Environmental Team – Direct Oversight Support

By

MidAtlantic’s Environmental Department provides excellent client support in a number of different ways, including using our significant regulatory knowledge to advocate for their interests.

MidAtlantic recently assisted the owner of an auto body shop after it was discovered that their property was the subject of an NJDEP Regulated UST and Spill Act Discharge case for petroleum contamination. This case, which predated our client’s ownership, was subject to NJDEP compulsory direct oversight due to missed investigation and remediation mandatory timeframes. As a result, our client faced significant financial consequences including direct oversight fees and penalties, as well as the challenge of adhering to additional administrative and reporting requirements beyond those typically required.


Our team of LSRPs and scientists conducted a detailed review of the case and determined that the case had been incorrectly assigned by NJDEP as a regulatory UST case. MidAtlantic presented our understanding of the project history to the NJDEP and was able to successfully have the case reassigned to the Unregulated Heating Oil Tank (UHOT) program and moved out of direct oversight, thereby saving a significant amount in penalties, time, and effort for our client.

MidAtlantic Engineering – Perimeter Air Monitoring Plan

By

MidAtlantic recently completed agrochemical remediation for a client at a residential development in Monmouth County, NJ. Historic use of the property as an orchard resulted in lead arsenate and organochlorine pesticide contamination in surface soils at the site. The remediation consisted of safe consolidation and capping of contaminated soils into a designed berm, allowing for the planned development and subsequent residential use of the site.

In order to safely move contaminated materials, MidAtlantic prepared and implemented a Perimeter Air Monitoring Plan (PAMP) with the goal of conducting real-time monitoring of the site’s dust emissions. Preparation of the PAMP included calculating instantaneous and time-weighted particulate action levels, selecting monitoring methods and locations for air monitoring equipment, and establishing alarm responses that would be effective in preventing exposure of the adjacent residential and school communities to the site’s contaminants. We can proudly state that zero emissions were reported leaving the site above defined action levels, a result of excellent planning and execution by our qualified team of environmental professionals.

The final PAMP included four monitoring stations that measured total respirable dust. In addition, one of the monitoring stations was equipped with a weather station that captured wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure. Each monitoring station was equipped with recharging solar panels and was connected to a cloud-based monitoring and recording system that notified MidAtlantic of any alarm conditions. This monitoring method allowed real-time access to all data and the operation of monitoring stations without on-site MidAtlantic staff. MidAtlantic’s role in this project ensured the remedial actions completed were protective of public health and the environment, and allowed continual progress during development activities, working with our client to complete their desire goal. We can proudly say that zero emissions were reported leaving the site above defined action levels.
