Project Specifics
A former food manufacturing facility sat idle for nearly a decade prior to being redeveloped as a four-story, 2.6-million-square-foot warehouse distribution center. Soil and groundwater beneath the site were impacted with chlorinated solvents, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and metals from former site operations.
Geosyntec Scope of Services
The new owners retained Geosyntec for environmental due diligence and Brownfields redevelopment support to facilitate the safe and effective revitalization of this former blighted property.
Notable Accomplishments
Geosyntec maintained regular correspondence with the state regulators for the duration of the redevelopment process, specifically in reference to VIMS tasks. This was of particular importance given the significant scheduling constraints for the building construction. Our SSV design approach and performance verification strategy, both of which are unfamiliar to the North Carolina regulators, were approved on schedule. This was the first SSV VIMS design approved in North Carolina.
