Lead Clearance Or Post Remedial
Lead Sampling And Testing

ENSPEC Environmental Safety Consulting, Inc. offers thorough and exhaustive Lead Clearance Sampling/Testing. A Lead Clearance typically is conducted after a licensed general lead abatement contractor has performed any lead abatement work.

Generally, a Lead Clearance is performed to insure that the abatement (removal), encasement / encapsulation of any lead positive surfaces has been done properly according to the HUD (United States Department of Housing and Urban Development) guidelines.

More importantly, a lead clearance provides the client with peace of mind - knowing that there are no longer any lead risks present on the premises.

ENSPEC Environmental Safety Consulting, Inc. conducts all lead clearances according to the guidelines and procedures outlined in the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development's document entitled: Guidelines for the Evaluation and Control of Lead-Based Paint Hazards in Housing, published June 1995 (Revised 1997) and with the care, dilligance and skill of reputable professionals.

ENSPEC utilizes lead dust wipe sampling and soil sampling (where applicable)to conduct its lead clearances. ENSPEC uses laboratories that are accredited by the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA), who participate in Environmental Lead Laboratory Proficiency Analytical Testing (ELLPAT) programs for lead, and who are accredited by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). All laboratories employed analyze lead dust wipes and soil samples using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy ("AAS").

ENSPEC provides a comprehensive lead clearance sampling / testing report, typically delivered to the client within 3 to 5 business days from the date of physical sampling.
