Health and Environmental Risk Assessments

• Current regulations, as well as the litigious nature of our modern society, have resulted in increasingly complex approaches to defining the impact of chemicals in the environment. The Health and Environmental Risk Assessment has emerged as one of the most powerful approaches to assist industry (and regulators) in the evaluation of risks associated with chemical hazards. It has become the basis for evaluating 'How Clean is Clean,' or 'When is it Safe,' particularly when government standards are not available.
  
  Roux Associates is retained by major industrial clients and law firms to evaluate potential exposure impacts from chemicals released to the environment. We employ risk management specialists to provide professional consulting services and management programs to help clients manage their environmental risks.
  
  Our Risk Assessments play a critical role in negotiated settlements and litigation at hazardous waste sites. They are used to define 'reasonable' cleanup levels. And they help to avoid unnecessary expenses associated with implementing inappropriate remediation actions. Risk Assessments conducted by Roux Associates employ sound multi-disciplinary principles which can be presented during negotiations or defended in court.
