Information obtained during the Phase I and Phase II assessments was then used to develop estimates of the potential financial liabilities associated with environmental impacts identified at the individual pipeline facilities. These estimates were subsequently used by the client during the partnership negotiations.
Upon completion of the purchase, O’Connor Associates was retained by the new partnership to develop remedial action plans for specific sites, and to undertake additional environmental assessment, monitoring and remediation activities.
Based on the results of Phase I and Phase II assessments, a variety of practical remediation options were developed for free hydrocarbon recovery, groundwater
control and remediation, ex-situ bioremediation and offsite disposal of the observed impacted soils.
