The overall project is referred to as “Superfund Site Unimatic OU2” and is being prime contracted by Conti Federal under the joint oversight and management of the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). The project consists of remedial excavation activities for Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) contaminated stream bed sediments at several off-site wooded wetland locations, downstream from the original Unimatic Manufacturing Site in Fairfield, NJ.
Partner has teamed with Conti Federal to provide environmental services, including Perimeter Air Monitoring during all stages of excavation to protect on-site and off-site residential receptors. Partner is also providing Soil, Sediment, Surface Water, and Groundwater Sampling and Analytical Services, Data Quality Assurance Reporting, Wetland Permitting Assistance, Monitoring Well Installation, and long-term Groundwater Monitoring and Reporting.
Partner is preparing high quality work products and deliverables that receive multiple levels of review from third party contractors, outside environmental consultants and the USEPA and USACE. Multiple additional scope tasks have been prepared by Partner to support additional sampling and remediation objectives. The project is also dependent upon weather conditions and has been delayed, driving the initial start timeline into the winter months which may present additional unforeseen challenges to a timely completion.
Partner has supported Conti Federal in reprioritizing and performing scheduled tasks to expedite certain scope activities to advance the overall project completion. The project is still in early stages of completion, but anticipated to be completed on or ahead of schedule once other contractors can mobilize. Partner continues to provide frequent interface and collaboration with Conti Federal and third-party providers to ensure cost effective and technically sound solutions are implemented throughout the project.
