Phase
II Site Investigation
If environmental concerns are identified on a property, "all
appropriate inquiry" would include design of a data collection
plan to gather adequate information concerning the extent and magnitude
of contamination, physical and chemical parameters, and potentially
impacted receptors, while minimizing costs to the extent possible.
Data regarding risk to human health and the environment and costs
of cleanup will be evaluated to select appropriate remedial response
activities. More Information...

Water
Resources Services
As groundwater withdrawals from aquifers continue to increase, it
is becoming more difficult to locate and permit new water supplies,
and protect existing supplies. The presence of contaminants such
as MTBE and lawsuits over water use rights complicate the process
even further. The geologists and hydrogeologists at StoneHill can
provide the expertise to locate, permit and develop new supplies,
as well as prepare and implement wellhead protection plans to preserve
existing water supplies. StoneHill can also develop supplies for
groundwater heat pump systems. More Information...
