what we do

Field Services
Field Services provides sample collection, field testing and sample transportation services for clients who wish to contract professional environmental sample collection expertise. With a fleet of 4 specially-equipped vehicles and an extensive inventory of sampling and field monitoring equipment, TALEM is ready to support a wide array of sample collection and environmental monitoring needs for both routine monitoring and emergency projects.

Our capabilities include grab and composite sampling of water, wastewater, groundwater, storm water, surface and subsurface soils and drummed wastes. TALEM also offers on-site testing services for selected analyses.
