Hidden Hazards Unveiled : Environmental Site Assessments Explained Before construction begins, a hidden environmental threat could lurk beneath the surface. An Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) from Marshall GeoScience acts as a detective story, uncovering potential liabilities like buried waste, soil contamination, or underground storage tanks. This comprehensive evaluation protects you from costly cleanups and ensures a safe and healthy environment for your development project. Dive deeper into the world of ESAs and understand how Marshall GeoScience safeguards your investment. #marshallgeo #environmentalsiteassessment #ESA #environmentalhazards #soilcontamination #undergroundstoragetanks #buriedwaste #constructionplanning #safedevelopment #marshallsgeoscience #environmentalprotection #developmentproject #siteassessment #costlysafeguards #projectinvestment #environmentalsafety #geoscienceevaluation 💥Website: https://lnkd.in/g78-T65N

I'm excited to share our new Viewpoint article in American Chemical Society 's Environmental Science and Technology "The Greatest Opportunity for Green Stormwater Infrastructure Is to Advance Environmental Justice". There are no equations or chemical structures here. We do go through the current science, including existing strengths and weaknesses/threats, but we conclude that "GSI and, more broadly, other nature-based solutions offer possibilities for improving urban hydrologic function and water quality while providing multiple co-benefits; however, we contend the most important benefit is as a tool to advance environmental justice (EJ). Indeed, if these benefits lack intentionality in process and placement to repair past harms, we miss the greatest opportunity of all." and that "Green infrastructure offers an opportunity to cast a new collective vision, provided that justice is unequivocally tethered to our water quantity and quality aspirations." I hope that this piece can help people think in new ways, challenge current paradigms of thinking, and envision a new inclusive future in stormwater and green infrastructure. Thanks to an amazing team Marccus D. Hendricks , Ph.D., MPH | Maya Elizabeth Carrasquillo | Lauren McPhillips | Brandon Winfrey | Jim Mihelcic Thanks to the support of ES&T on this topic (both the original webinar and Viewpoint), especially Julie Zimmerman and Margaret Mills. https://lnkd.in/gC8vwbjC The article is Free to Read.

ICYMI last week over the Thanksgiving holiday...please check out and share our Viewpoint article in ES&T. We posit that Green Stormwater Infrastructure is and can do much to improve water quality and climate resilience, but its greatest opportunity is as public health infrastructure to advance advance environmental justice and improve the social environmental determinants of health. https://lnkd.in/gP-9-wuf #stormwater #stormwatermanagement #greeninfrastructure

In a groundbreaking initiative, researchers from Trinity's School of Engineering have embarked on a mission to transform #wastewater treatment in rural Ireland. Their nature-based solution uses willow trees. Funded by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Ireland and Leitrim County Council, this endeavour is led by Professors Laurence Gill and John Gallagher. Prof. Laurence Gill said: “Large parts of the country are covered in soils that are unsuitable for the discharge of wastewater from septic tanks serving rural domestic houses that have no main sewer to connect to. This is an area of significant environmental concern in terms of ongoing pollution of both surface water and groundwater resources, and is also blocking many planning applications for rural development. “These full-scale field trials will determine whether willow trees in sealed basins can act as effective zero discharge systems, thereby providing a passive, nature based solution to this growing environmental problem.” Read more about this #TrinityResearch at: https://lnkd.in/e2ntwdHf

Save the date: CS4Water Conference 2025! Join us for the inaugural Citizen Science 4 Water (#CS4Water) Conference that will be held 3-5 June 2025 in #Delft, The Netherlands. The conference will focus on the crucial role #CitizenScience plays within #water #resource #monitoring, #management & #governance as well as #community-led #actions. Together, we will explore how citizen science can help us achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (#SDGs) around the world and future-proof healthy water bodies for generations to come. For this inaugural CS4Water conference, we will focus on #freshwater systems, diving into engaging workshop sessions, exploring innovative research, and connecting international water and citizen science experts. The CS4Water conference aims to: · Promote collaborative research and knowledge sharing, fostering collaboration among an international community of scientists, practitioners, and citizens and communities to advance cooperative freshwater monitoring and management. · Empower communities and institutions, boosting discourse surrounding decision-making, communication, and governance in the water commons to help restore, design, and ensure resilient freshwater bodies, groundwater, wetlands and deltas for the future of people and planet. · Advance sustainable solutions to the freshwater crises, co-exploring innovative, sustainable, citizen science-driven strategies for achieving the SDGs, especially in the Global South, and safeguarding water into the future. This conference is co-organised by IHE Delft Institute for Water Education Delft; PULSAQUA; Delft University of Technology; Earthwatch Europe; GroundTruth and WaterLab. Follow us here & bookmark the conference page: https://lnkd.in/d8ffkncm #CS4Water, #CitizenScience, #OpenScience, #SDG6, #conference, #communities, #action, #freshwater, #groundwater, #wetlands, #delta

NY Harbor is the foundation of Matrix’s story. Our professionals passionately deliver work that protects the Harbor – crosses the Harbor – accentuates the Harbor – and embraces the Harbor. Our legacy includes more than 30 years of NY Harbor engagement, and when Superstorm Sandy hit the region our legacy was recognized, called into action, and sowed the seeds for a NY Harbor Coastal Resiliency practice that is second to none. In the decade since Superstorm Sandy arrived, we have engaged in public and private coastal resiliency engagements that include marquee projects such as Seaport/FiDi Coastal Resiliency, Battery Park City Authority Resiliency, NYC Raise the Shorelines, NJDEP’s Hudson and New Meadowlands Rebuild by Design projects, and Hunts Point Resiliency. Our practice includes support for private interests concerned about protecting their investments from coastal storm surge and sea level rise, those committed to natural solutions such as living shorelines and coastal wetland restoration, and institutions that are addressing the root causes of climate change by delivering clean offshore wind energy through the Harbor and into the NYC grid. In short, we LOVE NY Harbor and have built a practice that reflects our passion. Reach out to us to tap into our expertise and passion. Visit our website to connect and to read more about these projects and our service offerings. https://lnkd.in/eD_xmpK4 #progressthroughmatrix #coastalresiliency #climatechange #nyharbor #nyc #waterfront #osw
