Southern University at New Orleans Environmental Site Assessment

Southern University at New Orleans (SUNO) was interested in purchasing a 38-acre piece of property for expansion of their campus. The site contained two 20,000-SF office buildings with associated driveways and parking areas.

SUNO asked Burk-Kleinpeter, Inc. to conduct a Phase I Environmental Assessment of the Lakefront property. The assessment included Asbestos Abatement Design and an Asbestos and Lead Paint Survey.

A comprehensive review of governmental records indicated the listed sources would not cause environmental impairment to the property. Leaking underground storage tanks or electrical equipment containing PCBs were not seen as a risk to the property's environment.

BKI concluded there were no potential hazards on or adjacent to the site.
