A large fuel oil spill into Toronto’s West Don River activated Accuworx ER assets as we were hired to respond, contain and remediate the spill. Kevin Solski, Accuworx Corporate Health and Safety Manager, was instrumental in liasoning with all relevant authorities and ensuring that all our crew worked safely. Kevin is the former EHS Manager of Auburn Industrial (an international service provider in the Mining industry) and holds a degree of Bachelor of Applied Science in Occupational Health and Safety from Ryerson University.
Due to the West Don River experiencing swift river currents during the clean up operations and the fluctuating water levels that are taking place, Kevin developed policies and procedures in conjunction with the Ministry of Labour that facilitated our employees to safely recover the fuel oil from the river and also clean the contaminated vegetation on the shoreline.
