Formation of New Jersey Licensed Site Remediation Professionals Association Is Announced

MOUNT LAUREL, NJ, May 18 (MARKET WIRE) --
Ewire -- The New Jersey Licensed Site Remediation Professionals
Association, Inc. is proud to announce its formation. The association was
created in response to the recent enactment of the Site Remediation
Reform Act, which was signed into law by Governor Jon S. Corzine on May
7, 2009. The Site Remediation Reform Act creates a licensing program for
site remediation professionals (Licensed Site Remediation Professionals,
or LSRPs) to foster the cleanup of contaminated properties in New Jersey.

Currently, site remediation professionals work in both the public and
private sector to investigate and clean up contaminated sites in New
Jersey. The profession relies on highly skilled and experienced
professionals from many scientific and engineering disciplines. The LSRP
Association is dedicated to the professional development of its members
through education, information sharing, networking and other efforts to
help its members maintain and improve their professional skills.

According to Nick DeRose, a Senior Principal at Langan Engineering and a
leader of the LSRP Association Steering Committee, "The LSRP Association
will work to advance the practice of the LSRPs to serve our New Jersey
communities and stakeholders, as well as to foster its members'
professional development. Our mission includes promoting standards of care
and the use of informed professional judgment by LSRPs to protect public
health, safety and the environment."

According to Sue Boyle, senior environmental practice leader at GEI
Consultants and another leader of the Steering Committee, "The enactment
of the Site Remediation Reform Act significantly changes how site cleanups
will be administered in New Jersey, and places responsibility on LSRPs to
uphold the code of conduct that will be established by the state's
Licensing Board. The LSRP Association will serve as a trade association
for the profession and will be an important voice for LSRPs with the New
Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and the Licensing Board."
