Contaminated Soil Management
For over 27 years, Nelson has been a leading provider of site remediation services, specializing in the treatment and management of impacted soil. They have completed hundreds of projects and treated millions of tonnes of soil, offering a comprehensive range of services to meet project needs.
With Nelson's background in soil remediation, the vision is to expand operations at Mill Bay to incorporate soil remediation components, including bringing thermal soil treatment technology to Vancouver Island and offering expertise to address local environmental issues.
Nelson's Direct-Fired and Indirect-Fired Thermal Desorption Systems treat hydrocarbon-impacted soils, removing liability and allowing soils to be cleaned and reused. Indirect thermal units also produce biochar, a valuable soil amendment.
Location & Access
Located along the Malahat Drive corridor, our facility provides excellent connectivity between the Capital Regional District and the rest of Vancouver Island, offering central positioning and logistical advantages for businesses requiring efficient soil disposal and remediation services.
Road Access
The site is easily accessible via dedicated merge lanes and off-ramps along the Trans-Canada Highway, with both northbound and southbound exits nearby. These convenient transportation links enable efficient movement of materials and equipment.
Barge Access
Proximity to barge facilities at Bamberton provides an alternative transportation option for larger volume soil transfers from coastal and island locations.
