CONSTRUCTION & REMEDIATION

FMC Corporation
Soil Remediation Services

Project Background
Engineering/Remediation Resources Group, Inc. (ERRG) has completed several remediation and restoration projects for FMC Corporation since 1997. Recently, ERRG completed soil remediation services at Unit 91, Unit 98, Building 11, and portions of Central Test Track Area (CTTA) located at FMC's facility in San Jose, California. FMC has been completing various site remediation projects prior to transferring title of the property to new owners. As such, FMC completed remediation of approximately 50,000 cubic yards of contaminated soil from the CTTA in San Jose.

ERRG was responsible for excavation of approximately 3,000 cubic yards of soil to pre-designated depths at Unit 91, Unit 98, Building 11, and portions of the CTTA. The excavation depth ranged from 1 foot to 16 feet below ground surface (bgs). Portions of the soil excavation activities were completed below the water table and required pumping and management of contaminated groundwater.

ERRG worked closely with FMC's project consultant throughout the project including coordination on the transportation and disposal of excavated soil to permitted disposal facilities.

Prior to excavation efforts, ERRG cleared surface area obstructions, obtained underground utility clearance including temporary shutdown/relocation of utility lines (i.e. power line and water line). During the project, ERRG also assisted with soil confirmation and water sample collection. Upon completion of excavation, the site was restored including import, placement and compaction of backfill, site grading, and resurfacing with asphalt.
