EPA Superfund Remediation
Baxter Springs, KS
ENCON is currently remediating a $15,000,000 mine waste Superfund Project in the
Midwest, under the supervision of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Remediation services included; consolidation and capping of mine wastes in place; removal of
mine/mill wastes, contaminated soil, selected stream sediments, subaqueous disposal of
excavated source material in mine subsidence pits, and recontouring and revegetating of
excavated areas. This project was extended with just over $10,000,000 in federal “stimulus”
package money.

Geotechnical Projects

NEW MILITARY INFRASTRUCTURE
White Sands Missile Range, NM
Scope of work consisted of coordinating with various Federal Government installation
personnel to drill 161 borings for future Heavy Brigade Combat Team Sites. Unified Soil
Classification testing was done on approximately 25% of samples collected. Additional testing
for soil corrosion, conductivity, thermal, and CBR values was performed for geotechnical
recommendations. Geotechnical Designs supported multi-million dollar base infrastructure
expansion.

HOSPITAL PARKING GARAGE
Fort Bliss, TX
Task consisted of drilling boring varying from 10 to 60 feet in depth in the main parking lot of
the William Beaumont Army Medical Center for a new parking garage. Extensive planning and
coordination was required to make sure that closing traffic and parking spaces did not interfere
with the installation’s regular operations. Core drilling was performed to characterize rock
after auger refusal occurred due to cobbles and boulders.

UNIT OPERATIONS FACILITIES DESIGN
Fort Bliss, TX
This project consisted of drilling 93 borings for four separate sites inside Fort Bliss Main
Cantonment. A separate Geotechnical Report was generated for each site. Coordination with
installation for utility lines and with each site person for access into the sensitive sites was
accomplished in a timely manner. Specialized laboratory testing and analyses were performed
to the Geotechnical Report design recommendations.


Construction Materials Testing

SCHOOL DISTRICT - SEVEN NEW FIELD HOUSES
