Non-hazardous
wastewater from off-site generators
NewStream is able to accept
non-hazardous wastewater (see definitions below) via truck or rail car. We
handle treatment and discharge, as well as sludge disposal. The facility's
convenient location (off of I-95, less than 25 miles from both Boston and
Providence , RI) and accessibility make NewStream an ideal choice.
Hazardous and non-hazardous wastewater from on-site generators
On site wastewater generators are able to pump their wastewater directly
to NewStream and know that it is being expertly handled.
