MENTOR-PROTEGE

R8I Cabrera Remediation & Construction, LLC (R8I Cabrera) is a mentor-protégé joint venture of Region 8 International (R8I) and Cabrera. R8I is a SBA 8(a) certified, Native Hawaiian-owned corporation headquartered in Denver, CO. Core competencies are environmental services including remediation and general construction services.

R8I Cabrera is the prime contractor for the Iowa Army Ammunition Plant OU-8 (IAAAP) remediation in Middletown, IA. IAAAP encompasses approximately 19,000 acres, including active and inactive production and storage areas, undeveloped areas, and agricultural leases. The primary contaminants of concern include explosives, metals, volatile organic compounds, and depleted uranium (DU). R8I Cabrera’s five year contract focuses on the removal of DU-contaminated soil and associated debris by sorting the soil and debris based on its radioactive content. R8I Cabrera is segregating DU-contaminated soil and debris from clean soil, and transporting and disposing of the waste at an off-site permitted facility.  Our team’s combination of in-house capabilities and 20 years of experience remediating 17 USACE FUSRAP sites ensures we will enable USACE St. Louis District to realize their mission on this important project.
