Follow on Google News | GZA GeoEnvironmental Inc. Subsidiary Huff & Huff Earns 2015 ACEC-Illinois Engineering AwardBy: GZA GeoEnvironmental The project upgraded and expanded the existing interchange making it the first “Green” Interchange on the Illinois Tollway. The project emphasized energy conservation in the construction and operation phases and improved water quality by reducing storm water runoff and enhancing treatment. Energy savings were achieved through the use of warm-mix asphalt, geothermal energy sources, a reflective roof on control buildings, and LED lighting. Water quality was improved by using permeable pavement for greater infiltration and by using infiltration cells, micro pools, plantings and bioswales to filter out suspended solids and contaminants. “We are proud of our Huff & Huff team and I congratulate them on the completion of this impressive project and the recognition gained from ACEC,” said William Hadge, President and CEO of GZA GeoEnvironmental, Inc. “The use of recycled materials and the energy conservation on this infrastructure project sets a new standard in environmental engineering.” About GZA Founded in 1964, GZA GeoEnvironmental, Inc. is a multi-disciplinary firm providing Environmental, Geotechnical, Ecological, Water, and Construction Management services.
