POINT OF CONTACT NAME Mr. Horacio Danovich, PE c. POINT OF CONTACT TELEPHONE NUMBER (954) 786-7834 24. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT AND RELEVANCE TO THIS CONTRACT (Include scope, size, and cost.) E Sciences was awarded a 2nd term contract with the Pompano Beach CRA to provide environmental engineering services. We also have a contract with the City of Pompano Beach to provide similar services, but this CRA contract is specific to assessing and remediating contamination to support redeveloping a blighted and disenfranchised community. All of the services provided under this contract are on properties within the designated Pompano Beach Northwest Brownfield Area. Our approach to assisting this client has been to utilize creative assessment tools to identify the real potential concerns and to quickly assess how they can be addressed in a practical manner during design and construction. This approach is allowing the redevelopment projects to proceed without the obstacle of assessment and remediation. On numerous occasions, we have met in person with the client (at no cost) to understand the CRA’s mission and overall goals and plans to ensure that our role on the team is integrated, practical and helpful. To date, E Sciences has provided tasks for several projects including the following: Community Gardens Parcels: E Sciences evaluated the suitability of three vacant, CRA-owned parcels for use as community gardens for a local school. The community gardens will be used to teach children about agriculture and healthy food choices. Vegetables grown on these lots will be used to provide fresh vegetables for families and children in the community. Incremental sampling methodology was used for soil assessment at this site resulting in several thousands of dollars in savings for the CRA. Broward Community & Family Health Center: E Sciences prepared Environmental Information and Documentation to satisfy Health Resources and Services Administration grant application requirements. The project was conducted to support the potential redevelopment of CRA parcels with a much-needed community health care facility. The documentation was required for the grant applicant to comply with NEPA. Corner of Atlantic Avenue/West Dixie Highway: This is an assemblage of numerous parcels owned by the CRA and adjacent properties owned by others. E Sciences conducted a Phase I and Phase II ESAs on the multiple parcels. The Phase I ESA revealed Recognized Environmental Conditions (RECs) related to historical land uses such the following: dry cleaner, gasoline station, blueprint and photostat business, auto sales and service center with historic underground storage tanks and a lumber yard. The site was determined to be contaminated from the historic dry cleaner. E Sciences prepared a site development evaluation for this property providing guidance to the CRA on how the presence of contamination could impact site redevelopment and set forth strategies for minimizing the impact of contamination on the construction; designing the site to minimize the impact of the construction and site development; and to reduce potential risks.
