Vapor Intrusion Mitigation
Our vapor intrusion mitigation services combine advanced monitoring techniques with customized remediation strategies. We conduct comprehensive assessments using sub-slab sampling and flux chamber measurements to identify contaminant pathways. Our team develops site-specific mitigation systems that prevent harmful vapors from entering buildings while maintaining regulatory compliance. With over a decade of specialized experience, we provide both short-term emergency solutions and long-term monitoring programs for residential and industrial properties.
Mobile Lab Services
Our mobile laboratory provides real-time analysis of volatile organic compounds and petroleum hydrocarbons at field locations. Capable of achieving detection limits meeting NY and NJ regulatory standards, the lab supports vapor intrusion investigations and remediation projects. The service enables immediate data-driven decisions through on-site soil gas and indoor air quality testing, reducing project timelines while maintaining analytical accuracy for compounds like TCE, PCE, and methane.
LSRP Services
Our Licensed Site Remediation Professionals manage complex environmental projects from assessment to closure. Services include developing remedial action workplans, overseeing field investigations, and coordinating regulatory submissions. With expertise in ISRA compliance and Brownfield redevelopment, our LSRPs provide technical guidance for soil and groundwater remediation, ensuring projects meet NJDEP requirements while minimizing client liability.
Perimeter Air Monitoring
We design and implement perimeter air monitoring programs following NJDEP technical guidance. Our systematic approach includes strategic placement of monitoring equipment, real-time data collection during remediation activities, and comprehensive analysis of contaminant migration patterns. The service protects public health by identifying potential off-site impacts and informing mitigation decisions through continuous air quality assessment during environmental remediation projects.
Soil Testing
Our soil testing services include comprehensive laboratory analysis and field assessments for environmental contaminants. Using advanced sampling techniques, we identify hazardous substances in soil matrices and determine appropriate remediation strategies. The service supports Phase II environmental site assessments, Brownfield redevelopment projects, and regulatory compliance efforts with accurate data on soil composition and contamination levels across residential and industrial sites.
