Wonder Lake, IL

Champion Environmental Services, Inc has been retained by the Village of Wonder Lake, Illinois to remove an aged water tower. The structure is located in a dense region of the neighborhood; as a result, we will not “drop” the tower.

The elevated water tower will be carefully dismantled. All portions of the structure will then be methodically deconstructed on the ground for recycling.

Only our most highly skilled operators, laborers, site safety supervisors, and other associated field personnel will be mobilized for this project. Extreme care must be taken to ensure insure the protection of our workers and the surrounding community.

The effort has a very tight schedule calling for one week of on-site work.

Fire Sale 2010 Part II

The insanity continues - bid results just into our office. The scope here is an extensive amount of ACM pipe and associated fittings. While 85% of the abatement is readily exposed, some selective demolition is involved to reach part of the chases. An additional quantity of ACM floor mastic rounds the project.

Despite the public nature of these bid results, I still feel it is of little value to debase a competitor by naming each company here.

$77,550
$71,100
$63,550
$58,850
$43,820
$36,641

The numbers, particularly the low bid at $36,641, reflects troubled insensibility that has polluted our industry.

An Overdue Update

As of late, it has become increasing more difficult to diligently keep people informed of all that is taking place at Champion Environmental Services, Inc.

The high season for asbestos abatement at schools and universities is starting to slow. None-the-less, there are several substantial demolition jobs that we are getting ready to facilitate.

Champion Environmental Services, Inc. was just awarded work on behalf of the Chicago Housing Authority to perform demolition and asbestos abatement at the Le Claire Court housing complex.

Demolition and asbestos abatement at the West Lawn Housing Authority in the City of Milwaukee just kicked off. Additional work is being performed throughout Milwaukee in an attempt to rid the community of blighted homes that have succumbed to economic misfortune. We are also helping to resolve buildings damaged by recent flooding in Milwaukee.

Mobilization will begin this week to demolish a city owned apartment complex in Wisconsin.

The Illinois EPA is in the process of approving our contaminated asbestos soil cleanup at the former Trinity Nursing School in Moline, Illinois. Analytical samples are being processed and we are expecting approval to move forward with demolition this week.

Champion received final air clearance for asbestos work completed at Chicago State University; the successful project finished ahead of schedule.
