Are your remediation programs and systems meeting the intended technical, cost, and clean up level goals? Exponent's independent evaluation of remediation programs, technologies implemented, and system performance can assist you in making appropriate decisions towards meeting your remediation goals in a timely and cost-effective manner.

Remediation systems and technologies are typically driven by the results of site assessments, prevailing regulations, and the current state of applicable and acceptable technologies. They are installed with technical, regulatory, cost, and remediation goal considerations that are defined at the time of implementation. However, experience demonstrates that regulations, technologies, and clients' business and liability management strategies change and evolve over time. An objectives-based performance evaluation of a remediation program or system can not only check the health and progress of the existing system but can identify the potential for taking advantage of regulatory, technology, and strategy changes to meet remediation goals early and save costs.

At times, the effectiveness and performance of a remediation system is driven by litigation matters, especially when systems fail or do not perform as intended. This typically results in cost allocation issues, and an objective and independent performance evaluation becomes a necessity.
