If you have a groundwater problem, Locus has the appropriate solutions: the cost-effective solution. Locus' project management focus, multi-disciplinary staff, support services, and state-of-the-art technologies are available to successfully complete your groundwater projects. From small-scale projects to large-scale engineering and remediation efforts, our turnkey approach makes a range of solutions available through a single reliable source. For Superfund sites, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) facilities, and potentially responsible party (PRP) needs, as well as property transfer, underground storage tank management, and other requirements, Locus supplies the integrated resources necessary to manage your particular groundwater solution.

Locus' strength in the area of groundwater assessment has been demonstrated through numerous projects involving site characterization and risk assessment. Our geologic and hydrogeologic experts investigate the site setting and characterize the nature, extent, and concentration of a contaminant plume. Following assembly of raw data, Locus staff members may apply computer modeling techniques to predict future plume migration. Locus' risk assessment specialists quantify the risks to human health and the environment and establish defensible cleanup criteria.

We are a leader in computer modeling and contaminant transport studies. With a highly trained staff of geologists, geochemists, hydrogeologists, engineers, and computer scientists, our expertise ranges from simple computer-based analytical solutions to complex 3-D numerical models.

Locus concentrates design efforts on the evaluation of remedial technologies that are potentially applicable to your site-specific problem. An applied technology focus facilitates our screening of treatment methods to identify cost-effective solutions that meet cleanup criteria. Whether the optimum solution involves one treatment method or a combination of several technologies, we have accumulated experience in a variety of technologies necessary to support every task associated with groundwater projects.

As soon as the client and regulatory agencies approve the design and construction of remedial measures, Locus professionals develop detailed specifications for all major work to be performed and all equipment to be purchased or manufactured. Project details are worked out, and construction drawings are prepared. Locus can then build your treatment plant. We install groundwater recovery wells, conveyance piping, pads, pumps, treatment systems, and associated automation.

Locus offers hands-on know-how in the installation and operation of groundwater treatment systems. If required, we implement a monitoring program to document the progress of aquifer restoration. The program can be facilitated by EIM™, Locus' web-based environmental database management system, to manage, verify, and report all data. Using the data, trained site personnel adjust operating conditions to meet plant performance requirements. We automate groundwater treatment systems to lower operation and maintenance costs.
