Park Environmental is assisting the National Environmental Management Authority (NEMA) of Kenya in developing a remediation strategy to investigate and remediate lead contamination caused by a former lead smelter in Mombasa. Site Investigation is slated to start in December 2022.
PAST PROJECTS OF NOTE
ASPHALT TANKER ROLLOVER REMEDIATION
Directed emergency response team, project management, field level supervision, safety supervision, and fieldwork conducted on an asphalt tanker rollover. Approximately 20,000 L of liquid asphalt was spilled down a ravine and into a creek. Initial spill response was conducted. Remedial excavations were conducted and subsequent remediation of the downstream watershed.

Conducted all project proposals, project planning, project communication, field level supervision, safety supervision, and fieldwork on Phase III investigations and risk management programs at contaminated service station sites. Programs included drilling, soil sampling, soil vapour sampling, groundwater monitoring, groundwater sampling, hydrogeological testing, and groundwater treatment programs.
DIESEL FUEL
SPILL REMEDIATION
Responsible for emergency response team supervision, project management, field level supervision, safety supervision, and fieldwork conducted on a diesel fuel tanker rollover. Initial spill response was conducted and fuel was transferred to receiving tanker. Over 6,000 liters of diesel fuel was spilled.
