Environmental Abatement Industry Resources

October 2026 Newsletter

Written by Tim Jackson | Sep 29, 2026, 11:16:08 PM

Hello everyone, Tim Jackson here from JJ&S Environmental Services, welcoming October as we head into the year's final stretch.

One thing we see regularly is that the abatement itself is only part of the work. A site may need additional preparation before we can begin, or work may need to happen afterward before restoration or reconstruction can move forward.

This month, we’re highlighting these Beyond Abatement services and how JJ&S can take on more of the work surrounding an abatement project. For our partners, that can mean fewer crews to coordinate and a simpler transition from one phase of the job to the next. 

“Abatement is rarely the only thing happening on a project. There’s usually work that needs to happen before we start and after we finish. When we can help manage those pieces too, it means fewer handoffs, better coordination, and an easier transition to the next phase of the job.”

Yaniv Guelman, CEO, JJ&S Environmental Services.

A recent success case is our work at Pomona Unified School District, where our team completed a large-scale lead and asbestos abatement project. Projects like this show why early environmental planning matters. Proper containment, documentation, trained crews, and clear coordination help keep commercial projects organized, safe, and on schedule.

This demonstrates that successful abatement involves much more than the work performed on-site. It requires careful planning, clear communication, complete documentation, and a team prepared to manage every requirement from start to finish. You can see more examples of our work in our Abatement Success Stories.

We’re sharing more of what’s happening at JJ&S on social media too. Follow along on LinkedIn for project highlights, team updates, industry events, and a closer look at what’s happening in the field.

October is giving us plenty to look forward to. Our teams are staying busy in the field, we’ll be joining partners and industry friends at events throughout California, and we’re continuing to find new ways to bring people together outside of the day-to-day project work.

Speaking of getting together, keep October 22 open.

We’re planning the next JJ&S Happy Hour, and while we’re still putting the details together, we wanted our newsletter community to hear about it early. Our events have always been about creating a place where people across the industry can catch up, meet someone new, and enjoy some time together without a project or meeting agenda in front of them. Consider this your early heads-up. October 22. More details soon!

Thank you, as always, for staying connected with JJ&S and for continuing to be part of what we’re building across California.
You can reach me directly at tjackson@jjandsenviro.com or 760-235-2138.

Hope to see you there!
