Costs from environmental incidents can quickly spiral out of control, compounding a challenging situation and forcing businesses to make difficult financial decisions. Cost containment and inventory control are seldom top of mind for businesses in environmental incidents, yet overall costs are needed to report to executive management, governmental agencies and other stakeholders. GRS helps clients keep their focus on restoration and recovery, so they can get back to business quickly.
Environmental mishaps such as oil and chemical spills don’t recognize boundaries or respect others’ property. Third-party liability is a major risk in environmental incidents. GRS has been applying its tools and knowledge to mitigate third-party liability risks for decades.
Class-action lawsuits, individual litigation, mediation and arbitration all add to the stress arising from environmental incidents. GRS provides expert support with thorough claims documentation and quick and fair settlement practices.
Environmental emergencies give rise to confusion and questions, for the businesses involved as well as the wider community. GRS’ Call Center operations, customized for each client, maintain vital flows of information.
