Lock coating with lead abatement and climate control

The Okeechobee Inland Waterway connects the Atlantic Ocean with the Gulf of Mexico, allowing boats to pass through Florida from the city of Stuart on the east coast through Lake Okeechobee to Fort Myers on the west. Along this 152-mile waterway are five locks, which allow the vessels traveling through to ascend as much as 13 feet at a single lift. Along with navigation, the waterway has been built to provide Florida citizens with multiple benefits of reduced flood damage, environmental protection, and recreation.

Water disaster at LA Courthouse

Experts estimated that nearly one million gallons of water gushed out of a broken water main and across the first floor of the Los Angeles Federal Courthouse before it found its way to the building’s basement. When the flooding stopped, much of the first-floor office space was severely damaged and the 70,000-square-foot basement had four feet of standing water. Lower locations, such as the elevator shaft and the building power vault, had much deeper water. To make matters worse, the flood-damaged power vault housed transformers that supplied power to the city for blocks around.

Saving Water-Damaged X-Rays with Innovative Drying System

When disaster struck at Carilion Franklin Memorial Hospital, it seemed like a horrendous rainstorm had engulfed the facility. A burst water line flooded the hospital's file storage area and approximately 800,000 crucial x-ray images were in jeopardy. In the face of this challenging situation, hospital staff called on Polygon to preserve and recover the damaged materials.

Data center pipe break threatens equipment

“It’s hard to imagine $100 million of computer equipment; but should you stand at one end of our computer center, you can barely see the other side.” That’s how Ted Turner, Hewlett Packard facility manager, described the new Atlanta operations center.
