Environmental Products And Services
Fungi Identification/Counts And Air Quality Monitoring.
The Environmental Sciences Centre assists with consultation and workplace surveys to identify problem areas, laboratory analysis to identify specific fungi and relative abundance and recommend action plans. In-camera robotic equipment is available to inspect the inside of building ventilation ducting to identify problem areas and to ensure the effectiveness of remedial procedures.
The counts and identification of fungi in samples are carried out in the laboratory facility which is accredited by the American Industrial Hygiene Association.
Results of the monitoring program includes references to the relevant exposure guidelines for the materials found and makes suggestions for possible remedial actions to reduce worker exposure.
Identify The Type And Quantity Of Asbestos.
The Environmental Sciences Centre (ESC) assists with consultation workplace surveys to identify problem areas, laboratory analysis to identify the specific type and quantity of asbestos present and recommend action plans. Example locations include schools, older homes, office buildings, industrial worksites and recreational buildings. Asbestos sources during abatement procedures include insulation, floor and ceiling tile, pipe wrap, boiler lagging, asbestos cement, mortar and swab or wipe samples.
ESC also assists with monitoring surveys to determine the presence of airborne fibres before, during and after asbestos abatement projects. The analysis will determine fibres/mm2 for samples collected. Results are supported by quality control samples that are part of each asbestos analysis. The identification and counts are carried out in a laboratory accredited by the AIHA since 1983.
The ESC methods and analysis meet with the Manitoba Health Hazard Regulation 53/88 and the guidelines prepared by Manitoba Department of Labour - Guideline for Working with Asbestos and Asbestos Operation and Maintenance Program.
Water Quality Analytical Support.
The Environmental Sciences Center, ESC, provides analyses of a comprehensive list of analytes in surface and ground water which meets the Canadian Drinking Water Guidelines. The analytical support includes assistance in pre-planning surveys, supply of appropriate sample bottles and preservatives and flagging of results which are above the guidelines. Arrangements can be made for field sample collection.
Analysis includes pesticides/herbicides, hydrocarbon contamination packages (underground storage tank), PCB's trace metals, hydride metals, major ions, nitrogen and phosphorous compounds and microbiological analysis.
Wastewater effluent monitoring includes sample collection, analysis and reporting. Analysis meets municipal sanitary sewer water requirements and local discharge licenses. Analysis examples include BOD, COD, oil and grease, solids, microbiological, nitrogen cycle, trace metals, major ions, cyanide, BTEX, hydrocarbons and trihalomethanes.
