Fort Belvoir, VA
Beginning in 2005, tens of thousands of new employees came to Fort Belvoir through a process known as Base Realignment and Closure. Part of the site, however, had formerly been used as training ranges and first needed to be remediated to remove potential unexploded ordinances (UXO) and other solid waste. The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Baltimore District awarded Conti this remediation project under its Small Business Total Environmental Restoration Contract.
Conti performed UXO and solid waste removal and site restoration on 820 acres at the Fort Belvoir Engineer Proving Ground (EPG). Conti managed UXO investigation and removal on training ranges with known or suspected ordnance and explosives, remediation of 17 solid waste management units and implementation of an existing closure plan for a hazardous waste management unit. The team performed UXO surveys, including geophysical surveys on the 10 former ranges, and magnetometer-assisted surface clearance on 275 acres outside the ranges. Contaminants included munitions explosives, petroleum hydrocarbons and metals.
Conti also managed analytical data into the existing environmental database and loaded geographical data into the facility’s geographic information system. Conti documented historical knowledge of the site activities by interviewing former EPG employees. The team performed the work on an extremely tight schedule.
“Conti hit the ground running and met every milestone date even though sites evolved into larger sites than originally conceived.” - David Morrow, USACE

Israel’s primary spaceport and one of its most technologically advanced air force bases requires the most up-to-date facilities to operate on the highest level.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) directed the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) to develop and install recovery centers in response to the impact of several devastating hurricanes and Florida’s need for emergency assistance.
Conti mobilized 100% of project crews within four days to clear 174,000 tons of hurricane waterway debris along the Atlantic Coast.
