New York Why this work matters

Lead doesn't just poison bodies. It shapes minds.

For decades, a handful of researchers chased a quiet question: what does childhood lead exposure do to the mind, long after the blood test comes back clean? The answer is now impossible to ignore — and it's the reason we do this work. Lead is a neurotoxin that attacks the developing brain. It lowers IQ, drives attention and behavior problems, and follows children into adulthood as depression, anxiety, and more. There is no safe level.

Every New York child is blood-lead tested at ages 1 and 2 — and every result is reported to the state registry, by law.
NY Public Health Law §1370-e

New York drew the clearest line in the country.

New York runs one of the most rigorous childhood-lead surveillance systems anywhere: mandatory screening, mandatory lab reporting, and a statewide registry built so a poisoned child doesn't slip through unseen. The registry is the detection. The science is the stakes. Removing the lead is the cure — and that's our part.

That's why we're expanding across New York. Detection without remediation only documents the harm. We finish what the registry starts — find the source, contain it, remove it, and clear the home — so a child's brain has the chance to develop the way it should.

We can't undo what lead already took. But we can make sure the next child grows up in a home that's clean.

Our Top Three: Coast Guard · Navy · Air Force

These are the installations AAA Abatement LC is built to support — surface prep, coatings removal, and lead & asbestos scopes — as a subcontractor under our primary NAICS 562910 (Remediation Services). Federal vessel and facility work is performed under OSHA 1926.62 / 1915.1025, so out-of-state installations need no state abatement cert. Built to support these scopes — with verifiable federal vessel past performance on the U.S. Coast Guard CLEAT task order and SSPC-SP11 blasting capability through our Sponge-Jet teaming partnership.

USCG SLEDGE pursuit (Curtis Bay, Baltimore MD, FY26): competed as a prime-team subcontractor on the SSPC-SP11 lead & coatings removal requirement (engine room & forward rake) — full production and execution plan developed with Sponge-Jet teaming. The vessel surface-prep playbook is built and ready.

Coast Guard / Navy / Air Force Installation

Licensing & authority: State abatement / contractor licenses held in Maine, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Vermont, New York, and Rhode Island. Surface-prep, coatings-removal, and lead work on federal vessels and facilities is performed under OSHA 29 CFR 1926.62 and 1915.1025 — the standards that govern federal scopes throughout the region, with no state abatement cert required. Proximity to an installation reflects our built-to-support operating range — our verifiable federal vessel past performance is the U.S. Coast Guard CLEAT task order. Blast equipment is provided through our Sponge-Jet teaming partnership.

…and the same crews have completed 200+ projects across Western Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New Hampshire communities — residential and commercial lead abatement, inspections, and healthy-homes work.

Core Capability — Surface Prep & Blasting
Low-Dust Sponge-Media Surface Preparation — SSPC-SP11
This is what we do. Through our teaming partnership with Sponge-Jet (Portsmouth, NH) — the manufacturer of engineered sponge abrasive media — AAA Abatement LC delivers low-dust SSPC-SP11 surface preparation on vessels, machinery spaces, and structural steel. And because the crew is lead & asbestos certified, when there's lead in the old coating the blast and the abatement happen in one mobilization — one crew, one contract.
Teaming Partner
Sponge-Jet, Inc.
The engineered sponge-media manufacturer (Portsmouth, NH). AAA Abatement LC teams with Sponge-Jet to deliver the low-dust SSPC-SP11 blasting capability — the equipment and media are provided through this partnership.
Teaming Partner: Sponge-Jet →

Built for Shipboard & Confined Spaces

Sponge media is engineered for marine and confined-space work. The manufacturer reports it suppresses up to 99% of dust compared to conventional abrasive blasting — a decisive advantage in cutter machinery spaces, where dust control is the entire problem. Less dust means a lighter containment burden and less disruption to adjacent shipboard work.

Production Beyond Hand Tools

Sponge-media blasting achieves an SSPC-SP11 bare-metal profile at multiples of hand-tool production rates — the needle-gun and sander methods most abatement subcontractors are limited to on shipboard lead. Faster surface prep means shorter availability windows and tighter schedules held.

Pb

Lead-Safe Under OSHA 1915.1025 / 1926.62

Surface preparation run as lead work, not just blasting: certified abatement crew, exposure monitoring, negative air, decon, and full waste manifesting. One subcontractor covers both the surface prep and the lead compliance.

Proven on Federal Vessels

Completed shipboard lead abatement on the U.S. Coast Guard CLEAT task order as a subcontractor under the USCG SFLC Lead/Asbestos MATOC — a $24.9M multi-award IDIQ program. Verifiable federal vessel past performance — not a prospect.
