Risk Assessments and Remediation

Risk Assessments
Ninyo & Moore has developed its Risk Assessment program to define and quantify the risk of hazardous substances to human health and the environment in accordance with EPA’s Risk Assessment Guidance for Superfund, California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) guidelines, and other accepted risk models.

Remedial Investigation / Feasibility Study (RI/FS)
The purpose of an RI/FS is to further refine site and contamination characteristics with respect to designing and implementing an appropriate remedial action. The RI/FS work scope will vary significantly according to the specific site characteristics. Project team personnel are familiar with performing RI/FSs to assist our clients in selecting cost effective and technically sound remedial alternatives.

Remedial Action Planning and Remedial Action Design
To meet our client’s needs for meaningful remediation cost and effective remediation activities, Ninyo & Moore develops and prepares Remedial Action Plans (RAPs) for regulatory approval. RAPs are often supplemented with Remedial Action Designs (RADs) for cost estimating, contractor bidding, and permitting.

Site Remediation
On those sites for which our clients decide to undertake remediation, Ninyo & Moore will implement the RAP/RAD by hands-on remediation using its own staff and management or a number of appropriate specialty subcontractors.
