Remediation

Whilst remediation of contaminated land can reap significant financial rewards, it can also be complex, costly and time consuming. GEG has vast experience in site assessment and remediation of contaminated land, and can therefore provide highly cost effective remedial solutions taylored to a proposed development build plan or even around existing structures.

GEG provides a complete service to developers, existing landowners and financial institutions with the provision of a ‘turn key’ solution from pre-acquisition ‘abnormal’ cost estimates through environmental risk assessment and remediation design/completion to final validation.

GEG has no financial attachment to any remedial contractor or technique, therefore we are able to design the most cost effective remedial solution based solely on the site specific conditions, the proposed development and timescales. Such techniques include:

• Excavation with On-Site or Off-Site treatment
• In-situ / Ex-situ bioremediation
• Soil Washing
• Chemical Oxidation
• Stabilisation / Solidification
• Air Sparging
• Soil Vapour Extraction (SVE) and Enhanced SVE
• Natural Attenuation
• Permeable Reactive Barriers
• Pump and Treat

GEG has an excellent relationship with the regulatory authorities including the Local Authority, Environment Agency and NHBC. All our reports concur with current guidelines and legislation and hence allow a rapid discharge of planning conditions.
