping, and a system compound. EEC is currently performing weekly operations and maintenance and is on pace for projected site closure.

Hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking,” is a stimulation process used to extract natural gas (and in some cases oil) from deep reserves 5,000-8,000 feet below the ground surface. This process allows energy companies to access previously unavailable energy sources in Californi...
