In cases where contamination is present but not excessive based on the results of a Site Characterization Report, it is often possible to pursue site closure using a combination of fate & transport and risk assessment evaluations & modeling. AJA's experienced staff is proficient at performing these evaluations and has been successful n working with our clients and regulatory personnel to find agreeable alternatives in order to avoid the implementation of active remediation at sites where effective alternatives are feasible.

When remediation is necessary, AJA recognizes the value of getting your site to closure in a timely fashion and focuses on that goal. We custom design our remedial applications (often incorporating pre-piped and trailer enclosed equipment) with appropriate power, efficiency and flexibility to provide the most cost effective total cleanup solutions in the industry.
