Phase I Environmental Assessments
for the Maryland Aviation Administration (MAA)
Due to expansion, the MAA was purchasing nearby properties for
redevelopment. Prior to purchase, it was necessary to determine
if any environmental liability exists at the properties. AmDyne
completed the environmental assessments by conducting a historical
records search of the property, completing an environmental
records review and performing property reconnaissance. AmDyne
then prepared and submitted a report that included findings
and conclusions. In addition to the Phase I ESA, AmDyne conducted
a screening for asbestos containing materials (ACM) and lead
based paint (LBP) at the subject site. |

Medical Waste Incinerator Effluent System
Investigation
AmDyne diagnosed the pitfalls of the medical waste incinerator
at the Malcolm Grow Medical Center (MGMC) and made repair recommendations.
The system was installed by AmDyne and per regulatory mandate
the system was set up to record data on one minute intervals
from both the incinerator and scrubber. Secondary chamber temperature
from the incinerator, pressure drop, flow rate, pH and outlet
temperature from scrubber, position of the stack cap, weight
and time of each charge to the incinerator. |

Fuel Stations Secondary Containment Systems
AmDyne supported a large environmental compliance project at
Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland. This project involved installing
secondary containment tanks at fuel stations on the base to
capture fuel spilled as a result of any mishap in fueling operations.
AmDyne was responsible for the construction of these tank systems
including scheduling, procuring specialized, long-lead time
items, on-base coordination and logistics, as well as managing
on-site construction and installation of these systems. |

Oil Water Separator Upgrades and Service
AmDyne provided Engineering and Infrastructure support to
the Fort Meade Public Works Department for Oil/Water Separator
servicing and upgrades. These oil/water separators are located
at seven different locations throughout the installation.
AmDyne is managing and executing all phases of work for this
project under the field supervision of Corps of Engineers
Field Quality Assurance Personnel. The preliminary logistics,
consisting of pre-construction site visits, scheduling, subcontractor
agreements, obtaining permits, utility clearances and pre-construction
coordination have been completed and field work is currently
ongoing. |

Environmental Assessment and Upgrades
to ASTs
The Patuxent River Naval Air Station Utilities Division had
a requirement to conduct repairs to three Aboveground Storage
Tanks (ASTs) located at the base. The tanks contained either
JP-5 or heating oil and ranged in size from 567,000-gallons
to 1,400,000-gallons. These repairs were required to comply
with federal and state environmental regulations. The repairs
included making upgrades to spill containment berms, installing
cathodic protection systems, and removing and replacing below
ground piping with above ground piping. Design reviews were
conducted at the 60% and 100% levels, and the final product
was PE-certified. The drawing package and specifications,
which included repair cost estimates, contained the necessary
repairs and upgrade to ensure that the ASTs are in compliance
with all federal and state regulations.
