EPA Seeking Dealer Comments by March 28, 2011

The EPA published an information collection request for the costs and burdens to firms engaged in Lead-Based Paint Activities and Renovation, Repair, and Painting.  This is an opportunity for the window and door dealer community to comment on the EPA’s estimates for certification and record keeping. Comments must be received on or before March 28, 2011. 

Publicly available docket materials are available electronically at www.regulations.gov.

Now that the window and door industry has worked to comply with the rule, comments from the companies stating the costs and burdens associated with the rule could have an impact -  particularly considering the President’s executive order affirming cost/benefit analysis and the agency requirement to choose the least burdensome option. 

Please share your comments and cost examples with the WDDA and NGA.  If you  have any questions, please contact me at dwalker@wddalliance.org or 703/442-4890 ext 153.
