Spill Response and NRDA

Response planning and preparedness should go beyond simply complying with regulations. The right level of planning can not only reduce the probability of an unplanned release, but can limit impacts on public and natural resources, and on your business reputation should a release occur.

SWCA staff have extensive experience supporting environmental response to oil and chemical spills during the emergency response phase as well as the transition to operational cleanup and into the closure and restoration phases.

We provide comprehensive technical and strategic support to our clients for all phases of the NRDA process beginning with ephemeral data collection during emergency response through injury assessment and restoration planning to negotiated settlement or litigation. 

Our goal is to use a range of analytical tools and information gathered by biologists, ecologists, toxicologists, and engineers to help our clients resolve cases in a manner that is scientifically sound and cost-effective.
