Groundwater/Wastewater

The Problem

Clean, usable groundwater is an absolute necessity in maintaining good public health, Plus, it's the law. Certain commercial and industrial activities can result in heavy groundwater contamination by a variety of substances. SAI’s expert staff is well qualified to assess and mitigate any groundwater contamination issues that may arise in the course of your project.

    Contaminated groundwater can arise from:

  • Leaking underground storage tanks (USTs) and/or piping systems
  • Poorly disposed hazardous materials
  • Problems off-site

The Solution

SAI has a wealth of expertise at our disposal to determine groundwater contamination and develop an appropriate approach to solving the contamination issues. In addition, our knowledge and reputation in the industry and at the NJDEP resulted, for one client, in a reduction of required financial assurances to the NJDEP from that client by a factor of five.
