DESIGNATED SUBSTANCE SURVEY (DSS REPORTS)
In accordance with Ontario Regulation 490/09, a Designated Substance Survey (DSS) report is legally required before any construction, demolition or restoration project can take place in Ontario. (Link to regulation)
The Ontario Occupational Health and Safety Act states that designated substances such as asbestos, lead, mercury and other potentially hazardous building materials must be identified prior to any work being done that may disturb these materials and result in unnecessary exposure of workers and building occupants.
Citywide Environmental Services provides a detailed Designated Substance Survey (DSS report) which can be provided to home and building owners, contractors, property managers, contractors and/or sub-contractors. As well as being compliant with the law, this information is essential in informing potential workers of the conditions and risk levels so that necessary precautions may be taken.
