We’re here for you! As your environmental and engineering partner, our team is invested in your success. Through providing full-service environmental, geotechnical/civil engineering, hazardous building materials, and spill response consulting we leverage our technical expertise to meet the needs of your project and provide solutions to your problems. Nichols will work with you to provide the following services:
Through Phase I and II Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs), we not only identify present and potential contaminants on your site. We will not only identify but provide risk assessment, an estimate of the potential risks, and suggestions on managing any contamination.
Our team uses science-based techniques to analyze the occurrence, distribution, and movement of contaminants in water below and on the earth’s surface. Once contaminants are identified, we’ll implement innovative and proven technology for subsurface remediation.
We bring the experience and capability to manage all aspects of underground petroleum storage tank removal. Working in collaboration with you, we’ll develop and execute a plan tailored to your site, your needs, and your goals.
Our team uses in situ remedial technology to reduce the concentration of contaminants in vadose (unsaturated) soil zones, groundwater, and soil mass. We’ll then recommend solutions based on the saturation and contaminants.
Our civil engineering services include earthwork designs, grading and stormwater management design, material volume and construction cost estimates, tender preparation, contract administration, construction supervision, and quality control/quality assurance inspections.
Offering geotechnical consulting, and investigation services primarily in foundation recommendations, top-of-bank assessments, slope stability analysis, landslide remediation, excavation stability, dewatering requirements, retaining wall design, and project management.
Our in-house material testing services include basic soil index tests as moisture content, Atterberg limits, and grain size distribution (Sieve and Hydrometer Test). Working with preferred partner laboratories we fulfill the on-site construction material testing requirements of our clients.
If you’re stuck dealing with a spill, we are just a call away. Our 24-hour spill response line is ready to answer your call to deploy our team who will implement our effective emergency response program, reducing potential environmental liabilities you may face due to an inadvertent release or incident.
Buildings or structures built before the mid-80s may have potentially hazardous materials. Our team will conduct assessments where we inspect and/or sample, to identify typical hazardous materials through abatement monitoring or air quality testing.
We gather samples and investigate areas for asbestos, radon, and mold.
Accessing commercial/industrial indoor air quality (IAQ), looking for potential hazards such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), particle matter (dust, silica), welding gases, mold spores, asbestos, and radon.
Nichols offers other services to meet the unique needs of your business operations. Our team will provide you with technological expertise in the following areas:
Data acquired using drones (UAVs) can aid in numerous projects including large property environmental site assessments (ESAs), stormwater management, remediation monitoring, spill assessments, and receptor identification, monitoring earthwork progress, and updated aerial photographs of facilities.
We are in full compliance with the standards of ISNetworld, AVETTA, and Comply Works. Our services include pre and post-disturbance assessments, environmental field reports, site-specific liability assessments, drilling waste management, injection and disposal well requirements, oilfield waste management requirements, spill response, site assessment, site remediation, and reclamation.
