Asbestos Inspection Services
EnviroMed’s Asbestos Inspectors tested the interior and surfaces of building materials for asbestos using asbestos sample collection. Materials tested were including walls and ceilings as well as components of windows, doors, moldings, casings, stairs, thresholds, and railings. Specifically, asbestos sampling includes various materials that are suspect throughout a building’s interior and exterior: roofing; roof flashing; wallboard; ceiling tiles; floor tiles; glue mastics; boiler insulation; pipe coverings; siding; and miscellaneous materials that are suspected to contain asbestos.
A report with the following sections was prepared: narrative summary; results table; sample data that confirms or negates the presence of asbestos-containing building materials. As part of EnviroMed’s inspection services, a digital photo journal of the exterior elevation of each property will be prepared and shall become part of the asbestos abatement/hazard reduction plan.
Asbestos Abatement Plan and Cost Estimates
EnviroMed’s Licensed Project Designers developed a scope of work for the abatement of asbestos hazards. An abatement plan was prepared to detail the abatement work and control methods to be used by a licensed abatement contractor. The specification includes: required submittals and notices; contractors’ qualification and responsibilities; required tools and equipment; personal protection requirements; preparation of asbestos control areas; abatement methods; decontamination procedures; re-occupancy clearance test criteria; and disposal requirements for hazardous asbestos waste. Alternate Work Practices (AWP’s) will be prepared as necessary to minimize cost and maintain the necessary levels of health and safety at the job site. A cost estimate was prepared for review by the designated project manager for the City of Waterbury. All reports and work outlines (asbestos hazard reduction/abatement; management plans; floor plans) were computer-generated and all drawings include dimensions.
Visual Inspections and Re-Occupancy Clearance Testing
EnviroMed’s Licensed Asbestos Project monitors performed visual inspections during a site visit for each science room that has been completed by the contractor.
Upon completion of interior abatement, asbestos air samples were collected in accordance with the State of Connecticut Department of Public Health criteria for re-occupancy following an asbestos abatement.
Lead-Based Paint Inspection Services
EnviroMed’s Licensed Lead Inspectors tested the surfaces of interior and exterior building materials for lead-based paint using an X-ray Fluorescence Analyzer (XRF). A surface-by-surface lead inspection was conducted using an XRF. Painted surfaces includes paint applied to walls, ceilings, and painted or stained components of windows, doors, moldings, casings, stairs, thresholds, and railings.
A report with the following sections was prepared: narrative summary; results table; sample data that confirms or negates the presence of toxic lead-based paint. As part of EnviroMed’s inspection services, a digital photo journal of the exterior elevation of each property was prepared and shall become part of the lead abatement/hazard reduction plan.
Risk Assessment and Lead Hazard Reduction/Lead Abatement Plan Cost Estimates
EnviroMed’s Licensed Project Designers developed a scope of work for the abatement of lead-based paint hazards. A lead abatement plan was prepared to detail the abatement work and control methods to be used by a licensed lead abatement contractor. The specification includes: required submittals and notices; contractors’ qualifications and responsibilities; required tools and equipment; personal protection requirements; preparation of lead control areas; abatement methods; decontamination procedures; re-occupancy clearance test criteria; and disposal requirements for hazardous lead-bearing waste. A cost estimate was prepared for review by the designated project manager for the City of Waterbury. All reports and work outlines (asbestos hazard reduction/abatement; management plans; floor plans) were computer-generated and all drawings include dimensions.
Visual Inspections and Re-Occupancy Clearance Testing
EnviroMed’s Licensed Lead Inspectors performed visual inspections during a site visit for each building unit that has been completed by the contractor.
Upon completion of interior abatement, lead-in-dust wipe samples were collected in accordance with the State of Connecticut Department of Public Health criteria for re-occupancy following a lead abatement project.
Inspection of the Arch area for potential asbestos containing materials, potential lead-based paint, and other hazardous materials was completed by EnviroMed. A sampling plan was proposed by EnviroMed to NYCDOT for the following concerns: sample ceiling plaster (two layers of plaster), sample pipe insulation, inspect and sample the office partitions and doors for asbestos, test the paint for lead, sample the dust via bulk samples and analyze for asbestos and lead, perform TCLP sampling and analysis for building debris prior to disposal, and characterize the liquid wastes in storage. Personal sampling during the work was recommended for lead in air, asbestos in air and total particulate.
Full detailsEnviroMed has provided numerous Industrial Hygiene Services for Covidien Surgical Devices (formerly US Surgical) in order to aid them in ensuring a safe work place for their employees, as well as compliance with OSHA regulations. EnviroMed has provided employee exposure monitoring for ethylene oxide, xylene, formaldehyde, respirable particulates, tetrachloroethylene, asbestos, and other analytes.
Working with Covidien to review the chemicals and processes they utilize for manufacturing and sterilization, EnviroMed is able to provide monitoring services that ensure employee safety, and regulatory compliance, for a safe work environment at their facilities.
Full detailsEnviroMed Services provides safety training based on OSHA regulations to the Wallingford Department of Public Works facilities and the Electric Division facilities. EnviroMed Services provides OSHA training programs for the Wallingford Electric Division for the past 10 years to meet their responsibility under OSHA regulations. EnviroMed Services personnel conducted an audit of town’s public utility maintenance and distribution system and work crew. EnviroMed Services personnel visited sites, which included observing daily activities that were conducted for the work crew, log our observations, have any dangerous work habits changed and abated. Once EnviroMed Services site visit and observation were completed our client asked us to write actual OSHA safety programs for the city to follow. The city at the time had no such programs and was in need of such programs. EnviroMed wrote the following OSHA Safety Programs that are being used by this client today:
