Our comprehensive final assessment report will include detailed reports of sampling activities, analytical results, photographic documentation, and applicable regulatory guidance with recommendations.
Soil Remediation
Satori Group has developed agency-approved Corrective Action Plans, and performed soil remediation efforts to meet site cleanup requirements. We interface directly with the regulatory community to discuss site objectives and technical approach.
Using the latest field screening technologies to delineate areas of concern during remedial action, our environmental scientists guide onsite remedial activities. Our services help reduce costs while complying with regulatory requirements to ensure the site remains protective of human health and the environment.
Once remedial activities are complete, staff scientists collect confirmation samples to ensure the agreed upon remedial objectives were obtained. A post remedial action plan report is developed documenting the entire site activity.
