AES has current experience performing Brownfields Assessments in EPA Regions 1, 3, 4, and 6. This experience uniquely equips AES to help meet redevelopment goals of municipalities, regional planning/development entities, and the EPA. AES has pre-approved Region 1, 3, and 4 generic Quality Assurance Project Plans (QAPP) which will greatly reduce the cost and effort necessary to complete individual projects.

From our experience in the performance of brownfield assessment and technical support services, we understand brownfields assessments need to be designed to assist states, municipalities, and other stakeholders with the clean up, and sustainable redevelopment of properties that are underutilized due to perceived or actual environmental contamination. AES’s technical support in this process can go well beyond the scope of an environmental site assessment and often includes the need to clearly and concisely convey property information, provide an understanding of regulations, and provide a means to prepare a site for developer readiness. Brownfields assessments are designed to provide a head start towards site redevelopment.

As a current Prime Contractor for multiple, concurrent EPA Brownfields contracts, AES is uniquely qualified to perform brownfield assessments. AES has in-depth knowledge of EPA and state regulatory requirements and the technical expertise to administer and execute the TBA program. Our pre-approved generic QAPPs, will enable our clients to focus funds on public involvement and maximizing the depth and quality of the assessments. AES has completed numerous brownfield projects for EPA and has collectively conducted hundreds of assessments for federal, state, municipal, and commercial clients. Our in house technical expertise includes registered professional engineers, geologists, and licensed site professionals. AES has the proven ability to manage and execute multiple, concurrent brownfield projects, as evidenced by successful execution of five Brownfield contracts from EPA over the last five years.
