Common Situations That Trigger a Sampling Call

If any of these describe your situation — you need sampling, not guesswork.

Pre-1978 renovation — RRP rule applies

Contractor must test before disturbing painted surfaces in pre-1978 housing or child-occupied facilities.

School or daycare drinking water

LCRR mandates testing all outlets — IRIS provides first-draw sampling service for schools and childcare facilities.

Construction workers on lead surfaces

OSHA 1926.62 requires air monitoring when workers may disturb lead-containing materials during demolition or abatement.

Post-abatement clearance required

HUD clearance exam: dust wipe sampling required before re-occupancy after any lead hazard reduction work.

Real estate transaction — NJ rental law

NJ P.L. 2021, c.182 requires lead sampling at tenant turnover for pre-1978 rentals.

Bare soil near older structures

Play area or bare soil near pre-1978 building — EPA soil lead limits apply (400 mg/kg play areas, 1,200 mg/kg non-play).
