A property owner had been managing the risk of exposure to lead through a workplace protocol known as a lead dust management plan (LDMP). The contaminated dust was in ceiling cavities and there was potential for various contractors to encounter the dust during general maintenance activities. The owner was concerned about the effectiveness of this LDMP and faced the prospect of a costly and disruptive remediation project.
QED Environmental Services (QED) was commissioned to conduct a desktop risk assessment involving the review of previous sampling reports. As you will read, QED determined that adopting a site specific approach to the issue resulted in an in-depth understanding of the relative risk of exposure to lead and was able to suggest critical controls. This also fruited secondary benefits of significant cost savings for the client, by adopting a staged risk assessment regime and resisting a large disruptive, and ultimately inconclusive, remediation project.
