"Due to the complex nature of the remedial actions, most owners use consultants to lead the work and to interface with state regulators. So the selection of the consultant has become much more critical than ever before since the consultant can either cut to the chase or drag the work out, consuming more time and resources of the owner."
 

Hazardous & Solid Waste Services

Industries and public entities endured expensive cleanups as Potentially Responsible Parties (PRPs) under Superfund in the old days. Those actions have slowed to a crawl, although a few entities were awarded funds for reuse after cleanup or under the Brownfields program. State programs mirrored the federal program but sometimes with their own professional certification programs for engineers and hydrogeologists to lead the efforts with minimal supervision. These state programs have carried on identifying contaminated sites and ordering cleanups.
