School Site Selection Studies and Evaluations:
William Hoffman oversaw site selection studies for school sites throughout the State of Maine with the attendant preparation of documents to support the school’s application to the State for site selection approval. Site selection studies include the Gorham Middle School, the MSAD #48 middle schools in Newport and Hartland, the Windsor School expansion, the selection of the new K-8 school site for Sabattus and School Union 44, the MSAD #51 middle school in Cumberland, and other facilities in the State of Maine.

This experience culminates in broad experience of site selection and evaluation of methods to overcome site limitations including gravel pits, nearby landfills, wetlands, bedrock, and other site constraints. DeLuca-Hoffman Associates, Inc. has prepared a graphic manual identifying common constraints for use with schools throughout the State and is very familiar with the seemingly conflicting goals of MeDEP and natural resource agencies, the Maine Department of Transportation, utility providers, the State Planning Office, and the budgetary constraints of the State of Maine Department of Education and local schools.

At the post-secondary level, Bill Hoffman has been actively involved in the University of Southern Maine Gorham campus upgrades, including the internal loop roads and parking, the Field House, the Ice Arena, and the academic admissions area upgrade.

The firm also has extensive experience in the design and selection of utility services for schools including state-of-the-art pretreatment facilities with groundwater discharge, fire ponds, and public utility extensions.

Permitting for Institutional Facilities:
William Hoffman and DeLuca-Hoffman Associates, Inc. have a proven record of assisting schools and architects in site permit application preparation and the local, State, and Federal approval processes. Experience with permitting needs and requirements has been vital to the ability of DeLuca-Hoffman Associates, Inc to establish realistic budgets for site development prior to local referenda.

Mr. Hoffman as President of the firm provides overall design management of the firm while taking a personal interest in the development of the engineering staff and the civil environmental engineering projects of the firm.
