MATHER VA HOSPITAL

The Department of Veterans Affairs operates many Hospitals and Clinics across the United States serving our Veterans. The Mather VA Hospital in Sacramento is in the process of renovating existing patient rooms and core spaces. Multi Phased Selective Demolition was JM ENVIRONMENTAL’s scope.

All hospitals operate 24/7, strict adherence to infection control requirements to protect patients and employees, and minimizing disruptions to other parts of the hospital is mandatory during all phases of hospital renovation projects. Our highest priority was to contain the dust and protect patients from its hazards while we performed selective demolition of floors, walls, ceilings, doors, and the selective demolition of the mechanical, plumbing, and electrical systems during several phases of the renovation project. Planning and coordination with the hospital staff as well as providing awareness training to our workers ensured compliance, and patients were not at risk.

Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan and Practices were implemented using straw waddle, silt fence, and straw covering over the final grade to meet Washoe County requirements. The entire site was also hand raked and magnetically swept for the final detail.

INDUSTRIAL FIRE DEBRIS REMOVAL AND DEMOLITION

A San Francisco Cab Company in operation since 1928 suffered the total loss of their 12,000 square foot building used for maintenance and repairs after a Three-Alarm Industrial Fire in San Francisco's Bayview District. 100 Fire Fighters responded to the blaze.

Post demolition and debris removal, team JM relocated and manipulated all the damaged taxi cabs into rows, so that identification and inventory could be completed safely and with clear access by the owner’s Insurance Adjuster.
