Honeywell Taps CH2M for Superfund Cleanup
David Wagman | May 23, 2017Honeywell selected CH2M for remedial construction management at the Quanta Resources Corp. Superfund site. The site, located in Edgewater, New Jersey, is one of the largest in-situ stabilization remediation projects of its kind.
Edgewater's industrial history dates from the 1880s and left behind contaminated soil, river sediments, and groundwater. Partnering on the remediation effort since 2005, Colorado-based CH2M and Honeywell have already completed environmental investigations and remedial design for the 24-acre Superfund site along the Hudson River.
Honeywell received U.S. Environmental Protection Agency approval for its Final Remedial Design and Remedial Work Plan in 2016. Remedial cleanup using soil solidification is now underway at the site. When complete, the remediation action is expected to poise the site for redevelopment.
As part of the two-year remediation effort, the CH2M-led team will treat 150,000 cubic yards of soil. Soil solidification is an on-site treatment method that is intended to protect the community and environment, minimizes disruption, and allow for site redevelopment in a shorter timeframe.
Currently, CH2M provides site characterization, remediation and closure services at Honeywell legacy sites across 14 states and in Canada.
