Older landfills are being remediated for future
construction projects. The nature and extent of the fill
must be determined for a successful remedial design and to
determine construction costs.
Geophysical methods can be applied to locate the nature and
extent of the fill and enhance traditional drilling
techniques. This combination of techniques provides better
information for acquisition, planning and site development
by reducing your uncertainty and avoiding surprises.
In
addition to landfill delineation and characterization,
geophysical techniques are applied to provide information
about Leachate plumes and located failed and leaking liners.
Geophysics has proven effective in countless landfill
locations and remedial investigations.
