March 14, 2025

Expanding Expertise

We’re proud to celebrate the recent achievements of our team members earning certifications that expand our expertise and enhance the value we provide to our clients.

Equipped with a certified leadership team reinforces our commitment to maintaining the highest industry standards.


Strengthening Our Capabilities in Pennsylvania

We’re excited to announce that our Executive Vice President, Kevin Kleaka, P.G., has officially earned his Professional Geologist (PG) license in Pennsylvania! This milestone further strengthens Impact Environmental’s capabilities, especially as we expand into the Pennsylvania market following our acquisition of PT Consultants.

With our new South New Jersey office just outside of Philadelphia, we are now positioned to take on more complex Act 2 Land Recycling Program projects, which require PG oversight to ensure compliance and environmental integrity.

In Pennsylvania, a Professional Geologist is required for any site characterization and remediation projects that involve geologic or hydrogeologic conditions. This includes:
Groundwater and soil contamination assessments
Fate and transport modeling
Hydrogeologic studies

Additionally, Kevin’s PG certification allows Impact Environmental to sign off on critical reports, including:
Site Characterization Reports (SCR)
Remedial Investigation Reports (RIR)
Risk Assessment Reports involving geologic/hydrogeologic data
Final Reports that include geologic/hydrogeologic conclusions

Kevin’s expertise and leadership ensure that we can confidently manage Pennsylvania-based remediation and land recycling projects, making an even greater impact in the region.


Advancing Health, Safety, and Industry Leadership

We’re also celebrating two additional major professional achievements within our team. Vice President, Greg Mendez-Chicas, CHMM along with Quality Control Manager, Matthew Grosseto, CHMM have both recently earned their Certified Hazardous Materials Manager (CHMM) certifications!

These certifications are a testament to our commitment to:
Protecting the well-being of our employees and partners
Ensuring strict adherence to regulatory and industry safety standards
Delivering top-tier environmental solutions with expert oversight

The addition of CHMMs are key certifications that enhance our ability to manage projects safely and efficiently.


Elevating Our Expertise to Serve You Better

At Impact Environmental, we recognize that our greatest asset is our people. As we continue to grow and take on increasingly complex projects, having certified experts leading the way ensures that we remain a trusted partner for clients seeking environmental compliance, remediation, and material solutions.

Congratulations to Kevin, Greg, and Matt for their hard work and dedication to professional development!  👏
