On September 1, 2010 Roberto Clemente Leadership Academy students, teachers, administrators and parents celebrated the first day of school in their new building, located at 360 Columbus Avenue in New Haven. EnviroMed Services was proud to be a part of this successful project. In 2008, EnviroMed Services inspection team completed a full asbestos, lead-based paint, and other hazardous materials inspections for the old Roberto Clemente School building. Abatement specifications and drawings were prepared by EnviroMed project designers for various hazardous and regulated hazardous materials.  EnviroMed Services provided project close out reports to the New Haven Public Schools for their review. Final reports included the final air clearance testing, daily logs, signing sheets, contractor’s qualifications and licenses.

The overall scope for this project is to demolish the existing school building and build a new Carrington School. EnviroMed Services inspection team has completed full asbestos, lead-based paint, PCBs testing for the building.  PCBs containing building materials were discovered in the initial limited inspection in 2010 in the interior and the exterior of the school building. PCBs in air and wipe testing were completed for the interior of the building to document the level of contamination, results were found to be higher than the acceptable limits. EnviroMed has developed several feasible solutions to reduce the level of PCB contamination in the air, solutions included periodic cleaning for the school by maintenance staff, painting contaminated surfaces, and improving the ventilation throughout the school. PCBs were found in over than 30 different materials throughout the building including caulking, flooring and paint.

EnviroMed Services project design team has prepared Self Implementing Plan (SIP) and abatement drawings for both asbestos and PCB. Our project manager assisted the City of Waterbury with contractor pre-bid walkthrough and the selection process. EnviroMed Services’ monitoring team performed asbestos monitoring, PCB clearances and dust monitoring prior and during demolition activities.
