Solid Waste/Landfills

GZA has provided environmental investigation, engineering and design services on more than 500 solid waste management facilities nationwide. We help commercial, industrial, and municipal clients with the successful design, permitting, operation, and closure of a wide range of solid waste management facilities while limiting short- and long-term liability and achieving substantial operational capacity.

Technical acumen, innovation, and responsiveness—as well as a keen understanding of our clients’ business—are GZA trademarks.

The success of our practice is, in no small part, due to the strong relationships we have developed with EPA and state regulators; these relationships have been built on recognition and respect for GZA’s deep understanding of the regulations and of our practitioners’ technical skill. GZA has the proven ability to overcome regulatory hurdles common to solid waste facilities: demonstrated hybrid cap equivalency, negotiated Explanation of Significant Differences (ESDs), and Record of Decision (ROD) modifications to Superfund landfills.

Our portfolio includes landfill cell and closure design, ecological risk and restoration, and extensive brownfield and Superfund experience. Post-closure, GZA helps return the land to its highest-best use, including solar, conservation, recreation, and commercial opportunities.
