Before the fire was even extinguished, ELEGY disaster response teams were on site planning the oil clean-up and land remediation tactics that have now successfully contained much of the potential for environmental disaster.
​
Emergency Response Teams First Objectives:
-
We established an onsite field-headquarters to coordinate the emergency oil spill response teams. Meanwhile, waste disposal and tank sites were rapidly identified, nominated and placed on standby.
-
Un-burnt fuel and other liquids were pumped and transported from the site, whilst other specialist vehicles were engaged in excavating and clearing the vast area that was affected.
-
Working as Principal Contractor in the aftermath of the Burchfield explosion and fire was an exceptional team effort and an unrivalled demonstration of ELEGY response capability.

Contingency Planning
Every business and organization can experience a serious incident that can prevent it from continuing normal operations. This could be from flooding, oil spills or an energy shortage.
ELEGY can assist organizations with contingency planning and training including realistic exercises.
Spill services including emergency oil spill response are available on a retainer contract basis for the reassurance of guaranteed response.
