Abstract: This information collection request (ICR) renews the information collection activities covering the reporting and recordkeeping requirements for individuals or firms conducting lead-based paint activities or renovation in or on houses, apartments, or child-occupied facilities built before 1978, under the authority of sections 402 and 404 of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) (15 U.S.C. 2682, 2684). In doing so, it reflects the incorporation of existing ICRs 1715.09 (ICR for lead-based paint activities), 1715.10 (ICR addendum for the 2008 Lead Renovation, Repair and Painting (LRRP) final rule), and 1715.12 (ICR addendum for the amendments in the 2010 LRRP Opt-out Final Rule).

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Reduction Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Short Statement: This request reflects a decrease of 497,229 hours (from 3,809,753 hours to 3,312,524 hours) in the total estimated respondent burden from that currently in the OMB inventory. This decrease reflects: EPA's revisions to the estimated number of respondents based on the number of respondents reporting to the Agency under the prior information collection; EPA's revisions to per-activity burden estimates to simplify some assumptions and to make estimation methods consistent; and characterization as Agency burden some burden elements that had previously been described as respondent burden. The Supporting Statement provides details on the change in burden estimate. The change is an adjustment.
