ter Horizon oil spill, Hurricane Sandy recovery efforts,
and numerous high profile, high stakes projects such
as chemical factory explosions, train derailments, avi-
ation disasters, major energy infrastructure projects,
and international environmental crises.
It is not, however, simply the notable environmental
calamities that MEG works to ameliorate. “Our servic-
es break down to be fifty percent emergency spill re-
sponse and fifty percent industrial cleaning and main-
tenance type work. “It happens every day,” Wallace
continues. “I can look at my call log from last night
and find a number of customer calls for emergency
spill response support.” In 2014, MEG responded to a
substantial Submarine Power Cable oil spill where the
cable was damaged by a large anchor from a vessel.
In this case the oil spill was but one component of a
large scale marine support project. MEG provided div-
ers and submarine excavation equipment to unearth
the cable, locate the leak, and secure the leak with a
clamp. “This is a specialty service that our customers
have come to rely on MEG’s knowledge, experience,
and specialized equipment over the history of the
company.”
MEG also provides Environmental Remediation, Ma-
rine Services, Waste Transportation and Disposal,
Restoration, Training and Compliance, and Portable
Services. In addition the Greenway Environmental
Management division of MEG provides geothermal
and alternative energy services to commercial, munici-
pal, and residential customers in order to help them
save on their energy bills.
