EEC recently opened a mid-Atlantic branch office in Annapolis, Maryland. The new EEC Mid-Atlantic branch is conveniently located in Annapolis, Maryland allowing quick and easy access to major markets including Washington D.C., Virginia, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New York. This new venture gives EEC the capability to tackle the most technically challenging projects anywhere in the United States and abroad.
EEC developed and implemented a stormwater program for the City of Stanton, California, to obtain compliance with the City’s national pollutant discharge elimination system (NPDES) permit and meet the objectives of the MS4 program. EEC developed the program plans, updated the City’s ordinance, conducted the initial inspections, and trained the City’s inspectors to allow them to manage their own program.
EEC conducted a comprehensive wastewater compliance audit for multiple manufacturing and research facilities in California. The compliance audit covered all areas of industrial wastewater discharge compliance for more than 30 permitted buildings to address Federal, State, and City requirements. The audit resulted in a gap analysis with specific corrective actions, an action plan, and a schedule of implementation. The audit consisted of detailed site walks, wastewater-generating process evaluations, pretreatment system inspections, employee interviews, and a records review. EEC’s unique knowledge of industrial wastewater and pretreatment program requirements allowed us to identify relevant potential compliance issues and provide practical recommendations.
EEC provided field sampling and program management for a dewatering program at two 20+ story commercial towers ( Warner Center Towers). Due to the shallow groundwater in the vicinity of the towers, both buildings were constructed with dewatering systems to reduce the static groundwater level to maintain building foundation integrity. Reporting and sampling is performed per National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System and Los Angeles watermaster requirements.
EEC’s due diligence program managers and field staff provided support for acquisitions, leases, and property purchases for a multi-national industrial laundry chain. EEC’s expertise resulted in the reduction or elimination of environmental liability and helped the client avoid purchasing properties that could become liability concerns.
EEC was retained by U.S. Bank, the 8th largest financial service holding company in the United States, to perform due diligence Phase I and Phase II investigations. U.S. Bank commissioned EEC to perform environmental site assessments (ESAs) to obtain liability protection and meet environmental due diligence requirements on properties for which potential clients are interested in securing a loan or refinance existing loans.
