Lead abatement eliminates lead hazards in paint, soil, dust, and sometimes household plumbing. Some lead abatement activities include replacing windows, doors, and other housing components. To perform lead abatement work in Michigan, professionals must hold a Lead Abatement Firm certification. Each firm must employ at least one Lead Abatement Supervisor and as many Lead Abatement Workers as necessary. Project Designers prepare lead abatement project designs, occupant protection plans, and lead abatement reports.
