EPA Requests Information on Costs of Lead Regulation Implementation
February 25, 2011The Environmental Protection Agency has issued an Information Collection Request (ICR) on field implementation costs of compliance training and certification under the Lead: Renovation, Repair and Painting (LRRP) rule. All responses must be submitted no later than March 28, 2011.
View the original labor and cost burdens projected by EPA in developing the LRRP rule.
Specifically, the EPA is soliciting comments and input on the items provided below.
- Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Agency, including whether the information will have practical utility.
- Evaluate the accuracy of the Agency’s estimates of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used.
- Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected.
- Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. In particular, EPA is requesting comments from very small businesses (those that employ less than 25) on examples of specific additional efforts that EPA could make to reduce the paperwork burden for very small businesses affected by this collection.
Review the ICR for complete information on the EPA request and details on how to submit your response.
