| 06-71 | Lead; Renovation, Repair, and Painting Program | Proposed Rule | EPA is proposing new requirements to reduce exposure to lead hazards created by renovation, repair, and painting activities that disturb lead-based paint. This action supports the attainment of the Federal government's goal of eliminating childhood lead poisoning by 2010. The proposal would establish requirements for training renovators and dust sampling technicians; certifying renovators, dust sampling technicians, and renovation firms; accrediting providers of renovation and dust sampling technician training; and for renovation work practices. These requirements would apply in "target housing," defined in section 401 of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) as any housing constructed before 1978, except housing for the elderly or persons with disabilities (unless any child under age 6 resides or is expected to reside in such housing) or any 0-bedroom dwelling. Initially the rule would apply to all renovations for compensation performed in target housing where a child with an increased blood lead level resides, rental target housing built before 1960 and owner- occupied target housing built before 1960, unless, with respect to owner-occupied target housing, the person performing the renovation obtains a statement signed by the owner-occupant that the renovation will occur in the owner's residence and that no child under age 6 resides there. EPA is proposing to phase in the applicability of this proposal to all rental target housing and owner-occupied target housing built in the years 1960 through 1977 where a child under age 6 resides. This proposal is issued under the authority of TSCA section 402(c)(3). EPA is also proposing to allow interested States, Territories, and Indian Tribes the opportunity to apply for and receive authorization to administer and enforce all of the elements of the new renovation provisions. | 2006-01-10 | 2006 | 1 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2006/01/10/06-71/lead-renovation-repair-and-painting-program | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2006-01-10/pdf/06-71.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | EPA is proposing new requirements to reduce exposure to lead hazards created by renovation, repair, and painting activities that disturb lead-based paint.
