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 p.esence 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 andlor 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. 1019 Nebraska St EBL INVESTIGATION POST INSPECTION LETTER rev 10-02 � . .t` ROOM AREA TESTED POSITNE CLEARANCE TESTING REQUIRED Bedroom #1 Window sill Yes Window sash Window casing � Window trough � Window stop ' Door casin Living room Window sill Yes Window casin Rear entry Siding Yes Door casin to laund ' Bathroom #1 Window trough Yes Window sto Kitchen Window sash Yes Window sill Window trough Window stop Door casin to stairs Bedroom #3 Window trough Yes : Window stop Door stop Door casin : Bedroom #4 Window sill Yes Door casin Front orch Post 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.

As an owner occupied home Oshkosh Health Services Division will allow you to do wet scraping and painting in your home providing you follow lead safe work practices. Section 15-25 of the Oshkosh Municipal Code requires an independent certified lead risk assessor and/or certified lead contractor to be hired to develop and submit a written lead hazard reduction plan, based on the results of the investigation. The plan for lead hazard reduction must be submitted to the Health Services Division within 30 days of receipt of this letter and needs to be approved prior to the start of any lead hazard reduction activities. Failure to comply may result in citations being issued to you. Please refer to Oshkosh Municipal Code, Section 15-29 for plan and certification requirements. For you convenience, a list of currently certified lead risk assessors and certified contractors are enclosed. 1019 Nebraska St EBL INVESTIGATION POST INSPECTION LETTER rev 10-02 . .. , y� It is important for you to understand that the testing performed on your property was not comprehensive. Our responsibiliry is to identify lead hazards that exist on the premises related to an EBL Investigation, not to do a complete analysis of every painted surface in the home. Our inspection focused on those areas most commonly found to contain lead bearing paint/varnish and areas in disrepair. Any area not specifically mentioned in this report would be your responsibility to , have tested, if necessary, in the future to determine if it contains lead bearing paint/varnish. Please = note that compliance with the above orders may not be sufficient to meet the standards to obtain a� lead-safe certificate in the future.
