Client Challenge
Over time, it can be challenging to maintain accurate and current records of every single company asset. When the 2014 West Virginia Storage Tank Act was promulgated, new requirements were placed for aboveground storage tank (AST) registration, spill prevention plans, and certified inspections, with a tight compliance timeframe. This spurred a power company to rapidly evaluate and document over 500 ASTs located at natural gas wellhead gathering facilities, compressor stations, and fractionation plants across the statewide natural gas pipeline system.
Client Challenge
An aerospace leader is managing the groundwater monitoring and sampling program within a section of a large, longstanding Superfund site, with remaining chlorinated solvent plumes. The facility owner, a leader in the aerospace industry, requested both professional hydrogeological consulting support and technical field services to achieve greater efficiencies in managing the monitoring program and optimizing remediation approaches.
Client Challenge
A global technology leader manages a multi-million-dollar remediation program across the US. These sites reflect diverse historic and current business operations with a wide range of regulatory governance, contaminant risks, and life-cycle maturity. The company has a formal program to ensure that operation, maintenance, and monitoring (OM&M) activities across this portfolio are carried out with adherence to a consistent strategy that combines continuous improvement and a focus on key performance indicators to evaluate ongoing program and project success.
Client Challenge
Elevated concentrations of chlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs) in soil remained in a former perchloroethylene (PCE) and trichloroethylene (TCE) storage area at a former chemical manufacturing plant. Achieving regulatory closure for this area of concern (AOC) under the RCRA Corrective Action program, with no further action determination in this AOC, required a targeted soil cleanup. GES was retained to evaluate potential remedial solutions and to implement a technical and cost-effective alternative.
Client Challenge
An aging groundwater treatment plant at a former chemical manufacturing facility was no longer effective due to excessive fouling, downtime, and operational expenses. The facility owner, a global chemical company, has worked closely with state regulators to bring the site into compliance, with much of the property now a natural area and environmental center. This emphasis on environmental responsibility spurred the treatment system replacement project.
Mobilizing expert field services to steward your compliance and infrastructure construction programs.
