VERTEX/CAT conducted a Phase I ESA of an office building located directly on the Río de la Plata in the Puerto Madero Land Reclamation area in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Historic research indicated the site was previously developed with an industrial warehouse. Additionally, the entire surface water area of the Río De La Plata coastal zone is heavily polluted from current and historic domestic and industrial sewage discharges from the greater Buenos Aires urbanized area. The configuration of the site building included subgrade parking levels which were equipped with sumps to maintain a lowered groundwater table.
VERTEX/CAT was able to advise the client of their potential risk as it related to local regulations and the possible acquisition and redevelopment of this site considering the known groundwater contamination.
