Site Investigation and Characterization

We provide cost-effective and comprehensive site investigation services, including soil boring, groundwater sampling, geophysical studies, and contamination assessments to ensure compliance and site safety.

Overview

Stratus Environmental specialises in conducting detailed site investigations to identify contamination risks, assess environmental conditions, and support remediation planning. Our team employs advanced techniques such as soil boring, groundwater monitoring, vapor intrusion analysis, and exploratory excavations to develop an accurate site profile.

Comprehensive Site Assessments

Our team begins each investigation by thoroughly understanding the site's background, previous assessments, and potential contamination sources. We conduct site history reviews, regulatory research, and stakeholder consultations to develop a strategic investigation plan.

Advanced Sampling Techniques

We utilise cutting-edge methods to collect and analyse soil, groundwater, and air samples. Our capabilities include:

  • Soil Borings – Drilling and extracting soil samples to assess subsurface contamination.
  • Groundwater Monitoring Wells – Installing wells to track pollutant migration and groundwater conditions.
  • Geophysical Surveys – Using advanced equipment to detect subsurface anomalies and contamination sources.
  • Soil Vapor Probes – Assessing vapor intrusion risks by analysing soil gas and indoor air quality.

Regulatory Compliance & Reporting

Stratus works closely with regulatory bodies and site owners to ensure all investigations meet environmental compliance standards. We provide detailed reports, risk assessments, and actionable recommendations to guide further remediation efforts.

Cost-Effective Investigation Planning

Before fieldwork begins, we develop a focused investigation plan designed to minimise project costs and accelerate site characterization. Our goal is to complete assessments efficiently while ensuring all necessary data is collected in a single phase.
