We're pleased to have been providing geotechnical consulting services as well as material and inspection testing services for EllisDon Infrastructure Healthcare (EDIH) as they construct the new South Niagara Hospital near the QEW in Niagara Falls. With a full scope of hospital services and 469 single patient bedrooms, this facility is set to become an integral part of the healthcare system in Niagara Region when it opens in 2028. You can read more about the project in their January newsletter or watch it taking shape on a time-lapsed camera!

We're looking forward to even more in 2024! From 5 employees in 2017 to now over 140 engineers, geologists, hydrogeologists, environmentalists, building scientists, field and laboratory testing staff, we've continued to grow our comprehensive suite of services and our geographic presence in Vaughan, Cambridge, Barrie/Collingwood & Hamilton to provide our clients across southern Ontario with nearby cost-effective solutions, always following our motto - "Client First – Quality Always."

Coming soon... our same "Client First - Quality Always" dependable service as we prepare to unveil a fresh new look for DS Consultants Ltd.

Thanks to Bureau Veritas North America for organizing their Fall Science Summit on Nov. 16.  For one of the case study presentations, our own Rick Fioravanti was pleased to share some of the work the DS Consultants Ltd. team has been doing to remediate hexavalent chromium impacts in groundwater at a former automotive site in Milton.  A successful pilot of a pump and treat program in 2022 resulted in full implementation this past spring.  RSC filing for future residential use is expected in 2024-25.  DS has been providing a full suite of services at this site, including environmental, geotechnical, hydrogeological and materials inspection/testing.

Environmental Services Manager Rick Fioravanti is presenting Thursday, Nov. 16 at this year's Bureau Veritas North America Fall Science Summit. He'll be sharing a case study based on the successful pump and treat program DS implemented for a former Milton industrial site found to be contaminated with hexavalent chromium. He and Head of Risk Assessment Reese McMillan are looking forward to a full day of knowledge sharing. Also on the agenda: new developments in soil vapour intrusion assessment, contaminated site remediation, recent litigation, and more!
