Our Services
Developing innovative strategies and sustainable solutions, from initial assessment through final remediation, all under one roof.
EcoSource Consultants
Environmental consulting, site assessments, regulatory compliance, and in-house environmental drilling
Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessments
Thorough records review, site reconnaissance, and interviews per ASTM E1527-21 standards. We identify recognized environmental conditions (RECs) to protect your real estate investment and satisfy lender requirements for due diligence.
Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessments
Intrusive investigation including soil borings, groundwater monitoring wells, and laboratory analysis to confirm or deny presence of contamination identified in Phase 1 findings. We develop sampling strategies tailored to your site's unique conditions.
Environmental Real Estate Due Diligence
Comprehensive property evaluations for buyers, sellers, and lenders. We assess environmental liabilities, regulatory history, and potential cleanup costs, giving you a clear picture before closing on a transaction.
Contaminated Site Assessment & Remediation
Full-scope contamination investigation, risk assessment, and Iowa DNR-approved corrective action plans. From initial delineation through no-further-action status, we manage the entire remediation lifecycle to restore your site and close your case.
Asbestos & Lead Inspections
Inspections for asbestos-containing materials and lead-based paint in commercial and residential properties, performed by asbestos inspectors licensed in Iowa and staff trained for XRF lead surveys. Our reports include detailed findings, lab results, and recommended abatement strategies, and we provide asbestos abatement oversight during the work.
UST Closures & Compliance
Complete underground storage tank lifecycle management: compliance inspections per Iowa Administrative Code 567 Chapter 135, closure-in-place, tank removal, site investigation, and Iowa DNR Tier 1/Tier 2 risk assessments.
SPCC Plans & Stormwater Management
Development and implementation of Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure plans required under 40 CFR 112. We also prepare stormwater pollution prevention plans (SWPPPs) and manage NPDES permit compliance for your facility.
Wetland & Water Quality Assessments
Wetland delineation per U.S. Army Corps of Engineers methodology, jurisdictional determinations, and Section 404 permit support. Stream and water quality monitoring including baseline surveys and construction-phase compliance.
Emergency Response
24/7 emergency spill response for petroleum releases, chemical spills, and hazardous material incidents. Our trained crews deploy containment, recovery, and cleanup measures to minimize environmental impact and regulatory exposure.
Regulatory Compliance Consulting
Navigate complex EPA, Iowa DNR, and OSHA environmental regulations with expert guidance. We perform compliance audits, develop management plans, and represent your interests in regulatory interactions and permit applications.
In-House Environmental Drilling
We own and operate our own drilling equipment, staffed by State of Iowa Certified Well Contractors. Monitoring well installation, vapor well installation, soil borings, split spoon and Shelby tube sampling, hydrogeologic investigations, and drinking water well abandonments per Iowa DNR requirements, all on our schedule rather than a subcontractor's.
Learning & Development
Training delivered by our own certified staff: SPCC annual training, UST operator training, certified first aid and AED training, and water quality implementation and training. We also provide public outreach and speaking for community and industry groups.
USDA HBIIP Environmental Reports
Environmental reports for fuel retailers and distributors applying to the USDA Higher Blends Infrastructure Incentive Program. We prepare the environmental documentation the program requires so your grant application moves forward without delay.
