The rules recognize that there is a cost factor in choosing the best option and thus interim controls may make the most <br />sense. Interim options are perfectly acceptable as long as they are done correctly and subsequently monitored. <br />PRIORITIES <br />When deciding which area to remediate first, priority should be given to the area where children spend the most time. <br />First, eliminate any hazardous levels of lead dust in the area using the lead safe cleaning practices described later in this <br />information. Next, concentrate on the repair of specific areas where deteriorated paint is identified in the Risk <br />Assessment Report. The final priority is to eliminate leaded soil and other exterior hazards identified in the report. <br />SEVERITY <br />Although the Risk Assessment Report identifies the "severity" of each hazard, this factor does not dictate priority. Paint <br />hazard severity classifications are: <br />Good: Any painted component that does not have any structural defects and paint defects. <br />Fair: Any painted component that has minimal structural defects and the paint defects are below the de minimis <br />levels. <br />Poor: Any painted component that has minimal to major structural defects and paint defects above the de minimis <br />levels. <br />The de minimis level for exterior paint deterioration is twenty (20) square feet of deteriorated paint. For the interior, the <br />level is two (2) square feet. Small areas are considered "poor" if more than 10% of the component area is deteriorated. <br />Technically, lead paint with a severity level of "fair" does not have to be treated as a hazard. However the area should be <br />safely repaired so as not to present a lead poisoning hazard in the future, <br />In the instance that the report includes areas inspected only for the presence of lead paint, the severity factor will be <br />"good" but the area may need to be addressed according to the inspector's instructions. <br />ABATEMENT <br />Abatement means any measure or set of measures designed to permanently eliminate lead-based paint hazards, Projects <br />which are represented by a licensed abatement contractor as resulting in the elimination of lead-based paint hazards are <br />considered abatement. Likewise, projects conducted in response to state or local abatement orders are considered <br />abatement. Abatement includes such activities as the replacement of building components, the complete removal of lead <br />paint or lead dust, encapsulation of lead-based paint hazards, enclosure of lead-based paint hazards, and other permanent <br />measures, <br />RENOVATION AND REPAIR <br />The rules recognize that some renovation, repair, remodeling, landscaping, operation, maintenance, or other activities are <br />not conducted for the express purpose of lead hazard remediation. In general, lead remediation rules do not apply with <br />those activities, even though they may incidentally result in a reduction or elimination of lead-based paint hazards, <br />However attention to lead safe work practices is strongly recommended whenever any work is likely to disturb lead- <br />based paint. <br />Moreover, the requirements to use lead safe work practices still apply to these activities in an occupied rental unit or in a <br />unit where there is a confirmed lead poisoned child. <br />RiskAssessmentNo.: 84000015462 Address., 628PARKAVE Page 19 of 23 <br />
