About this file

This is a Lead-Based Paint Inspection Report prepared by PbO3 Environmental Monitoring, LLC for the City of Ocala, Florida Community Development Services Department for the residential property located at 1213 NW 9th Street, Ocala, Florida. The inspection was conducted on December 10, 2025, by certified Lead Risk Assessor Julian Spadt using X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) testing methodology on 129 samples across the property's interior rooms, exterior components, and porch areas. The inspection tested painted surfaces including walls, doors, windows, casings, baseboards, trim, ceilings, and exterior elements such as siding, fascia, soffits, and rafters. The report documents the testing protocol, results, and recommendations in accordance with HUD Guidelines for the Evaluation and Control of Lead-Based Paint Hazards in Housing and Title X of the 1992 Housing and Community Development Act.

The inspection results indicate that lead-based paint (defined as equal to or greater than 1.0 mg/cm² in paint) was not found in any of the 129 sample locations tested. All XRF readings returned negative results, ranging from 0.03 to 0.77 mg/cm², falling below the federal action level of 1.0 mg/cm². The report concludes that the dwelling qualifies for exemption under 24 CFR Part 35 and 40 CFR Part 745 for target housing free of lead-based paint. However, the report notes that some painted surfaces may contain lead levels below 1.0 mg/cm² that could create hazards if disturbed through abrasion, scraping, or sanding during renovation activities. The report recommends notifying the owner of results, maintaining the report for the life of the dwelling, providing disclosure copies to future tenants and purchasers as required by federal law, and distributing EPA-approved educational materials regarding lead-based paint hazards. No further action is required based on the inspection findings.

1. SUMMARY of FINDINGS

According to your instructions PbO3 Environmental Monitoring, LLC. of 6548 SW 131st Place Ocala, Florida has completed a LEAD-BASED PAINT INSPECTION of the subject property. The inspection was conducted on December 10, 2025. The Inspection was performed by Julian Spadt, Lead Risk Assessor(s) (certifications on file). This lead-based paint inspection did not include such items as water sampling, soils, mini blinds, lead dust analysis, furniture, bathroom and/or floor tile-except as noted in this report. Non-painted components, such as ceramic tile and vinyl baseboards, were not tested. Factory finish components or paneled areas such as walls, vent covers, countertops, exhaust hood covers, mailboxes, sinks, electrical panels, closet clothing bars, and light fixtures, etc., were not tested unless they were painted.

Ceramic Tile may be a Lead Containing Material such as that found in many Ceramic Tile glazes. Secondary Coverings such as drop ceilings, paneling, vinyl siding, wallpaper, furniture, clutter, etc. may conceal painted components, which were not accessible during this inspection. Care must be taken not to disturb concealed components unless it is determined that they do not contain lead-based paint.

The data in this report represents the entire scope of services for this Inspection. Conclusions drawn or opinions formed by others from this data are their own, and shall in no way obligate PbO3 Environmental Monitoring, LLC.

To the best of our knowledge and belief, the data contained herein is true and correct as represented. However, this should not be considered an undertaking where lead hazards are identified nor should any warranty, or guarantee, of suitability be assumed.

When evaluating this report, it is assumed as per HUD’s “Guidelines for the Evaluation and Control of Lead-Based Paint Hazards in Housing”, Chapter 7, that if one testing combination (ex: living room/window sill/wood) in an interior or exterior room equivalent is found to be positive for lead-based paint, then all other similar testing combinations in that room equivalent are also assumed to be positive for lead-based paint. The exception to this assumption is when 100% of the similar testing combinations in the room equivalent are tested.

Summary of the Findings

Test Method Performed No. of Samples No. above Action Level and/or Positive

No. below Action Level and/or Negative

X-ray Fluorescence 129 0 129

Notes All windows are aluminum.

All interior doors are unpainted wood.

Results

The Lead Inspection of the subject property showed that LEAD-BASED PAINT (as defined in Title X of the 1992 Housing and Community Development Act -equal to or greater than 1.0 mg/cm2) WAS NOT FOUND in the sample locations tested.

