University of Illinois-Chicago

Since 2008, EDI has held an Environmental Engineer Retainer contract with the University of Illinois-Chicago campus. Under this contract, EDI has performed Industrial Hygiene Services, and completed an Environmental Assessment (EA) for a proposed Health Center.

Industrial Hygiene work was completed for two campus renovation projects in 2010-Lecture Center F, and Douglas Hall. Renovation activities for the facilities included replacement of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment, and electrical, plumbing and life safety system upgrades. EDI's tasks entailed conducting representative sampling of suspect materials for Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM), the preparation of asbestos project design and specifications for the abatement process based on any ACM identified, and project management and air monitoring during abatement of identified ACM.
