Our team of construction & demolition professionals are always happy to speak with you and value your business. We are trained to handle any requests that you may have.
With over 20 years of experience providing demolition services in the United States, Bella Contracting Services is an expert in power plant decommissioning. Our team can handle every element of the decommissioning process, from hazardous waste management and environmental remediation to asset recovery and demolition. Whether you have a coal-fired power plant, a nuclear power plant, a steam power plant, or a hydropower plant, you can trust our team to get the job done safely.
Hazardous waste management is one of the most essential elements of facility decommissioning, especially when decommissioning nuclear power plants. Incredible care is required to limit the risk of pollution and contamination. Working with our trusted hazardous waste disposal partners, we will eliminate potential sources of contamination, including certain radioactive materials, before demolition begins.
During the deconstruction and demolition process, more waste will be produced—and some of it may be hazardous. Using radiation monitoring and other techniques, we will quarantine and dispose of any secondary hazardous materials generated during the decommissioning process
Our efforts to ensure that hazardous waste is removed during the decommissioning process simplify the site remediation process. To help with site remediation, we can put you in touch with our trusted partners; we can also assist with construction work once the site is remediated.
When it comes to power plant facility decommissioning—especially nuclear decommissioning—you need a company with a proven track record of safety.
At Bella Contracting Services, we go above and beyond standard safety protocols to keep people and property safe. We incorporate safety into every step of our process. When your power plant has reached the end of its life cycle, and you’re looking for a decommissioning partner who will keep safety as its top priority, choose Bella.
Facility assessment: We begin by conducting a thorough engineering assessment of every structure in the plant that is targeted for demolition. During this assessment, we will discuss and analyze regulations, the slated use for the property once decommissioning is completed, identify hazardous materials and environmental concerns (such as potential run-off causing water pollution), and more.
Planning: Having gathered data, our team will begin the decommissioning planning process. With a team of engineers, architects, hazardous waste specialists, and demolition specialists, we will determine which hazardous substances need to be removed before the project begins. From there, we will determine which structures can be deconstructed, and which should be demolished—typically, a combination of deconstruction, heavy machinery demolition, and explosive demolition are used on any given power plant decommissioning project.
Hazardous waste removal: Our trained professionals will locate and remove any hazardous waste, working with regulatory bodies and our trusted partners to ensure that all hazardous waste is handled and disposed of safely before demolition begins.
Deconstruction and demolition: Once waste has been removed, our team will begin dismantling, deconstructing, and demolishing structures. These activities are performed with safety as the top priority. In the case of nuclear power plants, the use of radiation dosimeters in conjunction with specialized personal protective equipment keeps our team members safe. Using cranes, power tools, and other equipment, we will deconstruct, decontaminate, and dismantle any parts of the power plant structures we can. In some cases, heavy machinery and explosives may be used to demolish structures.
Site clean-up: Once the power plant demolition and decommission process has been completed, we will clean up the site. We can also work with our trusted partners for site remediation.
From natural gas power plants to hydroelectric dams, we offer power plant decommissioning services throughout the United States. No matter where you are in the country, when your power plant facilities need to be decommissioned, you can count on Bella Contracting Services.
