        <RULE_TITLE>Lead-Based Paint Program; Amendment to Jurisdictions and Renovator Refresher Training Requirements</RULE_TITLE>

<p>As noted in the Agency&rsquo;s July 2014 Executive Order 13563 Retrospective Regulatory Review Plan update,<strong>&nbsp;</strong>EPA is considering proposing several minor amendments to the EPA lead-based paint program that would improve efficiencies and save resources for those involved. For example, EPA is considering amending the renovation, repair and painting rule by removing the requirement for hands-on refresher training for renovators so that they can take the refresher course online and without the need to travel to a training facility for the hands-on portion. EPA is also considering amending the lead-based paint abatement program by removing the requirement for firms, training providers and individuals to apply for and be certified or accredited in each jurisdiction where they work (i.e., state, tribe or territory where EPA runs the abatement program). After years of implementing the abatement program, the Agency believes that jurisdictions are no longer needed. Eliminating jurisdictions would increase efficiencies for all involved, lower burden and costs for applicants and save EPA time processing applications.</p>
