☀ 😰 Can’t take the heat? You shouldn’t have to! Extreme heat causes more deaths in the US than hurricanes, floods, and tornados combined, according to the CDC. Thankfully, there are environmental and infrastructure solutions that can help. https://lnkd.in/ggzCcTwh In part two of our blog series on public health, Environmental Compliance & Sustainability Intern Ellie Johnson and Emergency Management Intern Brooke Lovett discuss the impacts and risks of heatwaves and what governments, corporations, and individuals can do to cool off. What are you doing to protect yourself, your community, and/or your employees from the dangers of heatwaves? Let us know in the comments. #Heatwave #PublicHealth #EnvironmentalSolutions #Sustainability #ResilientCommunities #InPursuitOfBetter

APTIM—along with our teaming partner, Geosyntec Consultants—recently won the Carpenter Snow Creek Mining District (CSCMD) Operable Unit 1 (OU1) Superfund project for the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 8! APTIM will implement remediation of OU1 under the direction of the US Army Corps of Engineers, Omaha District. The CSCMD site, located near Neihart, Montana, encompasses approximately 9,000 acres with mine tailings, waste rock, and acid mine drainage present throughout as a result of many inactive and abandoned mines. Work will focus on remediation of parcels (i.e., residential, commercial, and public properties), roadway segments, and mine tailings, along with infrastructure improvements such as onsite repository construction and stormwater controls. We appreciate this contract award and look forward to continuing to provide services for our longtime clients, #USACE and the #EPA!
