About Emergency Management and Safety
At EMR we pride ourselves on being able to respond quickly to our customers’ emergencies, regardless of where or when they happen. EMR provides the quick response that can only be provided by in-house emergency response capabilities for major and minor spills, storms, derailments and other incidents. We also maintain an extensive network of contractors, which gives us the ability to increase staff and equipment levels for events that exceed our in-house capabilities.
EMR has provided field services to our customers throughout our 24 year history, including FEMA funded projects in response to natural and industrial disasters with proven rapid response capabilities for help when and where it’s needed. We have the ability to manage emergencies from the initial phone call through reconstruction and restoration, including permitting, repairing and restoring disaster interrupted infrastructure, providing temporary or permanent structures and facilities, and sampling and remediation services.
