SOU ill 13END REDEVELOPMENT COMMISSION — IVY TOWER PACILTTY RENOVATION PROJECT Proposal for Environmental Services Indiana, and Michigan. Many of the properties were contaminated by historic industrial and/or commercial operations and contained vacated dilapidated buildings. • Electromotive Plant (McCook, Illinois)- Weaver Boos personnel conducted a pre- demolition survey at this industrial complex that manufactured diesel locomotives for the railroad industry. Services provided included; exterior surveys of the various buildings of the industrial complex, boundary surveys and easements. An interior survey of the building was performed to help demolition crews map the interior load bearing walls and quantify the materials for removal. The interior survey also included mapping of all drainage structures and collection pits within the floor slab. At the completion of the demolition activities, legal descriptions for environmentally deed restricted areas, as well as vacation plats for easements no longer necessary were prepared. The final product was a series of subdivision plats to divide portions of the property into other commercial real estate and provided surveying support and engineering services for the development of each parcel. • Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company Global Technological Innovation Center (Chicago, Illinois) - Weaver Boos has assisted Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company (Wrigley) in the due diligence assessment and remediation planning and implementation for this abandoned turn of the century industrial facility. The site has been enrolled in the Illinois Site Remediation Program for purposes of obtaining a No Further Remediation Letter. In evaluating environmental response options, a creative remedial strategy was developed allowing for creation of a Soil Management Zone pursuant to Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IE,PA) regulations. This remedial strategy resulted in considerable project savings improving the overall financial viability of the redevelopment. The plan was approved on a fast track basis through effective communications with IEPA personnel and submittal of comprehensive SRP documents.
