Safety is our first priority - Stauffer Chemical Co Cleanup

“Safety is our first priority” is COMANCO’s safety motto, and it’s especially true during our work at the Stauffer Chemical Company Superfund Cleanup in Tarpon Spring, FL. As seen above, our crews are taking the extra safety measure of stretching for a few minutes before starting work in the morning. This is a new technique for us and superintendent Jorge Barrantes reports it’s been very successful. 

 A lot of the industrial work we do is about creating safe places for disposal/storage of waste created as a by-product of necessary industries such as phosphate. At the Stauffer Chemical site we are helping protect the beautiful waters of the Anclote River, a popular recreational water body.

The Citrus County Central Landfill Phase III Expansion project began for COMANCO in July, and since then our teams have completed construction of the access road, sub-base limerock installation, water retention pond construction, earth cutting & filling of cell, trenching and construction of a stormwater ditch on east end of the cell. We’re in process of installing 8” solid HDPE pipe, GSE Bi-Planar and Nonwoven geotextile and Mirafi Biaxial Geogrid. Over the next few days liner deployment on the slopes will continue, followed by tie-in of the floor panels.
