The MACK Group, LLC, a premier asbestos abatement and flooring removal contractor, recently completed a commercial asbestos abatement project that consisted of the removal of asbestos floor tile, associated mastic and roofing materials. The project needed to be completed on a very fast schedule in order to facilitate the client’s need to renovate the facility and get it operational as quick as possible.
Prior to asbestos abatement activities, a 10 day notification was submitted which is a written notification of intention to perform asbestos abatement in accordance with 40 CFR 61.145 to 61.155 and N.J.A.C. 7:26-2.12(d) and (e). All utilities were also disconnected. The project conformed to all OSHA and EPA regulations pertaining to ACM and only NJ licensed asbestos abatement workers performed the asbestos removal work.
The MACK Group, LLC (MACK) was contracted to remove and abate asbestos containing floor tile and mastic that was adhered to a concrete floor. The estimated quantity of asbestos containing floor tile and mastic that needed to be abated and removed was 22,000 square feet.
To remove the asbestos floor tile and mastic, MACK used a combination of proprietary flooring removal machines that they own in their fleet of abatement equipment. The flooring removal machines have zero emissions and fumes allowing for use in restricted ventilation areas. These machines allowed MACK to easily remove the floor tile and mastic down to the original concrete floor surface without damaging the existing concrete.
In addition, MACK also performed the asbestos abatement of 22,000 square feet of roofing materials. The roofing material was abated under wet methods and the removed materials were placed into a sealed container.
The transportation of the removed asbestos floor tile and mastic was in accordance with N.J.A.C. 7:26-3.5(d) and by registered New Jersey solid waste vehicles. ACM was then properly disposed at an EPA licensed landfill.
Finally, all required OSHA air monitoring, notifications, and all required final air testing was conducted.
In order to facilitate the client’s need for a fast turnaround, the MACK employed double shifts which allowed the project to be completed in three (3) weeks. The project was completed without incident or injury.
