In a comprehensive environmental study in Omaha, the blood lead of urban school children, all past the age of pica, showed significant correlations with exterior fallout Pb as measured in dustfall, soil and exterior dirt brought into the house, but little or no correlation with minor differences in air Pb over the seven months of the study with Pb in house dust, milk or water or the gross availability of flaking paint. 6 references, 2 figures, 7 tables.
