Our Comprehensive Environmental Consulting Services Include:
Project management
- Some think that project management is more of an art than a science, but we believe successful project management depends on knowledge, experience and a desire to get things done. Let us help you define the work scope, what the schedule options are, and determine potential costs in line with your directives. Once accomplished, we will execute the project using our resources or yours. What matters most is getting the job done right, on time and on budget.
Compliance
- Let us assist you with managing the environmental, health and safety issues of your plant. We can evaluate what you are doing, help you decide what could be added, and give guidance on an array of regulatory requirements. Some areas where our knowledge can be helpful include NPDES permitting, air compliance, TSCA and RCRA hazardous waste compliance.
Technology Assessments
- Mitsak & Associates has an array of technology-applied solutions for surface water, soil and groundwater; we can evaluate technologies to determine if they will meet your project requirements. We have particular expertise in metals, including copper, chromium and arsenic and have techniques to mitigate their impact on the environment. Over 10 years ago, we developed The STORMFIX® System to treat inorganic compounds, specifically copper, chromium and arsenic. We also routinely evaluate stormwater technologies and methods that can help keep your facility in compliance.
Permitting
- Whether your interest is air, water or hazardous waste, allow us to help you achieve compliance in a cost effective manner. Need to file a Tier 2 report or help in calculating emissions and transfers from your facility for the annual TRI report? Let us guide you through the process.
Stormwater
- We are experienced in understanding what needs to be done to sample, analyze and report stormwater results. We can explain what the results mean and how to make the numbers lower. We also have a tremendous amount of experience in preparing Pollution Prevention Plans and in training employees.
Waste
- Mitsak & Associates has the experience to guide you through the waste regulations and to set up programs to manage the wastes generated. Whether universal waste or hazardous waste, we have programs that will allow you to meet the requirements of the regulations. If you worry about going through another waste inspection, let us help prepare you for it in advance. Proactive approaches can go a long way in eliminating the possibilities of fines or warnings.
