ENVIRONMENTAL CONTRACTORS ASSOCIATION
The Environmental Contractors Association of New York City (ECA) advances the needs of professional environmental contractors by adhering to high professional, safety, and integrity standards. Founded in 1996 by a small group of contractors, the Association has grown to include over 50 members that are committed to raising industry standards. The contractors specialize in hazardous materials removal, emergency response, asbestos removal, infectious clean-up, oil, sewage, and chemical spills, brownfields, and contaminated water and reinsulation work.
Green building has a significant impact on the environment, economy, and the overall health of communities, but sustainable building practices don’t just include new construction. The ECA’s environmental remediation services are geared specifically toward increasing the efficiency and sustainability of all new construction and retrofitting projects. Environmental remediation carries with it many benefits, including improved air and water quality, conserved natural resources, reduced operating costs, enhanced occupant comfort, and health, as well as a minimized strain on local infrastructure.
