Geosyntec practitioners Rula Deeb, PhD, BCEEM, PMP; Elisabeth Hawley, PE; Seth Kellogg, PG; Chris Shores, PE; and Rachel Zajac-Fay coauthored an article in the 2024 Remediation and PFAS Market Report, a special issue of the Environmental Business Journal. The article, “Geosyntec Advances Technology & Best Practices in PFAS; Moves Early with a Dedicated Microplastics Practice,” appeared in Volume 27, Numbers 5/6 of the publication.

Rula is a Senior Principal based in California with more than 28 years of experience in private practice and academia focused on the cross-media fate and transport of emerging contaminants, including PFAS, and the remediation of complex soil and groundwater sites impacted by nonaqueous-phase liquids. She is Geosyntec’s PFAS Program Director.

Elisabeth is a Principal Engineer based in California with more than 17 years of experience advancing environmental remediation projects involving site characterization, fate and transport, remediation, site-closure strategies, and litigation support, focusing on emerging contaminants. She often focuses on PFAS and other contaminants of emerging concern.

Seth is a Senior Principal Geologist with more than 31 years of experience in project management and planning, remedial investigation, feasibility study development, remedial design, data evaluation, and report preparation for state and federal agencies. She is a leader in evaluating and managing PFAS sites.

Chris is a Senior Environmental Engineer with more than 12 years of experience focused on site assessment, in situ and ex situ remediation, and environmental liability. He was instrumental in a passive, gravity-powered flow-through cell design that is removing over 99% of PFAS from highly impacted streams at a manufacturing facility.

Rachel is a Senior Scientist and Ecological Risk Assessor with 17 years of experience focused on ecotoxicology, emerging contaminants, and characterization of hazardous-waste sites. She often conducts site assessments and remediation at complex sites. Rachel co-created and co-leads Geosyntec’s Microplastics Focus Group.

The Environmental Business Journal’s 2024 Remediation and PFAS Market Report presents a comprehensive analysis of PFAS and remediation and features the 2024 update of the Journal’s PFAS Market Model, as well as a quantitative analysis of the $15 billion US site remediation market as part of the broader environmental contracting segments of the environmental industry.

The Environmental Business Journal, published by Environmental Business International Inc., is a business research publication that provides strategic business intelligence to the environmental industry.
