 Our greatest resource has always been our people and we will continue to focus on the health and safety of the Summit Team, their families, our customers and the communities in which we work.The very nature of our business includes significant “working alone” projects and associated policies and procedures. We have updated strict COVID-19 measures to ensure our Summit Team is ready to respond safely whether working alone or in teams for any existing or new requests including, including spill response or regulated work which must continue through these times. We encourage you to “Stay in Touch” and continue to communicate with our team of professionals and are committed to safely working through these times
