Air Quality Management
Facility Siting Studies
WESTON delivers
infrastructure redevelopment solutions that help clients meet their
most critical goals. As part of this process, WESTON conducts facility
siting studies to determine the best location for construction or
facility expansion.
Siting studies
may include an assessment of the regulatory environment, schedule,
and cost to obtain:
-
Environmental
permits
-
Resource availability
evaluations
-
Baseline monitoring
-
File
searches
-
Records review
-
Site
inspections.
Typically, one
of the longest lead times associated with construction is obtaining
environmental permits. Of these, air permitting via the "Notice
to Construct" or construction permit requires substantial pre-construction
effort. We work with our clients' engineers, designers, and
managers as well as local regulatory agencies during the pre-construction
phase of the project to develop an efficient strategy for determining
the best site.
Additional work
such as screening, dispersion modeling,
permit negotiations, and additional
air pollution control device design
may be required in order to site the facility to meet our clients'
goals.
