Follow on Google News | Northern California Residents Cautioned to be Aware of Indoor Hazards Following Recent EarthquakeClark Seif Clark (CSC) provides indoor environmental quality testing and consulting services to identify hazards following California earthquake.
By: Clark Seif Clark (CSC) As people survey the damage, they now need to be aware of aftershocks and potential hazards they may encounter before they reenter their homes and businesses and begin to cleanup and make repairs. “Once it is deemed safe to enter a property, there are a number of things people should be aware of now that the dust has settled,” said Franco Seif, President of Clark Seif Clark. “Check the utilities for gas leaks, electrical system damage and any leaks in the sewage or water lines in the property. Sewage may contain a host of microbial pathogens including bacteria, viruses and mold as well as chemical contaminants. It also releases odors that could cause safety issues. If water pipes are damaged they may cause water damage, structural damage and mold growth. An earthquake may also release large amounts of dust and it could contain asbestos and lead in older properties. New cracks in foundations and basements may also allow for radon or chemicals in the soil and groundwater to begin infiltrating into buildings.” CSC has environmental, health and safety professionals stationed across California to provide inspecting, testing and consulting services to identify a wide array of potential indoor environmental hazards.
