Supporting Child Care and School Settings – TTI’s Collaborative Solutions for Safe Environments

Child day care centers in New Jersey must complete a Preliminary Assessment (PA) in accordance with N.J.A.C. 7:26E and applicable guidelines to obtain full licensure from the Department of Children and Families (DCF). Led by a Licensed Site Remediation Professional (LSRP), this assessment involves a comprehensive site inspection and examination of historical records to identify any potential environmental risks at the proposed childcare center.

Since 2007, TTI has been pivotal in helping childcare centers obtain licenses and renewals. We provide a comprehensive understanding of environmental requirements, prioritizing safe and healthy environments for students. Our divisions work collaboratively to offer solutions for environmental and contracting issues in child care and school settings, ensuring the well-being of staff and children. With clear communication and collaborative efforts, we help our clients stay focused on their core mission of providing healthy growth environments.

  • Our experienced Licensed Site Remediation Professionals (LSRPs) and project managers:
  • Conduct thorough site visits, prepare detailed Preliminary Assessment Reports, and collaborate closely with Indoor Environmental Health Assessment (IEHA) Consultants to ensure a seamless environmental process. TTI is certified and conducts all aspects of the IEHA.
  • Evaluate and assess if any environmental challenges that may have impact on the building which houses the childcare center.
  • Perform asbestos, lead based paint inspection/risk assessments, radon, lead and copper drinking water testing and other tests and surveys that may be required in order to obtain certification.
  • Additional remediation measures, including playground area sampling, may be implemented if necessary to ensure the absence of contamination that could pose a threat to the children’s well-being.
  • We also offer assistance to clients in completing the NJDEP grant application, which allows for reimbursement of up to $1,500 for the PA expenses, if eligible.
  • Upon the LSRP’s confirmation that no further remediation is required, a Response Action Outcome (RAO) will be issued, signifying compliance with regulations.
