Harrison Avenue Landfill – Landfill Remediation and Redevelopment | Camden, New Jersey
About
Ray and Joan Kroc Corp Community Center
Rising from the rubble of an old Landfill in Camden is the beginning of a new era for the residents of the Cramer Hill section of Camden, New Jersey. The Salvation Army Camden Citadel is developing the Ray and Joan Kroc Corp Community Center (RJKCCC) at 1865 Harrison Avenue in Camden, on the former Harrison Avenue Landfill.
This designated Brownfield Development Area (BDA) project includes investigation and redevelopment of the approximately, 85-acre Harrison Avenue Landfill on behalf of the Salvation Army, Camden.
The project has been ongoing since 2006, when the Salvation Army Camden was awarded $59 million to construct and operate the community center. DSR has been retained to provide landfill expertise and has been involved in the project through investigation, design, remediation, and construction of the Community Center facility. As part of the remedial team being led by Dresdner Robin Environmental Management (DREM), DSR has brought forth numerous cost savings and innovative strategies for the project, reducing remedial and post-closure costs for the client.
Remedial work is nearing completion and the Center is expected to open in October 2014.
