GZA has provided site characterization services for over 25 years that have aided commercial, industrial, and municipal clients successfully design and permit numerous solid waste facilities throughout much of the U.S.  Our thorough understanding of the design, permitting, operation, and eventual closure of these facilities provides us with the necessary context in which to develop and execute relevant site characterization studies.

Tasks that GZA has performed to characterize a site include:

• Geological and hydrogeological evaluations
• Geotechnical investigations
• Air modeling / odor assessments
• Visual impact assessments
• Natural resource evaluations / ecological assessments
