Keys to Success
- Understand the Comprehensive Project Goals
(Awareness)
- “Front-Ended” Environmental Due-Diligence
Approach (Strategy)
- Conduct the Comprehensive Assessment (Execution)
- Innovate Specific to the Project Needs (Innovation)

MWCC 2017
Representative Projects to Discuss
- Kansas City, Missouri – Power & Light Entertainment
District
- Oklahoma City, OK – Central Park Initiative (MAPS3
Upper Park) The projects had significantly different timelines, but the environmental objectives were the same.

MWCC 2017
Awareness
- Owner Requirements, Scheduling, Sequencing & Key
Project Milestones
- How does environmental work dovetail with other
trades and General Contractor requirements?
- Expected Environmental Conditions (prior to
assessment)
- Identify Environmental “drivers” and Potential Project
Constraints Integration in the Project Delivery Team
SLIDE 6
MWCC 2017
Strategy
- Compress the due-diligence process
(Phase I ESA, Phase II ESA, building surveys)
- Act immediately on the “environmental
drivers” & critical conditions
- Design with the full project team in
mind – what time & cost efficiencies can be gained with collaboration?
- Coordinate early with environmental
regulators as they are important partners in the process
Eliminate Potential Problems Before they Develop!

Execution
- Quickly obtain the “Priority Data”
- Structures: Supporting Renovation &
Demolition
- Near-surface Soil: Facilitate Land-Clearing
& Grading Activities
- Subsurface Soil: New Construction &
Excavation Areas
- Waste Profiling: Disposal Authorizations for
Soil & Construction Debris
- Fluid Profiling: Disposal Authorizations for
Groundwater & Surface Water
- Hazard Communication: Include
environmental information in bid specifications for general contractor.
Get it Before You Need It!

Innovation
- Environmental Technicians included in Construction
Teams
- Assess “on the fly” during the Construction Phase
- Reuse of Materials – Natural and man-made Materials
Advance the Objectives of the Developer “Time & Money”

Benefits of this Approach?
“The Fully-Integrated Environmental Partner”
- Provides a Solid Technical Foundation for the Project
- Maintain or Accelerate the Overall Development
Schedule
- Avoid Construction-Phase Delays & Change Orders
- Provides Methods to Save Your Client Money!
