The purpose of the EBL Investigation was to determine and report the existence, nature, and location of lead hazards in or on the premises, as it relates to a confirmed elevated blood lead level in a child who resides at this address. Chapter 15 of the Municipal Code allows the Health Services Division to conduct an EBL Investigation at the premises where a child, six years of age or younger, who has been lead poisoned resides. The presence of lead bearing paint/varnish on surfaces of a premise may constitute a health hazard especially for children under age seven. Ingestion of lead bearing paint/varnish dust and/or chips are the most common causes of childhood lead poisoning. When lead bearing painted and/or varnished surfaces are peeling, flaking, chipping, subject to friction, or cracking, they present potential health hazards. The continuous intake of lead into the body may cause developmental delays, hyperactivity, behavior disorders, hearing loss, anemia, growth failure, neurological problems, mental retardation, and in rare cases even death. A visual assessment plus nondestructive lead testing was conducted on painted and/or varnished surfaces at the above premises using a portable x-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzer and/or lead check swabs. In some cases, paint chips, dust, and/or soil samples may have been submitted for analysis. A copy of the complete EBL Investigation results are enclosed. The investigation indicated the presence of lead hazards at this premise. The following areas have been determined to be a lead hazard, that is, they contain lead bearing paint and/or varnish and are in disrepair due to cracking, chipping, peeling and/or are subject to friction and are in need of lead hazard reduction activities, per Section 15-25 of the Oshkosh Municipal Code. 906 Winnebago AveEBL INVESTIGATION POST INSPECTION LETTER rev 05 07 Stairway Window well Window well Exterior window stop Exterior window sash Window sill Window sash Window casin Window sill Window sash Window casing Window well Window exterior sto Window well Exterior sto Window sash Front entry door painted exterior Front entry door threshold Front entry exterior door stop Exterior trim Exterior siding Exterior shake sidin Half bath Kitchen Bedroom # 1 U er bath Exterior Oshkosh Health Services Division assumes that areas of a property that appear to have the same paint history will test the same, therefore areas that have the same colored paint and are in similar condition will require abatement.
