WESTON in the News

March 2006

March 1st Named After WESTON Project in Fulton County, GA

To the residents of Fulton County, Georgia, the first day of March means more than just the start of a new month and the possibility that spring is just around the corner.

This year, Commissioner Bill Edwards, Director of Solid Waste Anthony Spencer, and Assistant Director of Public Works Richard Coates honored Weston Solutions, Inc. (WESTON^®) for its work on landfill contracts in Fulton County by proclaiming March 1st “Merk/Miles Road Landfill GCCS Design/Build Team Appreciation Day.”

WESTON’s contributions, commitment, and success on the Fulton County Landfill contracts were instrumental in addressing and remediating environmental issues, and in meeting a Georgia Environmental Protection Division-mandated deadline for completing a new gas collection and control system (GCCS) for the Merk/Miles Road Landfill.

WESTON is the first company in the United States to use directional boring on a landfill site, which helped the team meet strict deadlines by streamlining the construction of nearly three miles of buried pipe.

Spencer stated, “WESTON had one of the best on-site managers [Lance Crain] I’ve ever seen! The directional boring technology was very successful. We will call on WESTON in the future with problems.”
