OTTAWA, Nov. 9, 2017 /CNW/ - BluMetric Environmental Inc.
(TSXV: BLM) is pleased to announce that an Ontario mining client has issued change orders
to two of BluMetric's existing contracts for a combined increase of
more than $2 million.
The first change order, extending work that was previously
announced (press release dated September 28,
2016) includes drilling and engineering to support the
design of a barrier wall, reservoir, pump-house, and pipeline for
collection and management of impacted water. This work begins
immediately.
The second change order is for remedial assessment for
technologies including barrier walls, cut-off walls, dams, and
trenches, relying on some geophysics as non-intrusive
investigation. This work includes a pilot study for an
innovative Permeable Reactive Barrier, which BluMetric will design,
install, and monitor for two years. If this pilot is
successful, similar barriers may be deployed at multiple locations
to treat impacted groundwater, saving the client millions of
dollars in comparison with more traditional remedial
approaches.
"These awards reflect the strong relationship that BluMetric has
with this client, as well as the growth in the array of services we
are able to offer," said Rich
Schmidt, Client Manager and Senior Hydrogeologist. "We have
consistently delivered high-quality services anchored in our
practical and insightful use of innovative remedial technologies
well-suited for their particular needs. We reliably and
cost-effectively solve their problems."
"I am impressed by the rapidly expanding volume of work that our
consulting services group does for long-term clients and the trust
that these clients have in our team," said Roger Woeller, BluMetric's CEO. "Moreover, this
new work not only reinforces the value of relationships in this
business, but highlights our ability to create differentiated,
customized products and services, which is fundamental to our
approach and strategy."
