COAL Combustion Residuals (CCR)

The United States has 2 billion cubic yards of Coal Combustion Residuals (CCR) contained within tailings and/or waste storage facilities across the country that is swaying public and political opinion.

NewFields has worked on over 50 CCR sites helping our clients design, remediate, manage construction and provide support in various types of litigation.
