Soil and Groundwater Cleanups

Over the past decade, regulations have shifted from the concept of total cleanups that virtually eliminate contaminants from a site to remediation designed to control the risk of harmful effects. For those responsible for financing cleanups, this is a very important concept. If a site can be remediated by defining and then eliminating risk, significant dollars can be saved compared to cleanups that physically remove every last part per billion of the contaminant. Since 1977, Brickhouse Environmental’s scientists have worked on nearly every size and type of soil and groundwater cleanup from impacted drinking water aquifers to heating oil spills that have saturated the backfill around home foundations. Brickhouse Environmental has a proven track record in the successful remediation of soil and groundwater contamination and over the years have brought value to hundreds of clients.

Geotechnical Investigations

Brickhouse Environmental provides a broad range of geotechnical engineering services. Our engineers and geologists are experienced in evaluating general and site-specific data to determine the most cost effective means to investigate foundations, structures and slopes. Brickhouse Environmental provides construction supervision, quality assurance inspection and certification services. We are currently providing installation and monitoring of geotechnical instrumentation for the entire Cherry Island Landfill Expansion.

Industrial Compliance

Brickhouse Environmental provides a wide range of services that can help you and your facility stay in control of your compliance activities. You will begin to benefit immediately by reducing your time and efforts on non-productive regulatory matters. Our comprehensive compliance services range from government agency negotiations, on-site inspections, compliance audits, training, reporting, to general regulatory management and permitting.

Solid Waste Management

Since Brickhouse Environmental was first incorporated in 1977, the company has provided field services, design engineering, construction management, and regulatory negotiations to the solid waste community. Throughout that time, as the public’s awareness of the importance of protecting the environment resulted in the overhaul of solid waste regulations, Brickhouse Environmental stayed at the forefront, adjusting our approach, personnel, and technology to meet the changing demand for our expertise. Brickhouse Environmental is an active member of the Solid Waste Association of North America (SWANA), Pennsylvania Waste Industries Association (PWIA), and the Maryland/Delaware Solid Waste Association.

Brownfields Development

Restoring contaminated properties for renewed use and economic development is still a significant challenge facing businesses and communities. ARM offers expert assistance and advice in the technical and financial evaluation of development opportunities, planning for the cleanup and development of the site, and the identification of funding opportunities and economic incentives

Geophysics

ARM’s geophysicists have performed thousands of surveys at sites located across the country and abroad. These sites have been situated in varying terrains having many different types of subsurface conditions. Our geophysicists apply their geological and geotechnical backgrounds and experience to provide cost effective geophysical surveys.

Geotechnical Engineering

ARM is staffed by multi-disciplinary professionals with widely varied experience, enabling us to provide effective engineering services for projects ranging from the relatively simple to the most complex. Our in-house staff of geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineers, geologists, and geophysicists assess each assignment to identify the conditions and constraints that must be addressed. This approach ensures that the most appropriate personnel and technologies are used to obtain the information needed to complete each project in a timely, thorough, and effective manner.

Natural Resources

ARM’s natural resources professionals continually apply their technical skills and offer valuable experience and guidance to clients to successfully achieve desired project outcomes. ARM takes a pro-active multi-disciplined team approach in working with clients to develop a practical and cost-effective plan that meets project schedules, complies with local, state and federal regulations and maintains environmental stewardship. ARM is accustomed to working in both the public and private sectors to address a broad range of needs. ARM’s qualified natural resource professionals offer the services for the focus areas presented below.

Waste Management

Managing waste in concert with natural resources becomes increasingly difficult as existing disposal facilities approach capacity and available land resources diminish. ARM’s engineers and scientists have successfully addressed waste disposal issues involving solid and hazardous waste disposal for over 25 years. We work closely with municipalities, industries, and waste authorities to incorporate emerging technologies with established practices to maximize site efficiency, minimize waste generation, and remediate impacted areas.
