Avoid being prosecuted for any environmental issue:
Sometimes you have a site environmental problem that needs fixing but there’s no money in the budget. Your fear may be that a disaster will happen or that you will be found out by the EPA?
At Virotec, we remove this fear of being prosecuted by:
- knowing what the latest and relevant environmental penalties and legislation are and how they relate to your circumstances
- providing a free of charge risk assessment audit to quantify your risks, the likelihood of them happening and the associated remediation costs. We don’t doctor audits to get work so if there are doubts, then let us agree on an independent third party to assess our findings. Prove us wrong and we will pay for the costs of that assessment
- providing environmental treatment and remediation for any issue or problem – on time and as a fixed price. No variations and no late running. We are the experts who tackle the really difficult problems. And if there is an unforeseen contaminant that we didn’t pick up in our initial assessment, then you pay no more; and
- guaranteeing our results. We will pay any EPA fines if we don’t deliver and we will also indemnify you against any further prosecution penalties.
Combine our methodology, guarantee and 100% track record, and forget about any fears of prosecution.
Remove your fear of a disaster (and associated negative publicity)
No one wants to have their name negatively splashed all over the paper for any environmental issue. Or have outraged pressure groups or the government crawling all over them.
We remove the potential for any environmental disaster after you decide on the acceptable risks for your environmental hazards. We will:
- enter into the strictest confidentiality agreements with you where there are contentious issues that you don’t want made public – we are not environmental police but your remediation help
- treat your highest risk projects first – this reduces the likelihood of an environmental issue occurring
- give you a list of options, including budget costs of full and partial treatments – you choose what you want to do and when; and
- remove any contaminants from you site, manage the EPA and dispose of them in accordance with EPA protocols.
If budgets are tight, treat those highest risk projects with the lowest costs first.
With our 100% track record, you can forget any fears of an environmental disaster.
Turn some or all of your environmental liabilities into profit
Environmental budgets can be pretty tight and the pressure is on to keep the costs down as environmental remediation or waste disposal doesn’t make money.
But what if we could tell you which environmental problems can actually make you money or become an asset? Would out of budget funds be found for these items? Plus these environmental issues would be removed without the worry of a disaster or EPA site visit!
Our free of charge assessment of converting your environmental liabilities into assets and profit is the starting point. If it’s cost neutral or better, we remediate it so you can remove a problem and turn a profit from your waste.
Take the case of coal seam gas extraction – the sludge can be used as topsoil and the fracking ground or artesian water can be used for re-use in the process or at worst, for irrigation.
So do the high margin jobs first (the types of waste that make you the most profit) and at the same time, satisfy the EPA.
