Waste Management
The Bodhi Group has successfully managed waste profiling and disposal for clients resulting in cost savings, avoiding violations, and being good stewards of the environment:
- Identifying California hazardous waste (22 CCR 66261 et al) and RCRA hazardous waste (40 CFR 261 et al)
- Using statistical tools to show that a large mass of contaminated soil will likely have representative chemical concentrations below cleanup or variance criteria
- Advising clients to maximize reuse of soil with minor contamination under Caltrans variance, waste discharge requirements for reuse of fuel contaminated soil, and sites that have cleanup requirements
- Segregating the “worst of the worst” RCRA hazardous soil such that minimal volumes are disposed of
- Managing the “self-implementing cleanup” to determine representative concentrations of PCB remediation waste by compositing samples from stockpiles under TSCA (40 CFR 761 et al) and PCB disposal amendment
- Advising clients of hazardous waste rules (e.g., stockpiling duration, on site management, documentation, permitted facilities)
- Advising clients of “Alternate Management Standards” for disposal of treated wood waste at non-hazardous landfills, which otherwise may have required hazardous waste disposal
