Mooring Recovery Services - Environmental Services As professionals in the areas of restoration and construction, Mooring Recovery has encountered many situations that pose environmental risks and necessitate specialized protocols to protect human health. To address and offer solutions for these risks, MRS maintains Texas State licensing in asbestos, lead and mold abatement through our Environmental Services division for both residential and commercial properties. Environmental Concerns - The Risks ASBESTOS - Between the 1950’s and 1980’s, asbestos was used in substantial amounts of building projects, products, and materials. Most buildings constructed or renovated within this time period are extremely likely to include asbestos containing materials. In general, exposure may occur whenever the asbestos-containing material is disturbed in some way to release particles and fibers into the air such as renovations, demolition and damage. MOLD - Molds are various fungi that often cause disintegration of organic matter. No one knows how many species of fungi exist but estimates may range in the hundreds of thousands. Molds grow best in warm, damp, and humid conditions, and spread and reproduce by making spores. However, mold spores can also survive harsh environmental conditions, such as dry conditions, that do not support normal mold growth. All molds have the potential to cause health effects. LEAD - The most common exposure to lead is through paint. Lead was used in paint because it preserved the paint making it more weather resistant, was used as pigment making the colors more vibrant, resisted mold and mildew growth, and helped prevent corrosion of metal surfaces. As lead paint deteriorates, peels, chips, or is removed, lead chips and dust can migrate to surfaces and objects that people touch. The older the structure the more likely it is to have high concentrations of lead based paint.
