This document describes two projects - Project SIGMA from 2006-2009 and Project GIA - that examined services for deaf elderly people in Germany. Project SIGMA found that deaf elderly have less family support and more isolation. They lack information about services due to inaccessible formats. Healthcare professionals have little knowledge of deaf needs. Project GIA then aimed to improve services for deaf elderly through two competence centers that would provide consulting, information, and networking to better serve deaf elderly individuals and connect them to appropriate care options. However, establishing and funding such centers remains a challenge.

Service Overview
A subsurface investigation to further evaluate the presence of detrimental impact to subsurface
soil, soil vapor and/or groundwater is often warranted at sites where potential environmental
concerns are identified. Nova’s subsurface investigations are carefully developed to
thoroughly assess locations of potential concern and any resulting risk to human health
or the environment, and are implemented in accordance with applicable local regulatory
requirements. On various sites, Nova designs and implements remedial investigations (RI)
and corrective action design (CAD) programs, and routinely develops a detailed feasibility
study analysis to establish mitigation solutions that are implementable, and cost effective.
Experience
Nova’s technical staff includes Professional Geologists (PGs) and Professional Engineers
(PEs) with extensive experience in performing real estate due diligence, site investigations and
corrective action/remediation. Nova’s staff has experience in the design and implementation
of a wide range of investigative methods and mitigation/remediation technologies, including:

Summary:
In response to identified contamination and
dump debris discovered during a road right-of-
way project, Nova directed the characterization,
excavation and off-site permitted disposal of
approximately 100 cubic yards of mercury-
contaminated material as part of an interim
Response Action Plan (RAP) during
initial construction activities. Subsequent
investigation, including organic vapor screening
and soil laboratory analyses, facilitated the
preparation and submittal of a comprehensive
RAP to the Voluntary Brownfields Program. The
RAP in part included additional segregation of
mercury-impacted soil with a Lumex® Mercury
Vapor Analyzer.
Highlights:
The comprehensive right-of-way cleanup
included the segregation, excavation and
off-site disposal of approximately 3,200 tons
of dump debris and contaminated soil along
the right-of-way embankment. Following
the excavation and off-site disposition of
the impacted materials, Nova characterized
the extent of excavation by collecting a
gridded array of confirmation soil samples for
applicable laboratory analyses and associated
sampling to assess any resulting impact to the
adjoining lake bottom sediment. The response
actions and risk assessment activities were
documented in a subsequent implementation
report that was submitted on behalf of the
client and was approved by the Voluntary
Brownfields Program.

PROPERTY CONDITION ASSESSMENT
ENERGY EFFICIENCYENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERINGREAL ESTATE DUE DILIGENCE HEALTH AND SAFETY
Service Overview
Property condition assessments are often required as part of pre-purchase, owner
commissioned or refinance transactions. Nova services include a site visit to evaluate the
general condition and maintenance history of the property and to assess the overall design
and construction of structures. All available on-site project and construction documentation is
reviewed, and interviews with property managers, tenants and local officials are conducted.
Nova’s property condition report offers a complete narrative on the condition and adequacy
of all site and building improvements and includes all required forms and information,
including items of deferred maintenance, estimates of immediate and annual replacement
reserves, and comments on the building’s conformance with code, ADA, unfinished work,
and FHA compliance.
Experience
Nova field professionals and team leaders have extensive experience performing and
managing high quality, thorough and timely Property Condition Reports. Our staff
includes registered architects, professional engineers and construction specialists.

