DBES has successfully bid the contract for Hazardous Waste Transportation and Disposal Services for the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), for its Southern California Installations. DBES will begin the contract later this month and will be covering military installations from Santa Barbara County to Orange County, CA. We are excited about this new opportunity and look forward to our new relationship with the DLA.

DBES personnel responded to a combination gasoline/diesel tanker spill that threatened the Santa Ana River and the associated water shed. DBES personnel worked through the Month of May to recover and collect product along the banks of Cold Creek, a tributary of the Santa Ana River. The response effort swelled to over 40 responders and included working through the Memorial holiday.  DBES has completed all active operations including restoration and reconstruction of the creek wash but will continue to conduct passive recovery efforts and monitoring through the summer.

DBES hosted the Southern Nevada Traffic Incident Management Meeting this past month.  Follow the link for details!
