This annual paper summarizes and tracks environmental, health and safety issues that may impact painting contactors and facility owners. This paper summarizes regulatory, and enforcement develops in the current year and reviews expected rulemaking for the coming year. Specific topics include OSHA’s proposed update to the Hazard Communications standard and the anticipated Silica rule in 2011. We will review new actions related to EPA’s NAAQS Lead standard and other EPA regulations. Most of the information is taken directly from the respective agency’s published regulatory agenda, supplemented by anecdotal information gathered from various professional journals, seminars and conferences.
With the success of the SSPC painting contractor certification programs (PCCP) and increasing Owner requirements for both quality control (QC) by the contractor and quality assurance (QA) by third party inspectors, there is more confusion than ever over which types of inspections, and to what level of detail, should be performed by whom.

The construction industry has struggled to fully embrace the philosophy of defect prevention rather than detection as a quality objective. Quality is more often discussed in sales presentations and marketing literature than in strategic plans or board meetings. This paper explores quality principles and methodologies employed in the manufacturing industry over the past twenty years that have resulted in measurable performance improvements yet are not adopted by the construction industry.
Traditional coating systems for steel have often used a sacrificial primer, barrier coat and topcoat, to provide good UV resistance and appearance. One fundamental problem with all organic coating systems is that there will always be some permeation through the coating. These systems are therefore sacrificial in nature and have a finite life. The use of multi-coat systems also dramatically increases application time, presenting problems both for new construction and maintenance projects.
