Hazardous Material Investigation Bureau
In an effort to minimize the risk of regulatory enforcement against the NMDOT, cost overruns, and in support of worker safety, the Hazardous Materials Investigation Bureau (HMIB) maintains four programs:
The Hazardous Materials Investigation Program – the HMIB identifies and assesses hazardous material-related conditions for their impact on NMDOT construction projects.
The Underground Storage Tank Remediation Program – the HMIB manages the monitoring and remediation of fuel releases on properties owned by the Department.
Technical Assistance Program – the HMIB offers regulatory and investigation assistance to NMDOT offices on non-project related concerns.
TLPA Assistance Program – Provides investigation guidance to municipalities and tribal governments for their own transportation projects.
