29 CFR 1910.1025(j)(1)(i): A medical surveillance program was not instituted for all employee(s) who were, or could be exposed to lead above the action level for more that thirty days per year. On or about August 17, 2018, and at times prior thereto, the employer did not institute a medical surveillance program for employees that were exposed to airborne concentrations of Lead at or above action level while working in the indoor firing ranges, exposing employees to an inhalation, absorption and ingestion hazards: a) Range worker(s) were exposed to Lead at an 8-hour Time Weighted Average (TWA) up to 1.669 milligrams per cubic meter of air, which is over 33 times the Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) of 50 micrograms per cubic meter of air. The exposure level is derived from a sample collected over a 455-minute period and the calculations include a zero value for the 25 minutes not sampled. b) Range worker(s) were exposed to Lead at an 8-hour TWA up to 1.151 milligrams per cubic meter of air, which is approximately 23 times the PEL of 50 micrograms per cubic meter of air. The exposure level is derived from a sample collected over a 413-minute period and the calculations include a zero value for the 67 minutes not sampled.
