EC Applications crew installing geosynthetic containment in the field

Decades of containment, earned in the field

EC Applications provides in-house geomembrane welding and liner installation crews across the Western US from offices in Anaheim, California; Midland, Texas; and Sparks, Nevada, with project reach coast to coast. Crews install, weld, and test to the specified material and approved project requirements, with panel, seam, and field-test records prepared for handoff.

The crews behind the containment

Our people and experience make the difference. EC Applications was founded in 2006 and works from Anaheim, California, bringing over 60 years of combined experience in the geosynthetic lining industry. Our field crews represent hundreds of years of installation work collectively, and that hands-on depth is what sets a project up to pass inspection and last in service.

Safety is measured, not asserted. Across 2022, 2023, and 2024, over roughly 596,000 hours worked, we recorded zero fatalities, zero lost work day incidents, and zero lost work days. Our Health and Safety and Injury and Illness Prevention Program runs to twelve sections covering confined space entry, fall protection, lock out and tag out, hot work, and site orientation, alongside a separate Heat Illness Prevention Program.

We engineer, fabricate, install, and maintain containment systems across the United States, coast to coast. From landfill and mining to water, wastewater, oil and gas, and tunnels, we bring the same crews and the same standards to every market we serve.

We hold two California CSLB licenses, and our teams in California, Texas, and Nevada keep critical environmental infrastructure protected nationwide.

Licensing and reach

  • CSLB License #894068
  • CSLB License #1003207
  • Project experience across the United States, coast to coast
  • Offices in Anaheim CA, Midland TX, and Sparks NV

One team across every stage

Decades of practice taught us to keep the same crews on a project from the first drawing through long-term maintenance.

01

Design and Engineering

We engineer the containment system and detail materials and seam layout for your site and spec.

02

Fabrication

Panels are custom-fabricated in-house up to 25,000 SF, with stocked off-the-shelf options when speed matters.

03

Field Installation

Our crews are the most experienced in the industry. They consistently deliver high quality installations with unparalleled customer service.

04

Maintenance

We maintain and repair systems over their service life so containment keeps performing.

Our crews, welding, and testing

EC Applications provides its own geomembrane welding and liner installation crews across the Western US from offices in Anaheim, California; Midland, Texas; and Sparks, Nevada, with project reach coast to coast. The installation scope includes panel deployment, seams, penetrations, attachments, and field testing to the approved project requirements. Welding and test methods depend on the specified material and seam configuration.

The welding procedure is selected for the material, seam detail, manufacturer's instructions, and approved project specification. HDPE fusion and extrusion welding procedures are not a universal procedure for reinforced membranes: Seaman's XR-5 sample specification, for example, describes heat or RF factory seams and hot-air field seaming. Confirm the product-specific procedure and trial-weld requirements in the installation submittal.

ECA's quality program describes destructive and nondestructive testing, including air pressure, vacuum, and spark methods where appropriate. The approved QA/QC plan sets the methods, sampling, and acceptance criteria for the material and seam detail. Numbered panels and seams connect the installed liner to layout maps, test results, and field logs. A dedicated on-site Quality Control Technician monitors installation and testing; the owner's or engineer's acceptance process remains separate.

Crews are based in California, Texas, and Nevada and mobilize nationwide, coast to coast. Published projects include reservoir liners in California and Washington, a canal liner in California, and methane barrier and fuel-storage secondary containment work in Hawaii. EC Applications holds California CSLB licenses #894068 and #1003207.
