We deliver site-specific Remediation and Cleanup solutions to address environmental contamination and achieve regulatory closure. Our approach combines technical expertise, regulatory insight, and cost-effective strategies to manage contamination risks, restore site integrity, and ensure compliance with environmental standards.
-
Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RF/FS): We develop a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS), a critical process to assess contamination and identify the best strategies for remediation. The Remedial Investigation (RI) phase involves collecting data to characterize site conditions, determine the nature and extent of contamination, and evaluate risks to human health and the environment. It includes field investigations, sampling, and the development of a Conceptual Site Model (CSM) to understand exposure pathways. The Feasibility Study (FS) phase focuses on developing, screening, and evaluating potential remedial actions. It considers factors like effectiveness, cost, and long-term sustainability. Alternatives may include institutional controls, monitored natural attenuation, chemical treatments, or excavation, depending on site-specific conditions.
-
Soil and Groundwater Remediation: We develop and implement targeted strategies to remove, treat, or contain contaminants in soil and groundwater. This may include in-situ methods (e.g., bioremediation, chemical oxidation, soil vapor extraction) or ex-situ techniques (e.g., excavation, pump-and-treat systems). Each approach is selected based on site-specific conditions such as contaminant type, hydrogeology, and regulatory requirements to ensure effective and sustainable remediation.
-
Contaminant Transport Modeling: We use advanced numerical and analytical models to simulate how contaminants migrate through soil and groundwater over time. These models help predict future plume behavior, assess potential exposure pathways, and support the design of effective remediation systems. Modeling also aids in risk communication with stakeholders and regulatory agencies by visualizing contaminant movement and potential impacts.
-
Riak Assessment & Cleanup Verification: Our team conducts human health and ecological risk assessments to evaluate the potential impacts of contamination on people and the environment. These assessments guide cleanup goals and help prioritize remedial actions. After remediation, we perform cleanup verification sampling and data analysis to confirm that site conditions meet regulatory standards and that no unacceptable risks remain.
-
Site Closure: We prepare and submit all required documentation to demonstrate compliance with environmental regulations and support site closure. This includes remedial action plans, progress reports, sampling and analysis plans, and closure reports. We also coordinate with regulatory agencies to ensure that all cleanup activities are properly documented and approved, facilitating timely and successful site closure.
-
Remedial Cost Evaluation: We provide detailed cost evaluations to support budgeting, planning, and decision-making for environmental remediation projects. This includes estimating capital and operational expenses for various cleanup alternatives, considering factors such as contaminant type and extent, site conditions, regulatory requirements, and long-term monitoring needs. Our evaluations incorporate life-cycle cost analysis, risk-based cost scenarios, and sensitivity analyses to help clients select the most cost-effective and technically feasible remediation strategy. We also assist with funding strategies, grant applications, and cost recovery documentation when applicable.
