Ms. Marshtein brings to SCS over 20 years of experience in the environmental engineering field. She is the office manager for SCS’ newly opened Charleston, South Carolina office. Her expertise is in property transfers, including Phase I and II process, with an emphasis on Brownfield redevelopment. Her responsibilities have included Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs), subsurface investigations, and conducting underground storage tank (UST) closures, assessments, and cleanups, geotechnical soil analyses, asbestos laboratory management, vibration monitoring during construction, supervising geotechnical drilling, soil classifications, NPDES permits, and various other environmental tasks. Examples of her project experience include:
Charleston, SC - Assisted the Griffith Company with the purchase of a closed Charleston County Landfill. Completed the Phase I ESA and initial sampling. Aided in negotiations with state regulators to define the Voluntary Cleanup Contract. Conducted the groundwater assessment, ongoing groundwater monitoring, surface water and sediment impact assessments to nearby rivers, creeks and wetlands, and assessed site soil conditions. In addition, designed and implemented the initial methane monitoring program for the closed landfill.
North Charleston, SC - Designed a hydrogeological assessment in order to determine the likelihood of environmental impact by chlorinated solvents to the site by releases at adjoining facilities.
Rock Hill, NC - Assisted a client who is developing a residential community next to a former factory with an ongoing cleanup under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). We have assisted the client with defining the extent of migration on to his property, with negotiations with the Responsible Party, and subdividing his property to allow for funding of the non-impacted portion.
