Hazardous Waste Expert Witnesses

Hazardous waste is found in many different industries, making hazardous waste expert witnesses an integral part of numerous types of lawsuits. Hazardous waste consulting may be sought out for court cases involving environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, water and waste treatment, environmental chemistry, hydrogeology, solid waste management, chemical engineering, geology, industrial hygiene, environmental health, civil engineering, toxicology, oil and gas, petroleum, mechanical engineering, construction, or forensic science, as well as many other types of industrial fields.

No matter how it is produced or used, hazardous waste must be disposed of in a manner that prevents exposure to employees, as well as the surrounding environment and its inhabitants. Hazardous waste expert witnesses are therefore often experienced with environmental health and safety, indoor air quality, and occupational safety and health (OSHA). Chemicals and other types of hazardous materials must be properly handled by industrial workers while utilizing specific types of safety equipment, as a failure to do so may result in chemical exposure, contamination, and other types of safety violations.

Hazardous waste expert witnesses may also be experienced with water and wastewater engineering, treatment plants, sewage systems, underground tanks, ground water, air pollution, chemical spills, chemical fires and explosions, insecticides, solvents, and other issues possibly related to hazardous waste litigation.
