E&E routinely collects samples of caulking compounds to determine if the material contains >50 PPM of PCB's. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates PCB caulk as an unauthorized use product if it contains >50 PPM of PCB. It's important to determine if PCB remediation will be required during a renovation project during the planning and design phase of the project to avoid costly and timely change orders. 

E&E conducts comprehensive inventories throughout a facility identifying Universal Waste products such as; fluorescent light bulbs, batteries, mercury containing thermostats and PCB containing light ballasts. Its important that these items be properly containerized, labeled and disposed of correctly.