Conclusion

We can conclude that LEAD-BASED PAINT (as defined in Title X of the 1992 Housing and Community Development Act) was not detected. NO FURTHER ACTION required.

E 3

The results of this inspection indicate that no lead in amounts greater than or equal to 1.0 mg/cm2 in paint was found on any building components using the inspection protocol in Chapter 7 of the HUD Guidelines for the Evaluation and Control of Lead-Based Paint Hazards in Housing (1997 Revision). Therefore, this dwelling qualifies for the exemption in 24 CFR part 35 and 40 CFR part 745 for target housing being leased that is free of lead-based paint, as defined in the rule. However, some painted surfaces may contain levels of lead below 1.0 mg/cm2, which could create lead dust or lead-contaminated soil hazards if the paint is turned into dust by abrasion, scraping, or sanding. This report should be kept by the owner and all future owners for the life of the dwelling.

Recommendations

1. Notify the owner of the results of this inspection.

“A copy of this summary must be provided to new lessees (tenants) and purchasers of this property under Federal law (24 CFR part 35 and 40 CFR part 745) before they become obligated under a lease or sales contract.

The complete report must also be provided to new purchasers, and it must be made available to new tenants.

Landlords (lessors) and sellers are also required to distribute an educational pamphlet approved by the U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency and include standard warning language in their leases or sales contracts to ensure that parents have information they need to protect their children form lead-based paint hazards” 1

2. REPORT

Purpose

The purpose of this Inspection is to identify and determine the presence or absence of lead-based paint as defined by The U.S. Department Of Housing And Urban Development publication “The Guidelines For The Evaluation And Control Of Lead - Based Paint Hazards in Housing” June 1995. “The Guidelines” were developed pursuant to Section 1017 of Title X, the Residential Lead Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992, requiring the EPA to develop health- based standards for paint, dust, and soil.

Definition of “Lead - Based Paint Hazard”

Title X redefines the concept of "lead-based paint." Under prior Federal legislation, a lead-based paint was any paint with

1.0 mg/cm2 or more of lead, regardless of paint condition or location. Title X states that a lead-based paint hazard is "any condition that causes exposure to lead . . . that would result in adverse human health effects" from:

• Lead-contaminated dust

• Bare, lead-contaminated soil

• Lead-contaminated paint that is deteriorated or present on accessible surfaces, friction surfaces, or impact surfaces.

Title X acknowledges that some lead-based paint hazards are of more immediate concern than others. In these Guidelines the hazards considered to be of greatest immediate concern are those to which children are most exposed:

lead-contaminated dust; deteriorated lead-based paint; and lead-contaminated soil if it is bare, accessible to young children, and/or likely to be blown or tracked into the dwelling. Also of concern is friction, chewable, and impact surfaces with intact lead-based paint. Friction surfaces are subject to abrasion and may generate lead-contaminated dust in the dwelling; chewable surfaces are protruding surfaces that are easily chewed on by young children; and impact surfaces may become deteriorated through forceful contact. Intact lead-based paint on flat surfaces not subject to abrasion, impact, or other disturbances, although of less concern, is still a potential hazard because the paint could deteriorate over time as a result of age, disturbance (through renovation and repair) or major casualty (such as fire, storms, and water leaks).

Lead - based paint is any paint, varnish, stain, or other applied coating that has 1 mg/cm² (or 5,000 parts per million) or more of lead. For the purposes of these Guidelines the terms "leaded paint" and "lead-containing paint" are synonymous with "lead-based paint".

A lead - based paint hazard may be interpreted by environmental sampling for lead dust. If lead dust samples collected by wipe sampling exceed the levels established by HUD, a lead - based paint hazard exists.

