Leadbased paint has become a national issue and will continue to be a hi priority focus ofnational, state, and local agencies until there is no leadbased paint in the United States. Leadbased paint has become a tremendous health hazard for people and animals. Leadbased paint has been in widespread use throughout Europe and the United States. Lead has been known to be a health hazard since the time ofPliny the Elder (A. D. 2379), but it was deemed that the advantages of lead in paint outweighed the health hazards. There has been a change in outlook, and in 1973 the U. S. Congress banned all lead paint from residential structures. A voluminous number of law suits have been initiated since, and continue to be litigated with the purpose of determining the parties responsible for the lead poisoning of children and others and to exact the indemnities. Leadbased paint is still authorized for use on bridges and nonresidential structures, and thousands of city, state, military, and federal government housing projects still contain leadbased paint. This paint must be removed if these dwellings are to be safe living quarters, especially for children. Aba ment techniques continue to be evaluated; some have been used successfully. Leadbased paint abatement will continue into the next century, and it is hoped that this comprehensive volume will serve as a guide for those seriously interested in this important subject.
