CH2M HILL

Brownfield Redevelopment

CH2M HILL provides services to increase your asset's value while minimizing liabilities. Many of our clients own environmentally distressed properties with remediation liabilities and resultant depressed asset values. Other clients seek to buy properties for commercial redevelopment and utilization. We provide services to both groups.

For property owners and sellers—CH2M HILL assists in positioning clients' properties for sale or transfer with or without remediation liabilities. We can also assist in the selling of property as-is. Clients' corporate asset value can often be increased by the sale of a property if the value, as properly marketed for optimum land use, exceeds the cost of eliminating the remediation liability. The sale or transfer of the property and the elimination of the remediation corporate liability improves the corporate balance sheet.

For property buyers and redevelopers—CH2M HILL assists in matching sellers to buyers. We then assist the buyer in developing the property, including elimination of the remediation liability. CH2M HILL's involvement assures the buyer and seller that the remediation will be done in a high quality manner, consistent with development plans, and that the liability will not return to the seller.

Waste Management

There's no shortage of waste. However, there is a shortage of knowledge about turning waste into a financial and environmental asset—how to go beyond "reduce, reuse, recycle" to potentially generate new revenue at the same time that we help sustain the environment.

At CH2M HILL, we help you to eliminate waste entirely or convert it to a useful product. In fact, we have used new and emerging technologies to develop systems that achieve more than 85 percent recovery or reuse of materials that were formerly considered waste.

CH2M HILL provides you with comprehensive waste resource and management solutions, whether you're in government, industry, or business. From planning, designing and constructing waste system infrastructure, to innovative technologies and systems to process, recycle, reuse, and dispose of waste, our firm is a leader in sustainable waste stream optimization.

Our patented technologies include C:N Composting Systems and BIOCLEAN Biofiltration Systems.
