Interim Environmental Management™

A temporary strategy, disclosed as exactly that.

Sometimes the correct work cannot begin immediately. Funding is pending, a claim is under review, a facility cannot be taken offline until a break, or another trade has to go first. Interim Environmental Management™ is a documented set of temporary measures for that gap — and it is never presented as a finished result.

Two Black Home Remedies technicians in white Tyvek suits, black caps, black gloves, clear eye protection and respirators working in a finished basement with drywall in place — one standing and emitting a thick white fog from a fogging machine toward the center of the room while the second crouches and spray-treats a dark patch of microbial growth on the drywall with a handheld pump sprayer; a blue Home Remedies HEPA negative-air machine stands at the left beside two green Home Remedies air movers on protected floor sheeting, with a clear plastic-and-blue-tape containment partition behind them

What it can include

  • Temporary containment or isolation of an affected area
  • Air filtration and environmental controls while the area is in use or idle
  • Interim moisture control such as temporary dehumidification
  • Surface cleaning of accessible areas
  • Scheduled monitoring with documented readings and photos
  • A written record of conditions to support the eventual full scope

What it is not

Interim Environmental Management™ is a temporary management strategy. It is not a substitute for correcting moisture sources, and it is not a substitute for full remediation when full remediation is warranted. Every interim engagement is delivered with a written statement of the permanent work that remains outstanding.

Where it is commonly used

Churches, schools, daycares, assisted-living facilities, multifamily buildings and commercial properties that must remain in operation while permanent work is planned, funded or scheduled.
