EEb-G I ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING SERVICES I issue was first identified. CFL was awarded a Brownfields Pilot Grant from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 2000, which was used to prepare a Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP), and to conduct a regional Phase I and II ESA of the entire Lincoln Park Complex, which revealed a more widespread impact. Expanded soil and groundwater assessment and consideration of a feasibility study and risk assessment were conducted in 2001 and 2002. EE&G served as a liaison between CFL, FDEP and community activist groups who were concerned about public health issues. Based on EE&G' research and advice, the park was closed to public access, and negotiations conducted with FDEP to develop a Risk-Based Corrective Action (RBCA) closure solution. A Conceptual Remedial Action Plan in 2003/2004, which was approved by the FDEP. Following the removal of an improperly abandoned underground storage tank, the former elementary school site was deemed acceptable for redevelopment into the One-Stop Shop. EE&G again participated in a community meeting to unveil an innovative solution, which included the use of a semi-permeable geosynthetic liner and clean fill to provide a protective cover for the park. This cost-effective solution saved the City hundreds of thousands of dollars in potential excavation/disposal costs, and minimized potential liabilities associated with the generation of dust during removal/transport. The FDEP approved this innovative Engineering Control solution, and EE&G installed the protective cap in 2005. Groundwater is currently being addressed under a Natural Attenuation Monitoring Program. In 2006, EE&G initiated an expanded Site Assessment of the original incinerator site, along with an assessment of the adjoining residential neighborhood. A Site Assessment Report was submitted to the FDEP in March 2007, which included a recommendation for limited source removal in adjoining right-of-way areas, and a long-term plan for groundwater monitoring and eventually the installation of an Engineering Control (to coincide with future redevelopment scenarios). EE&G conducted numerous Asbestos, IAQ, and Mold Assessments for City-owned properties, including City Hall, fire stations, police station, community centers, and recreational facilities. EE&G's scope of services included the following: - Interviews with building occupants to establish background history and symptoms. Conducted AHERA building material surveys. Collection of bulk/air samples for asbestos; bulk/tape/swab/air samples for mold spores. Measurements of relative humidity/temperature/dew point/carbon dioxide/carbon monoxide. Water intrusion assessments. Provided Assessment Reports, and designed abatement and remediation strategies. Abatement/remediation project coordination, oversight, monitoring, & clearance sampling. Major renovation of the 7-story City Hall building required the removal of approximately 75,000 square feet of asbestos-containing, spray-applied fireproofing and fire sprinkler and HVAC re-design. Work was done as per OSHA and AHERA requirements. EE&G was contracted to evaluate potential hazards posed by fireproofing applied in 1967, and developed specifications for removal of the material throughout the building so the fireproofing would not be impacted by the renovation activities.
