Risk Management

Risk Management

Our extensive expertise in risk management for contaminated sites is grounded in a thorough understanding of the risk assessment paradigm. We recognize that risk from chemical contamination involves the presence of a toxic substance, a receptor, and an active exposure pathway. By implementing risk-based approaches, we create site-specific remediation guidelines that are often less stringent than generic ones, allowing for more efficient and cost-effective site management while ensuring the same level of human health and environmental protection.

Effective environmental risk management requires precise delineation of site contaminants and a comprehensive grasp of exposure mechanisms, regulatory requirements, and exposure controls. Our team excels in developing realistic estimates of potential risks, contextualizing them, and determining appropriate mitigation actions.

With extensive experience in investigating contaminated sites and crafting conceptual site models, our environmental specialists are adept at conducting human health and ecological risk assessments, as well as analyzing remedial options. We implement targeted remedial and risk control measures for soil, soil vapor, and groundwater contamination, ensuring thorough and effective management of environmental risks associated with commercial and industrial developments.
