Wet Lands Flushing
A wetland area contaminated with diesel fuel spill. Significant runoff combined with spring rains caused a wet land area to flood, pushing diesel fuel into the tree line and grass edges. An inspection of the area showed that the adjacent grasses and the duff layer were saturated with the product. As the water receded back to normal summer levels, pumps and hoses were installed and an extensive flushing program was started to mimic the spring runoff from the surrounding forest into the swamp. This process along with raking of the duff layer allowed for the diesel to flow back onto the water where it could be collected and removed. The wetland recovered with plants starting to re-establish within a few weeks.
Underflow Weir
An underflow weir was constructed across a pond using blasted rock and capped on to top edge with “A” gravel. The leading edge of the weir was then lined with a 15mil HDPE liner, with the liner being submerged one half the height of the weir. The weir allowed for water to pass freely through the structure while diesel became trapped against the liner and recovered at an adjacent collection point.

channel continued • Shoreline and private docking facilites were flushed of contaminants • Response efforts were led primarily from the water
Gogama Train Derailment Winter 2015
• Crude oil into river • Contained using marine booms along right • Vac trucks, mobile vac units on off-road equipment and absorbent pads
and booms were used to collect oil • Oil trapped in ice was located and removed • Boats were used to maintain and monitor the river on a daily basis in
warmer temperatures
Gogama Train Derailment Winter 2015
• Crude oil into swamp • Contained using marine and absorbent booms • Underflow weir built to allow flow of water and not product • Affected water was treated through mobile treatment units
Montreal River Train Derailment Fall 2014
• Diesel into swamp • Spill contained using marine and absorbent booms • Vac units and absorbents used to collect product • Cold temperatures trapped diesel in ice, clean up put on hold with weekly
visits to monitor conditions • Spring 2015 – clean up continued with soil excavation and vac units as the
ice thawed
