Cost-Effective Remediation From an Owner’s Perspective
Customized solutions for your site’s unique challenges.
Cleaning up contaminated sites is not a one-size-fits-all solution. Every property and every contaminant has unique characteristics and conditions. Making a site reusable requires customized solutions that consider economic viability while navigating compliance.
TRC understands that effective site solutions rarely use a single “off-the-shelf” approach. They take technical, regulatory, risk management and financial considerations. That’s why we think like an owner when it comes to site remediation.
Driven by the desire to improve environmental practices and enhance the value of real estate, we deliver cost-effective, efficient and sustainable solutions using state-of-the-art design models and innovative technologies, including natural source-zone depletion and in-situ remedies.
TRC can quickly delineate the extent of contamination using high-resolution tools and 3D digital models. By developing robust conceptual site models, decision-makers gain confidence in approving the most cost-effective remedy to make a site safe for future use.

Groundwater Flow and Contaminant Transport Modeling
Groundwater modeling is an essential component of many groundwater supply and remediation projects and can be beneficial for large- and small-scale applications. If properly constructed, groundwater models can be useful tools to evaluate water resources, wellfields, construction dewatering, remedial systems, fate and transport, risk, and uncertainty.
