Services
Environmental Site Assessments
We conduct comprehensive Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs) for commercial, industrial, and agricultural properties. Our assessments follow ASTM standards and EPA guidelines to identify potential environmental risks. We provide timely recommendations to help property owners make informed decisions during transactions.
Chemical Release Investigations
We investigate fuel and chemical releases through subsurface characterization and risk assessment. Our team coordinates with regulatory agencies to develop conceptual site models and remediation strategies. We use advanced techniques like cone penetrometer testing and vapor intrusion studies to assess contamination extent.
Drinking Water Systems
We design and manage groundwater-based drinking water systems for schools, businesses, and communities. Our services include system engineering, operations, and regulatory compliance. We hold state certifications for drinking water distribution system operation at the D2 and T2 levels.
Stormwater Monitoring
We develop Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPPs) and provide compliance monitoring for industrial and construction sites. Our services ensure regulatory compliance while protecting water quality. We assist with sampling, reporting, and regulatory coordination.
Remediation System Design
We design cost-effective remediation systems using technologies like air sparging and soil vapor extraction. Our feasibility studies identify optimal cleanup strategies for contaminated sites. We prepare detailed corrective action plans for regulatory approval and implementation.
