The EPA is planning a two-day conference, called the Green
Cleanup Symposium, on Feb. 10-11 at Drexel University in Philadelphia. The
conference will explore the most environmentally safe methods to clean up and
revitalize contaminated properties. According to an agency press release, the meeting will
feature presentations from the nation's top thinkers on how to properly clean
up abandoned or contaminated properties so that the land can be reused as a
safe and sustainable community resource.
The EPA hopes to share its best management practices for optimizing environmental performance and implementing protective cleanups.
Some examples of utilizing greener cleanup techniques include using equipment that emits less particulate matter to the air, sizing equipment accurately to avoid wasted energy, water, and material, and using renewable energy or recycled material to decrease greenhouse gas emissions and conserve resources.
