Environmental Consulting
Amentum offers expert environmental consulting services, guiding clients through regulatory compliance, environmental impact assessments, and sustainability initiatives. Our team collaborates closely with clients to develop tailored solutions that meet regulatory requirements and promote environmental stewardship. We have a proven track record of assisting clients in navigating complex regulatory landscapes, securing necessary permits, and maintaining compliance with local, state, and federal environmental regulations.
Amentum has the multidisciplinary skills to handle all technical aspects of radiation protection and site remediation. We assemble teams with a very diverse mix of skills including radiometrics, radiation protection and also physics modelling capability, where we use Monte Carlo techniques to predict what a detector would see when it was looking at material in a certain geometry.
We have operatives with years of site experience who know how to deal with problems safely and all the elements of this multi-disciplinary team are available to us in-house.
We have helped to clean up and restore radiologically contaminated sites such as Dalgety Bay in Scotland, where potentially dangerous radium residues were discovered in 1990, not far from a former airfield where radium-coated ‘glow in the dark’ aircraft dials and instruments were incinerated and landfilled at the end of the second world war. Our team designed instrumentation to detect and segregate radioactive sources in excavated material, considerably reducing waste disposal costs.
To us, the restoration of nuclear sites is not an end but a means to create new economic opportunities. Our experts survey nuclear sites to determine their suitability for new developments, from deployment of small modular reactors, a base for renewables such as solar or wind, and other commercial uses.
