?? Exploring the Underground with Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) ?? Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is an innovative, non-invasive technology that is revolutionizing industries by allowing us to "see" beneath the surface without excavation. Whether it’s mapping utilities, investigating geological structures, or inspecting infrastructure, GPR helps us make informed decisions—saving time, money, and reducing risk. Here are just a few of the incredible applications of GPR: 1?? Utility Mapping: Detect and locate pipes, cables, and other underground infrastructure, ensuring safer excavation and preventing costly damages. 2?? Concrete Inspection: Identify rebar, voids, and cracks inside concrete structures—critical for maintaining the integrity of bridges, roads, and buildings. 3?? Environmental Surveys: Assess subsurface conditions for contamination, groundwater flow, and soil analysis—crucial for site development and remediation projects. 4?? Archaeological Investigations: Unearth ancient civilizations and historical artifacts without disturbing the site—preserving the past for future generations. GKL Environmental Consulting LLC just paired with American Geophysics, Inc. at a former industrial Site in Paterson. We were able to locate two (2) apparent former underground storage tank graves (the tanks had previously been removed) an what appeared to be shallow bedrock using GPR as seen in the images. They aren't just squiggly lines. They actually help to tell a story. GPR isn’t just a tool; it’s a game-changer in precision, safety, and efficiency. ?? If you haven’t yet explored how GPR can enhance your projects or business, it’s definitely worth considering. The future is beneath our feet! ?? #GroundPenetratingRadar #GPR #Innovation #Technology #NonDestructiveTesting #Infrastructure #EnvironmentalSurvey #Construction #UtilityMapping

?? Attention Environmental Professionals: Proposed Amendments to the Site Remediation Reform Act (SRRA) ?? The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) is seeking to amend the Site Remediation Reform Act (SRRA), a key piece of legislation that has shaped the landscape of environmental cleanup in the state. What You Need to Know: ? ·????The NJDEP has issued a rule proposal seeking to amend the regulations adopted in connection with the 2009 Site Remediation Reform Act (SRRA).? ? ·????Under current regulations, when a hazardous substance discharge is discovered at a New Jersey property, the person responsible must report it to the NJDEP or face significant penalties. The proposed new regulations seek to expand this reporting requirement to any person discovering a discharge as part of due diligence, as well as any other person with knowledge of the discharge. ? The proposal has been heavily criticized by attorneys and real estate industry groups, as it is expected to have a chilling effect on non-residential real estate transactions throughout the state. There are also numerous concerns about the proposal’s legality, including that the regulation exceeds NJDEP’s rulemaking authority. If you have questions about how this can completely turn the New Jersey Real Estateindustry upside down, reach out to GKL Environmental Consulting LLC #NJDEP #SRRA #SiteRemediation #EnvironmentalProfessionals #Sustainability #CleanEnergy #RegulatoryUpdates #EnvironmentalCleanup #BrownfieldRedevelopment https://lnkd.in/eSustiER

?? Attention Environmental Professionals: New Updates to the NJDEP Ground Water Quality Standards (GWQS)! ?? The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) has released important updates to the Ground Water Quality Standards (GWQS), impacting how we approach water quality management, environmental compliance, and remediation efforts across the state. Key changes include the reduction of the GWQS for seven (7) constituents by greater than an order of magnitude. In addition, the new GWQS for the most common contaminants of concern include: Benzene: 0.45 ug/l (ppb) Cobalt: 2 ug/l Perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA): 0.013 ug/l Tetrachloroethene: 0.4 ug/l Trichloroethene: 0.28 ug/l Vinyl Chloride: 0.035 ug/l The NJDEP's Remediation Standards allow for the existing GWQS to be used for six months, except where the GWQS has decreased by more than an order of magnitude. ?? What does this mean for you? Environmental consultants and engineers: Stay ahead of the curve with new compliance strategies. Businesses and industries: Be proactive about monitoring and updating your water quality practices to align with the new standards. Public health advocates: The revised standards will directly impact the safety and accessibility of clean drinking water. These changes emphasize the importance of keeping water quality in check and adapting our strategies to meet evolving environmental standards. Let's stay informed, compliant, and continue driving positive environmental impact! Do you need sound advice about the process.

