Lucrative disposal

Security Environmental Systems Inc. said it has been awarded a $1-million contract to move and dispose of hazardous waste generated at Army bases in Albany and Ft. Benning, Ga. Security Environmental specializes in hazardous waste disposal.

The Huntington Beach company also said its two-year contract for waste removal at Camp Pendleton has been extended for up to 12 months. Security Environmental said it has earned $5.4 million from that contract.

The company recently sold its core medical waste business to Browning-Ferris Industries Inc. to concentrate further on its hazardous waste transportation operations.
