Introduced
by
To require rules promulgated by the Department of Community Health under the law that mandates and establishes standards for lead paint hazard abatement in residences where children may come in contact, to be at least as “protective” as federal Environment Protection Agency’s rules. Among other things the bills would increase fines. Also, it woulld update definitions, abatement contractor certification requirements and other provisions of the state lead hazard abatement law so as to reflect EPA mandates.
