About this file
This is a Lead Interpretive Report prepared by EMSL Analytical, Inc. for Stokes County, North Carolina, documenting lead content analysis of paint chip samples collected from the Stokes County Animal Shelter facility. The report presents laboratory analysis results for six paint chip samples collected on August 19, 2025, from Buildings A and B at the shelter site, with testing completed and reported on August 22, 2025. The samples were analyzed using EPA SW 846-7000B methodology to determine lead concentration by weight percentage. Sample results ranged from 0.0385% to 4.62% lead by weight, with three samples exceeding the EPA's federal guideline threshold of 0.5% weight for lead-based paint designation (Samples 1, 3, and 6). The report indicates that Samples 1 and 3 from Building A contained lead levels above the action level, while Sample 6 from Building B was slightly above the reporting limit but below the action level. All samples from Building B except Sample 6 tested below the reporting limit of 0.0064% weight.
The analysis was conducted under AIHA ELLAP and EMLAP certifications valid through June 1, 2026, ensuring compliance with recognized analytical standards for lead testing in paint chips. The report was prepared for the account of Stewart Easter at Stokes County with Project ID 02-MISC-ACCT-LEAD and includes detailed sample descriptions, collection dates, laboratory reference numbers, and weight measurements for each specimen. The findings are relevant to the shelter renovation project specifications, which include comprehensive facility updates and potential lead abatement requirements as part of the building's renovation scope.
