Title:
Lead­
Based
Paint
Pre­
Renovation
Information
Dissemination
 
TSCA
Sec.
406(
b).
Abstract:
This
information
collection
involves
third­
party
notification
to
owners
and
occupants
of
housing
that
will
allow
these
individuals
to
avoid
exposure
to
lead­
contaminated
dust
and
lead­
based
paint
debris
that
are
sometimes
generated
during
renovations
of
housing
where
lead­
based
paint
is
present,
thereby
protecting
public
health.
Since
young
children
are
especially
susceptible
to
the
hazards
of
lead,
owners
and
occupants
with
children
can
take
action
to
protect
their
children
from
lead
poisonings.
Section
406(
b)
of
the
Toxic
Substances
Control
Act
(
TSCA)
requires
EPA
to
promulgate
regulations
requiring
certain
persons
who
perform
renovations
of
target
housing
for
compensation
to
provide
a
lead
hazard
information
pamphlet
(
developed
under
TSCA
section
406(
a))
to
the
owner
and
occupants
of
such
housing
prior
to
beginning
the
renovation.
Those
who
fail
to
provide
the
pamphlet
as
required
may
be
subject
to
both
civil
and
criminal
sanctions.
Responses
to
the
collection
of
information
are
mandatory
(
see
40
CFR
part
745,
subpart
E).
Respondents
may
claim
all
or
part
of
a
notice
as
CBI.
EPA
will
disclose
information
that
is
covered
by
a
CBI
claim
only
to
the
extent
permitted
by,
and
in
accordance
with,
the
procedures
in
40
CFR
part
2.

Notices
An
agency
may
not
conduct
or
sponsor,
and
a
person
is
not
required
to
respond
to,
a
collection
of
information
unless
it
displays
a
currently
valid
OMB
control
number.
The
OMB
control
numbers
for
EPA's
regulations
in
title
40
of
the
CFR,
after
appearing
in
the
Federal
Register,
are
listed
in
40
CFR
part
9
and
included
on
the
related
collection
instrument
or
form,
if
applicable.
Burden
Statement:
The
annual
public
reporting
and
recordkeeping
burden
for
this
collection
of
information
is
estimated
to
average
about
one
and
a
half
hours
per
response.
Burden
means
the
total
time,
effort
or
financial
resources
expended
by
persons
to
generate,
maintain,
retain
or
disclose
or
provide
information
to
or
for
a
Federal
agency.
This
includes
the
time
needed
to
review
instructions;
develop,
acquire,
install
and
utilize
technology
and
systems
for
the
purposes
of
collecting,
validating
and
verifying
information,
processing
and
maintaining
information,
and
disclosing
and
providing
information;
adjust
the
existing
ways
to
comply
with
any
previously
applicable
instructions
and
requirements;
train
personnel
to
be
able
to
respond
to
a
collection
of
information;
search
data
sources;
complete
and
review
the
collection
of
information;
and
transmit
or
otherwise
disclose
the
information.
Respondents/
Affected
Entities:
Persons
who
perform
renovations
of
certain
types
of
housing,
constructed
prior
to
1978,
for
compensation.
Frequency
of
Collection:
On
occasion.
Estimated
No.
of
Respondents:
2,482,000.
Estimated
Total
Annual
Burden
on
Respondents:
3,461,542
hours.
Estimated
Total
Annual
Costs:
$
111,929,595.
Changes
in
Burden
Estimates:
This
request
reflects
an
increase
of
522,996
hours
(
from
2,938,546
hours
to
3,461,542
hours)
in
the
total
estimated
respondent
burden
from
that
currently
in
the
OMB
inventory.
This
increase
is
due
to
an
increase
in
the
estimated
number
of
annual
renovation
events,
as
detailed
in
the
Supporting
Statement
for
this
ICR.
The
increased
number
of
renovation
events
is
the
result
of
increased
spending
on
renovations
and
reflects
a
general
economic
trend.
The
change
in
burden
represents
an
adjustment.
