- Fast tracked design-build process to accelerate availability for industrial/ commercial development.
- Multi-phase project including design and planning, site preparation, dredging, dewatering of contaminated sediment, treatment of resulting filtrate water and contaminated sediment, transportation of the remediated sediment for disposal, and site restoration.
- Treatment of sediment was performed in a closed-loop system to eliminate potential for a release of contamination to downstream drainage system.
- Based on analytical and physical parameters, remediated sediment met Massachusetts unlined landfill disposal requirements.
- Very successful project, client and site owner satisfied, under budget and on time.

Nobis Engineering, Inc. was selected by the Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), New England District to perform Remedial Actions and Site Closure of a fire pond, located at the Devils Foot Road Dump Site on the Former West Davisville Naval Construction Battalion Center in North Kingstown, RI. The primary objective of the sites owner, the Rhode Island Economic Development Council (RIDEC), is to develop a commercial / industrial park.
Nobis designed and executed the remedial action, which included the removal, dewatering, and treatment of pond sediment that was contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons, polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) from past military operations and releases.
