Sec. 745.81 Effective dates

(a) Training, certification and accreditation requirements and work
practice standards . The training, certification and accreditation
requirements and work practice standards in this subpart are applicable
in any State or Indian Tribal area that does not have a renovation
program that is authorized under subpart Q of this part. The training,
certification and accreditation requirements and work practice standards
in this subpart will become effective as follows:

(1) Training programs . Effective June 23, 2008, no training program may
provide, offer, or claim to provide training or refresher training for
EPA certification as a renovator or a dust sampling technician without
accreditation from EPA under §745.225. Training programs may apply for
accreditation under §745.225 beginning April 22, 2009.

(2) Firms . (i) Firms may apply for certification under §745.89
beginning October 22, 2009.

(ii) On or after April 22, 2010, no firm may perform, offer, or claim to
perform renovations without certification from EPA under §745.89 in
target housing or child-occupied facilities, unless the renovation
qualifies for one of the exceptions identified in §745.82(a) or (c).

(3) Individuals . On or after April 22, 2010, all renovations must be
directed by renovators certified in accordance with §745.90(a) and
performed by certified renovators or individuals trained in accordance
with §745.90(b)(2) in target housing or child-occupied facilities,
unless the renovation qualifies for one of the exceptions identified in
§745.82(a) or (c).

(4) Work practices. (i) On or after April 22, 2010 and before July 6,
2010 all renovations must be performed in accordance with the work
practice standards in §  745.85 and the associated recordkeeping
requirements in §  745.86 (b)(6) in target housing or child-occupied
facilities, unless the renovation qualifies for one of the exceptions
identified in §745.82(a). This does not apply to renovations in target
housing for which the firm performing the renovation has obtained a
statement signed by the owner that the renovation will occur in the
owner's residence, no child under age 6 resides there, the housing is
not a child-occupied facility, and the owner acknowledges that the work
practices to be used during the renovation will not necessarily include
all of the lead-safe work practices contained in EPA's renovation,
repair, and painting rule. For the purposes of this section, a child
resides in the primary residence of his or her custodial parents, legal
guardians, and foster parents. A child also resides in the primary
residence of an informal caretaker if the child lives and sleeps most of
the time at the caretaker's residence.

(ii) On or after July 6, 2010, all renovations must be performed in
accordance with the work practice standards in §  745.85 and the
associated recordkeeping requirements in §  745.86(b)(1) and (b)(6)
in target housing or child-occupied facilities, unless the renovation
qualifies for the exception identified in §745.82(a).

(5) The suspension and revocation provisions in §745.91 are effective
April 22, 2010.

(b) Renovation-specific pamphlet . Before December 22, 2008, renovators
or firms performing renovations in States and Indian Tribal areas
without an authorized program may provide owners and occupants with
either of the following EPA pamphlets: Protect Your Family From Lead in
Your Home or Renovate Right: Important Lead Hazard Information for
Families, Child Care Providers and Schools . After that date, Renovate
Right: Important Lead Hazard Information for Families, Child Care
Providers and Schools must be used exclusively.

(c) Pre-Renovation Education Rule . With the exception of the
requirement to use the pamphlet entitled Renovate Right: Important Lead
Hazard Information for Families, Child Care Providers and Schools , the
provisions of the Pre-Renovation Education Rule in this subpart have
been in effect since June 1999.

Sec. 745.82 Applicability

(a) This subpart applies to all renovations performed for compensation
in target housing and child-occupied facilities, except for the
following:

(1) Renovations in target housing or child-occupied facilities in which
a written determination has been made by an inspector or risk assessor
(certified pursuant to either Federal regulations at §745.226 or a
State or Tribal certification program authorized pursuant to §745.324)
that the components affected by the renovation are free of paint or
other surface coatings that contain lead equal to or in excess of 1.0
milligrams/per square centimeter (mg/cm2 ) or 0.5% by weight, where the
firm performing the renovation has obtained a copy of the determination.

(2) Renovations in target housing or child-occupied facilities in which
a certified renovator, using an EPA recognized test kit as defined in
§745.83 and following the kit manufacturer's instructions, has tested
each component affected by the renovation and determined that the
components are free of paint or other surface coatings that contain lead
equal to or in excess of 1.0 mg/cm2 or 0.5% by weight. If the components
make up an integrated whole, such as the individual stair treads and
risers of a single staircase, the renovator is required to test only one
of the individual components, unless the individual components appear to
have been repainted or refinished separately.

