Malcolm Pirnie - Remediation

Remediation

SOLUTIONS FOR:

Effective and affordable site cleanup.

Site remediation means many things to many people — removing pollutants from soil or groundwater, addressing leaking underground or aboveground storage tanks, cleaning up active industrial facilities, or restoring abandoned (Brownfield) sites for redevelopment. Each remediation scenario presents a unique array of technical and regulatory issues that must be balanced in the most cost-effective and practical manner.

Our Approach

Malcolm Pirnie combines the technical knowledge and regulatory expertise of nearly 1,700 professionals nationwide who have the local knowledge to evaluate hazardous and other wastes — then select, design and implement the most appropriate remediation strategy.

We offer a full arsenal of investigative tools and analytical techniques to model the fate and transport of contaminants in soils, groundwater, surface water, sediments and air. We will investigate your property, buildings and debris for the presence of asbestos, lead-based paint and other regulated substances, and use risk-assessment techniques to evaluate the impact of any contaminants on human health and environmental receptors.

To remove organic and inorganic chemical impacting from the subsurface, our geologists, hydrogeologists and environmental engineers go beyond traditional “dig and haul” strategies. By employing innovative approaches — such as barrier technologies, chemical oxidation, bioremediation and phytoremediation — we can help you reduce your costs and cut operations and maintenance requirements. We are adept at forging multi-stakeholder strategies that manage materials in place, often coupled with appropriate redevelopment.

Our regulatory specialists — well-versed in programs such as CERCLA (Superfund), RCRA and state-level rules — can help ensure your site’s compliance with applicable standards and assist in negotiated voluntary cleanups. And, our environmental forensics experts have helped clients save millions of dollars in erroneously assigned liability.

The result is a site with the right answer — even if it was once host to a complex brew of substances — achieved by scientifically valid and field-proven remediation strategies that meet both budgetary and regulatory requirements.

Proven Experience

We have delivered numerous solutions to mitigate the long-term environmental and health risks associated with chemicals released to the environment — ranging from relatively simple tank/drum removal to complex, multi-contaminant and multimedia remediation programs. Here are a few highlights:
