Site contamination and brownfield development
Contaminated properties and environmental risks present a growing concern for the construction and property development industry. Throughout construction projects, and especially during the redevelopment of brownfield sites, legacy pollutants such as petroleum hydrocarbons, solvents, and heavy metals can be unearthed or exacerbated by excavation and infrastructure work.
Additionally, active spills from machinery and fuel storage sites can introduce new contamination, threatening soil and groundwater quality. These environmental liabilities can delay or derail development projects, increase project costs, and expose developers and construction companies to regulatory scrutiny. Proactive environmental management and remediation strategies are essential to protect property, financial and environmental interests.
BioNorth’s property development and construction solution
Addressing contaminated properties requires a collaborative approach involving property owners, developers, construction companies, and remediation companies.
Unfortunately, traditional remediation solutions are costly, can have negative impacts on the environment, can permanently damage or destroy buildings and critical infrastructure, and create significant project delays or stoppages.
Fortunately, BioNorth understand property development and has worked with property owners and developers to create a cost-effective solutions for (i) site remediation and brownfield development which return contaminated properties back to a clean status in advance of planned site developments; (ii) emergency response, spill containment, and on site remediation solutions for unexpected contamination situations; and (iii) regular preventative maintenance programs for high risk areas such equipment refueling stations and storage sites.
