Specialty Consulting, Inc. (SPC) was commissioned by the Department of Capital Planning & Policy of Cook County (DCPP) to conduct a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) for Provident Hospital of Cook County. The assessment aimed to identify potential contaminants of concern (COCs) in soil and groundwater and anticipate any redevelopment-related issues. SPC's ongoing partnership with Cook County Health underscores its commitment to community health and safety.
The Phase II ESA involved 24 Geoprobe® soil borings and the installation of 4 temporary well points for sample collection. 45 soil and 4 groundwater samples were collected for lab analysis of relevant COCs. Soil sampling results were compared to Tier 1 Soil Remediation Objectives (SROs).
SPC delivered a comprehensive 421-page report with recommendations to Cook County Health, providing valuable insights to support informed decision-making and future redevelopment efforts at Provident Hospital. This project underscores SPC's commitment to thorough environmental assessment and compliance, ensuring the safety and integrity of the site and its surroundings.
