DEFINITIONS
 
Lead-Based Paint Activities (LBP)  These services performed in target housing and child-occupied facilities are provided by certified inspection and abatement companies.  All Department of Commerce certified individuals are issued a certificate and identification badge and you may request to see this documentation before starting your project.  Activities that each certified lead based paint discipline may perform are:

Inspector: inspections and clearance testing only.

Risk Assessor:  inspections, clearance testing, lead hazards screens and risk assessments.

Supervisor:  supervision of abatement projects, preparation of occupant protection plans, abatement reports, and all abatement activities that may be performed by abatement workers.

Worker:  abatement activities under the direction of certified abatement supervisor.



Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP)  Firms performing renovation, repair, and painting projects that disturb lead-based paint in pre-1978 homes, child care facilities and schools, must be certified by the Department of Commerce and use certified renovators who are trained by an approved training provider to follow lead-safe work practices. 

 
RENOVATOR:  either performs or directs workers who perform renovations.
 
DUST SAMPLING TECHNICIAN:  may perform optional dust clearance sampling for renovation activities.
