  • Landfill management and closure
  • The management and disposal of contaminated media generated in the course of environmental investigations and remediation projects
  • Recycling and solid waste management (including multiple aspects of the aspects of the waste management regulatory process, from the creation of municipal recycling programs to permitting and closure of landfill facilities)
  • Hazardous materials management and compliance with federal and state "right to know" laws such as the Emergency Planning and Community Right to Know Act, risk management plans, and spill reporting requirements.
