James A. LaRegina, P.G.
Senior Project Manager
Mr. LaRegina has provided private and public sector clients with professional consulting services including soil and groundwater characterization and remediation, due diligence, permitting, and training.
As a Senior Project Manager with HRG, Mr. LaRegina has managed multi-discipline project teams and a wide variety of projects ranging from time-sensitive real estate transaction due diligence assessments to long-term, complex Superfund studies with multi-million dollar budgets. Mr. LaRegina understands that developing a solution to meet a client’s need requires not only technical and regulatory knowledge but an understanding of a client’s business objectives and risk tolerance.
His projects incorporate three key elements: 1) Use available data first to develop a Conceptual Site Model tailored to the client’s site, then collect new data only where needed information is lacking or incomplete; 2) Whenever possible, use cost-effective field screening techniques to develop site understanding, not just site data; and 3) Communicate findings in a clear and concise document to enable each stakeholder to take the action needed to implement the desired solution.
