Commodore Advanced Sciences, Inc. (CASI) offers structural,
civil, electrical, chemical and mechanical engineering support for remedial
design and facility management activities as well as support services including
engineering records management with an emphasis on providing rapid document
access and computer-aided design.
REPRESENTATIVE EXPERIENCE
FACILITY MANAGEMENT SUPPORT AT ETTP.
As a subcontractor to American Technologies, Inc., CASI is providing
engineering inspection/evaluation, facility condition assessment surveys and
waste management support for the US Department of Energy (DOE) Oak Ridge
facilities at East Tennessee Technology Park (ETTP). CASI' scope of work
includes annual inspections and evaluations of structural building systems in
Buildings K-27 and K-25, tracking deficiencies, recommending maintenance and
repair actions, and preparing comprehensive inspection reports. CASI also
conducts annual assessments of general facility conditions (inclusive of all
building systems) of approximately 7.2 million square feet of building space
following Department of Energy (DOE's) Condition Assessment Survey Program.
GENERAL ENGINEERING SERVICES SUPPORT TO BECHTEL JACOBS COMPANY
LLC.
As a subcontractor to Tetra Tech NUS, Inc., CASI provides general engineering
services (GES) to support the Bechtel Jacobs Environmental Management and
Integration contract at DOE Oak Ridge Operations. CASI has supported DOE
facilities in Oak Ridge, TN, Paducah, KY, and Portsmouth, OH. Work being
provided includes:

REPACKAGING PROCESS RELOCATION PROJECT. CASI provided
civil and structural engineering support for facility modifications and new
process equipment design to support relocation of the waste repackaging process
at the TSCA Incinerator. CASI designed the waste transfer conveyor system,
waste sorting table, and waste container tilting table apparatus. CASI also
provided engineering support to evaluate the load bearing capacity of the
building slab, contamination containment modifications and building access
modifications.
-
MODIFICATION OF CRASH GATES AT EAST
TENNESSEE TECHNOLOGY PARK (ETTP). CASI prepared conceptual and detailed
designs for modifying vehicle crash gates at ETTP. The original crash gates
were installed to discourage unauthorized vehicle access to Flanagan Loop Road
at ETTP and were originally designed to "breakaway" or fail upon vehicle impact
in an emergency that did not permit time for the gate to be manually opened.
The gate breakaway mechanism was aged, dysfunctional, high maintenance and
cost-prohibitive. CASI redesigned the gate configuration and breakaway
mechanism for ease of use and to minimize maintenance and upkeep costs, while
maintaining the original intent and functionality of the gates.
-
LOADING FACILITY DESIGN. CASI
is responsible for providing the design and construction drawings for a
reinforced concrete and structural steel loading facility required for loading
of waste shipping casks for spent nuclear fuel and remote handled low level
waste . The facility will be constructed in an existing sloped area, and the
design must consider a surcharge load from a 100-ton crane locked at the top of
the slope. Included in the project is a geotechnical investigation to
accurately evaluate strength and deformation characteristics of the soil to
ensure satisfactory and economical design of the foundation, retaining walls
and crane pad.
DESIGN/CONSTRUCTION SUPPORT UNDER THE HAZWRAP PROGRAM. Under
contract with Lockheed Martin Energy Systems, Inc., to provide support services
to the Hazardous Waste Remedial Actions Program, CASI prepared construction
plans and specifications to support remediation of several sites at Air
National Guard Bureau installations. CASI also prepared internal cost estimates
and provided technical support during construction, operation and closure
phases of various projects.
For example, CASI developed plans and specifications for removing, treating,
and/or disposing of inactive underground storage tanks and associated piping,
equipment, and liquid contents at two facilities in Virginia.
At two ANG sites in San Juan, Puerto Rico with shallow petroleum-contaminated
soil, CASI provided the engineering design for horizontal vapor extraction
systems, including revising the plans and specifications to accommodate a
proposed building addition.
MASSACHUSETTS MILITARY RESERVATION (MMR) FS-12 SOURCE AREA
REMEDIATION PROJECT. As part of a CERCLA time-critical removal action,
CASI designed a combined air sparging/soil vapor extraction system to remediate
petroleum-contaminated soil and groundwater in an 11-acre source area,
approximately 90 feet below grade. Detailed technical support and remediation
oversight was provided to the MMR IRP office to ensure that contract technical
requirements were met during the construction, operation and closure phases of
the project. System closure documentation was prepared by CASI. EPA Region I
and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection approved the FS-12
Source Area Remediation System for closure based on satisfactory accomplishment
of remediation goals and criteria.
ENGINEERING DOCUMENT CONTROL SERVICES TO ROCKY FLATS ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY
SITE. Through subcontracts with Kaiser-Hill Company, LLC, and other
subcontractors at Rocky Flats, CASI provides technical and administrative
support in comprehensive engineering document control. Tasks include document
filing/archiving, copying and distribution, quality control, CADD support and
implementation and maintenance of computer databases for managing engineering
documentation.
