Environmental Engineering
GCE's environmental engineers and qualified professionals handle the full spectrum of site assessment, soil management, and remediation work, from initial due diligence through regulatory sign-off.
Helping clients safely and confidently proceed with their infrastructure projects
GCE's environmental team supports projects from initial due diligence through active remediation and regulatory close-out. We conduct Phase One and Two Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs), manage excess soils through the full suite of planning documents (APUs, SAPs, SCRs, and ESDARs), and provide Qualified Person (QP) services under Ontario Regulations 153/04 and 406/19. We also handle Records of Site Conditions (RSCs), contaminant delineation and remediation, underground storage tank (UST) decommissioning, environmental baseline studies, and soil, water, and air quality sampling.
What Each Service Entails

We prepare the full suite of required excess soil documentation (APUs, SAPs, SCRs, and ESDARs) with a site-specific focus. Every report is structured to meet your project's regulatory requirements from the start, not retrofitted to fit them.
Whether you need a due diligence investigation, a planning requirement fulfilled, or an assessment for a real estate or financing transaction, GCE is a single-source provider for your Environmental Site Assessment needs.
Our Qualified Persons bring deep regulatory knowledge and hands-on project experience to navigate Ontario's environmental requirements. We manage project milestones with precision and keep your timelines on track through every phase of the process.
