Notice of Submission of Proposed
Information Collection to OMB
Collection of Information From HUD
Lead Hazard Control Grantees To
Support a Review of the Federal Dustlead Standards
Office of the Chief Information
Officer, HUD.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:

The proposed information
collection requirement described below
has been submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review, as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act. The Department is
soliciting public comments on the
subject proposal.
Leaded paint in housing remains as
the last major source of lead exposure to
young children. Efforts to reduce
childhood lead poisoning have focused
on controlling lead paint hazards,
specifically lead dust and deteriorated
lead-based paint. Lead hazard control
programs are looking for ways to make
this housing safer without placing an
undue financial burden on the property
owners or tenants. On August 10, 2009,
a petition was submitted to EPA
www.regulations.gov; search for EPA–
HQ–OPPT–2009–0655) to lower the
definition of lead-based paint in pre1978 ‘‘target’’ housing to some value
below the current value of 1 mg/cm 2
or 0.5% by weight (42 U.S.C. 4822(c)),
and to lower the lead hazard control
standards and clearance standards for
lead in dust on floors and window sills
in such housing and in pre-1978 childoccupied facilities below the current
values of 40 and 250 mg/ft 2
(micrograms per square foot),
respectively (40 CFR 745.65(b) and
745.227(e)(8)(viii), and 24 CFR
35.1320(b)(2)(i)), and below the current
clearance standard for window troughs
of 400 mg/ft2 (40 CFR 45.227(e)(8)(viii),
and 24 CFR 35.1320(b)(2)(i)). The HUD
Secretary may reduce the level that
defines lead-based paint in target
housing (42 U.S.C. 4822(c)), and the
EPA Administrator identifies the
leadbased paint hazard standards (15
U.S.C. 2683), and the lead-based paint
standard (15 U.S.C.2683), and the leadbased paint standard in child-occupied
facilities.
In a response dated October 22, 2009,
EPA, writing on behalf of itself and
HUD, agreed to study the issues and
decide whether the lead hazard
standards and/or the lead-based paint
standard should be changed, and to

collaborate with HUD on this effort.
www.epa.gov/oppt/chemtest/pubs/
eparesponse. pdf). The Agency and the
Department intend to have identical
standards for the sake of maximizing
their effectiveness in this matter.
One of the issues to be considered is
the ability to actually determine
‘‘clearance’’ (a work area is sufficiently
clean of lead dust) before allowing
reoccupancy. The clearance levels for
floors and window sills are the same as
the lead hazard standards. This survey
will question HUD grantees as to their
ability to achieve clearance at the
current level for floors and windowsills,
and whether it would be technically
feasible to achieve clearance at
potentially lower levels.
DATES: Comments Due Date: November
15, 2012.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit comments regarding
this proposal. Comments should refer to
the proposal by name and/or OMB
approval Number (2529-Pending) and
should be sent to: HUD Desk Officer,
Office of Management and Budget, New
Executive Office Building, Washington,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice informs the public that the
Department of Housing and Urban
Development has submitted to OMB a
request for approval of the Information

collection described below. This notice
is soliciting comments from members of
the public and affecting agencies
concerning the proposed collection of
information to: (1) 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; (2) Evaluate the
accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of
information; (3) Enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (4) Minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on those who are to respond; including
through the use of appropriate
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
