Lead Paint Exposure Assessment in High Bays of Johnson Space Center

[摘要] This slide presentation reviews the program to assess the possibility of lead paint exposure in the high bays of some of the Johnson Space Center buildings.Some of the buildings in the Manned Space Flight Center (MSC) were built in 1962 and predate any considerations to reduce lead in paints and coatings.There are many of these older buildings that contain open shops and work areas that have open ceilings,These shops include those that had operations that use leaded gasoline, batteries, and lead based paints. Test were planned to be conducted in three phases:(1) Surface Dust sampling, (2) personal exposure montioring, and (3) Ceiling paint Sampling. The results of the first two phases were reviewed.After considering the results of the first two phases, and the problems associated with the retrieval of samples from high ceilings, it was determined that the evaluation of ceiling coatings would be done on a project by project and in response to a complaint.
