Lead Abatement Supervisor

This entails having a separate license but a definition should be included. Abatement means performing a permanent solution to a lead hazard. The Lead Risk Assessor locates the lead in the home, while the Lead Abatement Supervisor discards the lead safely and properly. As a licensed Lead Abatement Supervisor, I am responsible for the removal, replacement, encapsulation, enclosure or the stabilization of lead hazards in your home as recommended by a Lead Risk Assessor. It must be noted that stabilization is not an abatement procedure but is an interim control. Also, the mere presence of lead in a house does not itself constitute a hazard; the condition of the lead surface determines that. You'll notice that I am both a licensed Lead Risk Assessor and a licensed Lead Abatement Supervisor, and, in order to avoid any potential conflicts of interest, we cannot perform both tasks at any one specific job location.
