Here is what I have learned from reading the 80 plus pages...
1) It will cost me $200-$400 and a Saturday in class to become certified.
2)This law seems to affect homes where children 6 or under live or visit only...
"Under this rule, a child-occupied facility is a building, or a portion of a building, constructed prior to 1978, visited regularly by the same child, under 6 years of age, on at least two different days within any week (Sunday through Saturday period), provided that each day's visit
lasts at least 3 hours and the combined weekly visits last at least 6 hours, and the combined annual visits last at least 60 hours."
3)There is no local permiting or enforcement of the law.
But there will be big fines for non-compliance.
4)This will add a lot of work in the area of cleaning, etc if you read the guidelines we are to follow.
5)The lead waste can be disposed of at the local dump...
"CFR 261.4(b)(1) means that residential lead-based paint waste may be disposed of in municipal solid waste landfill units, as long as the waste is generated during abatement or renovation and remodeling activities in households.Also discussed in the preamble to the 2006 Proposal is a subsequent amendment to the waste regulations promulgated
under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) that allows construction and demolition (C&D) landfills to accept residential lead-based paint waste."
