Incidental Contaminant Removal Action

Incidental Contaminant Removal Action

Cape Prominence, Unalaska Island, Alaska

Ahtna successfully removed 360 tons of POL-contaminated soil from Davis Air Force Cantonment Area and Cape Prominence FUDs during the 2020 field season. Site conditions were poor and worse than expected with road access across the islands extremely limited which could not support wheeled vehicles of any type. However, Ahtna successfully completed the work on time and without issue through careful planning and the use of tracked heavy equipment and helicopters to minimize impacts to roadways, wetlands, and stream crossings. Ahtna successfully completed work during the COVID-19 pandemic through a rigorous safety, testing, and monitoring protocol and use of a remote camp and transport and housing vessels.
