What Happens During a Hazardous Materials Cleanup in West Athens

1. Define the scope

The crew agrees with the owner on the area, the material and the goals. Questions about insurers, inspectors and timing are welcome at this stage.

Chemical-resistant suits, gloves, eye protection and respirators go on as the hazard requires. The work zone is marked and ventilation is managed.

Tools and surfaces are cleaned or discarded, waste is packed and the owner receives a summary of what was done.
