Environmental Consulting

Pollution is a liability issue for private parties and businesses of all types. Whether providing environmental investigations in support of real estate sales, regulatory compliance assessments, or health/safety and pollution prevention programs, Dominion’s job is to understand your business goals and the regulatory rules governing your site, and design a remediation solution tailored to your needs.

Dominion can help you resolve your pollution issue by providing an accurate assessment of the problem, designing an affordable and effective remediation plan that meets your ultimate goal for the site, and overseeing the implementation of that plan.

Drawing on their experience as former in-house environmental consultants in the insurance, utility, transportation, manufacturing, and hazardous waste recycling industries, Dominion’s staff members understand how to work with client’s legal counsel, in-house consultants, and accounting staff to effectively address liability and cash flow issues.

To implement a cost-effective, environmentally sound remediation, Dominion develops a remediation strategy that encompasses applicable regulatory requirements, the client’s financial goals, liability issues such as offsite migration and regulatory climate, and community outreach. This custom-design strategy coupled with the practical assessment of necessary data and the use of innovative testing and remediation techniques allows Dominion to provide a cost-effective remedy at a competitive rate.

Dominion’s staff members are also experienced in providing expert witness testimony, consulting with client counsel, providing technical third-party review of depositions and technical documents, and providing scientific data to support the client’s legal position.
