Technical Consultation

The Department has established a process to allow Licensed Site Remediation Professionals (LSRPs) and remediating parties to meet with experienced DEP staff to ask site specific technical questions.  This process will not be used to address regulatory or administrative issues such as timeframes, fee, forms or extensions.  This service is being offered for new cases (that have initiated remediation after November 4, 2009) or existing cases (initiated remediation before November 4, 2009) that have opted in to the LSRP program. 

Technical Consultation is not being offered for existing cases that have not opted in to the LSRP program.  Case specific questions must be directed to the assigned case manager.

Technical Consultation sessions will be held in face-to-face meetings to discuss technical issues related to the remediation of a site.  These consultations will assist compliance with the Department’s applicable Site Remediation rule requirements and technical guidance.  

This new service is part of the Department’s “compliance assistance” approach and will allow LSRPs and remediating parties to move forward with confidence.  The program will facilitate the transition from the old SRP paradigm to the new LSRP program.  Technical Consultation is free of charge and will take place at the DEP Headquarters Building located at 401 East State Street, Trenton.
