soil.

Most children who have elevated blood lead
levels do not have symptoms. You must have
your child tested to learn if yow: child is at
risk for hea!th problems related to lead poisoning.
Ho.v can cfildren gel" lead po[SOhlng? Most commonly, lead-based paint is the cause of lead poisoning. It may be found in older homes in NYC (especially those built before 1960). When this paint peels, or when it rubs against another surface, it.can break into paint chips or· crumble into dust Young children can swallow lead dust and paint chips when they put their fingers, toys, or pacifiers in their mouths. This normal hand to mouth behavior in children undt;r six makes them more lilcely to got lead polsoned.
Less commonly, lead that can cause lead poisoning also may be found in Water, dirt (soil). ttadltlonal medicines. cosmetics, cans, pottery and as a by-product of some adult occupations and hobbies.
SlrJufd your cWld be tested for lead poisoning? Yes. Your child's doctor must, by law, test your child at one and two years of age. Your child also
should be tested at any other time between six months and six years of age when your doctor has determine-d .that your child is at risk for lead poisoning. You should inform your doctor if you reside in a home with peeling paint that may
contain lead or think that your child may have been exposed to some other lead hazard.

• Ask you if a child under six, years of age resides in your home when you fitst sign or renew a lease or move into the apartment. The lan~lord will keep this on record.
• Send you a notice once a year (like the one you recicve for window guards) asking you if a child under six years of age resides in the home. • VISually inspect your apattrnent once a year if
a child under six years of age resides in your home.

• Put their hands or other objects <overed with lead dust In their mouths.
• Eat paint chips or soil that contain lead.
• Breathe in lead dust (especially durtng renovations that disturb painted surfaces) .
Lead is even more dangerous to children than adults because:
• Babies and young children often put their hands and other objects in their mouths. These objects can have lead dust on them.
• Children'S growing bodies absorb more· lead.
• Children's brains and nervous systems are more sensitive to the damaging effeds of lead.

.. In homes In the city, country, or suburbs.
• In apartments, single-family homes, and both ptlvate and public hou$lng.

o
any sour<;es of serious lead exposure . (such as peeling paint and lead dust}. It also tens you what actions to take to address these hazards.
Have' qualified professionals do the work. Thefederal government Is.writing standards for inspectors and risk assessors. Some st~es mlgh~ already have standards in place Call your siate agency for help with loqrting qualified professionals In your area'(see page 12).
1l'alned professionals use a range of methods when checking your home, Including:

• Lab tests of paint sampl~.
+ Surface dust tests.
+ A portable x-ray fluorescence machine.
Home test kits for lead are avaIlable. but the federal gOvernment is still testing therr reliability. These tests should not be the on Iy method uSed before doing renovations or to assure safety.
