Site Assessment and Remediation:
Risk Management and Remedial Alternatives

Barr has experience with a broad spectrum of risk management and remediation techniques. We've designed award-winning remediation systems at sites associated with significant challenges, such as locations in dense urban neighborhoods or next to protected waterways. Our designs stress adaptability and reliability. Adaptable remediation works well with, and sometimes takes advantage of, the natural features of a site.

At times effective risk management involves no remediation at all. We can assist you in determining whether natural solutions will work with your long-term plans for the site, and help you limit your future liability. When necessary, we'll help you develop contingency plans so that even if you take no action now, you'll be prepared to respond if and when you need to.

The following remedial alternatives are among those that Barr considers when determining a remedial course of action:

  • Ex-situ bioremediation
  • In-situ bioremediation
  • Natural attenuation
  • Chemical oxidation
  • Removal or landfilling
  • Co-burning
  • Thermal desorption
  • Source containment wells
  • DNAPL recovery
  • Granular activated carbon
