Available sample collection tools include: Geoprobe (direct push machine/in-situ sampler), vapor/water diffusion samplers, low-flow groundwater monitoring well samplers, summa air canisters, isokinetic impinger/filter sampling train for aerosol emissions (EPA methods 1-5, 23, 29, 306) and sediment dredges.
-
Compliance Monitoring: Emission stack testing observations, Clean Water Act Inspection/Sampling (NPDES, SPCC, Storm Water and Pretreatment), Continuous Emissions Monitoring (CEM) audits, Bulk Terminal inspections, Hazardous Organic NESHAPS(HON)/leak detection and repair sampling, RCRA and TSCA sampling, Risk Management Plan audits, and TRI/EPCRA inspections.
-
Technical Support: Emission Stack Test Document Reviews, Air Audit Sample Assistance, Reconnaissance/Targeting, Alternative Emission Test Method Development/Assessment, and Field Sample Development.
