Industriplex Superfund Site – Wetland Mitigation and Regulatory Support

Back to Project

Project Description

CEI provides ongoing wetland monitoring, ecological investigations, wetland mitigation design, and associated regulatory support for the Industriplex Superfund Site in Woburn, MA. CEI’s Robert Hartzel led development of a wetland/surface water mitigation plan for the Site that included wetland delineation, design of wetland creation areas, wetland and floodplain habitat enhancement, and improvement of aquatic habitat through construction of a fish ladder for anadromous species. He also led development of the Performance Standards and Applicable or Relevant & Appropriate requirements (ARARs) Attainment Plan for the Site and related coordination with USEPA. Ongoing work includes annual monitoring and reporting for wetland creation and habitat improvement areas, and development of a field protocol for survey of freshwater mussels within the Aberjona River (field survey conducted in summer 2021).
