Phase I Commercial Property ESA

EWI was contracted to conduct a Phase I ESA at a former retail building constructed in the early 1900s in a downtown area. The scope of the ESA involved assessment of the seven-story building and two adjacent parking lot areas.

Environmental issues identified included an abandoned 1,000 - gallon fuel oil underground storage tank (UST) in one of the parking areas, electrical transformers with no PCB testing records, and asbestos containing materials (ACM) throughout the building.

An asbestos inspection was conducted by EWI to identify areas of ACM, and a cost estimate for ACM abatement, UST removal, and PCB sampling was developed.

PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

Property was a 7-story former retail building constructed in early 1900s

Environmental issues included a UST, possible PCB transformers, and asbestos

EWI developed a cost estimate for asbestos abatement, UST removal, and PCB testing

   
Phase I Industrial Park ESA

EWI has conducted Phase I ESAs at the Partnership Industrial Center for a number of clients, including City Utilities. The Partnership Industrial Center is a newly developed industrial park located in Springfield, Missouri.

The ESAs were generally conducted on undeveloped property as part of the transactional process for initial development. EWI was able to provide completed reports to clients within two weeks of authorization.

PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

Phase I ESAs conducted at a new industrial park for numerous clients including local utility provider

EWI provided completed reports within two weeks of authorization

   

Phase II Industrial Facility ESA

This facility is a truck part manufacturer with numerous contaminant concerns including solvents, PCBs, metals, and petroleum compounds in the soil and groundwater.

EWI is conducting ongoing investigations and remediation in three separate process areas at the facility. Investigative activities have included the placement of approximately 30 soil borings with the conversion of selected borings to wells. Remediation has involved excavation and removal of impacted soils, as well as free product recovery.

The Phase II investigations are being conducted under multiple state regulatory programs, including the LUST program and the Voluntary Cleanup Program (VCP). EWI provides regulatory guidance to facility personnel for coordination of activities under the LUST program and VCP.

PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

Site has several contaminants in three areas of concern

Remedial actions include removal of impacted soil and free product recovery

EWI coordinates site activities under multiple regulatory programs

   
Phase II Industrial Facility ESA

EWI was contracted by the potential buyer to conduct a transactional Phase II ESA at a major electronics manufacturing facility. The ESA involved placement of 47 soil borings to various depths at identified areas of concern at the facility.

Soil and groundwater samples were collected and analyzed, and a report was prepared describing findings and identifying potential liabilities associated with the site. The report included cost estimates associated with the potential site liabilities.

EWI completed the field investigation and report development within a three-week period to meet the client’s existing schedule, thereby allowing the property transaction to be completed.

PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

Phase II ESA identified potential environmental liabilities

Field investigation, sample analysis, and report completed within three weeks
