LEAD -BASED PAINT
Adapted from http: //www.epa.gov/lead /pubs /renovation.htm. Please use that site to access the following information.
Information for Property Owners of Rental Housing, Child- Occupied Facilities
Property owners who renovate, repair, or prepare surfaces for painting in pre -1978 rental housing or space
rented by child -care facilities must, before beginning work, provide tenants with a copy of EPA's lead hazard
information pamphlet Renovate Right: Important Lead Hazard Information for Families, Child Care Providers,
and Scho is. Owners of these rental properties must document compliance with this requirement. EPA's sample
pre- renovation disclosure form may be used for this purpose.
After April 22, 2010, property owners who perform these projects in pre -1978 rental housing or space rented
by child -care facilities must be certified and follow the lead -safe work practices required by EPA's Renovation,
Repair and Remodeling rule. To become certified, property owners must submit an application for firm
certification and fee payment to EPA. The Agency has up to 90 days after receiving a complete request for
certification to approve or disapprove the application.
Property owners who perform renovation, repairs, and painting jobs in rental property should also:
• Take training to learn how to perform lead -safe work practices.
• Learn the lead laws that apply regarding certification and lead -safe work practices beginning in April 2010.
• Keep records to demonstrate that you and your workers have been trained in lead -safe work practices and that you followed lead -
safe work practices on the job. To make recordkeeping easier, you may use the sample recordkeeping checklist that EPA has
developed to help contractors comply with the renovation recordkeeping requirements that took effect April 2010.
• Read about how to comply with EPA's rule in the EPA Small Entity Compliance Guide to Renovate Right.
• Read about how to use lead -safe work practices in EPA's Steps to Lead Safe Renovation, Repair and Painting.
Information for Homeowners Working at Home
If you are a homeowner performing renovation, repair, or painting work in your own home, EPA's RRP rule does not cover your project.
However, you have the ultimate responsibility for the safety of your family or children in your care. If you are living in a pre -1978 home
and planning to do painting or repairs, please read a copy of EPA's Renovate Right: Important Lead Hazard Information for Families, Child
Care Providers, and Schools lead hazard information pamphlet. You may also want to call the National Lead Information Center at 1 -800-
424 -LEAD (5323) and ask for more information on how to work safely in a home with lead -based paint.
Information for Tenants and Families of Children under Age 6 in Child Care Facilities and Schools
As a tenant or a parent or guardian of children in a child care facility or school, you should know your rights when a renovation job is
performed in your home, or in the child care facility or school that your child attends.
• Before starting a renovation in residential buildings built before 1978, the contractor or property owner is required to have tenants
sign a pre- renovation disclosure form, which indicates that the tenant received the Renovate Right lead hazard information
pamphlet.
• Beginning in December 2008, the contractor must also make renovation information available to the parents or guardians of
children under age six that attend child care facilities and schools, and to provide to owners and administrators of pre -1978 child
care facilities and schools to be renovated a copy of EPA's Renovate Right: Important Lead Hazard Information for Families Child
Care Providers, and Schools lead hazard information pamphlet.
Information for Contractors
As a contractor, you play an important role in helping to prevent lead exposure. Ordinary renovation and maintenance activities can create
dust that contains lead. By following the lead -safe work practices, you can prevent lead hazards. Contractors who perform renovation,
repairs, and painting jobs in pre -1978 housing and child- occupied facilities must, before beginning work, provide owners, tenants, and
child -care facilities with a copy of EPA's lead hazard information pamphlet Renovate Right: Important Lead Hazard Information for Families,
Child Care Providers, and Schools. Contractors must document compliance with this requirement. EPA's pre - renovation disclosure form may
be used for this purpose. Understand that after April 22, 2010, federal law will require you to be certified and to use lead -safe work
practices. To become certified, renovation contractors must submit an application and fee payment to EPA. See: Application for firm
certification. The Agency has up to 90 days after receiving a complete request for certification to approve or disapprove the application.
Contractors who perform renovation, repairs, and painting jobs should also:
• Take training to learn how to perform lead -safe work practices.
• Find a training provider that has been accredited by EPA to provide training for renovators under EPA's Renovation, Repair,
and Painting (RRP) Program. Please note that if you previously completed an eligible renovation training course you may
take the 4 -hour refresher course instead of the 8 -hour initial course from an accredited training provider to become a
certified renovator. Click here for a list of eligible courses.
• Provide a copy of your EPA or state lead training certificate to your client.
• Tell your client what lead -safe methods you will use to perform the job.
