Let's consider a scenario involving a former manufacturing facility that is undergoing a
change in ownership. During the Preliminary Assessment, our team uncovers a
suspected contamination hotspot near the loading dock. Historical records indicate that
chlorinated solvents were extensively used at this location, raising concerns about
potential soil contamination.
To assess these risks thoroughly, we initiate a Site Investigation. Our team strategically
selects sampling locations around the loading dock area and employs various methods
to collect soil samples. These samples undergo meticulous analysis in accredited
laboratories to detect contaminants such as heavy metals, petroleum hydrocarbons, or
volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Additionally, we may install groundwater
monitoring wells to evaluate potential groundwater contamination and migration
pathways.
