Neptune’s team of toxicologists, risk assessors, modelers, and statisticians supports human health risk assessment by applying state-of-the-art risk assessment tools to support all phases of risk management, including:
Calculation of site-specific risk-based screening values and performance of screening level risk assessments under applicable regulatory guidance;
Performance of probabilistic human health risk assessments;
Application of a toolbox of contaminant transport models (e.g., Multimed, MEPAS, HELP, RESRAD, MODFLOW, ArcInfo GRID, HSSM, USGS MOC) to support risk assessments;
Development of project-specific contaminant transport and risk models to support risk management decisions at complex sites;
Integration of risk assessment with performance assessment of radioactive and other hazardous waste;
Analysis of relative risk associated with remedial decision alternatives;
Integration of risk assessment with decision analysis;
Determination of data needs using risk assessment integrated with value-of-information analysis; and,
Toxicological evaluations.
Sample projects include the following:
