Hurricane Debris Handling at All
Polk County Landfills Bul-Hed
Corporation was tasked with an Emergency Order to mobilize
equipment to all landfills in Polk County
a few hours after Hurricane Charlie hit in 2004. Task Orders

n Alcoa Ft.
Meade was a very unique remediation contract. The general scope
of work required the import and placement of 100,000 CY of sandy
material. This was the first phase of a surcharge plan
to cap an abandoned silica solids settling pond. These solids
were a by-product of the former Ft. Meade Works that manufactured
aluminum fluoride from fluorsilicic acid and alumina
trihydate. Alcoa’s safety program requirements and job
specifications exceed many contractors’ ability and record to bid
on the project. Bul-Hed Corporation was chosen for this project
because of its outstanding safety record and commitment to
developing a site specific safety plan that exceeded Alcoa’s
specifications. In addition, the contract required that the
surcharge material be placed within 60 days. The job was
closed out in 40 days.
