Project Highlight: In Situ Stabilization in Tight Urban Conditions

In Situ Stabilizaton

Remediating urban sites isn’t just about contaminants—it’s about access, coordination, and timing. At the Gowanus Nevins redevelopment site in Brooklyn, the client faced a tough challenge: stabilize coal tar-related MGP contamination between two 24-story buildings with limited access, dense infrastructure, and over 10 contractors working onsite.

  • With tight permitting windows, buried obstructions, and no room for error, the risks were high: delays, disruptions, and potential non-compliance with NYSDEC standards could derail the entire project.
  • Standard approaches wouldn’t cut it—Cascade delivered a purpose-built ISS solution using pre-treatment probing, phased execution, and specialized mixing equipment to navigate these constraints.
