SAN DIEGO, CA –SCS Engineers received a Project Merit: Redevelopment Award for its investigation and design program for COMM22, a multi-family residential development by BRIDGE Housing. The award was presented by the Environmental Business Journal at its 19th annual Business Achievement awards in March.

COMM22 is a mixed-use, mixed-income, transit-oriented development built on a former bus maintenance facility. SCS addressed several issues including underground storage tanks and the testing of fill soils. The firm’s pre-construction characterization and three-dimensional data analysis resulted in time and budget savings.

“Our remediation effort on this property ensured that human health and the environment were protected as cost-effectively as possible,” said Dan Johnson, vice president of SCS. “Affordable housing is important to San Diego communities and we applaud the work of BRIDGE Housing and the collaboration it takes to create urban projects like this.”
