Contaminated Sediment Remediation Pilot Project. Tests from a creosote-contaminated dredge project show the effectiveness of the PCS™. Within the boom, total suspended solids (TSS) was reduced from 350 to 12 mg/L, turbidity dropped from 96 to 1.5 NTU and all other conventional pollutants were below detectable levels (ND).
Exxon Valdez Oil Spill. During the cleanup of Alaska’s 1989 oil spill, Gunderboom’s PCS™ was deployed in several key locations to protect the region’s critical salmon spawning streams and pristine glacier fjords from contamination.
Homer, Alaska. In 1996 Homer needed to double the size of its boat harbor but the project coincided with salmon spawning season. A Gunderboom PCS™ was deployed to enclose the underwater work area. The spawning salmon and other marine life were protected, and the dredging operations were able to proceed.
