NOTE TO SCOPE OF WORK EDITOR:
This standard scope of work (SOW) defines lead hazard clearance following lead
hazard control activities (see Glossary) at Department of Army (DA) target housing or
child-occupied facilities (see Glossary). The Scope-of-Work Editor must have
completed the training required for risk assessors defined in EPA 40 Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) 745 Subpart L "Lead-Based Paint Activities" prior to editing this
SOW for the lead hazard clearance projects.
This SOW does not define lead hazard clearance for non-target housing projects.
Clearance requirements for non-target housing/child occupied facilities are to be found
in the design specifications for those projects. Risk assessor training is recommended,
but not required for developing project specific clearance criteria to be used for non-
target housing specifications.
This SOW incorporates 40 CFR 745 Subpart L requirements for clearance using the
sampling protocol found both in 40 CFR 745.227 and developed by the Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for target housing.
The SOW does not include unique clearance procedures for facilities involved in child
elevated blood lead level (EBL) issues. Elevated blood lead evaluations address lead
sources to children such as contaminated eating utensils, food and beverage containers,
personal hygiene practices, offsite daycare, community water supply, public
playgrounds, etc. EBL evaluations require coordinated professional resources involving
a number of agencies, including state and local public health departments.
