Whether the site is a potential property to develop, an operating facility, a retained liability, or a candidate to repurpose, we develop creative, best-value programs that use the latest proven technologies and regulatory flexibility to meet business objectives and schedules and minimize long-term compliance risk. Our practitioners have significant experience in industrial facility development, environmental permitting and planning, utilities procurement, multimedia permitting, agency negotiation and advocacy, and remediation of chlorinated solvents, petroleum hydrocarbons, and oxygenates. In the chemical and petrochemical industry, clients seek our expertise in air quality, water and wastewater, stormwater, ecological and land compliance, sustainability, remediation, and emergency response.

Geosyntec is an industry leader in remediating chlorinated-solvent impacts to groundwater using advanced in situ bioremediation techniques developed by firm personnel. We offer expertise in evaluating vapor intrusion, a critical exposure pathway that recently received heightened regulatory attention.

Manufacturing Regulations

Geosyntec practitioners offer keen understandings of current and upcoming environmental regulations and compliance requirements that apply to these industries. With our hands-on approach to these issues, coupled with our technical expertise, we can optimize the flexibilities in state and federal regulations to expedite approvals, startup, remediation, and closure. Our practitioners also design solutions that optimize redevelopment options, and we are often retained to address and manage complex challenges associated with multiparty or high-profile sites.

For example, at a former chlor-alkali NPL site in West Virginia, we worked with our client to take advantage of the Corrective Action Management Units (CAMU) Rule, which led to regulatory approval for an on-site disposal facility. This approach saved our client significant off-site disposal costs.
