Abstract Several control technologies surveys were conducted to assess the efficiency of techniques used to reduce exposures to lead (7439921) (Pb) in lead reprocessing operations (SIC-3341). An evaluation of the central vacuum system at the Tonolli North America facility in Nesquehoning, Pennsylvania and the General Battery Corporation (GBC) installations in Reading and Hamburg, Pennsylvania, was evaluated. Studies were made of the effectiveness of emission controls on the tuyere nozzles of the blast furnaces at the East Penn Manufacturing Company's Pb smelter in Lyon Station, Pennsylvania. An evaluation was made of pavement cleaning equipment and methods as a means of reducing Pb exposure at the Lyon Station smelter of the East Penn Manufacturing Company. All the techniques and methods were found to be effective in reducing Pb exposure.