What a nice tranquil forested piece of property, right? Well if you assumed that, you would be wrong. While it is a nice tranquil piece of property currently, this Site once contained a gas station, two houses with potable wells and septic systems, and was historically utilized for agricultural purposes. Luckily, due diligence performed by GKL Environmental Consulting LLC at this property identified the previous cleanups performed at the Site and recommended further investigations regarding the historic pesticide use. Have you performed your due diligence on a prospective purchase? If not, you could have a lot of potential environmental liability that you would be responsible for after closing! Reach out to GKL Environmental Consulting LLC for great rates and even better service to assess your liability! #duediligence#remediation#environmentalinvestigation

?? EPA Takes a Bold Step to Protect Public Health and the Environment! ???? The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has officially banned perchloroethylene (PCE) and trichloroethylene (TCE)—two toxic chemicals linked to serious health risks like cancer and environmental contamination. These harmful substances, commonly found in dry cleaning and industrial processes, have posed risks to communities and natural resources for decades. This decision represents a major win for environmental justice, public health, and climate resilience as industries shift toward safer alternatives and cleaner practices. ?? ? Key Impacts: ?? Reducing harmful exposures to vulnerable communities. ?? Addressing legacy pollution and groundwater contamination. ?? Paving the way for innovation with green chemistry alternatives. The ban signals the beginning of a safer, more sustainable path forward. Let’s support efforts to ensure these changes lead to cleaner water, healthier communities, and a greener economy. Most people are exposed to these chemicals, especially PCE and don't even know it. While TCE is mainly used as an industrial chemical and a very common metal degreaser, PCE is the main chemical used in dry cleaning, and trace amounts remain in clothing and will volatilize once those items are brought into your house! These compounds are also difficult to remediate once they enter the environment as they are Dense Non-Aqueous Phase Liquids (DNAPL) which sink in the water column. Do you have concerns regarding PCE and TCE? Reach out to GKL Environmental Consulting LLC for sound advice and options. See the below link for more information regarding the ban. https://lnkd.in/gPgCsja9 #EPA #PCE #TCE #EnvironmentalHealth #PublicHealth #CleanWater #EnvironmentalJustice #Sustainability #GreenChemistry #ClimateAction #PolicyChange #SaferAlternatives #Innovation #CleanEnvironment

Environmental Consultants and LSRP's are often placed at the confluence of events or requirements. Managing and weighing regulatory requirements vs. safety, or the need to collect usable data vs. the ability to collect a sample where the regulatory body requires you to do so. As seen in the photos, a complex urban Site created it's own issues. Previous investigations did not complete the delineation of contamination in groundwater before the Site was redeveloped. And following the remediation, to say a few utilities were installed where groundwater monitoring wells are needed is an understatement. However, GKL Environmental Consulting LLC was able to think outside the box and install the wells to collect data that can be used to try and bring this urban Site to closure! Do you have a complex situation and want an expert opinion on the best way to remediate it? Reach out to GKL Environmental Consulting LLC today! And a special shout out to Substrata Technologies Inc for the great work. Thanks to our constant communication and joint coordination, we were able to get the work done under budget and quicker than anticipated! #Groundwater #Remediation #Hydrogeology #Innovation

Food for thought, As many of you know, the passage of the new affordable housing law marks a significant step forward in addressing the critical housing needs of our communities. This legislation aims to increase access to affordable housing options, ensuring that more families can find a place to call home. As we know, affordable housing is not just a policy issue—it's a fundamental human right. This law provides vital resources for developers, encourages innovative housing solutions, and emphasizes collaboration between local governments and community organizations. While this may be a much simpler task in urban areas, where there are a myriad of options to generate affordable housing, this becomes much more difficult in the more rural areas of our state. Let’s celebrate this progress and continue advocating for inclusive, sustainable, common sense growth in our neighborhoods. Together, we can create a brighter future where everyone has access to safe and affordable housing! ???
