About Allied Environmental

Meeting our clients' needs through integrity, technical abilities, ingenuity and prompt communication.

Since 1989 the employees and partners of Allied Environmental Consultants have focused on the ideals contained in our

mission statement. Delivering on these ideals has gained Allied many loyal clients who continually seek our help on new

projects. We believe this focus is also the reason Allied enjoys a reputation for providing quality, cost-effective solutions

for our clients. Combining our technical expertise with the agility of a small business ensures our continued success and

longevity.

Allied is organized as an employee-owned environmental and engineering consulting firm. We trace the company’s

origin to a department of the premier engineering consulting firm headquartered in Wichita, Kansas. In 1993, the engi-

neering firm developed the department into a wholly-own subsidiary, officially calling the new company Allied Environ-

mental Consultants, Incorporated. The new company achieved success in the early 1990s by procuring a hazardous

waste management and safety contract with Boeing on chemical process line demolition projects. Allied distinguished

itself in the area of solid waste management, when it consulted on and prepared some of the first regional solid waste

management plans accepted by the State of Kansas. Another early success came when an international container cor-

poration selected Allied to consult on a Superfund site located in South Central Kansas. Between 1993 and 1997, Allied

added services related to the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, Oil Pollution Prevention Act. The engineering firm sold the

company to the current employees in 1997.

Experience: Featured Project

Kansas State University - Old Chemical Waste Landfill Turnkey Services

Manhattan, Kansas

Kansas State University (K-State) retained Allied in 2000 to complete a “Hydrogeology Investigation” required under the

terms of the Consent Agreement Order (CAO) entered into with the Kansas Department of Health and Environment

(KDHE) Bureau of Waste Management (BWM). The purpose of the Hydrogeology Investigation, or HI, was to evaluate

groundwater contamination known to be leaking from the closed Old Chemical Waste Landfill (OCWLF) located north of

the K-State football stadium. K-State used the OCWLF to disposal of radioactive waste materials (scintillation fluid,

protective gear, lab ware, etc.) and chemical wastes starting in 1960 through 1979 (for chemicals) and to 1987 for non-

chemical radioactive materials. The materials were placed in trenches dug in natural deposits of clay and silt. The

Atomic Energy Commission originally allowed this practice; however, later regulatory changes under the Nuclear Energy

Commission require any land disposal of radioactive materials to occur in geologically stable deposits that will remain

unaffected by groundwater for a minimum of 300 years. Groundwater occurs at a depth of approximately 12 feet below

ground at the OCWLF site had the potential to contact the wastes, as proven by groundwater contamination detected in

the 1990s. Like many colleges and universities in the 1980s, K-State applied for and received a Part B hazardous waste

treatment, storage and disposal permit under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). This prompted the

K-State to build a hazardous waste storage building directly over the capped OCWLF. K-State requested to close the

landfill to further chemical waste disposal in 1984 and official closure was granted by the KDHE BWM in 1986. Closure

of the landfill to chemical waste disposal is under the jurisdiction of the BWM, who, with the EPA, requested K-State to

perform a RCRA Facility Assessment which identified the groundwater contamination. A groundwater interceptor trench

and treatment system were installed in 2011. The treatment system uses the advanced oxidation treatment of hydrogen

peroxide and ultra-violet light to destroy recalcitrant organic chemicals. The source landfill was removed in 2012 with

disposal at a facility permitted to accept radiological and hazardous wastes.

Tasks completed by Allied to date for the OCWLF have included:

1. Determine the nature and extent of groundwater contaminant plumes

2. Conduct a 2-year Monitored Natural Attenuation (MNA) Evaluation

3. Determine the location and extent of the disposal area (by probing and geophysical survey)

4. Complete a Background Radiation Survey

5. Complete a Corrective Measure Implementation & Decommissioning Program Plan (CMIDP plan) under the

RCRA Corrective Action Plan (CAP) requirements and the MARSSIM guidance for the radiation issues.

6. Implement the CMIDP, initially by designing, fabricating and installing a groundwater treatment system to control

and treat the multi-contaminant groundwater plumes.

