Designated Substance Survey for Aging Buildings

Many hospitals and schools in Ontario are facing the challenges posed by aging infrastructure, some of which were constructed before the 1990s. These buildings may contain hazardous materials within their construction materials, which can pose risks to occupants as these materials reach the end of their lifespan. Conducting a designated substance survey before replacing any materials is a prudent approach. This survey aims to identify hazardous materials, assess their condition, and provide guidance on safe replacement or management strategies. By understanding the presence and condition of these materials, schools and hospitals can take informed actions to improve the health and safety of everyone within the premises.
