Test Pit and Soil Boring Advancement Phase II Environmental Site Assessment Royal Electric Yard, Sykesville, Maryland

Solicitation # 6913G626Q300046

The U.S. Department of Transportation’s Volpe Center is supporting the EPA’s Targeted Brownfields Assessments Program by conducting a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment at the Royal Electric Yard located at 7512 Main St, Sykesville, Maryland. This effort follows a 2026 Phase I ESA that identified historic automotive junking activities and residual debris in the northern wooded portion of the 4.1-acre site, raising concerns about potential contamination from used oils, brake and hydraulic fluids, gasoline, diesel, mercury switches, asbestos, refrigerants, metals, batteries, and antifreeze. The assessment will advance soil borings and test pits specifically within the northern half of the property—the primary area of interest due to a pending sale—to determine if hazardous substances or petroleum products have migrated into the soil and groundwater. The site features a warehouse, woodworking shed, gravel parking lot, and access road in the southern area, while the northern section is an unmaintained wooded zone with variable topography, sloping southward and composed primarily of silt-loam and loam soils, with possible fill material beneath the warehouse area. The work is being conducted under a Small Business Set Aside solicitation with the number 6913G626Q300046, issued in August 2026, with responses due by August 11, 2026, and is managed through the Volpe Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with Roland Regan designated as the primary point of contact.
