Working with JSA
Project oversight & clearance
Air monitoring, contractor observation, documentation review, ClearanceA post-work evaluation against the criteria that apply to the project. It may include visual examination and sampling; it is different from the original material inspection. testing, and organized closeout support.
Start with your questions.
Environmental work does not end when demolition or cleanup stops. Independent oversight and clearance can document how the work was performed and whether the area is ready for the next phase.
Your agreed ScopeThe work included in the assignment: areas, materials, methods, reporting, and any exclusions. will describe the areas we assess, the work included, and any limits on access or testing.
Understand the context
What this service looks at
Incomplete containment, cleaning, or documentation can leave owners and project teams uncertain about remaining conditions. The monitoring and clearance approach should be selected before work begins so expectations are clear.

Prepare for a useful conversation
Before your visit
Share the property address, how the building is used, the work being planned, and the areas of concern. Include previous reports, photographs, drawings, access restrictions, and deadlines when available.
Agree on the scope
Confirm which areas and materials are included, whether sampling or follow-up visits are planned, and who needs the report. A limited assessment describes the areas evaluated; it does not automatically cover every part of a property.
Use the complete report
Read conclusions alongside the scope, laboratory or instrument results, photographs, and limitations. If the planned work changes or additional materials are discovered, ask whether further assessment is needed.