7. Perform a waste characterization study by excavating test pits in the OCWLF and revise the CMIDP plan based

on results.

8. Remove the Source, excavation and disposal of the OCWLF at a disposal facility permitted for radioactive and

hazardous waste, followed by site clearance/decommissioning.

9. Perform post-source-removal groundwater assessment and monitoring.

To date, all tasks associated with the OCWLF have been on time and on budget.




Kansas State University - Old Chemical Waste Landfill Treatment System

Installed 155 foot long and 20 foot deep interceptor

trench, Allied provided all sub-contractor services for in-

stallation. Required disposal of contaminated soil as

special waste to a local municipal solid waste landfill.

Installed a GAC-UV-H2O2 treatment system. Primary con-

stituent of concern - 1,4-Dioxane. Discharge to the City of

Manhattan sanitary sewer. The city required an effective-

ness study after startup, prior to connection. Treatment sys-

tem is capable of reducing 1,4-Dioxane from values above

10,000 ppb to non-detect.



Kansas State University - Old Chemical Waste Landfill Excavation

Required Strict adherence to Hazardous

Waste Operations Standards

Level C PPE with air purifying respirators.

Continuous monitoring of volatile chemicals

and radiation.

7,573 tons of heavily contaminated debris and

soil shipped to Utah via 435 rail gondolas, re-

quired extensive logistics management.

2,747 tons of soil disposed under special

waste authorization for residual contamination.

Final excavation: 142 feet by 225 feet by 18

feet deep

Final disposal: 10,320 tons

Turnkey removal, management and disposal

less than $6MM (2012 dollars), not including

investigation.

Groundwater UV treatment system effectively

destroys 1,4-Dioxane from >10,000 ppb to

less than 2 ppb. Effluent to sanitary sewer.

Allied was prime contractor and contracted

and managed all sub-contractors/consultants.




HollyFrontier Corporation Landfill Cover Turnkey Services

HollyFrontier Refinery, El Dorado, Kansas

From Skelly Oil to Texaco and eventually to the HollyFrontier Corporation, a refinery has operated on the south side of the

City of El Dorado, Kansas since the early 1900s. Refineries of this age have had many waste management practices includ-

ing landfilling still bottoms and solid residues from tank cleaning. HollyFrontier retained Allied to complete the task of pre-

paring a final design and provide earthwork services to place a cover on an industrial waste landfill idled in the 1990s. The

landfill began operations as a landfarm and eventually was used for the disposal of non-hazardous industrial solid waste

consisting of oily soils, activated wastewater treatment sludge, and delisted API separator sludge.

To provide our turnkey services, AEC assembled an experienced team of engineers, geologists, surveyors, and landfill con-

struction specialists. Our team included resources from four firms: AEC, CDH, Inc. (earthwork), Geotechnical Services, Inc.

(drilling/soils testing), and MKEC for surveying support, all experienced in landfill design, construction, operation, closure,

and solid-waste regulatory compliance. This team completed work in accordance with a Construction Quality Assurance

Plan approved by the State of Kansas, Department of Health and Environment (KDHE), lead agency for the RCRA closure.

The USEPA was also interested in seeing the landfill properly closed as they had placed the facility on the RCRA 2020 list.

The Master Services Agreement was executed May 24, 2012.

Soil testing with geotechnical analysis, design and regulatory

review/approval of the design allowed for construction to begin

in November 2012. Hydro-seeding occurred in January 2013,

and the KDHE accepted closure February 18, 2013. The

closed landfill has entered post-closure care. The final con-

struction value was over $680,000 (2013 dollars).

The inactive landfill covered approximately 6

acres (left) and some waste had to be re-

moved from an adjacent pipeline right-of-way.

The RCRA cover design prepared by AEC

accounted for this and resulted in a slightly

higher elevation, but smaller footprint.

The landfill received an 18-inch thick layer of

low permeability clay and a top 12-inch thick

layer of top soil to support vegetation. AEC

specified hydro-seeding to establish grass

(below).
