Re: Notice of Intent for Remediation General Permit, 263 Monsignor O CDW CONSULTANTS, INC. CIVIL & ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERS April 30, 2020 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 5 Post Office Square, Suite 100 Mail Code OEP06-4 Boston, MA 02109-3912 ATTN: Remediation General Permit NOI Processing Re: Notice of Intent for Remediation General Permit 263 Monsignor O’Brien Highway, Cambridge, MA 1 McGrath Highway, Somerville, MA CDW Project # 1476.10 To Whom It May Concern: CDW Consultants, Inc. (CDW) is submitting this Notice of Intent (NOI) on behalf of Somerbridge Hotel, LLC for a Remediation General Permit (RGP) under EPA’s National Pollutants Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program. The RGP is required to discharge groundwater encountered during construction activities for development of a new hotel at the above-referenced site. Construction activities will take place on a property which consists of two parcels of land (the “Site”), one in Cambridge, MA and one in Somerville, MA, totaling approximately 0.75 acres (32,670 square feet). The parcel at 263 Monsignor O’Brien Highway is shown on the City of Cambridge Assessor’s Maps as Parcel 7-35 and is also known as 241 and 245 Monsignor O’Brien Highway. The second parcel is known as Parcel 115-B-8 on the City of Somerville Assessor’s Maps, and is located at 1 McGrath Highway in Somerville, MA. The property is listed as a disposal site under the Massachusetts Contingency Plan and has been listed as one since December 1993 and again in February 1995 with the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) under Release Tracking Number (RTN) 3-10317 and 3- 10852, respectively. Known contaminants in groundwater at the Site include non-chlorinated volatile organic compounds (VOCs), petroleum hydrocarbons, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), poly-chlorinated biphenyl’s (PCB’s), and heavy metals. The VOCs, petroleum, and PCB’s were likely attributed to the historical use of reconditioning used metal drums which included cleaning, rinsing, and repainting the barrels. In addition, a portion of the site served as a gasoline station starting in 1967 until approximately 1988. The dewatering is occurring in conjunction with a Release Abatement Measure (RAM) and EPA TSCA Risk Based Cleanup Plan to manage contaminated soils during excavations for the building foundations and utilities. 6 Huron Drive, Natick, MA 01706 508-875-265 www.cdwconsultants.com To obtain more updated groundwater quality, CDW collected groundwater samples for VOCs, total metals, total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), total phenols, chloride, total cyanide, total suspended solids (TSS), total residual chlorine (TRC), trivalent chromium, hexavalent chromium, 1,4-dioxane, EDB, and semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) (Table 1). Our proposed groundwater treatment system for this project consists of a frac tank and bag filters to remove suspended solids along with dual carbon treatment units, and ion resin exchange filter and a cartridge filter before entering a catch basin in Monsignor O’Brien Highway and ultimately discharging to the Charles River. Dewatering will be intermittent and will not be encountered at all locations during construction. CDW reviewed online databases including the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife (NHESP), Massachusetts Geographical Information Systems (MassGIS), Cambridge GIS Viewer, and Massachusetts Cultural Resource Information Viewer (MACRIS). Based on these findings, the Site and the location of proposed discharge, do not appear to be located within an Area of Critical Environmental Concern (Appendix A). Historical Site information from MACRIS showed that there is a historical location listed at the Site, a Boston and Lowell Railroad Retaining Wall from the 19th century. At this time, CDW’s opinion is that dewatering of the Site will not affect the retaining wall (Appendix C).

First, as a strong advocate for the project I want to note that I am appreciative that MassDOT has heard the concerns of the community and agreed to relocate the Maintenance Facility to Option L and has worked to respond to requirements set forth in the certificate that was previously issued. I look forward to continue working with Mass DOT, the MBTA, and fellow members of the Design Working group to ensure that the best decisions are made to move the project forward successfully and on time. There are still a number of important issues that need to be addressed to fully comply with the Certificate and move the project forward successfully, but none that should result in delaying the project any further. My comments will address the following: Ensuring maximum accessibility to stations Integrating design and construction of the Community Path with the GLX Refinement of Option L Maintenance facility Design (incorporating Option L alternative configuration Compliance with public participation requirements set forth in the Certificate and in 301 CMR 11.01 (1) (a). o Mitigation for businesses and residents during construction and when service is operating o Public Involvement from Design through construction Designing GLX to enable future expansion to Porter Square, as well as adding an interim station between Lechmere and Washington St.

Before making more specific comments, I especially want to commend the efforts of those MassDOT personnel and consultants who are working on and championing this project despite a chronic and severe shortage of state transportation resources, both financial and staff. Given our ongoing environmental challenges and the need to grow out of a severe regional and global recession, all of us must take responsibility for accomplishing this project in a manner that is effective, efficient and expeditious. The GLX is the state’s and the Boston Metropolitan Planning Organization’s largest SIP transit commitment. Every effort should be made to restore its lapsed schedule so that completion can be accomplished by the legal December 31, 2014 deadline. With transportation accounting for 70% of US petroleum use (see EIA chart next page) and a dominant share of our balance of payments indebtedness, it is necessary to shift our urban transportation mode shares as quickly as possible to clean transit, that can be powered without petroleum, and simultaneously to expanded walk and bike modes that are eminently compatible with transit.

  • The Foundry Works Operator RFP Submission
    FOUNDRY OPERATOR RFP RESPONSE PREPARED FOR Thomas Evans Cambridge Redevelopment Authority PREPARED BY The Foundry Works Team Molly Akin Rex Baker Gillian Grogan Magali Maïza Andrew Meyer In Partnership with Fab Foundation March 6, 2018 255 Main Street, 8th floor Thomas Evans, Executive Director Cambridge, MA 02142 Cambridge Redevelopment Authority Dear Mr. Evans, The Foundry Works Team is pleased to submit this Letter of Interest and the accompanying proposal to The Foundry Building Operator Request for Proposals. The Cambridge Redevelopment Authority has defined an ambitious mission for the Foundry: to serve as a nexus for entrepreneurship, technology, workforce education and the arts. Our team possesses the skills and flexibility required to carry out this mission with financial sustainability. The vision defined for the Foundry requires a creative economic and programing approach, as we present here, in order to successfully curate tenants, uses, and programs that meet community needs within an inclusive and energizing space. Industry Lab LLC, Molly Akin and Magali Maïza, in partnership with the Fab Foundation, have combined their respective expertises to propose an operating model adapted to the unique and comprehensive mission of the Foundry. The Fab Foundation brings extensive experience in funding, equipping and operating innovative community fabrication facilities and curricula, with the goal of democratizing access to the tools of technical invention. We acknowledge that we’re a newly constituted team, but in many ways, we’ve been preparing for this project our whole lives. We believe in it. To each of us, the Foundry project represents an opportunity to create something beautiful and daring: a space where all Cambridge residents feel comfortable arriving, learning, playing, and working.
