April 2004 EPA published a final rule that establishes notification procedures for certified lead abatement professionals and accredited training programs. The rule requires that EPA be notified in the following situations: 1) prior to the commencement of lead-based paint abatement activities, 2) prior to providing initial or refresher lead-based paint activities training courses, and 3) following completion of lead-based paint activities training courses. This rule applies only in States and Tribal areas that do not have authorized programs pursuant to 40 CFR 745.324

EPA has now made available, new interpretive guidance for the lead-based paint training and certification program (402/404). Topics covered include: applicability to U.S. military bases/facilities outside U.S. borders; certification requirements for Federal agencies that conduct certain lead-based paint activities; and clarifying the regulatory implications of testing for lead paint versus performing a lead-based paint inspection. A complete list of topics are located at http://www.epa.gov/opptintr/lead/iglist.htm
