Earth Day, celebrated on April 22, is a global event focused on raising awareness about environmental issues and promoting environmental action.
The day originated in 1970, inspired by a 1969 oil spill. Today, Earth Day is celebrated in over 190+ countries.
The success of the first Earth Day led to the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the US.

A client recently hired SCE to investigate a release of chlorinated solvents at their dry cleaning facility.
SCE conducted the investigation as follows:
• Mapped sewer lines
• Evaluated the existing vapor mitigation system
• Collected soil vapor samples from beneath the basement floor
• Sampled indoor and outdoor ambient air chemistry
• Assessed utility migration pathways by sampling air and water within sanitary sewer lines
The techniques and equipment included the following:
• Installed sub-slab vapor probes and Cox-Colvin vapor pin samplers
• Installed a temporary soil gas probe in a borehole constructed by a Geoprobe® hydraulic push rig
• Collected vapor samples using Summa canisters, Radiello 130 ambient air samplers, and Waterloo membrane sample tubes
SCE’s investigation satisfied WDNR requirements and the results indicated that sanitary sewer lines are not a significant migration pathway at the site. One step closer to case closure for this site.
