Vistra Corp is beginning a year-long cleanup of a battery facility in Moss Landing after a major fire caused the site to halt operations for months. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Vistra Corp have agreed on a plan that includes more than 30 safety measures. These measures involve monitoring batteries with thermal cameras and conducting air quality checks. Cleanup efforts will focus on handling hundreds of pounds of battery modules while prioritizing worker and community safety. The project might take a year due to the scale of the facility and the number of damaged batteries.
The procedures all contain some sort of safety component - while the batteries are being handled, they're being monitored by the thermal cameras,
We just really wanted to emphasize also that it prioritizes worker safety, community needs and environmental protection,
Vistra is required to implement air monitoring and air sampling around the site during demolition.
Due to the scale of the facility and the 100,000 damaged batteries inside, cleanup could take a year.
