CCI LOCATIONS

ASBESTOS ABATEMENTCCI has been a forerunner in the field of asbestos abatement for more than 22 years.

Our determination to ensure that all clients receive the proper handling of their abatement project has long been a mainstay for the success of CCI. Through the use of certified, experienced managers and supervisors, CCI is able to develop a customized abatement plan and implement the project with minimal interference to the client’s day-to-day operations.

CCI has completed thousands of abatement projects, including hundreds in occupied office buildings, universities, hospitals, hotels, retail/commercial, and industrial facilities.

The experience and dedication of our abatement supervisors and technicians are among the highest in the industry.

Pulp and Paper Processing Facility; Valdosta, GACCI’s work at this site included the complete abatement of two five-story recirculation boilers and cascades. An entire building was contained, steel casing was cut, and multiple types of ACM were removed to allow demolition of the entire structure. Innovative approaches to containment, work scheduling, removal techniques, and waste handling were required to execute this job safely.

Grand Palace Hotel, New Orleans, LAPictured on the right, CCI is removing non-regulated asbestos from the 17th floor of the old Grand Palace hotel, which is in the process of demolition. In order to access the asbestos, which was located between the floors around the outside walls of the hotel, mast climbers were built for easier and safer access to the building. Three heavily traveled streets and the interstate are located in very close proximity to the building.

Duke Energy Corporation, Wachovia Center, Charlotte, NCDemolition of approximately 24,000SF of floor space. Demolition of all interior walls (approximately 37,800SF drywall), 23,000SF ceiling tile, and 10,000SF carpet. Because of asbestos containing fireproofing above the ceiling, all work was performed within a negative pressure enclosure. Additional removal and disposal of approximately 66,300SF of fireproofing, 300SF of VAT & mastic, 400SF of drywall w/ joint compound, 1,850SF of CMU wall, 1,700LF of HVAC duct and VAV boxes, all duct and air handling equipment from the Air Handling Room, ten (10) fire doors and 50LF of thermal systems insulation from pipe.

Central Chemical; Hagerstown, MDCCI was contracted to remove dust and debris from 17 structures at the Central Chemical Superfund Site in Hagerstown, MD followed by demolition of the buildings. The site was used primarily as a pesticide formulation (DDT) facility. CCI performed an asbestos survey and pre-characterized the wastes prior to commencing site operations. CCI started by removing the asbestos and gross removal of the contaminated dust. CCI also configured a super-vac equipped with a High Efficiency Particulate Filter (HEPA) exhaust and a plenum system to equip the technicians with a dust removal system.

CCI was commented by the Owner and Contractor for the handling of the project. Meridian Naval Base, Meridian, MSCCI’s work at this site included the excavation and loading of 2200 CY of soil contaminated asbestos debris. CCI brought in equipment to excavate, including water trucks to excavate and load the contamination with wet methods.

Hurricane Ike, Orange, TXCCI was contracted to do emergency abatement at multiple facilities after Hurricane Ike did damages to oil facilities across the state, which included mobilization off 150+ employees.

LEAD ABATEMENTThroughout the company’s years of experience, CCI has tailored its services to meet the increasing regulations and suit the specific needs of each client.

Because of the prevalence of lead contamination in such sensitive areas as schools, hospitals, universities, industrial facilities and multi-family housing, CCI realizes the strong need for qualified, educated, and concerned personnel.

CCI utilizes only state-of-the-art methods of mechanical and chemical stripping, abrasive and non-abrasive, scraping, blasting/cleaning, and component removal.

Utility Project; Lexington, SCCCI personnel cleaned loose flaking black mastic with lead-containing paint off of a 20-foot diameter pipe.

Chemical Company; Mt. Holly, NCThis project involved the removal of lead-based paint from an outside canopy and support columns utilizing needle guns equipped with an explosive-proof, HEPA-filtered vacuum collection system. This was due to the close proximity to volatile storage tanks containing ethylene oxide. Non-sparking needles were used in the removal of the lead-based paint.

