Who is responsible for creating the hazard control plan?

The responsibility for creating the hazard control plan typically lies with both the risk assessor and the property owner. The risk assessor plays a crucial role in identifying the lead hazards present in a property and determining the necessary methods to mitigate those hazards. On the other hand, the property owner is essential in providing information about the premises and coordinating the implementation of the plan.

A collaborative approach ensures that the plan is comprehensive, incorporating scientific assessment and practical feasibility. By combining the expert analysis of the risk assessor with the local knowledge and authority of the property owner, the hazard control plan can be tailored effectively to address specific lead-related risks associated with the property. This partnership is essential for the successful management and reduction of lead hazards, ultimately protecting the health of occupants and ensuring compliance with regulations.
