About this file
The Lead_Dust_Testing_Results.xlsx is a testing document from the City of Pittsburgh's Department of Public Works documenting lead contamination levels at multiple municipal recreational facilities and buildings. The spreadsheet reveals extensive lead contamination exceeding regulatory limits at several locations, including Pioneer Avenue Pool Building, Ormsby Rec Center, West Penn Rec Center, Herschel Field Building, Warrington Rec Center, Riverview Activities Building, and Mage Rec Center. Specifically, lead levels on window sills and floors significantly surpass the maximum allowable thresholds of 100 mg/ft2 for window sills and 10 mg/ft2 for floors.
The test results indicate a critical need for lead abatement across multiple city facilities, as demonstrated by the comprehensive testing data. Most locations failed lead contamination standards, with some window sill measurements reaching extreme levels, such as 1840 mg/ft2 and 5810 mg/ft2, far exceeding safe limits. The findings suggest an urgent requirement for the City of Pittsburgh to implement extensive lead remediation efforts across its public infrastructure, potentially triggering the related state and local contract opportunity for lead abatement services. Contact information for Erica McGrath, Center Director at the Mage Rec Center, is included, potentially serving as a point of reference for further investigation or remediation planning.
