Environmental Management of Real Estate Investment Firm Portfolio

TRC provides water loss and microbial (mold) assessment services, indoor air quality (IAQ) assessment services, industrial hygiene (IH) services, asbestos-containing materials (ACM) consulting services, and lead-based paint (LBP) consulting services at a number of Beacon Capital commercial property locations throughout the United States and Europe.

Water Loss and Microbial Assessment Services

TRC’s water loss and microbial assessment services for Beacon Capital employ the use of real-time instruments and various methods of microbial sampling to help detect moisture intrusion issues and evaluate indoor environments for conditions conducive to mold growth.  Based on the data collected and the field inspections conducted by TRC’s experienced industrial hygienists/field personnel and Certified Industrial Hygienists, recommendations and specifications are developed to remediate microbial contamination, and relegate moisture intrusion sources/conditions.

TRC provides IAQ assessments consisting of measuring carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), relative humidity (RH) and temperature using direct-read instruments and comparing the findings to applicable standards published by industry associations. In addition, TRC conducts sampling and laboratory analysis for other IAQ constituents such as fibers in the air, metals, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other site-specific contaminants of concern. Recommendations and specifications are developed to mitigate IAQ issues identified based on field inspection, data collection and evaluation conducted by TRC’s experienced industrial hygienists/field personnel and Certified Industrial Hygienists.

Industrial Hygiene Services

TRC’s IH investigations typically focus on site-specific hazards and potential dangers encountered in various working environments. Our experienced industrial hygienists/field personnel and CIHs conduct research into possible harmful conditions, utilize direct-read instruments and perform sampling and laboratory analysis for analytes of concern to provide recommendations for improving health and safety conditions.  With the data collected, TRC evaluates current health and safety procedures utilized within properties to prevent accidents and occupational exposures and provides recommendations for improvement of those procedures to mitigate health and safety risks in the workplace.
