Electronic Components Manufacturer Remediation

[vc_row content_aligment="center"][vc_column][vc_column_text] Soil and groundwater at this industrial facility became contaminated through inadvertent release of PCE to a storm sewer. Draper Aden provided a novel, in situ remediation approach, developed to address the dissolved PCE that has already reached the confined aquifer and low levels that could enter the aquifer in the future. We performed environmental remediation and monitoring to assist the manufacturing site. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]...

City of Mebane Real Estate Development

[vc_row content_aligment="center"][vc_column][vc_column_text] For over 120 years, this landmark furniture manufacturing company operated in the heart of Mebane, NC. After closing operations, the historic site became prime real estate for mixed use development and downtown rejuvenation. Initially, Draper Aden performed a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment on the property to help the developer assess his risk before proceeding. Additionally, under an Administrative Agreement (AA) with NCDENR Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch, a Remedial Action Plan (RAP) had been submitted to excavate contaminated soil and sediment. Draper Aden helped the owner negotiate a new AA and managed the expedited cleanup to meet a rigid deadline for obtaining a Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) loan critical for moving the project forward. After excavation of approximately 1,130 tons of contaminated soil, a Remedial Action Completion report was certified and submitted to the REC Program who issued a No Further Action (NFA) letter within 24 hours...

Rehrig International Manufacturing Facility

[vc_row content_aligment="center"][vc_column][vc_column_text] The Rehrig International (RI) project represents an excellent example of a technically complex remediation project involving an equally complicated array of public agencies. RI operated a nickel-chromium metal plating and plastic extrusion facility in Chesterfield County, between 2001 and 2008. In 2008, the facility was ordered to be shut down. The owner of the property subsequently entered into a Consent Agreement with EPA to remove hazardous wastes and other materials from the property. On behalf of the Owner, Draper Aden directed the EPA removal action and provided a broad spectrum of services to the facility. These services included assisting in negotiating a Removal Action Consent Agreement with EPA, serving as liaison between the owner and various local agencies, preparing inventories and assessments of hazardous wastes, managing the cleanup of the property, conducting post-closure assessment, assessing risk to human health as attributed to residual nickel in soils and groundwater beneath building,...

San-J International Inc.

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Draper Aden performed a feasibility study, site plan evaluation, and programming assistance for the proposed expansion at the San-J facility in Henrico County. When the project was approved in 2015, Draper Aden continued to work on the 5.7 acre expansion and new building. The 43,000 SF expansion allows San-J to double its soy sauce production, while the new 15,000 SF building provides an intake space for raw materials. The entire project included construction of the expansion and new building, parking lots, new roads, utilities, and all related site infrastructure.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]...