• Learn the lead laws that apply to you regarding certification and lead -safe work practices beginning in April 2010.
• Ask your client to share the results of any previously conducted lead tests.
• Provide your client with references from at least three recent jobs involving homes built before 1978.
• Keep records to demonstrate that you and your workers have been trained in lead -safe work practices and that you followed lead -
safe work practices on the job. To make recordkeeping easier, you may use the sample recordkeeping checklist that EPA has
developed to help contractors comply with the renovation recordkeeping requirements.
• Read about how to comply with EPA's rule in the EPA Small Entity Compliance Guide to Renovate Right.

Permit Acknowledgement of
Asbestos/Environmental Notification to Georgia EPD for
Projects Involving Demolition, Wrecking, or Renovation
The undersigned hereby acknowledges that the issuance of this permit does not in any way grant
permission to the owner, owner's representative, or permit holder to proceed with demolition,
wrecking, or renovation of a structure prior to the filing of any required ten (10) day "Project
Notification for Asbestos Renovation Encapsulation or Demolition" form in accordance with
the Georgia Asbestos Rules. The Georgia Environmental Protection Division administers the
rules. In most cases, the rules require both the owner and the involved contractors to assure the
portion of the building involved in the project is thoroughly inspected by an Accredited Asbestos
Inspector for materials that contain asbestos; and the removal of the asbestos before renovation,
wrecking, or demolition begins almost without exemption. Georgia EPD requires a completed
demolition notification from be submitted 10 workings days in advance even if no asbestos is
present in the building. Further guidance for regulatory compliance and contact telephone
numbers are provided by the brochures entitled Asbestos & Renovation and Asbestos and
Demolition. Other environmental issues such as asbestos removal techniques, lead abatement,
ground contamination, or unusual site conditions may have EPD regulations that could affect the
project.

The following deficiencies have reached an unacceptable level on the projects in the City of Tybee
Island. While the deficiencies are not necessarily the fault of the Owner or his agent, they are their
responsibilities. The two areas of deficiencies are in the two most basic and common BMPs on local
projects. They are:
Co — Construction Exit
Sdl — Sediment Barrier
Correct installation information can be found not only in the "Green Book" but in the Field Manual for
Erosion and Sediment Control in Georgia, Fourth Edition 2002, 4310 Lexington Road, P.O. Box 8024,
Athens, GA 30603, telephone 706.542.3065, N‘ww.gasncc.org, Georgia Soil and Water Conservation
Commission; http: /hv-wv\,.gaswcc.org /does/
tield_manual 4ed.pdf.
Problems with the Co is not limited to the installation, but to the material. Specifically, the job site
personnel are telling me the stone delivered is the 1.5 " -3.5" stone they requested. I have experienced on
my own projects suppliers not adhering to the specs they are given with the orders. While I regret this
situation, I will no longer be accepting any deviation from the State requirements. The stone will be a
representation of 1.5 " -3.5" stone or larger. Gradations that are obviously smaller will no longer be
tolerated. The smaller stone allows for a smoother surface with smaller voids, thereby reducing the
function of the construction exit.
Similarly, I am finding Type A sediment barriers installed where Type C is required and shown on the
permit drawings. I have attempted to work with the Owners through increased inspections, additional
backup BMPs, etc. This has evidently become common knowledge based on the installations I am
finding. Where two rows are called for they will be installed with a separation that allows for the first one
to fail (fall over) without impacting the second one. The complete assembly and installation must be
compliant; steel or wood posts, post spacing, Type C or A.
There has been no discharge into state waters due to previous occasional deficiencies. However, the
increased frequency has created unnecessary exposure to:
1) Sediment discharge into nearby waters of the State,
2) Increased maintenance efforts by the DPW on downstream lines.
3) Due to #2, higher cost to island taxpayers.
I will be adhering strictly to the manual on all BMPs and not just these two.

property onto the property of another person, unless such storm water naturally
flowed thereon prior to any development activity.
(5.) It is unlawful for any person to interrupt the flow of any storm water runoff from
adjacent property onto their property by any development activity.
As part of the City's approval process applicants must illustrate how these storm water
management prohibitions will be met, including a showing of how storm water naturally flowed
on the affected property (prior to any development activity), and what changes in storm water
flow have occurred or are expected to occur, as attachments to this form. The City's approval or
permit does not guarantee that the applicant's plans will result in meeting requirements. The final
product must actually meet the City Ordinance requirements.

