METRO NEXUS ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ASSESSMENT
To satisfy the requirements of a lending institution and the NJDEP, Metro Nexus retained Langan to perform due diligence, compliance filing and site closure activities at a 75-year old, 1,150,000 square foot, multi-tenanted industrial/commercial complex. Due diligence activities entailed historic file review to document prior property use, and governmental agency records and databases, as well as, site reconnaissance and interviews with key facility personnel and government officials. These activities identified environmental conditions associated with property tenants and industrial infrastructure, such as USTs, transformers, asbestos, lead-based paint and groundwater impacts. Upon Metro Nexus’s purchase of the property, a Phase II ESA was done in accord with ISRA Site Investigation requirements. A joint investigation of tenant related ISRA applicable areas of the property, and non-ISRA applicable areas of the complex were performed under an executed Memorandum of Agreement prepared by Langan. Langan successfully guided over 30 ISRA applicable tenants through the ISRA process. Langan also defined impacted soil and groundwater areas of the property to support a Deed Notice and Groundwater Classification Exception Area remedy, and successfully closed multiple USTs associated with former industrial use.
