entire school water systems, petroleum and gas facilities and flow meters. We
have also performed the excavation, handling, and/or remediation of more than 500,000 tons of various types of contaminated
soil. We can provide turnkey general construction and electrical work for the

Training
Our field management and environmental labor forces have received
OSHA training in accordance with 29 CFR 1910 and our staff closely monitors and schedules refresher classes as required. In addition, our employees possess DOT, CPR, First Aid, and confined space training
necessary for environmental, electrical and construction project scenarios. Additional
professional training dealing with the removal, maintenance and installation of UST’s and AST’s are provided to
our employees through equipment manufacturers. Likewise, where necessary, our
field personnel are involved in an on-going medical monitoring program to meet federal, state and project requirements.

Our safety record is flawless with safety an
integral part of our daily operation. Our work is performed "by the book," and short cuts and common practices not recognized
by the construction, electrical or petroleum industry are strictly forbidden. We rely heavily on the National Electrical Code,
State of Hawaii UST Technical Guidance Manual, the American Petroleum Institute’s and the Petroleum Equipment Institute’s
"Recommended Practices and Procedures," as well as the local county Fire Departments.

FOPCO Fleet and Equipment
Our equipment and vehicles are new and well maintained. To preclude delays
and frustrations inherent with rental equipment, we own our major excavation equipment (Excavators & Backhoes) as well
as extensive support equipment. We employ a full-time mechanic to ensure our
equipment is in optimum operating condition.
Administration
Our management, financial and administrative
staff are equipped with the latest in computer hardware and software, which are instrumental in the generation of accurate
and timely reports and correspondence. Our office automation is supported by
an outside firm which ensures our systems are continuously maintained and updated with the newest innovations. The highly respected accounting firm of Erwin, Cabrinha & Au, Certified Public Accountants and the
Law Offices of Stubenberg and Durrett also support us.
During the past seventeen years, FOPCO has enjoyed excellent growth and
success. We are confident this success has been and will continue to be, a direct
reflection of customer satisfaction and our commitment to our employees, suppliers, subcontractors and supporters. If you have any questions or wish to discuss the services available, please do not hesitate to contact