Paper Mill; Plymouth, NCThis project involved the removal of lead-based paint from structural steel components utilized in building a new sawmill. The paint was removed utilizing vacuum-attached needle guns and rotopeen hammers.

Paper Mill; Riegelwood, NCThis project involved the removal of lead-based paint from various towers and vessels to facilitate the demolition of processing equipment throughout the plant. The paint was removed utilizing vacuum-attached needle guns and rotopeen hammers. Once TCLP samples were analyzed, the material was disposed of properly as hazardous waste.

MOLD ABATEMENTSTRUCTURAL DRYING

Contaminant Control, Inc. has been performing mold abatement since mold issues have become a national concern. CCI can only deliver this level of performance through the use of certified, experienced managers and supervisors, dedicated to CCI’s corporate performance philosophy.

As a part of every mold removal is the cause of the mold – water. CCI embraces the philosophy that to remove all mold generation; the moisture must be eliminated at the source.

CCI owns drying equipment capable of eliminating moisture from any structure. The right use of desiccant/refrigerant dehumidifiers and air movers will remove moisture from any facility.

Hurricane Katrina Evacuee Center; Anniston, ALAs a subcontractor to Shaw E&I, CCI responded under an emergency response scenario to aid in the build-out of former military dormitories to house 2,000 Hurricane Katrina evacuees. CCI mobilized management personnel within 13 hours of the initial request for response and within 48 hours mobilized 240 removal technicians to perform the mold removal of more than 600,000 square feet of living space. In addition to the surface area mold removal, CCI managed the removal of mold and the cleaning of the HVAC systems throughout the facilities. The original three-week schedule was compressed to one week. CCI maintained the schedule and completed the all tasks ahead of schedule and budget.

Hurricane Ike, Galveston, TXCCI was contracted to work at multiple facilities in Galveston, TX

Building 487 Mold Remediation, Pope AFB, NCBuilding 487 is a hotel utilized to house Air Force personnel during assignments at Pope AFB. A water pipe burst on a weekend and was not discovered until early the next Monday morning. The Air Force was slow in responding to the incident and an extensive amount of microbial growth resulted. CCI was hired to complete the mold remediation of this facility and to prepare the facility for renovations. This project included the removal, cleaning, and storage of the salvageable hotel furniture.

Office Area Structural Drying; Atlanta, GACCI was called to respond to a sprinkler pipe freeze that caused water damage to an 11,000-square foot office area. Upon inspection there was visible mold and water, along with a large amount of moisture trapped behind base boards and wall coverings. CCI personnel dried the space using six Phoenix 200 refrigerant dehumidifiers and 60 air movers to reduce the relative humidity of the space. The extremely high moisture trapped in the drywall and wall coverings compounded the difficulty of drying the space. Therefore, CCI personnel removed the lower third of the wall coverings before the commencement of drying. The wall coverings were tacked to allow reinstallation of the coverings. The project was completed on time and within schedule.

Sam Houston Electric Cooperative (SHECO) Transformer Recovery/RemediationCCI was contracted to assist SHECO in the recovery and remediation of PCB contaminated transformers and non-PCB contaminated transformers. During Hurricane IKE SHECO’s power grid received significant damage. SHECO still had a low percent of its pole-mounted transformers that were suspect PCB containing. CCI set up a staging and collection area for the assessment and sampling of transformers as they were picked up by CCI. The first priority was to comb the entire system for transformers damaged and left on sites for pickup. The transformers were GPS located, assessed for type and contamination, spills were located and marked, pictures of the transformer and the spill were taken, and then the transformers packaged and load on a transport vehicle. The transformers were then taken to the collection area and given a unique number. If the transformer was suspect it was sampled for confirmation. Once the samples were returned the transformers were tagged and segregated for disposal. The soil was remediated in accordance with the sample results and/or assessments of the transformers. If the transformer contained PCBs the excavation had confirmation samples taken prior to backfilling. The soil was segregated in containers for disposal. CCI provided all FEMA Recovery documentation for SHECO.
