If you ever want to see the most irate people on the planet just talk to some of the people who are in an area where bio removal is being done. Often, they will say how come we were not warned of all this and they will want to sue. Bio removal projects need to maintain a strong communication line between the local community and the local newspapers and other media.
Residents need to understand what is going on and they do not like surprises. A robust public relations program and community goodwill communication chain needs to be established for all bio removal projects. Just like employees at a corporation deserve to know what kind of chemicals they are working around, people who are living around or working around bio removal projects also deserve to know what is going on.
They deserve to know how this stuff got there in the first place, why it became contaminated, what is being done and where are all that stuff is being taken. There are many ways that a bio removal project can keep the citizenry in the local region informed.
It is important to hire a public relations specialist who understands the industry and has worked with crisis management situations in the past to handle the communication stream between the removal project and the citizens, as well as deal with the media to prevent hysteria from taking place. Please consider all this in 2006.
