Case Study: OCTA Improves OC Streetcar Construction Compliance with Ultrasystems Environmental Support

Orange County Transportation Authority manages OC Streetcar soil contamination with Ultrasystems

The Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) was building a new streetcar line and needed to enforce a wide range of environmental mitigation measures during construction. Ultrasystems Environmental was engaged by the construction manager, PGH Wong Engineering, to provide comprehensive environmental compliance and construction management services, including hazardous materials management.

Ultrasystems implemented a full-scale environmental monitoring and mitigation program. Their work included hazardous waste management, worker training, and overseeing the disposal of unexpectedly large volumes of contaminated soil. Ultrasystems' experts developed systems to segregate waste types, select disposal sites, and ensure full compliance with storage and transportation regulations, successfully mitigating the project's environmental risks.
