Sampling Design, Conceptual Site Model (CSM) Development, and Fieldwork Execution
Precision in planning and execution is critical to credible PFAS data. NV5 designs and implements sampling programs tailored to each site’s unique geologic, hydrologic, and operational conditions.
Our teams integrate geospatial mapping, advanced analytical methods, and CSM development to understand PFAS distribution and fate. Field teams apply rigorous QA/QC procedures and PFAS-free best practices to ensure data integrity. The result: accurate, defensible datasets that drive confident site management and remediation strategies.
Treatment Technology Evaluation & Implementation
NV5 evaluates, designs, and implements proven and emerging PFAS treatment technologies to meet client performance and sustainability goals.
Our engineers assess site-specific conditions and treatment objectives to select optimal solutions—ranging from granular activated carbon and ion exchange resins to advanced oxidation, foam fractionation, and destructive approaches.
We guide clients from bench-scale testing through full-scale system design, installation, and performance monitoring, ensuring cost-effective and regulatory-compliant outcomes.
Initial Assessment
Understanding the scope of PFAS impacts begins with a thorough, data-driven assessment. NV5’s experts conduct desktop reviews, site reconnaissance, and regulatory evaluations to determine the potential presence and pathways of PFAS within operations or the environment.
We identify data gaps, prioritize sampling areas, and provide clients with a clear picture of potential risk, liability, and compliance obligations—establishing a strong foundation for informed decision-making.
Grant Writing & Funding Allocation
Navigating PFAS response often requires creative funding solutions. NV5 helps clients secure and manage federal, state, and local funding to offset project costs and accelerate remediation.
Our specialists identify eligible programs, develop competitive grant applications, and provide the technical documentation needed for successful awards. Once funding is secured, we assist with allocation, compliance tracking, and reporting—ensuring projects meet both financial and environmental performance goals
Litigation & Risk Communication Support
PFAS issues extend beyond technical challenges—they impact public perception, regulatory relationships, and business continuity. NV5’s scientists, risk communicators, and subject matter experts support clients through every phase of litigation and stakeholder engagement.
We provide technical data packages, expert witness services, and clear, accessible communication strategies that translate complex science into actionable understanding.
Our goal: to protect client credibility, maintain transparency, and support informed, trust-based decision-making with regulators, communities, and investors.
