Q: What’s something surprising people may not know about your company?
A: Not only does Miller Environmental provide final disposal for industrial hazardous and hazardous waste, but it also provides industrial onsite services and project management. This includes vacuum truck services, industrial cleaning, spill response, remediation and demolition.
Q: Do you have any recent projects, innovations, or achievements you’re especially proud of?
A: Miller took on the project of a comprehensive remediation and demolition of a decommissioned grain elevator in Winnipeg, listed as a contaminated, which had deteriorated and attracted trespassers. Environmental assessments found widespread arsenic contamination and a water-filled basement with deteriorating structures, presenting additional risks. The owner needed a solution meeting environmental compliance and regulatory standards for future development. Various strategies were considered; however, in situ arsenic stabilization was deemed risky and unproven. Miller Environmental’s approach offered full excavation, transport, and treatment through its own licensed facility, ensuring regulatory compliance and single-point accountability throughout the project.
