right to exercise its enforcement 

authority under TSCA against a 

violation of, or a failure or refusal to 

comply with, any requirement of an 

authorized state program. 

V. Withdrawal of Authorization 

Pursuant to section 404(c) of TSCA, 

the EPA Administrator may withdraw 

authorization of a state or Indian Tribal 

renovation, repair and painting 

program, and/or a lead-based paint prerenovation education program, after 

notice and opportunity for corrective 

action, if the program is not being 

administered or enforced in compliance 

with standards, regulations, and other 

requirements established under the 

authorization. The procedures EPA will 

follow for the withdrawal of an 

authorization are found at 40 CFR 

745.324(i).
