A thorough examination of a dwelling unit or a property to identify lead-based paint hazards
that are present. This will be accomplished in the following ways:
- Conduct
testing of dust, soil, and deteriorated paint and includes a visual inspection
for deteriorated paint and other hazardous conditions. Take dust
samples from floors, interior windowsills and window troughs.
Conduct visual assessment of the unit and worksite to identify dust, debris, and deteriorated paint.
Samples will be taken, the number based on the type and amount of rehabilitation to be performed.
Submit samples to an NLLAP lab for analyses and results will be available within 7 working days.
A risk assessment includes an investigation of the age and history of the housing and occupancy by children under age six.
Upon completion of the risk assessment the proper documents required for the chain of custody of the sample will be completed and sent with the samples to the lab for testing.
A written report that explains the results and identifies acceptable abatement and interim control strategies based on specific conditions and the owner's capabilities for the controlling identified lead-based paint hazards will be prepared and submitted to the agency requesting the inspection
