Former Smelter Mixed-Use Redevelopment

ENTACT completed remedial action activities that included management and consolidation of all on-site debris; decontamination and demolition of remaining smelter buildings; asbestos abatement; UST removal; regrading of over 1.3 million cubic yards of slag and soil – slag piles as large as 8.5 acres and up to 50 feet tall – representing five separate slag categories distinguished by color and gradation for utilization in distinct sections of the development; removal of impacted soil and sediment; and construction of a 185-acre soil cover system over the entire site. The site has successfully undergone redevelopment, with construction of residential units including condominiums, apartments and townhomes; a grocery store; Gold and Silver LEED-certified office space; a light rail station; a community park; and 20 acres of open space with a wetland mitigation area.
