Bailey Theriault, PG, LG; Jeff Schneider, PE, PEng; and Christie Hale, PhD, discuss the geological challenges pipeline operators face and how Geosyntec practitioners can help them assess and manage associated risks.
Christie Hale, Bailey Theriault, Jeff Schneider, Alycia DiTroia, Cole Jensen, Debora Martogi, Ali Ebrahimi, and Amir Ahmadipur will present at the International Pipeline Conference and Expo (IPCE) on September 21 through 25, 2026, in Calgary, Canada.
Jenny Ramirez, PhD, PEng, and Christie Hale, PhD, will serve on panels at Geo-Congress 2026 on March 9 through 12, 2026, in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Lelio Mejia, PhD, PE, GE, NAE; Glenn Rix, PhD, PE; Christie Hale, PhD; and Kathleen (Kate) Darby, PhD, PE, will teach “Earthquake Engineering for Embankment Dams” at the Association of State Dam Safety Officials (ASDSO) Seminar.
Christie is a Seismic Hazard Analyst based in Texas with more than ten years of experience focused on the evaluation of seismic hazards and the assessment of seismic safety for critical infrastructure projects including dams, landfills, hospitals, and energy systems.
Geosyntec staff will present at and contribute to the 2023 Hydropower Conference in Palm Springs, California, on March 14 and 15, 2023. The event will be hosted by the Centre for Energy Advancement through Technological Innovation (CEATI) International.
Several Geosyntec practitioners contributed to sessions for the 2021 United Society on Dams (USSD) Virtual Conference to be held virtually between May 10 and 21, 2021.
Lelio Mejia, Ph.D., PE, G.E., Glenn Rix, Ph.D., PE, (Georgia), and Christie Hale, Ph.D., (California), with assistance from Kate Darby, Ph.D., (California), developed a two-day technical course on “Earthquake Engineering for Embankment Dams” for the Association of State Dam Safety Officials (ASDSO) to be delivered on November 2-3, 2020.
Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Connect With Us Investors and consumers increasingly demand companies improve their operations as measured by Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) standards. Purposeful ESG and sustainability programs demonstrate to stakeholders a company’s commitment to operate responsibly in everything they do. A tailored ESG strategy can mitigate business risks, leverage opportunities, and drive long-term business value. Geosyntec helps our clients identify ways to embed ESG and sustainability goals into their ....
Geosyntec practitioners rank among the world's top professionals in providing site assessment and remediation services at a wide range of impacted sites using innovative technologies and solutions that consistently advance the state of the practice. Through our use of innovative technologies and solutions, we provide our public and private sector clients with a wide array of services to address their toughest challenges. Our contaminated site practitioners guide our clients through a specialized remediation plan, consult on regulatory strategies, and develop a comprehensive cleanup approach. We can address numerous types of media, including contaminated soils, sediments, and groundwater. Advancing the State of the Practice Geosyntec's practitioners are pioneers in site assessment and remediation. Our senior practitioners have developed and authored guidance material and courses for local, state, and national agencies and associations on remediation techniques and technologies. Working with the Interstate Technical Regulatory Council, Geosyntec practitioners taught a training course on vapor intrusion, including mitigation options for the development of vapor-impacted brownfield sites. Geosyntec practitioners also wrote the guidance document on evaluating, optimizing, or ending post-closure care at impacted sites, including brownfield sites, and developed a patented approach for sub-slab vapor migration mitigation allowing residential, commercial, and industrial development on sites impacted by vapor intrusion. Our specialists routinely collaborate with prominent national researchers from academia and government agencies to provide innovative and defensible strategies for sites with contaminated sediments. For example, we collaborated with the United States Geological Survey (USGS) to remediate chlorinated solvent-contaminated marsh sediments by applying a bioreactive mat system embedded with a dehalogenating microbial consortium, a technology Geosyntec helped develop. This project and partnership earned our client recognition as a finalist for the Service to America Medal awarded by the Partnership for Public Service. Through a collaborative research project with the University of Florida, Geosyntec professionals helped develop the FLUCL software package for the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. This software is used to calculate exposure point concentration statistics in risk assessment and was the first of its kind to contain algorithms for censored datasets. FLUCL has received endorsements from several United States Environmental Protection Agency regions and the California Environmental Protection Agency. Geosyntec scientists also pioneered the use of genetic molecular tools to characterize microbes in environmental media and are engaged in applied research and development with top academic institutions around the world, including the University of Toronto, Cornell University, and the Georgia Institute of Technology.
