Alpha’s goal is to assist clients in gaining a sufficient understanding of site characteristics through investigation and monitoring undertaken toward remediation and achieve site closure. Alpha’s senior-level staff possess many years of practical experience and are directly involved in, and responsible for, development and implementation of investigations and monitoring at solid waste and hazardous waste sites. Typical projects completed by Alpha include:

Litigation support and expert opinion regarding contaminant migration pathways and potential exposure to sensitive receptors based on site subsurface conditions. Characterization of geologic and hydrogeologic conditions to facilitate remedial design, remedial action, and effective closure monitoring. Computer modeling of hydrogeologic conditions to evaluate factors affecting the hydrologic regime and the effectiveness of potential remedial measures.

Monitoring of ground water quality to confirm the effectiveness of implemented remedial actions or natural attenuation. Characterization of the extent of contamination (solvents, petroleum, PCBs, metals and inorganics) and identification of environmental impacts and receptors.

Alpha Geoscience offers a wide range of services to successfully investigate and monitor Solid Waste and Hazardous Waste sites. Projects are typically staffed by Alpha personnel with 20 to 25 years of practical experience who actively participate in all aspects of a project. The services offered by Alpha at Solid Waste and Hazardous Waste sites include:

Regulatory agency negotiations. Development and implementation of investigation, remediation and monitoring plans. Health and safety plan preparation.. Sampling plan and quality control plan preparation. Sampling and characterization of wastes and environmental media. Analysis of risks associated with site contamination. Comprehensive report preparation. Remediation cost estimating and cost-benefit analysis.
