EPA Issues New Rule on Lead Safety during Renovation 

EPABeginning in December 2008, the rule will require that contractors performing renovation, repair and painting projects that disturb lead-based paint provide the Renovate Right: Important Lead Hazard Information for Families, Child Care Providers, and Schools to owners and occupants of child care facilities and to parents and guardians of children under age six that attend child care facilities built prior to 1978.

The rule will affect paid renovators who work in pre-1978 housing and child-occupied facilities, including:
  • Renovation contractors
  • Maintenance workers in multi-family housing
  • Painters and other specialty trades.

Under the rule, child-occupied facilities are defined as residential, public or commercial buildings where children under age six are present on a regular basis. The requirements apply to renovation, repair or painting activities. The rule does not apply to minor maintenance or repair activities where less than six square feet of lead-based paint is disturbed in a room or where less then 20 square feet of lead-based paint is disturbed on the exterior. Window replacement is not minor maintenance or repair.
