Christopher has worked with clients to help:

• Direct site closure strategy including Technical Impracticability for a former industrial facility with deep bedrock contamination to preclude active remediation.
• Develop lines of evidence to preclude a bedrock chlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs) investigation at an active industrial facility based on a determination that the contamination originated from an unknown, off-site source.
• Direct a site investigation strategy to evaluate regional PFAS contamination in groundwater proximal to a former pharmaceutical manufacturing facility to facilitiate an off-site source determination.
• Direct a building demolition and site investigation strategy to achieve regulatory closure at a former paint manufacturing plant to facilitiate re-development utilizing public funds.
• Prepare regulatory submissions for all phases of remediation, including a Preliminary Assessment, Site Investigation, Remedial Investigation, Remediation Action, Remedial Action Permit, and Response Action Outcome for various commercial and industrial properties.
