Environmental Engineering

TerraGraphics' personnel have diverse expertise in the environmental, infrastructure, and water resource disciplines. We provide a wide range of services including:

  • Project Management,
  • Engineering Design,
  • Construction Oversight,
  • Engineering Reports,
  • Construction Documents,
  • Waste Engineering Solutions, and
  • Regulatory Compliance & Permitting

TerraGraphics has provided engineering services on projects ranging in size from small petroleum and pesticide/herbicide contaminated soil remediation, to city infrastructure reconstruction, to some of the largest Superfund and hazardous waste sites in the nation. TerraGraphics’ engineering experience is unique.


Engineering Experience

We perform both infrastructure and environmental engineering inside and outside significantly contaminated sites. Many of our projects have utilized infrastructure and redevelopment as part of containing and controlling a contaminated site. Our primary disciplines include:

  • Repositories
  • Site remediation
  • Passive water treatment
  • Streets
  • Site Utilities
  • Grading and Drainage
  • Flood control
  • Solid Waste and hazardous waste management
  • Community redevelopment
  • Grant/finance support
  • NPDES permits

We have extensive experience working with community and infrastructure issues within CERCLA and Brownfields sites. Also, we have experience in waste management, repository development, and water quality management. TerraGraphics has led one of the largest flood control and community reconstruction projects within a CERCLA site in the country.

Our water resources expertise also includes several engineering topics as well as natural resources and environmental science.



Engineering Planning & Design


TerraGraphics has developed engineering planning and design on some of the most complicated environmental and infrastructure projects in the region. Our staff have worked on a variety of challenging project sites involving multi-communities, controversial projects, and a variety of regular and project requirements in water quality, environmental protection, public health, and community reconstruction. We also work with teaming partners to fulfill project requirements and expertise. Some of particular project components include:

  • GPS survey
  • AutoCAD/GIS
  • Engineering alternative analysis
  • Cost Evaluation
  • Multi-schedule design options
  • Infrastructure and surface water controls within a CERCLA regulatory environment
  • NDPES compliance
  • Multi-regulatory agency, multi-funding source projects


Construction Oversight


TerraGraphics has performed construction oversight on engineering and environmental projects within a CERCLA environment. In addition to standard oversight practices, construction oversight has included elements such as:

  • Site controls within a highly contaminated area
  • Material handling and disposal of contaminated materials
  • Contract enforcement with added environmental compliance
  • Interaction with addition regulatory agencies

Project intensity can be accelerated over standard construction due to the factors listed above. TerraGraphics has developed contract administration procedures, Resident Project Representatives, and interaction with regulatory agencies to improve project delivery.


Solid & Hazardous Waste

TerraGraphics has provided engineering services for a wide variety of solid and hazardous waste cleanup and closure projects. These projects have ranged from the comprehensive cleanup of the Bunker Hill Superfund Site to several landfill developments and closures throughout the Pacific Northwest and Hawaii.

We have performed engineering oversight services, reviewed design and construction specifications, and provided management protocols for several other smelter and lead-related soils and structures cleanups in the United States and Russia.



Permitting

TerraGraphics’ staff have permitted several types of
facilities and projects. We are familiar with:

  • Solid and hazardous facility planning and permitting
  • NPDES
  • NEPA
  • SEPA (Washington State)
  • CERCLA
  • RCRA
  • Clean Water Act
  • Incinerator Ash Management and Landfill permitting
  • Endangered Species Act
