L&A performed a biological contamination assessment at the New Lebanon
Elementary School when fungal contamination was identified on approximately
40,000 square feet of gypsum board and Tectum roof deck after the removal
of the plaster ceiling. L&A worked with OSFC, the construction manager,
architect and district to develop remediation options to address the
contaminated building materials. The collective decision was made to
demolish and rebuild the structure. L&A developed specifications
to control airborne fungal concentrations and reduce impact on surrounding
facilities during demolition activities. L&A provided oversight and
clearance testing activities to validate the success of the remediation
activities. A Moisture Intrusion Prevention Plan was developed and incorporated
into the facility’s MPA Plan. This project was completed in three
weeks and within budget.
