Selected Project Experience: Phase One - Municipal Services Center – Site Preparation, Jersey City, NJ: This project for the Jersey City Dept. of Public Works involved Clearing, Site Preparation, Site Remediation, Asbestos Abatement and the Selective Demolition and Salvage of an existing 158,600 SF building that is to be re-purposed for use as a new Municipal Services Center for Jersey City. Jersey City has extensive areas in the city where chromium contamination is a continuing problem from legacy industries. The Site Remediation portion of this project involved the excavation, transportation, stabilization and off-site disposal of 1,128 Tons of Hexavalent Chrome (Hex Chrome). Prior to excavating the Hex Chrome Areas of Concern, the AOC’s were located via coordinates provided on the plans and based on sampling and testing performed by the owner’s consultant. Samples were extracted from each AOC and taken to a licensed analytical lab for testing to characterize the material for landfill acceptance. Then, KCC worked with Clean Earth to develop the appropriate means of treating and disposing of the Hex Chrome contaminated soil. As part of this project KCC developed a Hazardous Material Handling Plan, and worked with Emilcott (Environmental, Health and Safety Experts) from Morristown, NJ to develop a Site Specific HASP, which was reviewed by their Certified Industrial Hygienist prior to implementation. Emilcott also provided KCC with an on-site Site Safety Officer who provided health and safety oversight and conducted work zone monitoring for total dust during intrusive activities in the Hex Chrome contaminated areas. Emilcott also provided on-site air monitoring support during the Asbestos Abatement work which was subcontracted to a specialty firm. Rehabilitation of Lake Solitude Dam, High Bridge, NJ: Clearing & grubbing, partial demolition of the existing structure, soil remediation, modifications of existing Penstock, construction of new concrete headwall & footing at the inlet pipe, slip lining exiting 78" diameter Penstock with new 48" diameter HDPE pipe.

Rehab of existing stone masonry walls of existing spillway and retaining walls. Concrete resurfacing, construction of post-tensioned concrete toe block, sheet piling, construction of Roller Compacted Concrete, raising the earthen embankment of the dam as well as filling and regrading the upstream slope of shoreline.

  • NJ TRANSIT's Site Screening Analysis for NJ TRANSITGRID
    Appendix A: NJ TRANSIT’s Site Screening Analysis for NJ TRANSITGRID APPENDIX A: NJ TRANSIT’S SITE SCREENING ANALYSIS FOR NJ TRANSITGRID A.1 INTRODUCTION The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and New Jersey Transit Corporation (NJ TRANSIT) will prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) and FTA’s regulations for implementing NEPA for the proposed NJ TRANSITGRID TRACTION POWER SYSTEM (the proposed Project). The proposed Project is a first of a kind microgrid designed to provide highly reliable power to support a core segment of NJ TRANSIT’s critical transportation services and infrastructure needs. As defined by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), a microgrid is a localized grouping of electricity sources and loads that normally operate connected to and synchronous with the traditional centralized grid, but can disconnect and function autonomously as physical and/or economic conditions dictate. The proposed Project will include an approximate 104-megawatt (MW)1 natural gas fired electric power generating plant (Main Facility) and associated infrastructure to provide traction power (i.e., the electricity needed to electrify railroad tracks) to enable trains to operate during widespread power failures on a portion of NJ TRANSIT and Amtrak systems, including some sections of the Amtrak Northeast Corridor (NEC) and NJ TRANSIT Morris & Essex Line, and the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail System. The proposed Project will also be designed to support non-traction loads including the signal system on a portion of the NJ TRANSIT Main Line (so that diesel trains can operate during power outages), signal systems at NJ TRANSIT Hudson-Bergen Light Rail Stations and at the NJ TRANSIT Hoboken Terminal, and other NJ TRANSIT signal power, tunnel ventilation, pumping, and lighting loads.

  • Discussion Points
    Department of Transportation and Motor Vehicle Commission FY 2017-2018 Discussion Points Department Of Transportation/ New Jersey Turnpike Authority 1a. The FY 2016 Transportation Trust Fund Authority (TTFA) Financial Plan projected an outlay of $1.127 billion for transportation project costs, and a closing cash balance at the end of FY 2016 of $57.7 million. The Governor issued Executive Order No. 210 on June, 30 2016 which directed the immediate and orderly shutdown all non-emergency TTF projects, except for those federally funded, on the premise that the TTFA would exhaust all of its available funds in August 2016. • Question: What was the actual cash balance of the TTFA on the date Executive Order No. 210 was issued? What amount of spending on transportation costs was likely to have occurred during July 2016 had Executive Order No. 210 not been issued? What amount did the TTFA expend for transportation project costs in FY 2016? If this amount fell short of the original projection, please explain the reasons for that shortfall. Answer: As of June 30, 2016, the cash balance in the TTFA totaled $201 million. Prior to the shutdown, the TTFA’s monthly average cash expenses were approximately $90 million. In FY2016, the Authority’s gross transportation costs totaled $1,086.5 million, a figure which accounts for NJ Transit’s repayment of a TTF cash loan totaling $241.5 million. 1b. The TTFA FY 2016 Financial Plan also noted a FY 2015 closing net balance or “tail” of $1.94 billion, which represents authorized project costs that have not yet been realized as a cash expense.
