Asbestos Management and Testing

Asbestos Survey

DAMAR Environmental's team has conducted numerous asbestos inspections across residential, commercial, and industrial properties. We take a meticulous approach to each survey to minimize costs and project timelines. Recognizing that the survey is a critical step in identifying asbestos hazards and guiding future safety measures, we prioritize providing thorough and actionable results, enabling our clients to make informed decisions.

Asbestos Management

We offer comprehensive consulting services from project design through remediation and final documentation. We recommend involving an environmental consultant during the design phase to ensure awareness of all compliance processes and avoid unnecessary delays.

After the asbestos survey, there are various options to address health and safety concerns. While abatement is sometimes necessary, encapsulation and enclosure often provide a more cost-effective and safe solution — we avoid unnecessary removal that can delay projects, instead focusing on tailored approaches that meet regulatory standards and our clients' objectives.

For large-scale renovations or demolitions requiring full remediation, our team collaborates closely with other trades to create integrated schedules and timelines, ensuring a seamless abatement process.

Asbestos Variance Documentation and Filing

Each asbestos-related project comes with unique challenges and documentation requirements. Damar Environmental assists building owners, abatement contractors, and owner's representatives in navigating the regulatory landscape to meet all necessary documentation standards, including:

  • ATRU WPSP: Asbestos Technical Review Unit Work Place Safety Plan
  • ACP5: Asbestos Assessment Report
  • ACP9: Asbestos Variance Application
  • ACP15: Project Monitor's Report
  • ACP20 & ACP21: Asbestos Project Conditional / Final Completion Forms
  • A-TR1: Technical Report Statement of Responsibility
  • NYSDOL Asbestos Variance Application

Lead-Based Paint Testing

Lead-based paint is commonly found in structures built before 1978, including residential, commercial, industrial, and public buildings. It is essential to consider its presence during any renovation or demolition project, especially in facilities occupied by children, who are particularly vulnerable to lead poisoning.

DAMAR Environmental's team includes USEPA-licensed lead-based paint inspectors and risk assessors who conduct thorough inspections and collect dust wipe and air samples for post-remediation clearance, using advanced technology such as X-ray Fluorescence for non-destructive, efficient testing.

Mold and Indoor Air Quality Testing

Airborne fungal spores and poor indoor air quality can lead to Sick Building Syndrome (SBS), causing acute health effects for occupants in both work and residential settings, and reduced workplace productivity.

  • Interviewing building occupants to document complaints and symptoms
  • Conducting visual investigations to identify potential causes
  • Collecting air samples for laboratory analysis of fungal spore concentrations
  • Using direct-read instruments to detect harmful gases
  • Reviewing and inspecting ventilation systems for effectiveness

Our strict record-keeping ensures clients have complete documentation of every corrective measure taken to address indoor air quality concerns.
