Removed
approximately 30,000 square feet of sprayed-on asbestos
containing material (ACM). Friable ACM had delaminated from
the tunnel walls/roof and particulate matter/dust had settled
on ducting / piping / horizontal surfaces of the facility
roof and floor. The project was completed in two phases.
Phase I included spill response/cleanup of the facility
roof, piping, ductwork, and all horizontal surfaces. Phase
II included the complete abatement of three dust barriers.
In order to expedite the fieldwork, the project schedule
included site work conducted six days per week, 24 hours
per day in 2 shifts. An additional ACM
coating was encountered during the asbestos abatement. Bhate
identified the material as ACM and developed a removal technique
to minimize schedule impact. The project, completed at one
of the nation's highest security facilites, was completed
to the satisfaction of our customers.
