Real Estate Recycling (RER) purchased the property from Lewis Bolt & Nut and the tax forfeit Metal Coatings site from Hennepin County.  After a thorough investigation and Remedial Action Plan (RAP) approval by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), RER demolished the old structures and implemented the RAP in a two month period.  Steel from the old buildings was recycled and all concrete was crushed and recycled on site.  Implementation of the approved RAP gives liability protection to RER, lenders and any future owner of the property.
