Environmentally Sound Demolition
Interior gut and structural demolition with proper hazardous material removal and regulatory coordination. Full waste management services.
Overview
Environmentally sound demolition integrates hazardous material abatement with structural demolition, ensuring all regulated materials are properly removed before building teardown begins. This approach protects workers, the public, and the environment while maintaining compliance with all applicable regulations.
Oregon DEQ and Washington Department of Ecology require surveys and removal of hazardous materials before demolition. Asbestos, lead, PCBs, and other regulated materials must be identified and properly removed before any demolition work begins. Failure to comply can result in significant fines, project delays, and legal liability.
