Client Testimonials

"The Richmond Redevelopment Agency selected TerraTherm’s In Situ Thermal Desorption (ISTD) technology as the best value, lowest cost remediation alternative for its Terminal One Property remediation project. ISTD was compared against other in situ thermal remediation methods and excavation with off site waste disposal. We selected ISTD based on its guaranteed ability to achieve very low cleanup standards for all chlorinated solvent contamination, including vinyl chloride. TerraTherm’s ability to achieve residential cleanup standards translated into $5M of additional property value to the City of Richmond. The cleanup area was along the shore line, partially beneath a building, and below the groundwater table in very dense bay mud. The TerraTherm project team provided high value service, performed the project on time and within the fixed price budget. The City of Richmond is extremely pleased with the project outcome, as are our funding partners and insurance providers. The property can now be developed into residential condominiums."

"This has been a very exciting project, and at the end of this, Richmond is going to have a beautiful site with brand new housing with fantastic views.  It's been very challenging technically, and this is the kind of project that makes people want to be an engineer.  It's been a great project that I'm very excited to have worked on."
