Lead-Based Paint Operations & Maintenance Work Practices Manual for Homes and Buildings

This technical procedure manual provides detailed guidance to homeowners, custodial and O&M workers, maintenance supervisors, and building owners for performing work where lead-based paint is, or may be, present. It also provides practical, specific guidance in an important environmental area where laws and regulations are rapidly evolving at the federal, state, and local level. The O&M Manual addresses a range of situations in which operations and maintenance activities are routinely performed in buildings whether or not lead is present. It addresses three different levels of precaution which may be warranted by specific building conditions and by the amount of potentially lead-contaminated dust and debris which may be generated by the activities. This document was developed by NIBS in cooperation with the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. This document is also available in electronic format on compact disc (CD) for use on MS-DOS/Windows based computers in WordPerfect, Microsoft Word, and ASCII text formats.  CDs are not sold separately. [May, 1995/195 Pages]

This technical guidance document provides building owners and their representatives guidance in purchasing services for reducing lead-based paint (LBP) hazards. It addresses LBP inspection, risk assessment, interim controls and abatement of LBP in buildings in the context of a stand alone project and as part of a larger renovation project.

It conforms with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Guidelines for The Evaluation and Control of Lead-Based Paint Hazards in Housing, current Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations and guidance documents, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations and other federal regulations and guidance documents affecting LBP hazard reduction. The Guide Specifications addresses state regulations by example and provides guidance on how to find specific state regulations.
