Site Characterization

The essence of sound, effective site investigation is beginning with the end in mind. Only that approach allows for the collection of the right data, from the right locations, in the right quantities, with the right level of quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC). Designing each investigation to support the end-use goals for your property will result in a more streamlined and cost-effective site characterization.

We stay abreast of emerging technical developments in the field to make sure that we are applying the best available, fit-for-purpose technologies to characterize your site. And we stay on top of regulatory trends in order to make sure that you aren’t surprised by new requirements part way through a project.

Trihydro has been in the business of environmental site characterization for 30 years and our professionals have experience both broad and deep. Particular strengths include the areas of:

Subsurface investigation design and interpretation
Hydrogeology
Light non-aqueous phase liquid (LNAPL) saturation and mobility
Vapor intrusion
Site conceptual models
Risk assessment

"Trihydro's project team came up with efficient ways to do the job (petroflag and geoprobe characterizations, in particular), and though there were things that came up occasionally that were not ideal, Trihydro responded such that the job has been completed well. Both Lennar and the regulators feel that Trihydro is a quality company that produces reliable work that we can trust. We aren’t finished yet, but we believe we will be – and with the challenges this job has had, that will be quite an accomplishment!"