Lead Testing Methods

Lead-Based Paint, X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF)

XRF testing is performed to detect the presence of lead on painted surfaces. XRF testing is usually the preferred method of testing because it is non-destructive, quantitative and can be performed on the spot with acceptable accuracy. The results of the XRF testing is one of the major sources of gathering evidence for drawing conclusions and making recommendations in the final report. PbO3 Inspectors follow the manufacturer’s suggested use and the Performance Characteristic Sheet of the XRF instrument being used. PbO3 currently uses the NITON XL Spectrum Analyzer with automatic substrate correction, software downloading capabilities, 3/8-inch penetration capabilities, and many more sophisticated advantages.

In performing XRF testing all PbO3 Inspectors follow the Department of Housing and Urban Developments federal guidelines for testing lead by using an XRF instrument. All state and city regulations are followed when applicable and, in

E 5

U.S. EPA Certified Lead-Based Paint Activities Firm #NAT-F178890 all cases, the most stringent regulation is followed. PbO3 Inspectors test one of each and every different type of accessible testing combination in each room being inspected or as described in our client services agreement. Testing procedures for XRF testing are usually performed from left to right by room and within each room left to right by component. The testing format is followed unless otherwise noted. Each XRF reading is assigned an exclusive reference number and a measurement that is stored in the instrument. Each reference number location is logged on the data sheets for future reference, testing location and report generation.

Current action levels for lead-based paint testing using XRF vary from state to state. The federal level is currently 1.0 mg/cm2.

See Appendix A for LEAD PAINT INSPECTION REPORT DATA SHEETS for measurement, location, substrate, and surfaces tested.

Dust Wipes

Dust wipes are taken after the initial inspection (if applicable), to determine current levels of lead dust (Risk Assessment), during interim controls (regularly scheduled sampling), or after an abatement activity to determine the post abatement levels. Dust wipes are typically taken from three different places: Floor, Window Troughs and Windowsills. The lead dust levels will determine if a Lead Hazard exists and will help in the decision-making process as to what forms of interim controls are needed.

Lead, like iron, oxidizes, though when iron oxidizes it forms rust, and when lead oxidizes it will form lead carbonate.

Some people call the lead carbonate “chalking” of the lead. Inhaling or ingesting lead carbonate can be as dangerous as eating a lead paint chip. Most people are unaware that a small child does not have to eat paint chips to acquire an elevated blood lead level (EBL). The hand-to-mouth activity of a crawling child in an area with lead dust can induce Lead Poisoning. Lead dust problems can also place the occupants and participants at risk during renovation and/or construction activities.

PbO3 believes that high lead dust levels pose a greater health threat than the mere presence of intact lead-based paint.

Consequently, we strongly suggest regularly scheduled monitoring by lead dust wipes, until full abatement is completed.

Revised Dust-Lead Hazard Standards (DLHS) as of January 06, 2020;

Current Action Levels for lead in dust: Interior Floor 10 ug/ft2 Porch Floor >40ug/ft2 Windowsill 100 ug/ft2 Troughs 100 ug/ft2 Current Action Level Soil for children play areas Greater than 400 PPM

Soil

Soil samples are usually taken after the initial inspection (if applicable), to determine the current level of lead in the soil and after any exterior abatement (including pressure washing) or renovation activities have taken place. PbO3 Inspectors take the soil samples from the side of a property and other areas of concern that are most likely to have a possible elevated lead level. A typical soil sample is collected by taking multiple spoonful’s of soil from one side of a piece of property typically along a straight line and a half-inch deep. By performing our sampling in this fashion, we are acquiring a representative sample from a specific side of the property.

EPA recommends the following action levels for lead in soil.

Action Level Children play areas Greater than 400 PPM Interim controls.

Non-children play areas Greater than 2000 PPM Interim controls.

All areas of exposed soil Greater than 5000 PPM Permanent Barrier or Abatement.

Paint Chips

Paint chips are used for confirmation of lead-based paint as part of an inspection (if applicable), or as a solution to inconclusive measurement recorded by the use of XRF testing. Paint chips are typically not taken unless absolutely necessary. Every time a paint chip is taken the painted surface must be disturbed, and this leaves the potential for additional lead contamination. When Paint chips are taken, they are usually from non-conspicuous areas and tape is placed over the removed paint location. The paint chips are then sent to the laboratory for analysis.

