Environmental risk assessment services

We uncover the right approach so you can achieve your end vision.

The path to site closure is complex and multifaceted. Public scrutiny, push-back from community groups, regulatory barriers, and exorbitant remediation costs are just a few of the hurdles you need to navigate when managing remedial liabilities. When approached strategically, human health and ecological risk assessment can be a linchpin to help you more efficiently and effectively achieve your vision for your property — no matter the obstacles.

At Haley & Aldrich, environmental risk assessment is not a check-the-box exercise. We view risk assessment as a fundamental step in helping to manage your business risks. Our risk assessment consultants work closely with you and your team to, first and foremost, understand your long-term goals. From there, we develop risk assessments that offer various pathways to achieve your desired outcome.

To find the right path forward, our environmental risk assessment team digs deeply — interpreting regulations to explore all possibilities and applying information that can provide a tangible benefit to the risk-based outcome. With this approach, we’re able to provide you with options so you can choose the path that best addresses your business risk. The result? A defensible risk assessment outcome that aligns with your project vision.
