As a geosciences and engineering consulting firm, INTERA is a leader in the development and application of numerical models and other decision support tools to help meet environmental, water resource, and waste isolation challenges. INTERA applies these same quantitative skills to the design and implementation of soil and groundwater investigations and remedial actions to address affected environmental media, the collection and analysis of hydrologic data to support water planning, and the hydrogeologic characterization and performance assessment analyses needed to demonstrate the long-term safety of waste repositories.
