The lead compliance program description of the means of achieving compliance with the applicable permissible exposure limit did not detail the engineering plans and studies used to determine the specific engineering and work practice control methods selected for controlling the employees' airborne lead exposures; 3. The lead compliance program did not include a report of the specific technology considered in trying to meet the permissible exposure limit; 4. The lead compliance program air monitoring data did not document the specific lead-emission sources for each employee in the airborne lead exposure areas; 5. The lead compliance program did not include a detailed schedule for implementation of the exposure control program or improvements, modifications, and upgrades in the exposure control program, including documentation such as copies of purchase orders for equipment, construction contracts, etc.; 6. The lead compliance program did not completely nor sufficiently detail the specifics of the written work practice control program by each department with airborne lead exposures above the applicable permissible exposure limit that would be used to satisfy the requirements of 29 CFR Part 1910.1025(g) personal protective equipment provision, use, and care, (h) lead housekeeping schedules, methods, and practices, and (i) hygiene facilities and practices required and provided to reduce the employees' airborne and surface lead exposures; 7. The lead compliance program did not detail an administrative control schedule that would be used to reduce the employees' airborne lead exposures in each department with airborne lead exposures over the applicable permissible exposure limit. Abatement certification required within 10 days after abatement date. The certification shall include a statement that abatement is complete, date and method of abatement, and states employees and their representatives were informed of this abatement.
