Lead comprehensive sediment site investigations, including site characterization, sediment sampling, and contamination assessments. Review and interpret complex data from soil, water, and sediment samples to identify contaminants and risks. Conduct ecological risk assessments to inform remediation decisions. Remedial Design & Implementation:
Develop and oversee the design of innovative and cost-effective remedial strategies for sediment contamination, tailored to site-specific conditions in river, lake, marine, and terrestrial environments. Remedial technologies may include dredging, capping, in-situ treatment, bioremediation, or containment strategies. Ensure designs are compliant with CERCLA and other relevant regulations. Regulatory Compliance & Reporting:
Prepare and review reports, regulatory submissions, and technical documentation required under CERCLA and other state/federal environmental regulations. Serve as the primary technical contact for regulatory agencies, ensuring that remedial strategies are in full compliance with applicable laws and permits. Project Leadership & Management:
Manage and oversee multiple sediment remediation projects from start to finish. Lead project teams, ensuring timely and successful project execution. Monitor project budgets, schedules, and resource allocation to meet milestones and client expectations. Manage risk assessments, health & safety plans, and project documentation.
