Remediation and RCRA/CERCLA
Burns & McDonnell has completed the design, construction and operation of remediation systems for contaminated sites across the country. Our comprehensive in-house capabilities allow us to conduct site investigations, compare remediation alternatives, negotiate with agency representatives, design and construct turn-key remediation systems, operate and maintain systems, monitor and quantify the effect of remediation, and achieve site closure. We also have sufficient expertise in remediation technology to operate and maintain, and/or modify, existing remediation systems. The remediation alternatives offered address surface, subsurface contamination in the soil, groundwater, and vapor phases.
Burns & McDonnell has provided clients with environmental solutions since the first regulations were passed. Today, we offer all the services needed to bring your site to closure in the most cost-effective manner.
Our experts design remediation strategies that focus on your objectives, with an emphasis on safety and innovation that saves you money.
