Specialty Consulting, Inc. (SPC) extended its expertise to the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA), focusing on three senior building sites: the Lorraine Hansberry, Margaret Day Blake, and Mahalia Jackson buildings. SPC's consultation encompassed a range of vital tasks, including comprehensive environmental investigations, meticulous oversight, and detailed reporting. Groundwater sampling for monitoring wells was conducted to ensure ongoing environmental monitoring and assessment.

Additionally, SPC thoroughly reviewed documents and performed supplementary testing to address comments from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA), ensuring compliance and regulatory adherence. This involved developing responsive strategies to finalize CSIR/ROR/RAP reports.

Continuing their dedicated involvement, SPC provided essential support in site remediation and oversite of engineered barrier installation, facilitating the removal of contaminated soil and conducting VOC air monitoring. These efforts culminated in the successful submission and acceptance of a No Further Remediation (NFR) letter, marking a significant milestone in the project's progression.
