Vancouver Barracks, Building 636, Hazardous
Materials Abatement and Demolition, Fort Vancouver

Lead abatement workers MCS removed asbestos-containing materials and lead-based paint from the Red Cross Building (Building 636) at the fort. The building was restored as part of the historic preservationt. MCS paid special attention to preserving the essential features of the building while removing unsafe or nonhistoric elements. By characterizing the soil surrounding the building, MCS was able to save the US Army Corps of Engineers and the City of Vancouver over $5,000 by avoiding disposal of the soil as hazardous waste. MCS prepared the exterior of the building to protect it against the weather, supporting future restoration during the autumn and winter. In fullfillment of project requirements, MCS

carefully abated asbestos and lead-based paint while maintaining historic features; and

used specialized stripping products to expedite the project and reduce lead-waste production.
