Contaminated Sites Management

Property owners, land managers, governments, and lending institutions all have a stake in ensuring that soil, vapour, and water (surface and groundwater) are not contaminated from historical or on-going activities.  Associated Environmental works with these groups to identify contamination hazards and develop practical programs to remediate sites and manage risks. Our team has experience throughout the remediation life-cycle, from Environmental Assessments, to monitoring and compliance, to cleanup and site-closure. 

We offer a contaminated sites team with combined expertise in soils, groundwater, environmental chemistry, toxicology, hazardous building materials, and engineering to assist clients with regulatory obligations and add value to their properties. 

Associated Environmental's Services include:

• Phase I and II (Stage 1, 2) Environmental Site Assessments (ESA)
• Detailed Site Assessments (Phase III ESAs)
• Contaminated Soil and Water Management Plans and Strategies
• Environmental Monitoring and Compliance
• Risk Assessment (screening level and detailed quantitative risk assessments)
• Remediation Planning, Supervision and Management
• Hazardous Building Material Surveys (Designated Substance Surveys)
• Tank (AST and UST) removal inspections

    • I enjoy all things hydrogeological from developing water supplies to dealing with contaminated mine water, but particularly groundwater and surface water interactions, their impacts, and how they can be minimised or mitigated.
