To ensure that both construction workers and property owners are not exposed to dangerous levels of contaminants, our team at Mana Excavation Inc. provides services to ensure that hazardous materials are properly disposed of.
How We Keep Sites Safe
To avoid health and safety concerns on the site of a demolition project, hazardous materials that constitute as a physical hazard must be safely removed and disposed of.
Hazardous materials found in demolition sites include:
- Asbestos
- Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)
- Mould
- Mercury
- Lead
Our team at Mana Excavation Inc. can keep all demolition sites clean as we specialize in managing these types of hazardous materials. Our team will first create an asbestos abatement and hazardous material plan to effectively remove hazardous materials we come in contact with. By having our trained professionals on-site, we can perform a risk assessment and bring the correct equipment to safely remove hazardous materials.
Risks of Improper Hazardous Material Disposal
Without the safe disposal of hazardous materials, risks to workers, the environment, and the community, will significantly increase. If a client would like to keep their demolition project safe at all times, it’s best to invest in a company that can effectively perform correct hazardous waste removal procedures. Additional risks include:
- Health Risks. When there is contact with hazardous materials, the immediate response of the body may include difficulty breathing, nausea, eye or skin irritation, etc. Long-term effects can include birth defects, genetic mutations, cancer, etc.
- Environmental Risks. When hazardous materials are improperly disposed of, they can cause severe damage to the neighbouring environment. This includes the destruction of nearby ecosystems, destruction of natural habitats, soil degradation, water pollution, etc. Contamination of water, air, and soil can be a result of improper care.
- Legal Risks. If a company does not comply with the local regulations for hazardous material disposal, it can lead to legal liabilities or legal consequences like penalties or fines. In addition, a company’s reputation can be damaged by hiring a company with improper care of hazardous materials.
Managing Asbestos on Construction Projects
Did you know that at one time in the 1990s, asbestos was a commonly used construction material? Asbestos is known as a substance that can make one very sick just by breathing it in. It can also cause health issues such as mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis.
The risks for construction workers are extremely high when working on demolition sites. For this reason, a professional team should be hired to be able to identify and remove such materials from a site, before it spreads further harm.
