LOCATION(S): MSP Northville Forensic Laboratory

SAMPLING DATE(S): 3/24/25

CODE OR STANDARD: MIOSHA Part 309-Cadmium, Part 603-Lead, Part 604-Chromium Exposure in Construction MTC PROCEDURE: Following ASTM E1729-05 EQUIPMENT: Heat Gun, Metal Scraper, Tape, Paper, Collection Bag

Results Assessments:

The enclosed lab report for the fifteen [15] paint sample(s) collected from the project site shows concentrations of lead, cadmium and chromium. Concentrations below the laboratory detection limit is indicated by the “<” symbol preceding the concentration on the attached lab reports. Due to limitations of the analytical method, the laboratory could not determine the concentration below the laboratory detection value. Detection limits are part of analytical procedures for any method. Concentrations above the detection limit are reported as determined. Sample locations are provided on the lab report.

Remediation or abatement of painted surfaces is not a requirement under the Construction Standard, nor under any standard. The concentration of lead, cadmium or chromium does not trigger a requirement to remove painted surfaces prior to construction. According to OSHA, regarding the Lead in Construction, 29 CFR 1926.62 standard and in interpretation letters dated March 1, 1999 and September 10, 2008, employers must comply with assessment measures and any applicable protections of that standard for all tasks governed by the standard involving paints having any level of lead. OSHA further indicates that exposures above the PEL can occur when disturbing paint at “extremely low concentrations”. It is expected that this level of interpretation applies to cadmium and chromium levels for their respective standards.

Recommendations:

To comply with the OSHA and MIOSHA Construction Safety and Health standards governing worker exposure to lead, MTC recommends that each employer impacting painted surfaces review the regulatory standards to determine if work tasks are likely to cause worker exposure above the PEL either by using objective data or prior exposure assessments. Where no objective data or assessment data is available, conduct an exposure assessment in accordance with the standards. MTC is available to assist in meeting these requirements.
