Environmental Forensic Chemistry
Trends in environmental remediation increasingly employ advanced analytical chemistry techniques to evaluate the sources and fates of contaminants and, in some cases, to determine their age or apportion them to sources. ARG employs highly trained professionals with experience in many facets of environmental forensics.ARG's areas of expertise include environmental data interpretation, litigation support, data validation, quality assurance/quality control, environmental sampling and analytical design, laboratory coordination, life sciences, risk assessment and data management.
These skills are routinely applied to surface and sub-surface hazardous material and waste site investigations and remediations under various regulatory programs such as CERCLA (Superfund), RCRA, TSCA and state and federal oil/spill programs. Applications have also included third party reviews, research, design and implementation of field laboratories, and regulatory agency standard operating procedure development.
