Engineering/Site Remediation


The ultimate goal of any site remediation program is site closure.  Closure can be obtained by simple regulatory approval of current conditions warranting no further action; or by employing restoration activities until cleanup levels are obtained.  Closure involves inter-relationships between regulatory agency (ies), responsible parties, and the community.  Regulatory agency approval must be obtained that indicates the appropriate actions have been taken to effectively abate the release and/or liabilities or encumbrances related to the release have been limited.

GEM uses a multi-disciplinary team of professionals to manage the restoration of sites impacted by environmental releases and provide cost-effective closure of a site.  We design cost-effective alternatives for the storage, disposal, and cleanup of hazardous and low-level radioactive wastes.

GEM professionals are trained and responsive to regulatory and client's requirements.  We advise them on critical decisions during each of the major stages of a restoration project.  GEM is equally comfortable with turnkey approaches to site restoration following either the RCRA or Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) protocols subject to regulatory agency concurrence/approval.
