Environmental contamination is a critical, costly issue. GAI Consultants helps private and public sector clients turn potential liabilities into assets. Our remediation professionals recommend cost-effective, long-term solutions that protect human health and the environment in order to restore sites and facilities for redevelopment and re-use.

Award-winning site development projects benefit from the site remediation efforts of a premier environmental engineering consultant.

The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) requires property buyers and lenders to exercise due diligence in investigating on-site liabilities prior to commercial or industrial property purchases. If not done, the purchaser can become financially responsible for costly cleanup. GAI’s reputation for addressing such liabilities with cost-effective remedial solutions, and advancing permitting, is

outstanding among environmental consulting firms.

GAI conducts Phase I Site Assessments to determine the environmental condition of property. Our risk assessments are conducted in strict accordance with ASTM standards. If conditions that could impact the environment are discovered, we conduct custom-designed Phase II Site Investigations. Our professionals cost-effectively assesses the nature and extent of contamination through site history research and field reconnaissance, and detail the extent and degree of contamination to save time and cost in the remediation phase.

Phase III Site Remediation is warranted when site contamination is found. GAI’s environmental engineers, scientists, and construction specialists choose the best remediation method based on site conditions and location—and the type, extent and degree of contamination. Our remedial solutions move projects forward within the confines of producing a clean environment for site reuse.

Toxicology tests and risk characterizations are conducted by GAI to evaluate the potential
