**ACTION :**  Notice.

**SUMMARY :**  This notice announces the availability of the revised EPA National Lead Laboratory Accreditation Program (NLLAP) in the document titled

‘‘ Laboratory Quality System Requirements (LQSR) Revision 3.0 ’’ dated July 5, 2007. Revisions to the LQSR include the expansion of NLLAP to cover: (1) Lead laboratory analysis programs that conduct lead analysis for the field (Field Sampling and Measurement Organizations), and (2) revised training requirements for laboratory personnel. The Agency will phase-in LQSR 3.0 over the next 18 months.

**DATES :**  LQSR 3.0 will become effective July 23, 2009. In order to be recognized by the NLLAP, laboratories and accreditation organizations that currently administer the NLLAP may comply with the requirements of the LQSR 2.0 dated August 1, 1996, or LQSR 3.0 dated July 5, 2007. After, July 23, 2009 all NLLAP recognized organizations must implement and comply with the requirements of LQSR
3.0.

I. General Information

A. Does this Action Apply to Me?

You might potentially be affected by this action if you are or may be required to follow the Agency ’ s regulations regarding testing for lead. Specifically, entities potentially affected by these revisions are Fixed-Site, Mobile, and Field Sampling and Measurement Organizations (FSMOs) that perform lead testing. Analytical testing laboratories currently recognized by the NLLAP, and accreditation organizations that currently administer the NLLAP (i.e., the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) and the American Association for Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA)) or other organizations that might seek a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Agency to become an accreditation organization could be affected by today ’ s revisions. In addition, certified inspectors, certified risk assessors, developers, manufacturers, distributors of equipment and supplies used by FSMOs testing lead might also be affected by these revisions; and EPA-authorized state and tribal lead-based paint training and certification programs may also be affected by these revisions.

Other entities potentially affected by changes to the NLLAP for lead testing are the owners and managers of target housing and child-occupied facilities, as well as realtors, lessees, and residents, who ultimately pay for the testing services and stand to benefit by obtaining lead test results quicker.

Since other entities may also be interested, the Agency has not attempted to describe all of the specific entities that may be affected by this notice. If you have any questions regarding the applicability of this notice to a particular entity, consult the technical person listed under **FOR FURTHER**  **INFORMATION CONTACT**

. The Agency is announcing changes to NLLAP to encourage the recognition of all lead testing service providers (e.g., FSMOs) and to bring the NLLAP into compliance with current consensus standards (e.g., American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), American National Standards Institute (ANSI), and International Organization for Standardization (ISO)). This may, in turn, increase lead testing options, reduce costs, and save time for those who purchase analytical services related to lead hazard identification and control.

III. What Action is the Agency Taking?

The Agency made these revisions to the NLLAP to provide a vehicle and remove barriers so that all types of lead testing service providers could participate in the NLLAP. These changes also provide the tools for smaller lead testing organizations to obtain NLLAP recognition. Also these revisions are making the NLLAP more efficient and cost-effective while maintaining the high standard of quality, science and technology necessary to ensure public health protection in supporting EPA and U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) lead regulations.

Environmental protection, Lead testing accreditation, National Lead Laboratory Accreditation Program (NLLAP), Laboratory Quality System Requirements (LQSR).
