        <RULE_TITLE>Lead; Clearance and Clearance Testing Requirements for the Renovation, Repair, and Painting Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA intends to propose several revisions to the 2008 Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting Program (RRP) rule that established accreditation, training, certification, and recordkeeping requirements as well as work practice standards for persons performing renovations for compensation in most pre-1978 housing and child-occupied facilities. Current requirements include training renovators, other renovation workers, and dust sampling technicians; for certifying renovators, dust sampling technicians, and renovation firms; for accrediting providers of renovation and dust sampling technician training; for renovation work practices; and for recordkeeping. EPA is particularly concerned about dust lead hazards generated by renovations because children, especially younger children, are at risk for high exposures of lead-based paint dust via hand-to-mouth exposure. For this particular action, EPA will consider whether to establish additional requirements to ensure that renovation work areas are adequately cleaned after renovation work is finished and before the areas are re-occupied. These additional requirements may include dust wipe testing after renovations and ensuring that renovation work areas meet clearance standards before re-occupancy.]]></ABSTRACT>
