Visual Assessment, Paint Inspection/Paint Testing and Risk Assessment for Lead-Based Paint Materials Prior to any sampling activity, The Bainbridge Group management personnel will coordinate and review any previous (if available) surveys and plans for the subject properties in order to determine and perform an inspection/sampling plan. As warranted, a renovation-engineering type of survey will be conducted whereby suspect lead paint materials will be sampled in order to obtain a definitive account for lead painted materials prior to any work. A site inspection/visual assessment will be performed by a certified inspector experienced in conducting lead paint surveys. The inspection will be conducted by first reviewing available blueprints, plans and other data that describe the facility layout, construction materials and dates of construction and renovations. A walk-through of all buildings will then be conducted to identify the areas of concern. Unless otherwise requested, all projects will be tested with the use of an X-ray fluorescence (XRF) Niton device. All work will be performed in accordance with the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development's guidance documents entitled "Guidelines for the Evaluation and Control of Lead-Based Paint Hazards in Housing". Materials suspected of containing lead paint once tested, will be identified, and the location, extent and characteristics of each color or type of painted material will be recorded. When bulk chip sampling is performed, two standards will be used to assess and sample painted/coated building materials: ASTM EI729-95--This standard addresses acceptable procedures for the collection of dried paint samples or other suspect coatings from buildings and related structures, whether by heat gun, cold scraping or coring methods. The use of a heat gun will require the use of a proper respirator, presence of a fire extinguisher, and cannot be used in occupied areas. The cold scraping method of collection is most advantageous in that it can be used on a wide variety of surfaces and both lead area and lead concentration determinations can be performed on the collected sample.
