That's it in a nutshell. The whole purpose of environmental cleanup companies is to move nasty stuff from point A to point B at a very high cost. Do not expect the media or the government to ever disclose much about point B.Whats ironic is any "special haz waste" I've ever sent out that contains oil, from say a gas station, ends up at the landfill. Its all about the paper trail, even though its been hauled off site, the company or person responsible, will always own it, even with it in a landfill.
When I worked in the oilfield we payed environmental companies big bucks to haul off tanks of contaminated substances to dispose of. We used to simply inject them into our dead wells. I found out what the environmental companies do with the stuff. They inject it into dead wells elsewhere.
