BluMetric Environmental Inc. services

BluMetric was founded on geoscience expertise, and our outstanding reputation in hydrogeology continues to be one of our major differentiators in the environmental professional services industry.

Since BluMetric’s inception in 1976, we provide high-level site assessment and remediation services to the property management, real estate, legal, and brownfield redevelopment fields across Canada — including the far north. During real estate transactions or corporate mergers, or simply through standard operations and management of properties, environmental liabilities can be a major concern. BluMetric is frequently called upon to perform or contribute to due diligence audits of properties or buildings prior to transactions. These Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs) involve intensive reviews of information, site inspections, and interviews, and may lead to testing of soil, groundwater, sediment, and surface water. The goal is to identify and quantify environmental liabilities, assess compliance, and estimate the costs of achieving or maintaining compliance.

BluMetric delivers complete environmental engineering solutions to a wide variety of issues related to contaminated site remediation, water resource management, water and wastewater treatment, and solid waste management. At our core is a multidisciplinary group of civil, geological, chemical, mechanical, and electrical engineers. Taking the time and effort to fully understand our clients’ unique challenges, we then curate each project team for the specialized knowledge, skills, and experience required to solve the problem.

The BluMetric occupational hygiene team is committed to protecting the health and safety of workers by anticipating, recognizing, assessing, and controlling chemical, physical, and biological occupational hazards. BluMetric’s occupational hygienists conduct workplace exposure assessments, investigations sampling, and monitoring of chemical/biological hazards, as well as hazardous building material assessments. We also perform toxicity assessments and provide remediation oversight.

BluMetric’s geomatics specialists use modern tools and techniques to streamline access to spatial information and facilitate its management and use. We use both industry-standard software platforms and custom applications. Our experience includes precise mapping of industrial, mining, and infrastructure locations, often for remote sites. We collect data using technology such as drones (RPAs), RTK-GPS, ground based LiDAR, remote sensing, and sonar to provide detailed field surveys showing high resolution topography, ortho-imagery, bathymetry, and other natural and human-made features of importance or areas of impact. We provide the data to our clients in a secure proprietary Environmental Data Management System (EDMS). This is a web-based platform that allows decision makers to review chemistry results, as well as easy mapping and graphing of contaminated sites.

Our team has decades of military, water and wastewater treatment experience, building, implementing, and deploying custom and off-the-shelf water treatment solutions. We have full welding, machining, electrical, assembly, and testing capabilities. BluMetric is certified, ISO 9001-2015, CWB CSA Standard W47.1, and TSSA CSA B51 AMSE B31.1 and B31.3
