Directedmultiple survey teams certified in both lead andasbestos inspections. Provided precise quantification ofasbestos-containing materials into spreadsheets forbidding specifications. Wrote several South CoastAQMD Procedure 5 work plans and contaminationassessment reports.Managed asbestos, lead-based paint, and mold projectfor Los Angeles Harbor College. Directed survey offour buildings circa 1950s. Provided separateabatement specifications for asbestos, lead-based paint,and mold. Assisted construction manager in the bidprocess. Provided additional value by coordinatingconcurrent abatement activities in different buildingswhile using a phased approach for the abatement ofdifferent materials (asbestos, lead, and mold) inaccordance with client requirements.Conducted hazardous materials survey for asbestos,lead paint, and PCBs for industrial and marine coatingsfacility. Site consisted of a 12-building manufacturingfacility with resin and solvent tank farm. Tabulatedresults of survey and wrote report with appropriaterecommendations for abatement of asbestos andstabilization of flaking lead paint prior to demolition.Performed indoor air testing for medical treatmentfacility. Utilized Zefon and Andersen samplers tocollect viable and non-viable samples for airbornefungal spores. Recommended appropriate abatementprocedures, wrote specifications for mold abatement,monitored abatement process, and performed finalclearance sampling.Conducted hazardous materials survey for asbestos,lead dust, and mold for large biotechnology facilitypreviously occupied by microchip manufacturer. Dueto sensitive nature of project, client requestedexpedited schedule. Directed five-person samplingteam, developed sampling protocol, and wrote reportwith recommendations for abatement of lead dust,asbestos, and mold.Conducted asbestos surveys and lead paint inspectionsfor ten commercial buildings in a city block slated fordemolition by Culver City Redevelopment Agency.Assisted the city by providing contractor bidspecifications and clarifying the scope of work forcontractors attending the pre-bid job walk.Recommended concurrent abatement of roofpenetrations due to the proximity of the buildings.Provided abatement oversight and air monitoringservices. Generated project close-out report.Subsurface Investigations and Remediation Managed soil profiling project at Pomona College for90,000 cubic yards of export soil from future parkingstructure excavation. Developed sampling plan andcoordinated field activities. Provided cost control byutilizing field screening and compositing OCP samplesto decrease analytical costs. Archived deeper samplespending shallower sample analytical results for VOCs,SVOCs, Title 22 Metals, OCPs, and TPH.Managed LAUSD soil investigation at CRES 14 forlead in soil. Directed sampling, managedsubcontractors, wrote SSI report, and developed RAWfor 57 removal areas totalling 1,852 cubic yards oflead-impacted soil.Managed LAUSD Gratts Elementary School RAWImplementation for lead in soil. Directed sampling,managed subcontractors for soil removal and samplingof 22 removal areas of lead-impacted soil. WroteRemedial Action Completion Report.Environmental Auditing Conducted annual environmental audit of tencommercial business parks for national insurancecompany. Evaluated hazardous material storage anddisposal practices. One tenant was using methylchloride to remove excess glue in a wood laminatingfacility. Recommended replacing methyl chloride witha less hazardous chemical but tenant refused. Theprocess wastewater eventually became contaminatedwith methyl chloride requiring classification as ahazardous waste with a disposal cost of $40,000.
