The NJDEP requires that all remediation projects retain an LSRP. If you are a property owner, municipality, school, or other entity in any way responsible for the cleanup of a contaminated site in New Jersey, it is likely that your project requires an LSRP.
LSRPs provide regulatory management, investigation and remediation oversight, and case closure by issuing a Response Action Outcome (RAO) letter. LSRPs select site remedies and expedite the investigation, remediation, and closure of soil and groundwater cleanups.
There are more than 700 active LSRPs in New Jersey. So, how do you select the right one? Here is some guidance to select the LSRP best suited for your project.
Ask The Right Questions
- What is the LSRP’s area of expertise?
- How many RAOs has the LSRP issued and for what type of projects?
- Does the LSRP utilize their right to exercise professional judgement? Or are they more rigid in their decision-making? ESA believes that LSRPs who exercise professional judgement to assist their clients are often the key to success in achieving regulatory compliance and meeting client’s project goals.

- You will save time and money. The duration of your project will be reduced by as much as 50% when compared to NJDEP’s former case management system, and you will pay fewer NJDEP fees versus the former system
