BANC3 performed environmental remediation including removal and replacement
of underground storage tanks for several gas stations owned by HAPCO Corporation
for their facility upgrades. Each site was evaluated to determine if releases
from the USTs had impacted the environment. Extensive remedial investigations
and remediation were conducted at the sites, and significant contamination
was identified at most. Free product recovery systems, both passive absorption
and active pumping, have been installed.
In-situ remediation of soil and groundwater, including passive remediation using oxygen release compounds injected into the subsurface, was utilized. Evaluations of natural attenuation via the ASTM RBCA process were used to determine the cost-effective resolution for each site. The project demonstrates our ability to execute complex project and how we maintain ourselves current with the state-of-the-art for remediation. BANC3 performed the following tasks:
-
surveyed the sites and assessed unique site needs,
-
developed design documents for removal and replacement of USTs,
-
applied for and acquired necessary approvals for all disciplines,
-
scheduled the project, coordinated resources, performed construction and environmental inspection and assessments,
-
designed and construction of spill containment systems to meet SPCC requirements
-
responded quickly at one of the sites in removing the contaminated soil
-
identified, delineated, designed remedial systems, and remediated contamination, obtained NJDEP case closure, and
-
completed all required NJDEP reports
Though each site was unique, the same office under a single project executive managed upgrade operations. The project as a whole demonstrates BANC3’s ability to work for a single responsible entity while addressing the unique needs of the various sites. This experience is therefore similar to the level of effort required for this proposal.
One of the projects involved the excavation and removal of contaminated soil and demolition of existing building at the Mobil Gas Station in Cranbury, NJ. This project was performed utilizing the services of a subcontracted excavator. The building foundations removed were constructed of nearly two foot thick concrete walls and extended to beyond the building footprint. This condition was unknown during the pre-construction phase and could only be addressed with heavier equipment and additional time. We completed the project on time after an extension had been granted based upon the unanticipated conditions. There were no safety violations or problems associated with our work.
