Professional protocols include comprehensive safety and containment requirements that protect workers, occupants, and property owners from exposure risks and regulatory violations. Federal, state, and local regulatory requirements are built into protocols to ensure all compliance obligations are met while avoiding unnecessary requirements that increase costs. Proper containment procedures prevent contamination spread during remediation activities, protecting adjacent areas and occupants. Worker safety protocols follow OSHA requirements and industry best practices to prevent accidents and health claims. Documentation requirements provide legal protection by demonstrating that remediation followed established scientific and regulatory standards. This comprehensive approach prevents compliance issues that create long-term legal exposure.
