• Environmental Monitoring Programs

  G3 Consulting - environmental effects, risk assessment, or trend monitoring programs.

  Environmental monitoring programs are designed and implemented to define effects of industrial/municipal operations on the receiving environment (e. g., pulpmill effluent discharge). These programs encompass a broad range of disciplines from engineering and statistics to fisheries and limnology. Effects monitoring programs generally span a number of years and require the management of numerous logistical details and personnel. G3 has developed data management and handling criteria with rigorous Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) measures ensuring a high level of data confidence.

  Trend monitoring programs encompass the comprehensive monitoring of industrial receiving environment constituents, both temporally and spatially. Many of these programs are conducted on behalf of the pulp and paper, forestry and mining industries, and are designed to assess changes in environmental matrices as a result of industrial process changes. G3 is focused on appropriate study design integrity and program sensitivity which are paramount in that program results are often disseminated to public interest groups and the media. These programs often require the analysis of a wide variety of environmental components including sediments, receiving water, effluents, and biological samples (vegetation, invertebrates, fish, benthos, periphyton, and crab tissue, etc.). Ultratrace dissection, handling and analyses of many of the samples collected necessitated the development of exacting protocols for field, laboratory, and data handling. G3 conducts ongoing marine and terrestrial evaluations on behalf of government and industry.

  G3 personnel are specialists in studies of this scope and work with government and industry to develop scientifically-sound programs which comply with or supersede environmental regulations and policies. Areas of specialty include pulp and paper, forestry, mining, petroleum and fisheries-based programs.
