Aircraft Crash Hazmat Response on Bending Chestnut Rd | Enviro Medics
On May 16, 2024, the Enviro Medics Emergency Spill Response Team was dispatched to Bending Chestnut Road in Franklin, Tennessee Franklin for a crashed aircraft. This incident spanned a wide and complex debris field, requiring multi-day operations and coordinated efforts with several responding agencies.
From the moment our team arrived, they were challenged with multiple leak sources, areas of fuel and oil contamination, and several hard-to-access spill zones on both ground and water. Aircraft crashes create diverse environmental hazards, and containment must be executed quickly to prevent migration into soil, waterways, and drainage systems.
Our technicians—trained beyond industry standards and equipped with industry-leading capabilities—worked tirelessly across multiple sectors of the scene. The Enviro Medics crew:
Contained active leaks from the aircraft
Established spill containment areas across rugged terrain
Treated waterways impacted by debris and petroleum runoff
Coordinated with partner agencies to maintain environmental safety
Operated continuously over several days to stabilize the site
Despite the scale of this tragic incident, our responders demonstrated professionalism, resilience, and the technical expertise required to manage complex environmental hazards.
