Authority: 40 C.F.R. Part 745, and 15 U.S.C. §§ 2682 and 2684.

Purpose: Information collected in this system is used to establish an applicant’s eligibility for 1) certification to conduct lead-based paint and renovation, repair and
painting (RRP) activities in target housing and child-occupied facilities; and 2) accreditation to teach lead-based paint and RRP activities training courses. In addition,
certification and accreditation information, as well as information collected from required notifications are used for compliance monitoring, enforcement purposes, and
related research.
Routine Uses: EPA may disclose collected information as necessary pursuant to the routine uses published in the Privacy Act System of Records Notice: Federal Leadbased Paint Program (FLPP) System of Records, EPA-54, F.R. 87 Fed. Reg. No. 201 (October 19, 2022), found at https://www.federalregister.gov/

duties or activities for the Agency.
Mandatory or voluntary disclosure and the effects on the individual of not providing
information: Providing your personal information is voluntary. However, failure to provide your personal information may prevent the Agency from certifying an applicant
to perform lead-based paint or RRP activities, or accrediting training programs to teach lead-based paint and RRP activities
training courses.
I certify that the training program described in Parts A through H of this application, including any attachments, meets the requirements established in paragraph (c) and/or (e) of 40 CFR § 745.225.
I hereby attest and affirm that the information included on this application, including any attachments, is true and accurate to the best of my belief and knowledge. I acknowledge that any
accreditation issued pursuant to this application, including any attachments, will be subject to revocation if issuance was based on incorrect or inadequate information that materially affected the
decision to issue the accreditation. I also attest and affirm that I will maintain my accreditation(s) according to 40 CFR § 745.225 and conduct lead-based paint training only in those disciplines and
geographical areas in which I have received accreditation.
A false statement on this form may lead to prosecution under 18 U.S.C. 1001 or to imposition of applicable criminal and civil penalties and/or administrative remedies.\