Current action levels for lead in paint:

0.5% by weight or 5,000 PPM (parts per million) Weighted concentration

1.0 mg/cm2 Loading concentration (by XRF)

See summary results for chips, wipes, soil & water (if applicable).

Water

Water samples are collected to determine if lead is present in the water system. Two water samples are usually collected, a first draw and a two-minute draw. The first draw is the first draw of the day; it allows for the longest duration of time to allow any sediment in the water lines to collect and typically, if lead is present in the system, gives the highest results. The second sample is drawn after the cold-water tap has been turned on for two minutes. The second draw allows the tap time to flush itself from any particles that might have accumulated while the line was dormant. By taking two samples PbO3 Inspectors are better able to assess if there is possible water contamination due to lead and where it might be coming from. If the first draw is high and the second draw is low, it probably means that the lead is coming from the property’s plumbing. If both samples produce high levels, the problem is probably coming from the municipal water lines or both.

Current action levels for lead in water:

15 to 20 ppb (parts per billion)

See summary results for chips, wipes, soil & water (if applicable).

Methodology Used

This Inspection has been conducted utilizing an established protocol. The protocol contains four components.

1. Perform a visual assessment of the subject property and paint condition.

2. Calibrate Niton XL XRF # 92540

3. Test building components.

All room equivalents (e.g., room, house exterior, foyer, etc.) are tested. All testing combinations within each room equivalent are tested. All painted surfaces (surfaces coated with paint, shellac, varnish, stain, paint covered with wallpaper, or any other coating) are tested.

At least one XRF reading on each testing combination in each room equivalent are tested. For walls, at least one reading on each wall in a room equivalent is tested.

Certain building components that are adjacent to each other and not likely to have different painting histories can be grouped together into a single testing combination, as follows:

Window casings, stops, jambs and aprons are a single testing combination.

E 7

U.S. EPA Certified Lead-Based Paint Activities Firm #NAT-F178890

Interior window mullions and window sashes are a single testing combination – we do not group interior mullion and sashes with exterior mullions and sashes.

Exterior window mullions and window sashes are a single testing combination.

Door jambs, stops, transforms, casings, and other door frame parts are a single testing combination.

Door stiles, rails, panels, mullions, and other door parts are a single testing combination.

Baseboards and associated trim, (such as quarter-round or other caps) are a single testing combination (do not group chair rails, crown molding or walls with baseboards).

Painted electrical sockets, switches or plates can be grouped with walls.

Each of these building parts should be tested separately if there is some specific reason to believe that they have a different painting history. In most cases, separate testing will not be necessary.

Building Component Types – A building component type consists of doors, windows, walls, and so on that are repeated in more than one room equivalent in a unit and have a common substrate. If a unique building component is present in only one room, it is considered to be a testing combination. Each testing combination may be composed of more than one building component (such as two similar windows within a room equivalent).

Component types can be located inside or outside the dwelling. For example, typical component types in a bedroom would be the ceiling, walls, a door and its casing, the window sash, window casings, and any other distinct surface such as baseboards, crown molding, and chair rails. If trends or patterns of lead-based paint classifications are found among building component types in different room equivalents, an inspection report may summarize results by building component type, as long as all measurements are included in the report. For example, the inspection may find that all doors and casings in a dwelling unit are positive.

APPROXIMATE COST ESTIMATES FOR REMEDIATION

The price estimates below are based on numerous assumptions and variables that are ever changing. The cost estimates are only estimates and should not be considered final and absolute costs to remediate the property inspected of any lead hazards found. PbO3 estimates are based on average industry prices for the median cost option for various components.

Dependent on the course of action the particular property uses to remediate, the price estimates may vary greatly from actual cost proposals.