Summary:
Nova’s Capital Markets Group was
commissioned to provide Property Condition
Assessments on a portfolio of high-rise office
and multifamily properties for a Major Life
Insurance Company. Included within the mix of
assets was the McGuire Apartments, a $32MM
25-story, mixed use development constructed
in 2001 within the Belltown Neighborhood of
Downtown Seattle.
Highlights:
Preliminary research conducted by Nova
uncovered multiple investigations into alleged
construction defects, including premature
corrosion of slab tendons, spalled concrete
floor slabs, and irregularities with the placement
of steel within the floor slabs. Nova immediately
advised the client of these past construction
issues.
The lender, upon review of Nova’s findings,
delayed funding the loan application until a
scope and cost for the mitigation of defects
could be determined. In March, 2010, the
borrower’s engineer determined that the cost to
mitigate (as high as $80MM) exceeded the cost
of construction. Residents and tenants were
asked to move from the building, and in April
of 2011, the McGuire Apartment Building was
demolished, just ten years after construction.
By commissioning a Property Condition
Assessment from Nova, the lender avoided
funding a large loan secured by a high-rise
asset that was demolished within two years of

Summary:
A Pre-Construction Document Review and
monthly Construction Monitoring was provided
for a commercial bank lending $10MM to a
developer to construct a full-service hotel in
the Midwest United States. The four-story hotel
building included 112 guestrooms and featured
extensive amenities and parking facilities. The
client’s main focus and concerns were primarily
the adequacy of the development budget and
the practicality of the construction schedule.
Highlights:
The Document Review revealed that utilities
were not available on the street adjacent
to the property which would have led to
extensive cost overruns and significant
delays. Identification of the issue during the
pre-construction phase enabled the lender
to modify the construction loan to account for
the increased construction costs. Throughout
the construction phase, Nova visited the site
monthly to monitor progress, workmanship
and the loan draw processes. The project was
completed two months early and under budget.

Summary:
Nova recently provided on-site air barrier
installation quality assurance observation
and testing services for a new elementary
school in Tonganoxie, Kansas. The two-story,
approximatly 120,000 square foot structure,
had a fluid-applied air barrier assembly applied
to sheathing prior to installation of the exterior
brick veneer and composite metal panel.
Highlights:
Nova completed multiple site visits during
construction to document the installation of
the air barrier system, window flashing and
exterior sheathing. Adhesion and thickness
tests were completed by certified personnel.
Nova reviewed the plans and specification
prior to the start of work and recommended
revisions to ensure the air barrier was
continuous and would perform as intended.
By working closely with the project architect,
the general contractor and the air barrier sub-
contractor, Nova helped ensure a quality air
barrier system free of defects was installed.

Summary:
As part of the client’s due diligence work,
Nova was hired to complete an equity-level
Property Condition Assessment for a retail
site in Snoqualmie, Washington. The project
consisted of five single-story retail buildings,
constructed in between 2003 and 2006. The
strip retail centers had a variety of exterior wall
finishes.
Highlights:
During the initial site observations for the PCA,
Nova determined the stucco clad elevations of
the building had excessive hairline cracking.
While on-site, our associate was able to contact
one of our in-house Registered Exterior Wall
Consultants to review the field conditions.
Working as a team, Nova was able to confirm
field conditions indicative of systemic failure.
We quickly communicated this information
and the potential cost impact to the client. A
follow-up site visit was scheduled to complete
an infrared assessment (moisture survey) and
to collect samples for petrographic analysis.
Based on the additional information obtained,
Nova was able to provide an accurate repair
scope and cost to our Ccient. While the original
PCA would have identified the issues with the
stucco, the true extent and overall cost impact
of the issue would have been an unknown risk.
The detailed scope and costs provided to the
client, gave them the information needed to
negotiate with the seller for corrective repairs.
By working closely with the current building
owner, their contractor and the client, Nova
was able to ensure repairs were properly
completed.

Summary:
Nova Consulting Group, Inc., was contracted
by a major food producing company to
evaluate employee exposure to smoke from
their pork smokehouse facility. The concern
was the potential exposure to by-products
from the incomplete combustion of wood
chips used in the smokehouses to add smoke
flavor and aromas to pork products. Nova
provided professional assistance to conduct a
workplace exposure assessment that included
an evaluation of the smoke generating
equipment and smokehouse seals ,and
conducted employee air sampling.
Solution:
The exposure assessment determined that
additional modifications were required to
control the smoke from escaping into the work
spaces and exposing employees. Additional
maintenance was scheduled to improve
smokehouse door seals, and ventilation
improvements reduced the loss of smoke into
workroom air during smokehouse operation.
