Environmental Remediation and
Site Rehabilitation

When contamination is discovered, timely assessment and a well-planned remediation strategy are critical to protecting human health, maintaining regulatory compliance, and minimizing project delays. Whether you're responding to a recent release, investigating contamination identified during due diligence, or working toward regulatory site closure, we provide the technical expertise and regulatory guidance needed to move your project forward.

​

At Excelsior, we assist property owners, developers, industrial facilities, petroleum operators, municipalities, attorneys, and environmental managers throughout Florida with site assessment, remediation planning, regulatory coordination, and corrective action implementation.

​

Site Assessment and Characterization

The first step in any successful remediation project is understanding the nature and extent of contamination. Following a reported discharge or the discovery of environmental impacts, we conduct site assessment activities in accordance with applicable Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) regulations, including Chapter 62-780, Florida Administrative Code.

​

Depending on project requirements, our assessment services may include:

• Contamination Assessment Reports (CAR)

• Soil sampling and laboratory analysis

• Groundwater assessment and monitoring

• Soil vapor investigation

• Delineation of contaminant plumes

• Receptor surveys and risk evaluation

• Data interpretation and regulatory reporting

• ​

Our goal is to define the extent of contamination and provide the information necessary to select the most effective and cost-efficient corrective action strategy.

​

Remediation Planning

No two contaminated sites are identical. Effective remediation requires a thorough understanding of site conditions, contaminant characteristics, hydrogeology, future land use objectives, and regulatory requirements.

​

We work closely with property owners, stakeholders, regulators, and technical specialists to develop remediation strategies that are both practical and defensible.

​

When evaluating remedial alternatives, we consider:

• The type and concentration of contaminants

• The extent of impacts to soil, groundwater, and vapor

• Site geology and hydrogeology

• Regulatory requirements

• Planned property use and redevelopment objectives

• Long-term effectiveness

• Project schedule and budget considerations

​

Remediation Services

Depending on site conditions, remediation may involve one or more corrective action technologies. We help clients evaluate, design, implement, and monitor remediation strategies tailored to their specific project needs.

 

Common remediation approaches include:

​

Source Removal

Excavation and off-site disposal of impacted soil or source materials to eliminate contaminant concentrations and reduce ongoing environmental risk.

​

Groundwater Recovery and Treatment

Active remediation systems designed to recover, treat, and manage contaminated groundwater.

​

In-Situ Treatment

Application of chemical, biological, or other treatment technologies directly within affected soil or groundwater without removing impacted media from the site.

​

Thermal Remediation

Use of heat or steam to remove, recover, or destroy contaminants within soil and groundwater.

​

Bioremediation

Enhancement of naturally occurring microbial processes that break down contaminants into less harmful compounds.

​

Phytoremediation

Use of vegetation and natural biological processes to stabilize, remove, or degrade environmental contaminants.

​

Containment and Engineering Controls

Use of caps, barriers, geotextiles, institutional controls, and other engineering solutions to isolate impacts and prevent exposure.

​

Regulatory Coordination & Site Closure

Successful remediation involves more than implementing corrective action. It requires ongoing communication with regulators, thorough documentation, and a clear path toward site closure.

​

We assist clients throughout the remediation process, including:

• FDEP coordination and reporting

• Corrective action planning

• Remedial Action Plan (RAP) development

• Performance monitoring

• Post-Action Remedial Monitoring (PARM)

• Site rehabilitation program support

• Closure documentation and regulatory compliance

 

Our team understands the importance of balancing regulatory requirements with practical business objectives. We work to identify solutions that reduce environmental risk while helping clients protect project schedules and control costs.

​

Our staff has supported environmental assessment and remediation projects for petroleum marketers, industrial facilities, commercial property owners, developers, and utility-sector clients throughout Florida. From emergency spill response and initial assessment through remediation and regulatory closure, our goal is to provide practical solutions backed by experience and sound science.