Approximate abatement costs (per component):

*Above pricing includes the cost of post abatement cleanups.

APPENDIX A

LEAD SURVEY DATA PAGES

When reviewing “Appendix A Lead Survey Data Pages” you will notice that the components tested are described using the letters A, B, C and D, under the “Surface” column, to designate the walls of the related room. When entering the room, the first wall that is in the same plain or closest to the street address of the property is considered to be “A-wall”, “B-wall”, “C-wall”, and “D-wall” run clockwise.

Lead paint testing using XRF technology results are provided on the attached tables. Per this type of analytical methodology, XRF values tend to vary slightly for lead detected on the same surface, within the parameters of the instrumentation and the paint history of the testing combination. If a component is not shown on the data pages, the assumption should not be made that the particular component is lead safe. The only way to determine the presence of lead on a component is to have it tested.

Note: Negative values in Column mg/cm2 (PbC) are likely due to XRF interference and are typically not of concern unless more than 20% of the readings are negative.

LEAD PRECAUTIONARY PROCEDURES

E 18

U.S. EPA Certified Lead-Based Paint Activities Firm #NAT-F178890

CONTROLLING LEAD DUST LEVELS

Lead painted surfaces that are renovated or in disrepair can release hazardous lead dust. PbO3 advises that abatement and cleanup measures specified in the HUD Guidelines be employed where lead surfaces are disturbed and prior to re-occupancy of affected areas. In such cases, clean-up procedures should be performed by a contractor who can commit to conformance with the HUD Guidelines and Clearance requirements. Lead dust sampling conducted after the abatement will verify the effectiveness of the clean-up measures.

The wipe samples are then analyzed by a laboratory which is approved and accredited by professional organizations to analyze environmental samples for the presence of lead.

MAINTENANCE OF LEAD PAINTED SURFACES

This discussion relates to intact lead painted surfaces.

Government authorities now recognize that even intact lead painted surfaces pose a health risk and should be abated (covered or removed). Accordingly, it is recommended that any lead painted surfaces (particularly surfaces such as protruding windowsills and door stops which children are likely to come into contact with) should be properly abated.

In the absence of full removal or covering of lead paint with impermeable barriers (e.g., sheet rock, encapsulants), it is advisable that a primer and several layers of high-quality paint be applied over intact lead painted surfaces. The following program of inspecting and maintaining such intact painted surfaces can lower the risk of lead dust hazards from lead painted surfaces in a home or work environment.

1. Avoid any activities that disturb lead-painted surfaces. Even chemical stripping of lead-based paint will generate lead dust.

2. Wet wipe surfaces with water containing a detergent called LEDIZOLV (non-TSP biodegradable, metal ionizing lead detergent), with a frequency sufficient to prevent accumulation of dust.

3. Frequently survey lead painted surfaces to ensure that they are intact. Problematic surfaces should be abated in conformance with HUD regulations and by a trained professional.

4. Avoid the use of regular vacuum cleaners on debris that may contain lead dust. Use of high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) vacuums is recommended, with a frequency sufficient to prevent accumulation of dust.

Note: Changing HEPA filters requires that special safety and health precautions be followed.

5. Monitor activities of young children. Prevent them from coming into contact with lead painted surfaced as much as possible and regularly wash their hands (especially before they handle food).

6. Determine children’s blood lead levels, at a frequency prescribed by a physician who specializes in lead poisoning. In cases where concern is raised about potential exposure to lead, PbO3 recommends that concerned parties have blood levels analyzed by an OSHA-approved laboratory, and that the results be interpreted by a physician. We recommend routine blood lead testing of children under the age of six.

PbO3 has provided general information on reducing the risk of lead poisoning in both residential and commercial spaces.

Detailed Information on avoiding and/or treating lead poisoning can be obtained without cost from: The National Center for Education in Maternal and Child Health, 38th and R Street, NW, Washington D.C. 20057, phone (703) 524-7802.

