Metropolitan Reclamation District of Greater Chicago (MWRDGC) enlisted Specialty Consulting, Inc. (SPC) in spearheading a comprehensive initiative aimed at conducting Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs) and Compliance Assessments along the Chicago Area Waterway System. The project involved multifaceted responsibilities, including creating an advanced online forum-based data management system. This system was meticulously designed to efficiently track, store, and disseminate reports to registered users within the MWRDGC and authorized participating companies.

SPC's team meticulously reviewed regulatory and on-site documentation to assess compliance with air, water, and waste regulations. This encompassed a detailed examination of Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures Plans, Facility Response Plans, and Risk Management Plans.

One unique challenge was ensuring seamless coordination and accessibility of information across multiple stakeholders within the MWRDGC and participating companies. SPC addressed this challenge by developing a user-friendly and robust online platform tailored to the project's specific needs.

Despite these challenges, SPC successfully led the completion of over fifty Phase I ESAs and Compliance Assessments, delivering comprehensive and actionable insights to support environmental safety and regulatory compliance along the Chicago Area Waterway System.