Noise sensitive area means any area designated for the purpose of ensuring exceptional quiet and clearly posted with "noise sensitive area"
signs, because of the noise sensitive activities conducted therein.
Person means any individual, partnership, firm, association, joint venture, public or private corporation, trust, estate, commission, board,
public or private institution, utility, operative, state agency, municipality or other political subdivisions of this state, any interstate body, or
any other legal entity.
Powered model vehicle means any self - propelled airborne, waterborne, or land borne model plane, vessel, or vehicle, which is not
designed to carry persons, including, but not limited to any model airplane, boat, car or rocket.
Public right -of -way means any street, avenue, boulevard, highway, sidewalk, lane or similar place which is owned or controlled by a
governmental entity.
Public space means any real property, including any structure thereon, which is owned or controlled by a governmental entity.
Pure tone means any sound which can be distinctly heard as a single pitch or a set of single pitches.
Real property boundary means an imaginary line along the ground surface, and its vertical extension, which separates the real property
owned by one person from that owned by another person, but not including intra- building real property divisions.
Receiving land use means the use or occupancy of the property from which a complaint is made concerning noise which received the
transmission of sound as hereinafter defined, however, the allowable decibel levels are based on the zoning district as opposed to the use of
the receiving land.
Recreational vehicle means any race car, motorcycle, or any other motorized vehicle equipped for use in racing or other recreational events
or uses off of public rights -of -way on public or private property.
Residential means any property on which is located a building or structure used wholly or partially for living or sleeping purposes.
Sound means an oscillation in pressure, particle displacement, particle velocity or other physical parameter, in a medium with internal
forces that cause compression and rarefaction of that medium. The description of sound may include any characteristic of such sound,
including duration, intensity and frequency.
Sound level means the weighted sound pressure level obtained by the use of a sound level meter and frequency weighting network, such as
A, B, or C as specified in American National Standards Institute Specifications for Sound Level Meters (ANSI S1.41971, or the latest
approved revision thereof). If the frequency weighting employed is not indicated, the A- weighting shall apply.
Sound level meter means an instrument which includes a microphone, amplifier, RMS detector, integrator or time average, output or
display meter, and weighting networks used to measure sound pressure levels, which complies with American National Standards Institute
Standard 1.4 -1971 as revised.
Sound pressure means the instantaneous difference between the actual pressure and the average or barometric pressure at a given point in
space, as produced by sound energy.
Used and occupied mean and include the words "intended," "designed," or "arranged to be used or occupied."
(Code 1983, § 11 -3 -2)
Sec. 22 -111. Exceptions.
The provisions of this article shall not apply to:
(1) The emission of sound for the purpose of alerting persons to the existence of an emergency.
(2) The emission of sound in the performance of emergency work.
(3) Agricultural activities, exclusive of those involving the ownership or possession of animals or birds.
(4) Public mass transportation vehicles.
(5) Church or clock carillons, bells, or chimes.
(6) The emission of sound in the discharge of weapons or in fireworks displays for which a permit has been issued.
(7) Public works projects specifically approved by the mayor and council.
(Code 1983, § 11 -3 -3)
Sec. 22 -112. Noise disturbance prohibited.
(a) Prohibited. No person shall make, continue, or cause to be made or continued, except as permitted, any noise disturbance, or any
noise in excess of the limits for such noise established in this section.
(b) Maximum permissible sound levels. With the exception of sound levels elsewhere specifically authorized by this article, table I sets
forth the maximum permissible sound levels allowed at or within the real property boundary of a receiving land use. Any activity or use
that produces a sound in excess of such noise levels for a receiving land use shall be deemed a noise disturbance and is in violation of this
article.
(c) Measurement of sound. The measurement of sound or noise shall be made with a sound level meter meeting the standards prescribed
by the American National Standards Institute or its successor body. The instrument shall be maintained in calibration and good working
order. Octave band corrections may be employed in meeting the response specification. A calibration check shall be made of the system at
the time of any noise measurement. Measurements recorded shall be taken so as to provide a proper representation of the noise source. The
microphone used during measurement shall be positioned so as not to create any unnatural enhancement or diminution of the measured
noise. A windscreen for the microphone shall be used when required. Traffic, other transportation noise sources and other background
noises shall not be considered in taking measurements except where such background noise interferes with the primary noise being
measured. It is the intention that this sound to be measured is what is being created by the sound complained of excluding intruding noises
from isolated identifiable sources, but including ambient sound level. The measure of all sound levels shall be made as close to the property
line of the receiving land use as is practical.
