GSS designs and operates chemical water treatment programs for cooling towers, evaporative condensers, chillers, closed loops, steam boilers, and condensate return systems in government facilities. Every program begins with a baseline water chemistry analysis — hardness, alkalinity, chlorides, sulfates, silica, iron, pH, and conductivity — that establishes the Langelier Saturation Index (LSI) and Ryznar Stability Index (RSI) driving treatment chemistry selection and control parameter targets. We address existing system problems first: removing scale deposits, eliminating biofilm, and neutralizing corrosion byproducts before establishing the inhibitor and biocide programs that prevent them from returning. The result is a clean system operating within defined, documented parameters — not a chemical program layered on top of an already-degraded one.
Environmental compliance at a government facility is not a single program — it is a continuous obligation across every medium the facility touches: air emissions from boilers and generators, stormwater and process water discharges, hazardous waste generated by maintenance and operations, chemical inventories subject to EPCRA reporting, and contaminated sites carrying legacy liability under CERCLA or state cleanup programs. Add PFAS — per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances now regulated at the parts-per-trillion level in drinking water and increasingly in soil and groundwater — and the compliance landscape becomes one of the most technically demanding in the environmental field. GSS provides registered environmental professionals and licensed engineers who understand not just what the regulations require, but how government agencies are expected to implement them. Our programs are designed to protect public health, reduce lifecycle compliance costs, and produce the technically defensible data that holds up in regulatory submissions, enforcement proceedings, and litigation — because in government environmental work, the quality of your documentation is as important as the quality of your field work.
Science-based O&M programs that reduce energy and water consumption, extend equipment service life, and maintain regulatory compliance across all government building systems
In government environmental work, analytical data is not just a number on a report — it is the evidentiary foundation for compliance decisions, regulatory submissions, and, when necessary, enforcement proceedings and litigation. Data that cannot be defended — because the method was wrong, the chain of custody was broken, or the QA/QC documentation is incomplete — is worse than no data at all. GSS partners with NELAC/TNI-accredited analytical laboratories and operates all sampling programs under written Quality Assurance Project Plans (QAPPs) meeting EPA QA/R-5 requirements. Every sample is collected using EPA-approved methods, preserved correctly, documented with unbroken chain of custody, and analyzed within holding times — producing data of known and documented quality that satisfies the most rigorous regulatory and legal scrutiny.
HAZWOPER-certified response teams equipped for IDLH atmospheres, Level B/C PPE operations, and NRC-reportable release response — available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year

HAZWOPER-certified crews available for immediate deployment — chemical spills, contamination events, and environmental emergencies
GSS delivers OSHA-compliant and EPA-recognized training programs for government agency personnel responsible for environmental compliance, chemical handling, water system operation, and emergency response. All courses are taught by credentialed instructors with active field experience — not classroom-only trainers — and include site-specific content tailored to each agency's actual regulatory obligations and facility conditions.
GSS has partnered with industry leaders in water treatment chemistry, specialty maintenance formulations, and chemical supply. Every program is backed by partners with the technical depth to support complex government facility water systems — not just deliver drums of chemical on a schedule.
15+ years serving federal, state, and local government agencies as well as commercial clients across the country. Our staff understands FAR/DFARS compliance, GSA Schedule procurement, agency-specific directives, and the regulatory frameworks that govern both publicly and privately operated facilities.
HAZWOPER 40-hour certified response crews on standby around the clock. When a Legionella positive result comes back at 5 PM on a Friday, when a chemical release occurs during a holiday weekend, or when a regulatory deadline is 48 hours away — the difference between a contractor with credentials and a contractor with field experience becomes immediately apparent. Our personnel have managed these situations before. They know what to do, in what order, and why.
GSA Schedule, IDIQ, and BPA contract vehicles eliminate the need for lengthy competitive procurement for routine and emergency services. Contracting officers can issue task orders directly against existing vehicles.
Every service we deliver is governed by documented procedures, calibrated instruments, and a formal corrective action process under our ISO 9001:2015 certified Quality Management System — providing agencies with an auditable record of service quality.
Across 200+ completed government projects, GSS has maintained a 100% regulatory compliance rate. No NOVs, no consent orders, no enforcement actions on any project we have managed. That record is not accidental — it is the result of rigorous program design and disciplined execution.
Our licensed water treatment chemists and environmental engineers will conduct a no-obligation technical review of your facility's existing programs, identify compliance gaps, and provide a written assessment with specific recommendations.
