Business Wire
Tetra Tech, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTEK), a leading provider of high-end
consulting and engineering services, announced today that the U.S.
Army Engineering Support Center, Huntsville, has selected the
Company for a multiple-award, five-year, $800 million indefinite
delivery, indefinite quantity contract to remove and replace
aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) containing per- and
poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from fire suppression systems at
installations throughout the United States.
For decades AFFF has been used in facility fire suppression
systems and fire training facilities. Although extremely effective,
AFFF is a major source of PFAS contamination that has been shown to
be toxic to human and animal health, is persistent in the
environment, and has the potential for bioaccumulation. Tetra
Tech’s industry-leading environmental management experts will apply
best practices from past successful AFFF remediation and removal
projects to safely identify, recover, evaluate, assess,
decontaminate, and dispose of AFFF containing PFAS. Our teams will
evaluate the use of innovative technologies, including Tetra Tech’s
proprietary PFAScrub® cleaning agent and performance verification
methods, to remove residual PFAS from the interior of fire
suppression systems to minimize cross contamination from legacy
AFFF systems.
“Tetra Tech has supported the U.S. Department of Defense for
decades to safely address potentially harmful chemicals at its
bases and in the surrounding environment,” said Dan Batrack, Tetra
Tech Chairman and CEO. “We look forward to using our Leading with
Science® approach to support the proactive removal and replacement
of AFFF containing PFAS in firefighting systems, keeping our
servicemembers safe and preventing future environmental
contamination and cleanup.”
