Superfund Sites

Although there are fewer Superfund sites than State hazardous waste sites, Superfund sites tend to have a disproportionate affect on people and companies. Our engineers and hydrogeologists have worked on fifteen Superfund sites. Should you become part of a Superfund site study, we can complete the remedial investigation, feasibility study, and remedial design. If the Superfund site work is being done by others, we can help you determine the extent of your responsibility, control costs and shorten site cleanup. We also can supervise the work being done by others and help you identify other responsible parties to share site costs.

Groundwater Supply Development

Our hydrogeologists and engineers are skilled in locating groundwater supplies and in designing groundwater treatment systems to improve groundwater quality. We use advanced computer analyses and remote sensing techniques to locate water supplies. After water supply development, we can help you protect the water supply using wellhead protection best management practices and technologies.

Groundwater Flow Modeling

Computer modeling is a major tool in understanding and managing groundwater. Computer models are used to assess and set environmental cleanup goals.

Aries has extensive formal training as well as practical experience in computer modeling. We have successfully conducted hundreds of groundwater computer modeling projects of flow, pathline analysis, solute transport, and chemical fate.

Aries uses state-of-the-art graphical modeling tools to develop, test and run groundwater models. Graphical visualization of model results is the key to communicating the significance of the results to other project personnel such as design engineers, owners and regulators. Additionally, Aries' formal training in computer modeling and GIS gives us the flexibility to create new tools to process and analyze data, allowing us to complete a project properly and efficiently.

Aries has helped our clients to efficiently resolve environmental problems through the use of groundwater modeling and GIS to:
