Dear RemTEC Summit Participants,

Welcome to the 2021 RemTEC Summit, a virtual event for the first time since 2009. We are proud to co-chair this remarkable forum which features key advances in the environmental science and remediation industry.

Since its inception, the RemTEC Summit has delivered a truly unique platform focused on advancing the environmental science and remediation industry. This year, with the help of our scientific advisory board, we have organized an incredible line-up of speakers from the academic, consulting and regulatory communities! We are confident you will leave this event well informed and enthusiastic about applying the latest advances to your own environmental remediation projects.

Even though this is a virtual event, we encourage you to take advantage of all the networking opportunities made available to you via the Summit’s unique broadcasting platform. You will have the opportunity to interact with environmental remediation experts from North America, Europe and Australia.

Thank you for investing in yourself and your organization by attending the 2021 RemTEC Summit. It is our sincere hope that you will leave better informed, better connected and better prepared to meet your environmental remediation challenges.

We combine technical excellence with strategic thinking to chart the most efficient path to site closure.The journey from remediation to site closure is increasingly difficult in today’s regulatory environment. With cleanup standards often lower than what typical remediation technologies can deliver, and a lack of public awareness that cleanup can take decades, the road to regulatory site closure can be challenging. Further complicating site remediation may be the need to access contaminated areas off-site, requiring community or landowner engagement. Moreover, cleanup budgets are often fixed, and contaminated site owners are under continual pressure to find efficient solutions.

Haley & Aldrich’s environmental remediation experts develop custom solutions that are tailored to your needs, as well as those of your stakeholders. We know that on the path to closure, off-the-shelf technologies are often not effective. That is why our minds are always churning — continually seeking ways to not only use the latest remediation tools and technology, but to apply them in new, innovative ways. We also partner with leading research organizations to develop innovative remediation solutions and facilitate technology transfer for practical applications at remediation sites.

POSTER PRESENTATIONSEach student will prepare and present a poster of their research. Students will have the opportunity to showcase their posters and network with attendees virtually. Posters will be displayed in the virtual platform February 2021 through February 2022.

FLASH POSTER PRESENTATIONSThe top 20 student participants will receive 60 seconds to promote their presentation to the virtual general session. This is a once in a lifetime chance to get in front of your potential future employers, colleagues and peers. Addressing all confer-ence participants with a short summary of your poster presentation is just one way you’ll be able to get everyone excited about your research and findings.

1-ON-1 CAREER PLANNINGEach student will have the opportunity to participate in a one-on-one virtual meeting with a student mentor. Student mentors will range from academic leaders to high level environmental professionals and engineers to government officials and regulatory community leaders. This unique opportunity gives each student the chance interact and meet with someone that is putting their education and experience to work in the environmental science and remediation field.

STUDENT AWARDSThe student program concludes with the announcement of the student competition winners on Thursday, March 11 at 12:30 PM ET, just following the keynote presentation. Judged on the relevance of theme and topic, organiza tion of poster presentation, research techniques and overall excellence, three students will be awarded up to $500 cash prizes for the best student presenta-tions! All winners will also receive certificates and recognition on the RemTEC Summit website.
