Brownfields

Bringing Back Brownfields

Brownfield redevelopment has been a primary focus of KU Resources since the mid -1990s. Our dedication to risk-based site remediation allows our staff to create cost-effective solutions consistent with the planned future use of a site.

A unique combination of engineering expertise, understanding of federal and state regulatory requirements, and ability to work effectively with representatives of government agencies and departments, has enabled us to complete a wide range of brownfield redevelopment projects.

By understanding which regulations are firm, and which ones may be subject to flexibility, we can help you minimize project costs by devoting more resources to site characterization and evaluation activities than to the creation of plans and documents. In fact, our approach to projects has been proven to significantly reduce property owners’ remediation costs and increase the value of properties that have the potential to be redeveloped. We create innovative solutions that achieve the most efficient closure methods, and meet the letter and spirit of laws and regulations.

At KU Resources, we are committed to helping you: identify potential redevelopment sites; revitalize underused properties; achieve timely, cost-effective solutions; use scientific evidence to address risks to human health and the environment; leverage federal, state and local funds for site remediation; and create opportunities to improve the quality of life in local communities.

For environmental site assessments (ESAs), site characterizations, risk assessments, post-remediation care, funding assistance and more, we have the knowledge and experience you need.
