The role of environmental services and consultants in managing underground utilities when addressing environmental concerns at LUST sites (leaking underground storage tank sites) is of utmost importance. The world beneath our feet is vast and unforgiving, and the smallest error has the potential to endanger communities and the environment for decades.
Environmental professionals employ advanced techniques and technologies to identify potential hazards, mitigate risk, and remediate contaminated areas. These processes are also crucial to achieving regulatory closure of LUST sites, which are a national concern that many states have begun to place more focus on.
