Stabilized Biosolids for Quarry Reclamation – Demonstration Project
“ a project that combines Industrial Waste with Human Waste to produce a beneficial product that can be used to reclaim exhausted rock quarries”
Presented by:
M.D. Of Bighorn
Hugh Pettigrew C.E.T
Director of Operations
As the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification program grows and evolves, so too does the need to understand the fit of a wide range of effective materials and processes to meet LEED certification requirements. As product use alone does not provide LEED points, the information in this just-released white paper focuses on identifying the LEED categories and options where pumice and pumice-enhanced products from Hess Pumice can be valuable contributors to the goal of LEED certification.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Wet contaminated soil was mixed with fly ash in a solidification pit constructed by SCS before being hauled off-site. Roughly 2,500 tons of petroleum impacted soil was then excavated and hauled off-site. Backfilling was completed and topsoil was spread back over the construction work area and restored to its original profile. Project: SSA 6109 Location: Indianapolis, IN Excavation and hauling of 6,450 tons of petroleum contaminated soil Backfilling was completed and topsoil was spread back over the construction work area and restored to its original profile. Project: Marathon Unit 202162 Location: Peru, IN Excavation and hauling of 9,560 tons of petroleum impacted soil Installation of 570 linear feet of groundwater interceptor trench Backfilling was completed and topsoil was spread back over the construction work area and restored to its original profile.

The top of the rock was at 10 feet for each location After a 10’ core run was completed the barrel was removed and the rock was removed from the barrel. It was then reinserted back in the boring and the boring was completed to depth. After the core barrel was removed and emptied, the tricone bit was reinserted and the boring was reamed to the total depth of the core hole. Following the reaming a two inch PVC monitoring well was installed and completed as an above ground well Project: Manufacturing Facility Location: Greensburg, Indiana Remedial cleanup of chlorinated solvents Over 100 borings with the Geoprobe 6620 using conventional split spoon hollow stem auguring techniques to depths of 20-30 feet Borings included installation of electrical heating resistance electrode wells, pressure monitoring points, as well as double cased monitoring well Confirmation samples reached temperatures well over 100 degrees, making typically acetate liner techniques impracticable Project Experience Cont.