Glossary

Abatement: A measure designed to permanently eliminate lead-based paint hazards according to standards established by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator, pursuant to Title IV of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). Abatement strategies include the removal of lead-based paint, its enclosure, its encapsulation with a product shown to meet established or recognized standards pursuant to Title IV of TSCA, replacement of building components coated by lead-based paint, removal of lead-contaminated dust, and removal of lead-contaminated soil or overlaying of a durable covering—not grass or sod, which are considered interim control measures—on top of the soil, as well as preparation, cleanup, disposal, post-abatement clearance testing, recordkeeping, and, if applicable, monitoring.

Accessible surface: Any interior or exterior surface such as sills and protruding surfaces that a young child can mouth or chew.

Action Level: the defining limit for a required regulatory response.

Bare soil: Soil not covered with grass, sod, or some other similar vegetation. Bare soil includes sand (for example, the sand in sandboxes).

Base substrate: The building material beneath the lead-based paint film. The material may be plaster, wood, brick, or metal.

Biological monitoring: The analysis of blood, urine, or both to determine the level of lead contamination in the body.

Blood lead levels are expressed in micrograms of lead per one-tenth of a liter of blood (a deciliter), or g/dL.

Building component: Any part of a building coated with paint.

Certified: The designation for contractors who have completed training and other requirements to allow them to safely undertake risk assessments, inspections, and abatement work. Risk assessors, lead-based paint inspectors, and abatement contractors should be certified by the appropriate State or Federal agency.

Chalking: The photo-oxidation of paint binders—usually due to weathering—which causes a powder to form on the film surface.

Chewed surface: Any painted surface that shows evidence of having been chewed or mouthed by a young child. A chewed surface is usually a protruding, horizontal part of a building, such as an interior windowsill.

Cleaning: The process of using a HEPA vacuum and wet cleaning agents to remove leaded dust; the process includes the removal of bulk debris from the work area. OSHA prohibits the use of compressed air to blow lead-contaminated dust off a surface.

Clearance examination: Visual examination and collection of environmental samples by an inspector technician or risk assessor and analysis by an accredited laboratory upon completion of an abatement project, interim control intervention, or maintenance job that disturbs lead-based paint (or paint suspected of being lead-based paint). The examination is done to assure that lead exposure levels do not exceed standards established by the EPA Administrator pursuant to Title IV of the Toxic Substances Control Act and that any cleaning following such work adequately meets those standards.

Common area: A room or area that is accessible to all residents in a community (for example, a hallway or a lobby); in general, any area not kept locked.

Compliance plan: A document that describes the tasks, workers, protective measures, and tools and other materials that may be used in lead-based paint hazard control to comply with the OSHA Lead in Construction Standard.

Containment: A process to protect workers and the environment by controlling exposures to lead-contaminated dust and debris created during abatement. See Worksite preparation level.

E 27

Detection limit: The minimum amount of a substance that can be reliably measured by a particular method.

Deteriorated lead-based paint: Interior or exterior lead-based paint that is peeling, chipping, blistering, flaking, worn, chalking, alligatoring, cracking, or otherwise becoming separated from the substrate, or lead-based paint on a damaged or deteriorated surface or fixture.

Dust removal: A form of interim control that involves initial cleaning intervention followed by periodic monitoring and recleaning, as needed. Depending on the degree of lead-based paint hazards, dust removal may be the primary activity or just one element of a broader effort that addresses lead-based paint hazards.

Elevated Blood Lead level (EBL): In children, any blood lead level greater than 10 g/Dl; in adults, any blood lead level greater than 25 g/dL, as determined by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Enclosure: The use of rigid, durable construction materials that are mechanically fastened to the substrate in order to act as a barrier between the lead-based paint and the environment.

Evaluation: Risk assessment, paint inspection, or both.

Exterior work area: Any area such as a porch, stairway, or siding outside a building during lead-based paint hazard control work. This area includes a safety perimeter and access barriers.

Friction surface: Any interior or exterior surface, such as windows or stair treads, that is subject to abrasion or friction.

