Regulatory Compliance
Guiding Clients Through Complex Environmental Regulations With Confidence
Environmental regulations are constantly evolving, and navigating them requires a combination of technical expertise, regulatory insight, and practical field experience. RCC provides comprehensive regulatory compliance services that help clients meet their obligations efficiently, minimize risk, and keep projects moving forward. Whether addressing site contamination, overseeing closure requirements, or coordinating with state and federal agencies, our team ensures that compliance is never an obstacle to progress.
What is ISRA?
New Jersey’s Industrial Site Recovery Act (ISRA)—formerly the Environmental Cleanup Responsibility Act (ECRA)—requires certain industrial facilities to complete environmental investigation and, if necessary, remediation before a property can close, be sold, or transfer operations.
ISRA is typically triggered by events such as:
Business sales or mergers
Facility shutdowns or bankruptcies
Property sales or lease terminations
The law applies to facilities with specific NAICS codes and those engaged in operations involving hazardous substances. Compliance is overseen by both the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) and a Licensed Site Remediation Professional (LSRP).
How RCC Can Help?
With decades of experience and a team of certified LSRPs, RCC provides full-service support through every phase of the ISRA process—from applicability determination to final case closure.
RCC assists clients in meeting all NJDEP requirements, from initial ISRA applicability reviews through investigation, remediation, and final sign-off. Our team stays ahead of regulatory changes and provides practical options that align with corporate, development, and compliance goals.
Whether managing tight regulatory deadlines, preparing ISRA submissions, coordinating with NJDEP, or completing remedial investigations, RCC ensures your project moves forward efficiently and without unnecessary risk.

How SRRA Changed the Process
With the passage of the Site Remediation Reform Act (SRRA), New Jersey established a licensed-professional model for overseeing cleanups. Responsible parties are now required to hire an LSRP to direct all phases of the investigation and remediation process. SRRA eliminated the voluntary cleanup program and replaced it with a clear, affirmative obligation to remediate discharges in a timely and compliant manner.
