NYC 9/11 Public Portal Document

DEP, in conjunction with EPA, found that buildings containing debris characteristic of the debris from the impact of the collapse of the WTC were identified and remediation was commenced. Debris removal fi-om the immediate areas of destruction in the WTC complex has been completed, the remaining unoccupied buildings identified as potentially contaminated must be rid of debris. As local residents are concerned that apartments may contain debris from the WTC catastrophe, it was deemed necessary to establish a call center to provide residents a means of obtaining professional cleaning services and testing. USEPA has determined that an expedited clean-up of buildings containing debris is in the public interest and it is necessary to ensure the air quality of the affected area is as pure as possible. The area designated for such clean-up was divided into four quadrants, each requiring remediation and air monitoring.

Procurement: DEP’s Bureau of Environmental Compliance identified 25 contractors able to perform the scope of work required for the emergency cleap-up and established a bidder list:

On August 12, 2002, the solicitation documents were provided to the 25 firms. Thirteen bids were received and opened on the August 26, 2002 due date. The lowest bid, $4,154,170, was submitted by Xaren Corp. (“Xaren”). Although requested to do so by DEP. Xaren was unable to provide proof that it had obtained the required insurance. Its bid was deemed non-responsive. JBH Environmental Inc. (“JBH”) submitted the second lowest bid of $4,505,600. JBH was able to provide proof of the required insurance.

A review of the VENDEX database shows no cautions for JBH Environmental Inc.
