| Access Analytical offers a very broad
array of laboratory testing services for your environmental samples. There
is almost no project beyond our capabilities. Our support laboratories are
state certified for almost any commonly requested analytes. Our areas of
expertise include analysis of water, soil and waste samples for Organics,
Trace Metals, Inorganics and Dissolved Gases. A sampling of our typical
project work is as follows:
I. Underground Storage Tank Contamination Monitoring
Access Analytical is very experienced with current
DHEC testing requirements for UST sites. Typical analyses include
BTEX/Napth/MTBE (including method 5035 for soils), PAH’s, Trace Metals,
Dissolved Gases, Biological Demands and various indicator parameters.
II. Assessment and Remediation Monitoring for RCRA
Permitted Facilities
Groundwater and soil analysis for various industrial
and manufacturing sites. Contaminants
monitored include volatiles, semivolatiles,
pesticides, herbicides, metals, dioxins and non-halogenated/non-aromatic
solvents.
III. Landfill Monitoring
Numerous projects involving municipal and industrial
landfill contamination. Quarterly and semiannual groundwater monitoring
for Appendix I, Appendix II parameters. Also perform analysis of landfill
leachate and surface water samples for compliance monitoring of various
indicator parameters including demands, nutrients and priority pollutants.
IV. Industrial and Domestic Wastewater Monitoring
Routine sampling and analysis for NPDES regulated
facilities. Set up and sample collection of composite and grab samples and
analysis for permitted parameters. Typical analyses include Trace Metals,
Demands, Nutrients and Total Toxic Organics (TTO’s).
V. Stormwater Monitoring
Analysis of stormwater samples for various
consulting firms and industry. Experience includes baseline studies as
well as pre-defined contaminant monitoring including
volatiles, semivolatiles, metals, demands,
nutrients, petroleum hydrocarbons and microbiologicals.
VI. Drinking Water Analysis
Comprehensive analysis of potable water sources for
all federally regulated contaminants. Project support for new well
installations of public supply wells. Testing includes trihalomethanes,
halogenated and aromatic volatile hydrocarbons, semivolatiles, carbamates,
chlorinated, nitrogen/phosphorus pesticides, dioxins, radiologicals,
bacteria, heavy metals, primary and secondary contaminants, chlorinated
and water soluble herbicides, asbestos, dechlorination byproducts, solids
and surfactants.
VII. Hazardous Waste Profiles
Profiling of industrial waste streams for
hazardous waste charaterization including ignitability, corrosivity,
reactivity and toxicity. Routine analyses include flashpoint, TCLP,
cyanide/sulfide reactivity, pH and/or corrosivity.
VIII. PCB Assessment and Monitoring
Various projects for assessment and remediation of
PCB contaminated sites. Sample matrices include waters, soils, wipe
samples and interior and exterior substrates.
IX. Property Assessment for Real Estate Transactions
Work with various environmental consultants, real
estate agencies, law firms, insurance companies and lending institutions
for real property site characterizations and Brownfields applications.
Provide methodology recommendations based upon site history, adjacent
property activities and future property usage. Soil and groundwater
samples are analyzed for a variety of chemical compounds depending on
potential contaminants associated with the historical or active processes
on site or proximate off site considerations. Testing parameters typically
fall within the scope of federal priority pollutants. |
