Brownfields Redevelopment – Precious Metals Recovery Facility
The Challenge:
Evaluate soil and groundwater conditions underlying a property that is considered a high risk of soil impact by metals based on past land use. Groundwater exists in fractured bedrock.
Our Solution:
EnviroSouth rapidly completed assessment activities to meet developer deadlines. The detection of an elevated metals concentration in one groundwater sample required EnviroSouth to elicit a quick response from State environmental regulators who agreed with our technical evidence that the metals were likely attributable to naturally occurring conditions.
What's Unique:
Our relationship of trust and mutual respect with State environmental regulators facilitated a timely outcome that allowed the property purchase to be completed on schedule.