Hazardous waste: As defined in EPA Regulations (40 CFR 261.3), the term hazardous waste means solid waste or a combination of solid wastes that because of its quantity, concentration, physical, chemical, or infectious characteristics may cause or significantly contribute to increases in mortality or serious and irreversible or incapacitating but reversible illnesses or pose a substantial present or potential hazard to human health or the environment when improperly treated, stored, transported, or disposed. As defined in the regulations, solid waste is hazardous if it meets one of four conditions:

(1) exhibits a characteristic of hazardous waste (40 CFR Sections 261.20 through 262.24); (2) has been listed as hazardous (40 CFR Section 261.31 through 261.33); (3) is a mixture containing a listed hazardous waste and a nonhazardous solid waste, unless the mixture is specifically excluded or no longer exhibits any of the characteristics of hazardous waste; and (4) is not excluded from regulation as hazardous waste. For the waste produced in lead-based paint abatement, hazardous waste is waste that contains more than 5 ppm of leachable lead as determined by the TCLP Test, or waste that is corrosive, ignitable, or reactive and is not otherwise excluded.

High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter: A filter capable of removing particles of 0.3 microns or larger from air at

99.97 percent or greater efficiency.

High phosphate detergent: See Trisodium phosphate detergent.

Impact surface: An interior or exterior surface such as those on doors and door jambs subject to damage by repeated impacts.

Interim controls: A set of measures designed to temporarily reduce human exposure or possible exposure to lead-based paint hazards. Such measures include specialized cleaning, repairs, maintenance, painting, temporary containment, and management and resident education programs. Monitoring levels of lead exposures by owners and reevaluation by professionals is an integral element of interim controls. Interim controls include dust removal, paint film stabilization, treatment of friction and impact surface, and installation of soil coverings, such as grass or sod, or land-use controls.

Interior windowsill: The portion of the horizontal window ledge that protrudes into the interior of the room, adjacent to the window sash when the window is closed; often called the window stool.

Intermediate controls: Coatings or rigid materials such as encapsulants and floor tiles that prevent lead-based paint from causing excessive lead exposures and that rely on adhesion to the existing paint film for their durability.

Lead: Lead includes metallic lead and inorganic and organic compounds of lead.

E 28

U.S. EPA Certified Lead-Based Paint Activities Firm #NAT-F178890

Lead-based paint: Any paint, varnish, shellac, or other coating that contains lead equal to or greater than 1.0 mg/cm² as measured by x-ray fluorescence detector or laboratory analysis, or 0.5 percent by weight (5,000 g/g, 5,000 ppm, or 5,000 mg/kg) by laboratory analysis. (Local definitions may differ). Lead-based paint means paint of other surface coatings that contain lead equal to or greater than 1.0 mg/cm2 or .05 percent by weight. Surface coatings include paint, shellac, varnish, or any other coating, including wallpaper that covers painted surfaces.

Lead-based paint hazard: A condition in which exposure to lead from lead-contaminated dust, lead-contaminated soil, or from lead-based paint that has deteriorated or coats accessible, friction, or impact surfaces would result in adverse human health effects, as established by the EPA Administrator under Title IV of the Toxic Substances Control Act.

Lead-based paint hazard control: Activities to control and eliminate lead-based paint hazards, including interim controls, intermediate controls, abatement, and complete removal.

Lead carbonate: A pigment used in some lead-based paint as a hiding agent; also known as white lead.

Lead-contaminated dust: Surface dust in residences that contains an area or mass concentration of lead in excess of the standard established by the EPA Administrator, pursuant to Title IV of the Toxic Substances Control Act. Until the EPA standards are set.

Lead-contaminated soil: Bare soil on residential property that contains lead in excess of the standard established by the EPA Administrator, pursuant to Title IV of the Toxic Substances Control Act. The interim HUD recommendation is 400 g/g in high-contact play areas, and 2,000 ppm in other bare areas of the yard. Soil above 5,000 µg/g should be abated by removal or paving.

