A FACS Case Study
Jeffco Painting and Coating, Inc., an industrial painting contractor, faced the challenge of providing mandated industrial hygiene oversight and environmental monitoring for hazardous coating removal on the massive California Aqueduct system. This work, required by the California Department of Water Resources, was beyond their core expertise and had to be completed under rigid time constraints and stringent safety regulations, necessitating a third-party expert. They engaged the vendor FACS for its exposure assessment monitoring and industrial hygiene oversight services.
FACS provided onsite monitoring from start to finish, ensuring worker safety and regulatory compliance. The solution involved FACS specialists assisting with time-sensitive course corrections and crafting quick remedies for any issues that arose, which helped expedite the work and keep the project on schedule. The involvement of FACS assured the state governing agency of the contractor's compliance, provided defensible proof that obligations were met, and allowed the project area to be returned to service quickly.
