(1) inform the lead workers, or any adult relatives of the property owner, of the occupant protection plan;

(2) make the occupant protection plan available according to part 4761.2610, subpart 1, item B; and

(3) give a copy of the occupant protection plan to an adult currently residing in the residence to inform the adult of the work areas that will not be accessible to occupants until lead clearance sample results are achieved.

E. The certified lead firm or the lead supervisor must provide copies of the plan to the person who contracted for the services.

F. Warning signs must plainly warn individuals that lead hazard reduction is in progress and not to enter. Signs must comply with Code of Federal Regulations, title 29, section 1926.62, paragraph (m).
