Menomonee Falls, WI

The Veolia Environmental Services Controlled Waste Division (VES-CWD) is a 10-acre facility located north of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. VeoliaES-CWD possesses a Part B Permit, issued in June of 1988, for RCRA drum and bulk storage of liquids and solids. VeoliaES-CWD also offers stabilization/fixation of certain RCRA hazardous solids, which are ultimately disposed at an approved land disposal facility, and a labpack depack and bulking process. Although VeoliaES-CWD is not considered a final disposal facility, it is an integral key to VES’ success in servicing its customers.

VeoliaES-CWD is capable of treating up to 1,500 cubic yards of material requiring stabilization in a given week. Characteristically hazardous wastes, which require stabilization, are treated via a chemical process where approved reagents are added to waste in predetermined ratios to render it non-hazardous. All de-characterized residuals are tested to ensure treatment to specified levels. Non-hazardous treatment residuals are disposed at Veolia-owned facilities, located nearby the VeoliaES-CWD complex. By utilizing a Subtitle D landfill, the de-characterized residuals are not commingled with hazardous wastes, thereby reducing the customer's risk of future environmental action.

VeoliaES-CWD is capable of storing and processing up to 800 drums and 60 rolloff boxes of hazardous waste. During the storage process, hazardous wastes are tested, pre-approved and accepted for on site processing or eventual off-site disposal. Bulk quantities of non-reactive, solid hazardous wastes are stored in a lugger/rolloff storage unit. Non-hazardous liquid wastes are accepted in bulk and drum containers. These wastes can be solidified and ultimately disposed at a Veolia-owned facilities. Empty containers are crushed and disposed in the same manner or sent off-site for reconditioning.
