Lead-Based Paint
Throughout recent years, there have been many changes in Federal and State legislation, and work practices with regard to the different aspects of lead-based paint projects. Ecosystems Environmental Services, Inc. has been at the forefront of this information network, increasing our ability to provide professional services using the latest technology with emphasis on health, safety, and cost effectiveness.
Ecoystem's team involved with lead projects includes Industrial Hygienists, state licensed lead project designers, inspectors, and risk assessors.
Our involvement in this industry has been with government, industrial, commercial, and residential clients. The quality or our services are proven through our team's thorough knowledge of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) guidelines, applicable OSHA and EPA regulations, as well as their extensive experience in the lead industry.

Site Management
Ecosystems provides complete site management from the initial survey or risk assessment to developing the abatement design specifications, coordinating abatement, providing cost estimates, monitoring the project with our industrial hygiene staff, providing final clearance verification for re-occupancy, and developing management plans/interim controls to manage lead-based paint that is left in place.
Lead-based Paint Survey
Lead-based paint surveys are conducted using an X-ray Flouorescent (XRF) Spectrum Analyzer. The inspection will identify, quantify, determine the condition, and potential health hazards of lead-based painted surfaces.
Lead-based Paint Abatement Design Specifications
Design specifications are developed to define the work procedures, practices and industrial hygiene monitoring required to ensure compliance with EPA, OSHA, and State regulations for the protection of worker and community health and safety.
Lead-based Paint Project Monitoring
Our industrial hygiene staff monitor abatement projects to ensure compliance with abatement design specifications. Ambient air is monitored during abatement. Dust wipe and soil samples are collected for final clearance verification prior to reoccupancy in accordance with the protocols established by HUD.
Lead-based Paint Risk Assessments
Risk assessments are conducted to determine the presence of lead-based painted structures and the associated health risks based on numerous factors and to then determine actions necessary to reduce this risk. |
