Anatomy of a Soil Site Investigation

A successful soil site investigation requires fulfilling the needs of the three main parties involved in the action — the NJDEP, the client, and ESA — all of whom have differing objectives. With thousands of clients over 35 years, ESA has yet to encounter a single client who is pleased to learn they must spend money on a soil site investigation. So, to achieve the objectives and keep the client happy, ESA must formulate a strategic plan for the investigation that artfully combines adherence to NJDEP regulations with seeking a route that requires the least amount of work possible.

EPA FINALIZES PFAS MCLs

After years of negotiating with environmental professionals, municipal officials, and other stakeholders, the USEPA has established the long-awaited drinking water standards for six PFAS chemicals. The new standards will require public water systems to conduct initial monitoring of their water supply systems within three years, notify the public of PFAS impacts, and make capital improvements to water treatment systems within five years. The final rule goes into effect 60 days following its publication in the Federal Register.

 

While the ripple effects of this new rule haven’t been evidenced yet, they will surely increase the burden on municipalities to invest in and improve their existing drinking water treatment and delivery systems.

NJDEP AUTHORIZES LSRPs TO SELF-CERTIFY SOIL REMEDIAL ACTION PERMIT APPLICATIONS

The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection has released its Supplemental Certification for Soil Remedial Action Permit Application allowing LSRPs to certify both pending and new Soil-RAP applications. Under the former certification process, Responsible Parties were often forced to wait up to two years before having their application(s) reviewed by the NJDEP due to the enormous backlog. With the new program, the authority to certify now rests with the LSRP. This will reduce time to permit approval and issuance of Response Action Outcome (RAO) letters, allowing site redevelopment to proceed without having to wait for the NJDEP to complete its lengthy review.

 

The form is available in the NJDEP Forms Library under Remedial Action Permits.

 

NJDEP is currently evaluating a similar option for Groundwater–RAP applications. However, that process remains under development by the Department.
