July 28 2022 - 8:00AM
Clean Earth, a division of Harsco Corporation and a leading
provider in environmental and regulated waste management services,
announces it has opened a new 10-day hazardous waste transfer
facility in Caguas, Puerto Rico. The new 5,900-square-foot facility
increases Clean Earth’s capacity to transport hazardous and
non-hazardous waste from Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands to
Clean Earth’s U.S.-based treatment, storage and disposal facilities
(TSDFs) for processing and recycling.
This new facility supports the integration of
Clean Earth’s domestic infrastructure with service capability in
Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands for enterprise customers
expanding their operations in U.S. territories.
Like all Clean Earth’s 10-day facilities, the
Caguas site accepts both RCRA hazardous and non-hazardous wastes
from various industries including energy, infrastructure,
commercial, industrial, consumer commodities, medical, and
pharmaceutical markets. Customers may also transport their own
material to the facility.
Clean Earth leased the warehouse property and
secured all necessary permits in anticipation of growing demand in
the region. The 10-day facility services 312 waste generators in
Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, increasing Clean Earth’s
capacity to pursue business opportunities with retail companies
operating in the area.
“The opening of a new 10-day hazardous waste
transfer facility in Puerto Rico exemplifies Clean Earth’s
commitment to maintaining a national transportation network that
offers customers the assurance that their waste is being handled
responsibly,” said Nick Grasberger, Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer, Harsco Corporation. “With the expansion of this national
transportation network into U.S. territories, Clean Earth is
growing with its enterprise customers.”
