How far away should moveable items outside be placed to ensure safety?

For ensuring safety around lead-safe work practices, moveable items outside should be placed at least 20 feet away from the work area. This distance is crucial for preventing the contamination of surrounding areas with lead dust or debris, which can be hazardous to health, particularly for children and pregnant women. Establishing a safe perimeter helps minimize exposure risks and maintains a clean environment during lead remediation activities. Additionally, keeping items further away ensures that the work area remains clear can facilitate easier access for workers to manage and monitor the hazard more effectively.
