Abstract |
The Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act (Title X) required the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to conduct a study of lead exposure resulting from renovation and remodeling (R&R) activities (the R&R study). The report presents the results of one of the principal data collection efforts in the R&R study: the Environmental Field Sampling Study (EFSS). The monitored activities included both specific R&R activities such as carpet removal and window replacement, as well as miscellaneous generic activities such as drilling, sawing, or surface preparation (sanding, paint, scraping, etc.). Environmental samples collected in the EFSS included over 90 personal air samples taken within the breathing zone of R&R workers as they performed specific R&R activities, and over 500 samples of dust that settled on building surfaces within a specified period following completion of an activity. Worker exposure was assessed using the airborne lead levels from each worker's breathing zone, as measured by a task-length average (TLA) exposure. Potential exposure to building occupants was assessed using the dust samples collected by vacuum techniques from stainless steel dustfall collectors placed at specified distances from the activity. |
