Central Chemical; Hagerstown, MD
CCI was contracted to remove dust and debris from 17 structures
at the Central Chemical Superfund Site in Hagerstown, Maryland
followed by demolition of the buildings. The site was used primarily
as a pesticide formulation (DDT) facility; some of the
buildings were used for miscellaneous tasks such as automotive
repair, metal machining, chemical storage, and wood working. CCI
performed an asbestos survey and pre-characterized the wastes prior
to commencing siteoperations. CCI started by removing the
asbestos and gross removal of the contaminated dust. CCI also
configured a super-vac equipped with a High Efficiency Particulate
Filter (HEPA) exhaust and a plenum system to equip the technicians
with a dust removal system. With all the debris and dust removed,
CCI initiated site preparation to include erosion and sedimentation
controls, designation of stockpile areas, and delineation of
decontamination areas. More than 400 tons of general debris was
removed prior to demolition of the 17 buildings. CCI sampled,
analyzed, and characterized 638 cubic yards of Subtitle C hazardous
waste and 165 tons of Subtitle D non-hazardous waste prior to
containerizing the waste for transport to pre-approved disposal
facilities. An additional 175 tons of abatement-containing materials
was removed, packaged, and disposed. More than 550 tons of
structural steel was decontaminated and transported off site for
recycling at a pre-approved facility. CCI completed all tasks on
schedule, on budget, and with no OSHA incidents.
Lake Front Airport
CCI was hired to perform, temporary interior protection of surfaces to
remain, selective interior demolition and historical salvage on
designated furnishings throughout the two story historical building.
The
project included the removal and disposal of interior drywall walls and
associated studs back to the original finishes, drywall ceilings and
associated support systems, interior floor finishes and associated
adhesives other interior finishes such as wainscot, cove base, crown
moldings and door & doorjambs (where not slated for salvage) and
Mechanical Electrical & Plumbing (MEP) back to the nearest point of
connection. CCI perform removal for salvage interior furnishings such
as toilets/urinals sanitized, toilet stalls/doors, 125 each
door/doorjamb and overhead transoms. The project was completed within 6
weeks.
U.S. Customs House Selective Demolition
The renovation was due to extension damage caused by Hurricane
Katrina. CCI was contracted by Woodward Design Build, for the
interior demolition at the US Customs House, New Orleans, La. The
interior demolition included demolition and removal of ductwork, air
handlers and plumbing. It also included removal of interior partition
walls, ceilings, floor coverings, doors and frames, portions of rotten
wood flooring, wall tile, existing former light shafts, ceiling removal
on certain floors, demo and removal of HVAC concrete housekeeping pads.
Demolition of multiple brick walls was also accomplished.
Due to the historical nature and value of the US Customs House, much of
the demolition had to be done by hand. Trash Chutes were constructed on
the outside of the building and ramps were built on the inside for
debris to be dropped from the 2nd, 3rd and 4th floors. In order to
preserve the pavers / sidewalks, CCI utilized plywood as a covering for
protection of the pavers / sidewalks.
CCI provided
temporary barricades and other protection to ensure a safe working
area, not only for our employees, but for the many other contractors
working in the area. CCI also provided dust control measures during the
demolition phase, provided disposal of all of the debris removed.
Demolition and Emergency Response; Kinston, NC
CCI personnel responded in connection to a plant
explosion in North Carolina. CCI was called to respond in two different
capacities. The first was in an emergency response capacity and the
second was to perform demolition of the damaged structure. CCI provided
complete demolition and disposal of approximately 40,000 square feet of
the warehouse portion of the plant. Demolition was performed utilizing
hydraulic shears and grapples on hydraulic excavators. Stored materials
from the damaged warehouse, as well as the structure itself, were
segregated and staged using heavy equipment. CCI performed demolition of
approximately 1,132 tons of construction debris, steel, and concrete.
Propane Decontamination and Demolition; Chesapeake, VA
The 38-acre former
Smith Douglas bulk fertilizer facility located on the Elizabeth
River in Chesapeake, Virginia shipped and received various agricultural
and
commercial fertilizers by barge, rail, and truck traffic. On-site
chemicals included
industrial fertilizers, PCBs, and asbestos. The facility operated as a
blending,
manufacturing, and bagging operation. The project goal was to restore
the property for future development by the Peak Shaving LNG/Propane
distribution facility. CCI’s scope of work consisted of utility
abandonment, asbestos abatement, building demolition, barge dock
demolition, rail service demolition, waste sampling and packaging, mass
excavation, soil segregation and load-out, erosion control feature
installation including sediment basins and diversion dikes, UST removal
and closure, and backfilling/compaction/finish grading operations
