NARI NEWSFLASH - EPA Delays Enforcement of LRRP Rule to Oct. 1, 2010
The EPA announced today a delay in the enforcement of the LRRP rule. The agency acknowledged the need for additional time for renovation firms and workers to become trained and certified under the new Lead Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP) Rule.

The rule took effect April 22, but the EPA today announced it is delaying enforcement, acknowledging concerns raised by the NARI and other allied organizations.

Specifics:

Until Oct. 1, 2010, the EPA will not take enforcement action for violations of the RRP Rule’s firm certification requirement.

For violations of the RRP Rule’s renovation worker certification requirement, the EPA will not enforce against individual renovation workers if the person has applied to enroll in, or has enrolled in, by no later than Sept. 30, 2010, a certified renovator class to train contractors in practices necessary for compliance with the final rules. Renovators must complete the training by Dec. 31, 2010.

The official announcement by the EPA can be downloaded here.

NARI continues to have concerns about new proposals from the EPA on clearance testing and you can see NARI’s letter to the EPA here.

NARI continues to work on your behalf to find ways to lessen the detrimental impact legislation may have on your businesses.

Sincerely,

Your NARI Leadership
