Environmental remediation deals with the removal of pollution or contaminants from environmental media such as soil, groundwater, sediment, or surface water for the general protection of human health and the environment or from a brownfield site intended for redevelopment. Remediation is generally subject to an array of regulatory requirements, and also can be based on assessments of human health and ecological risks where no legislated standards exist or where standards are advisory.

Because the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA or Superfund) places the onus of responsibility for property contamination onto both past and current property owners, we at R.J Catanise & Associates Consulting, Inc.'s associates provide full service site assessments as a key component of property transfer to ensure that liability under Superfund is minimized. In addition, our associates can develop innovative, cost-effective remedial solutions for owners and developers to keep their projects moving forward.