Lead hazard screen: A means of determining whether residences in good condition built between 1960 and 1978 should have a full risk assessment using dust sampling and visual survey.

Lead loading: The mass of lead in a given surface area on a substrate. Lead loading is typically measured in units of milligrams per square centimeter (mg/cm2). It is also called area concentration.

Lead-poisoned child: A child with a single blood lead level measurement of 20 g/dL or 15 g/dL or greater for two measurements taken at least one month apart.

Maintenance: Work to maintain adequate living conditions in a dwelling that may disturb lead-based paint or paint that is suspected to be lead-based paint.

Method detection limit (MDL): The minimum concentration of an analyte that, in a given matrix and by using a specific method, has a 99-percent probability of being identified, qualitatively or quantitatively measured, and reported to be greater than zero.

mg: Milligram; one-thousandth of a gram; a unit of weight.

Monitoring: Surveillance on a continuing basis by a property owner of lead-based paint hazard control measures implemented on a property. In contrast, reevaluation is the visual examination and environmental sampling conducted by a certified risk assessor or certified inspector of target housing units that have undergone abatement or interim control interventions (and clearance tests) to determine if lead-based paint hazards have reappeared. Monitoring and reevaluations are needed for interim controls, intermediate controls or encapsulation, and enclosure.

Multifamily housing: Housing that has more than one dwelling unit in one location.

Offsite paint removal: The process of removing a component of a building and stripping the paint from the component at a paint-stripping facility.

Oxidation: A chemical reaction that occurs upon exposure to oxygen. Some coatings cure by oxidation; oxygen enters the liquid coating and crosslinks (attaches) the resin molecules. This film-forming method is also called Air Cure or Air Dry. Oxidation also causes rust to form on metals and paint to chalk.

E 29

Paint film stabilization: The process of wet scraping, priming, and repainting deteriorated lead-based paint in a dwelling;

the process includes cleanup and clearance.

Paint removal: A strategy of abatement that entails removing lead-based paint from surfaces. For lead-hazard control work this can mean using chemicals, heat guns that produce temperatures below 1100F, and certain contained abrasive methods but not by open flame burning, open abrasive blasting, sandblasting, water blasting, or extensive dry scraping.

(Methylene chloride paint removers are also not recommended.)

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Equipment for protecting the eyes, face, head, and/or extremities, including protective clothing, respiratory devices and protective shields when hazards capable of causing bodily injury or impairment are encountered.

Precision: The degree to which a set of observations or measurements of the same property, usually obtained under similar conditions, conform to themselves; a data quality indicator. Precision is usually expressed in either absolute or relative terms as standard deviation, variance, or range.

Reevaluation: In lead hazard control work, a visual assessment and collection of environmental samples by a certified risk assessor or certified inspector technician to determine if a lead-based paint hazard control measure that has been implemented is still effective and if the dwelling is still lead-safe.

Renovation: Work that involves construction and home or building improvement measures such as window replacement, weatherization, remodeling, and repainting.

Replacement: A strategy of abatement that entails the removal of building components that have surfaces coated with lead-based paint, such as windows, doors, and trim, and the installation of new components free of lead-based paint.

Risk assessment: An onsite investigation of a residential dwelling for lead-based paint hazards. Risk assessment includes investigating the age, history, management, and maintenance of the dwelling, and the number of children under age 6 and women of child-bearing age who are residents; conducting a visual assessment; performing limited environmental sampling, such as dust wipe samples, soil samples, and deteriorated paint samples; and reporting the results that identify acceptable abatement and interim control strategies based on specific conditions and the owner's capabilities for controlling identified lead-based paint hazards.

Risk assessor: A certified individual who has completed training from an accredited training program and who has been certified to (1) perform risk assessments; (2) identify acceptable abatement and interim control strategies for reducing identified lead-based paint hazards (3) perform clearance testing and reevaluations; and (4) document the successful completion of lead-based paint hazard control…
