Emerging contaminant remediation

Driven by cutting-edge science, we help you manage emerging contaminants at the right time, in the right way.

As our understanding of the natural world grows exponentially, so does our awareness of how our modern lifestyles have negatively impacted our world. Emerging contaminants and how to manage them represent the intersection of environmental research, regulatory attention, and stakeholder interest — presenting a challenge to public and private sector entities, from industrial and manufacturing to energy to government. From the forefront of the science of emerging contaminants, our experts serve as both translators and guides to clients navigating these rapidly evolving and highly technical topics. 

When it comes to emerging contaminants management, we understand that one approach does not fit all situations. Learning that your project site could be contaminated with the latest chemical of concern may lead to lawsuits, kill deals, and damage your organization’s value and brand. But you could waste time and money by acting too soon, before scientists fully understand how a chemical threatens human and/or ecological health or before regulatory standards have been clearly defined. Haley & Aldrich will partner with you to think through your site remediation concerns, then collaborate to develop an approach customized for your organization’s culture, risk tolerance, business priorities, and bottom line.
