OUR SERVICES

We Offer a Range of Services

DESK STUDY

Also known as a Phase 1 or Preliminary Risk Assessment (PRA), the Desk Study is the starting point in the assessment of any site. It includes review of historic maps, environmental data, geological maps and usually a site walkover.

GROUND INVESTIGATION

Physical investigation of ground conditions is often needed to allow samples to be taken and to undertake in-situ testing. We design cost effective ground investigations tailored to specific project needs.

DETAILED QUANTITIVE RISK ASSESSMENT (DQRA)

Put simply, DQRA involves site specific modelling of risks from contamination or ground gases. It is an essential tool in the overall process of assessing brownfield sites. In many cases, DQRA will reduce the scope of remediation required.

REMEDIATION STRATEGIES AND OPTIONS APPRAISAL

Planning conditions relating to land condition often require a Remediation Strategy or Remediation Method Statement. These set out how the risks from contaminated land are to be addressed.

VALIDATION REPORTS

Validation (or Verification) reporting is required to demonstrate that remediation works have been undertaken in accordance with the agreed strategy. It is also needed to close out CL:AIRE DoWCoP MMPs on completion of the works.
