Eric J. Spirtas – Leading the Industry
Utilizing the Right Equipment for the Right Job!
Contractor Breaks Away from Traditional Demolition Methods (“ENR.com”)
Demolition contractor Eric Spirtas has a lot of machines, including 20 excavators, 12 track
loaders, 20 skid steers, 8 mini-track excavators, and 20 track excavators. The brands vary;
he has bought what he felt would perform best for each kind of work he comes up against.
But he wanted one more. “I explained to my banker why this machine is such a good
investment,” says Spirtas. “Measured against manual production, I can say that I save in
one week what $40,000 worth of hand labor would have been. This machine pays for
itself.”
Spirtas, owner of St. Louis-based Spirtas Wrecking Co., recently purchased a Komatsu
excavator equipped with an 82-ft-high reach boom. The new boom, designed and
manufactured by Komatsu, is engineered for demanding demolition applications.
With an operating weight of 118,915 lbs, the Komatsu PC450LCD-6 provides 306 hp to
boost productivity in all demolition operations. Outfitted with a JRB CXI (Custom
Excavators Incorporated) 17R cutter crusher, the excavator has 175 tons of crushing force.
Third-member mounting provides 360-degree attachment rotation.
“Due to my schedule, I had one hour to actually work with the PC450 at Komatsu’s
‘Demolition Days’—that is all it took for me to decide. I was impressed by its ability to
reach up, over, and across, and accurately grab and cut a target point,” Spirtas says. “I
saw how it would save me man-hours and improve productivity.”
Spirtas finds the high-reach boom unit to be more than just another excavator model. “It’s
a multi-purpose tool that lets me rethink the way I approach a demolition job,” he says.
“Without the long arm, I would be bidding the same job, but I’d be using the traditional
labor-intensive, more costly methods of bringing down a structure. The PC450 is
something no one can compete with— at least not until they want to invest in what I’ve
got in this excavator.”
In fact, his is one of only a handful in the U.S. so far.

Biographical Sketch
Eric J. Spirtas – President
2012
After graduating from ASU in 1988 with a business marketing degree and running a Family
Environmental Remediation firm through 1991, Eric J. Spirtas joined, grew and ultimately became
president of one of the country’s largest demolition and remediation firms Spirtas Wrecking Company.
Serving as president of this full service prime contracting firm from 1996 - 2004 was a key part of Eric J.
Spirtas’ professional business education.
Performing National and International Contracting Operations, including but not limited to;
Demolition, Decommissioning, Nuclear Remediation, Environmental Clean Up, Emergency Response,
Implosion, Property Management, General Contracting and Site Development have led to a contracting
knowledge and approach that proves successful for client based solutions and analysis. Estimating,
Consulting, Managing, Coordinating and Solving Client Problems continues to be the greatest service
offered by our team.
Projects that Mr. Spirtas has won and decommissioned through competitive bid include the
complete demolition and remediation of Lambeau Field in Green bay, McNichols Arena and Mile High
Stadium in Denver, The Checker Dome in St. Louis Missouri as well as an array of hundreds of ‘million

available funds to decommission the old, liquidate and recycle the re-usable and capture the Re-Newable
energy that is available along the way.

for select clients, Spirtas has assembled national property holdings (“inventory”) and develops these
properties personally and on behalf of clients and partners.
It is the decades of project management, asset acquisition and sales that Eric J. Spirtas of the

Risk Transfer Services
NIAGARA has found that the “Rasher-Colangelo” formula works well when assessing the intrinsic or baseline
value of an environmentally impacted property.
 BMV = (CMV) – (IC + EL + OL + R + K)
 Where BMV = Brownfield Market Value
 CMV = Clean Market Value (Value derived using traditional real estate market appraisal
techniques – assuming no environmental liabilities and highest and best use).
 IC = Investigative Costs (Phase I & II implementation, study & analysis).
 EL = Environmental Liabilities (The cost to cure, or clean up the property and reduction in value,
if any, due to stigma).
 OL = Other Liabilities (Legal fees, brokerage commissions, cost of carry, deferred maintenance
issues etc.).
 R = Repositioning Costs (Expenses related to achieving highest and best use such as rezoning,
demolition, permits, consulting studies, appraisals and non environmental legal services).
 K = Rate of Return & Projected Risk (Normal anticipated rate of return on an investment plus a
risk premium that rewards higher project exposure).
Our Six-Step Process to Redeploy Underutilized Property Assets
Let us Analyze Your Portfolio
Step 1: Economic and Market Trend Analysis
Market researchers identify area demographics, employment growth rates, industry trends and competitive supply within a
determined geographic region by interviewing economic development officials, brokers, real estate developers, tenants,
manufacturers and property owners. Using the data collected, we can then forecast absorption and occupancy rates for a variety
of reuse scenarios.
Step 2: Existing Property Evaluation
Our professional, dedicated team of architects and environmental and civil engineers review the existing context and property
characteristics, including surrounding land uses, access and utility infrastructure, buildings and site improvements, applicable
zoning and land use regulations, environmental status of property, and easements and other legal constraints.
Step 3: Develop Alternative Reuse Concepts
Alternate use plans are considered, which respond to current and projected market demand. We demonstrate the attainability
of plans given zoning issues, community needs, government attitudes, current site characteristics, environmental constraints and
prospective users.
Step 4: Analyze Financial Impacts of Alternative Reuse Concepts
Financial analysts estimate development costs and sale / lease rates, determining the impact that those estimates will have on
projected cash flow. The availability of public / private financing is explored, and realistic financial and risk analyses are
projected to determine potential development value.
Step 5: Analyze Disposition Alternatives
Sale, Lease, Joint Venture or Donation. With market-driven reuse options detailed, we analyze alternative means of disposition
of the property in light of our client’s objectives. Then, working with management, a specific disposition strategy is
recommended to achieve the optimum benefit for the corporation.
Step 6: Implementation of the Exit Strategy
Once the recommendations have been presented to and accepted by management, we employ all market resources to identify
potential parties interested in the purchase, donation, joint venture or lease of the repositioned property. We can then represent
the property owner in the negotiation to assure that the goals of our client are met.
