Western Pennsylvania

A large landslide occurred at a site under development by a third party in Western Pennsylvania, impacting an adjacent state highway and rail line. After emergency actions were implemented to reopen the highway and rail line, stabilization of the site was to occur under consent order between the state and the third party. With the goal of stabilizing the site as quickly and efficiently as possible, the prospective purchaser assumed the responsibility of responding to the consent order and retained Geosyntec to develop and evaluate options for stabilizing the site.
