1 ?Lead-based paint? is currently defined by the federal government as paint with. lead levels greater than or equal to 1.0 milligram per square centimeter (mg/cm2), or more than 0.5% by weight.
The United States banned the manufacture of lead-based house paint in 1978 due to health concerns. Lead has long been considered to be a harmful environmental pollutant. Cited cases of lead poisoning date back to the early 20th century.
EPA has established 400 ppm for lead in bare soils in play areas and 1,200 ppm for non-play areas for federally funded projects. EPA's action level for lead in water delivered to users of public drinking water systems is 15 µg/L.
Wear disposable coveralls, shoes, hair covering, goggles and a properly fitting respirator. Only HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) respirators will filter lead dust and fumes. Simple paper or fabric dust masks will NOT protect you from lead dust. To avoid ingesting lead, do not eat, drink or smoke while working.
