Lead was added to paint to retard deterioration, improve durability and enhance the quality. The disturbance of lead-containing coatings is regulated by the EPA, Occupational Safety and Health Administration and many state plans. The presence of lead in coatings is also controlled by the Housing and Urban Development in target housing. The mere existence of lead in coatings is generally not a problem. The generation of lead dusts is created when surfaces containing lead are allowed to deteriorate, or be sanded, drilled or heated during the renovation of a structure. Once created the dust can be inhaled when airborne or picked up and swallowed through contamination from dust laden surfaces. Lead from paint, chips and dust can pose serious health hazards if not taken care of properly, and can remain in the area long after the improper work is completed.
Children can be of greater risk to lead exposure as babies and young children often put their hands and other objects in their mouths. Children's growing bodies absorb more lead. Their brains and nervous systems are more sensitive to the damaging affects of lead.
All Colorado Hazard Control team members are cross trained to recognize other safety issues including confined space, scaffolding, fall protection, and are State or EPA certified for asbestos, lead based paint and mold remediation.
