O wners , D evelopers & M anagers By Frank Brockerhoff, Brockerhoff Environmental Services LLC What is a Licensed Site Remediation Professional (LSRP)?
A
Licensed Site Reme- diation Professional (LSRP) is an experi-
of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) rules and regula- tions. Each LSRP is required to maintain their license by attending courses on various subjects including regulatory, technical and ethics topics. An LSRP facilitates completion of the remediation process by working directly with the RP and eliminating red tape, which was typically not the case when Sites were overseen by NJDEP. Similar programs in Massa- chusetts and Connecticut have been in place for a number of years and have successfully demonstrated expedited clean- ups of contaminated Sites.
In 2009, the Site Remediation Reform Act (SRRA) went into effect and resulted in signifi- cant changes to the NJDEP’s Site Remediation Program. Perhaps the greatest change was the establishment of the LSRP Program which trans- fers the primary oversight responsibility of contaminat- ed Sites from the NJDEP to LSRPs. LSRPs are overseen by a LSRP Licensing Board, which is responsible for licensing and auditing the performance of LSRPs. SRRA also outlined a code of conduct which includes a requirement that an LSRP’s overall highest priority is the
protection of public health and the environment. As of May 7, 2012, with lim- ited exceptions, all remedial ac- tivities conducted in the State of New Jersey, are to proceed under the supervision of a LSRP. LSRPs work with RPs to achieve key milestones within defined timeframes, such as completing a Site Investigation or Remedial Investigation, and implementing a Remedial Ac- tion and submitting documents to the NJDEP. Ultimately, however, it is the RP’s responsi- bility to meet their affirmative obligations with the NJDEP. Upon achieving all applicable

If the RAO includes the use of institutional or engineering controls to ensure protection of public health and the envi- ronment, the LSRP issues a restricted use RAO and will re- main involved in any required post-RAO monitoring and sub- mittals. If all remediation stan- dards have been achieved and no institutional or engineering controls are deemed necessary, then an unrestricted use RAO is issued and environmental work at the Site or area of con- cern is deemed to be complete. Selection of the correct LSRP is critical to establishing a cost effective and efficient reme- dial strategy. Therefore, a RP should thoroughly evaluate who they select to fulfill this important role. Frank Brockerhoff is the owner and principal of Brockerhoff Environ- mental Services LLC in Washington, NJ.
