THE CHALLENGE A fuel truck crash in Kline Township, PA, released approximately 2,000 gallons of diesel into a Cold Water Fishery and Drinking Water Supply. In order to pursue liability protection and establish reactivation of the downstream water supply Keystone Petroleum contracted Advantage to provide emergency response environmental, ecological and remediation services. OUR SOLUTION Advantage conducted immediate on-foot inspections of the release site and downstream reaches as well as site characterization to delineate the extent of the release and oversight of the remedial action, including the disposal of 105 tons of impacted soil.
