In June 2010 the Development Agent requested that EnviroMed provide asbestos, lead and hazardous material inspections, specifications and coat estimates associated with Buildings 3, 5, 6 and 7 in the 500-unit housing complex in Hartford, Connecticut. As part of the overall scope of project, EnviroMed provided cost estimates associated with the removal of asbestos–containing flooring, roofing and sink mastic, and also provided cost estimates for lead safe conditions on the exterior components including window casements and soffits.
EnviroMed also prepared Asbestos/Lead O&M Plans for Shepherd Park Apartment Building. The information obtained during February 2010 inspections, performed by EnviroMed Services for Shepherd Park Apartment Building, was used to prepare the O&M Plan for the facility.
The purpose of developing an O&M Plan was to provide the specific work procedures that are necessary to work with the asbestos-containing material found, in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements. In addition, an inventory was established for each type of regulated material present at the Shepherd Park Apartment building for easy reference by Shepherd Park Apartment building, maintenance and supervisory personnel.
EnviroMed provided a manual for the facility, which incorporated the asbestos inspection findings in a spreadsheet format including the approximate quantity and location of confirmed Asbestos-Containing Materials (ACM) and lead painted surfaces in the building.
In addition, EnviroMed developed standard Work Practices and Procedures specific to each confirmed ACM found which can be used by the facility personnel affected by the program.
The goal was to provide a concise and easy-to-use reference document that can be periodically updated and modified to reflect change in the inventory of regulated materials at these facilities.
