Former Hospital Demolition With Asbestos-Impacted Debris
Pomeroy, Ohio | Building Demolition | Asbestos-Impacted C&D Debris | Foundation Removal | Site Stabilization
Environmental Remediation Contractor (ERC) demolished a former hospital in Pomeroy, Ohio, for a county government client.
The building contained asbestos-impacted materials, so the entire structure had to be handled as asbestos-impacted construction and demolition (C&D) debris.
ERC took the building down using controlled demolition, disposed of all debris at an approved facility, removed the foundations to grade, and stabilized the site.

How Do You Demolish a Building With Asbestos-Impacted Materials?
When asbestos-impacted materials are present, the whole structure may be treated as asbestos-impacted debris. ERC used controlled demolition techniques, and all impacted materials were containerized, loaded, and hauled to an approved disposal facility.
How Was the Public Kept Safe?
ERC started with fencing and erosion control to protect the surrounding area. Utilities were disconnected, terminated, and capped before demolition began, and trucking was coordinated around site access and schedule constraints.
Were the Foundations Removed?
Yes. After the main structure came down, a change order added demolition of foundation walls and footers to surrounding grade. The site was then backfilled, graded, and stabilized.
Who Did ERC Coordinate With?
ERC worked closely with the local village, regulatory officials, and the project consultant to stay in line with permitting and safety requirements throughout.
Why Was This Project Complex?
ERC had to manage several conditions at once:
- Asbestos-impacted building materials
- Controlled demolition of a large structure
- Utility termination and capping
- Foundation and footer removal
- Trucking around access constraints
- Local permitting and coordination
