Which activity is NOT a part of the lead abatement process?

The activity that is not part of the lead abatement process is the assessment of local regulations. Lead abatement focuses on specific actions to reduce lead hazards, such as removing lead paint, cleaning lead dust, and conducting final inspections to ensure that the lead hazards have been effectively eliminated.

While understanding local regulations is crucial for compliance and guiding the abatement activities, it does not directly contribute to the physical process of lead abatement itself. Instead, this assessment occurs during the planning stage to ensure all procedures align with legal requirements and safety standards. Therefore, while it is an important preparatory step, it is not an active component of the lead abatement process.
