Whether you are new to the industry (or just curious!) and are looking for an introduction to what environmental consulting entails, or you are a veteran simply wanting a back-to-basics refresher, join this presentation for a dive into the "101" of the environmental consulting industry.
Molds are naturally occurring in the environment and are found almost everywhere, including indoors. However, at high concentrations, molds can affect the health of humans, especially immunocompromised or hypersensitive individuals. Exposure to molds, and the mycotoxins they produce, can lead to adverse health effects, such as fungal infections, rash, fever, [...]
To improve our understanding of environmental ethics we will explore some of the deeper ethical concerns with Risk-Based decision-making that drives a majority of federal and state environmental regulatory decisions. We will briefly discuss some moral philosophies that form a basis for the way western civilization views environmental values. We [...]

It seems like just yesterday we were discussing updates to the 2005 Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESA) standard, which became the now current ASTM E1527-13 “Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process”. That was back in 2013 and here we are 8-years later with [...]

Users of Phase I ESAs can be left wondering what steps are necessary to maintain CERCLA’s liability protections after a recognized environmental condition (REC) is identified associated with a current or past use of a property. Every site is unique and there is no single approach to evaluating potential subsurface [...]

Environmental sampling approaches and technology have come a long way over the last 30-years. These improvements have led to an increase in quality of the data and the overall confidence of the results. Despite the improvements in sampling equipment, technology, and analysis, “bad data” is still collected, processed, and reported. [...]
Cleaning up contaminated properties can take a long time at great expense. In most cases, conducting a completely “clean” cleanup is not always feasible and can be cost-prohibitive. As a result, risk-based closures are becoming more common, which means residual contamination remains behind and environmental restrictions are applied to the [...]
