Changes to the Ambient Air Lead Standard – Obtaining Valid Results

The current National Ambient Air Quality Standards (40 CFR parts 50, 51, 53 and 58) for lead were published in 1978 to protect the public from the adverse health effects caused by lead. On May 20, 2008 the EPA published proposed changes to the NAAQS for lead; the final rule was published on October 15, 2008. These changes will affect the ambient air monitoring protocols required on industrial painting projects. This paper will focus on the practicalities of obtaining valid data from TSP-lead air monitors.
