Services.
Remedial Investigation and Corrective Design
​
Nova designs and implements Remedial Investigations (RI) and Corrective Action Design (CAD) programs for a wide variety of sites. An RI determines the nature, extent, and magnitude of a contamination. A CAD provides an action plan for any necessary remediation/cleanup. An RI/CAD also addresses the protection of public health and the environment.
Consistent with the RI/CAD process, Nova personnel develop a detailed feasibility study analysis to establish practical mitigation solutions that are feasible and can be cost-effectively implemented. The majority of Nova’s projects have been completed in response to mandates from regulatory agencies acting under authority of CERCLA, RCRA, and/or various other state and local programs.