(b) The information distribution requirements in §745.84 do not apply
to emergency renovations, which are renovation activities that were not
planned but result from a sudden, unexpected event (such as non-routine
failures of equipment) that, if not immediately attended to, presents a
safety or public health hazard, or threatens equipment and/or property
with significant damage. Interim controls performed in response to an
elevated blood lead level in a resident child are also emergency
renovations. Emergency renovations other than interim controls are also
exempt from the warning sign, containment, waste handling, training, and
certification requirements in §§745.85, 745.89, and 745.90 to the
extent necessary to respond to the emergency. Emergency renovations are
not exempt from the cleaning requirements of §745.85(a)(5), which must
be performed by certified renovators or individuals trained in
accordance with §745.90(b)(2), the cleaning verification requirements
of §745.85(b), which must be performed by certified renovators, and the
recordkeeping requirements of §745.86(b)(6) and (b)(7).

Sec. 745.83 Definitions

For purposes of this part, the definitions in §745.103 as well as the
following definitions apply:

Administrator means the Administrator of the Environmental Protection
Agency.

Child-occupied facility means a building, or 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. Child-occupied facilities
may include, but are not limited to, day care centers, preschools and
kindergarten classrooms. Child-occupied facilities may be located in
target housing or in public or commercial buildings. With respect to
common areas in public or commercial buildings that contain
child-occupied facilities, the child-occupied facility encompasses only
those common areas that are routinely used by children under age 6, such
as restrooms and cafeterias. Common areas that children under age 6 only
pass through, such as hallways, stairways, and garages are not included.
In addition, with respect to exteriors of public or commercial buildings
that contain child-occupied facilities, the child-occupied facility
encompasses only the exterior sides of the building that are immediately
adjacent to the child-occupied facility or the common areas routinely
used by children under age 6.

Cleaning verification card means a card developed and distributed, or
otherwise approved, by EPA for the purpose of determining, through
comparison of wet and dry disposable cleaning cloths with the card,
whether post-renovation cleaning has been properly completed.

Component or building component means specific design or structural
elements or fixtures of a building or residential dwelling that are
distinguished from each other by form, function, and location. These
include, but are not limited to, interior components such as: Ceilings,
crown molding, walls, chair rails, doors, door trim, floors, fireplaces,
radiators and other heating units, shelves, shelf supports, stair
treads, stair risers, stair stringers, newel posts, railing caps,
balustrades, windows and trim (including sashes, window heads, jambs,
sills or stools and troughs), built in cabinets, columns, beams,
bathroom vanities, counter tops, and air conditioners; and exterior
components such as: Painted roofing, chimneys, flashing, gutters and
downspouts, ceilings, soffits, fascias, rake boards, cornerboards,
bulkheads, doors and door trim, fences, floors, joists, lattice work,
railings and railing caps, siding, handrails, stair risers and treads,
stair stringers, columns, balustrades, windowsills or stools and
troughs, casings, sashes and wells, and air conditioners.

Dry disposable cleaning cloth means a commercially available dry,
electrostatically charged, white disposable cloth designed to be used
for cleaning hard surfaces such as uncarpeted floors or counter tops.

Firm means a company, partnership, corporation, sole proprietorship or
individual doing business, association, or other business entity; a
Federal, State, Tribal, or local government agency; or a nonprofit
organization.

HEPA vacuum means a vacuum cleaner which has been designed with a
high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter as the last filtration
stage. A HEPA filter is a filter that is capable of capturing particles
of 0.3 microns with 99.97% efficiency. The vacuum cleaner must be
designed so that all the air drawn into the machine is expelled through
the HEPA filter with none of the air leaking past it.

Interim controls means a set of measures designed to temporarily reduce
human exposure or likely exposure to lead-based paint hazards, including
specialized cleaning, repairs, maintenance, painting, temporary
containment, ongoing monitoring of lead-based paint hazards or potential
hazards, and the establishment and operation of management and resident
education programs.

Minor repair and maintenance activities are activities, including minor
heating, ventilation or air conditioning work, electrical work, and
plumbing, that disrupt 6 square feet or less of painted surface per room
for interior activities or 20 square feet or less of painted surface for
exterior activities where none of the work practices prohibited or
restricted by §745.85(a)(3) are used and where the work does not
involve window replacement or demolition of painted surface areas. When
removing painted components, or portions of painted components, the
entire surface area removed is the amount of painted surface disturbed.
Jobs, other than emergency renovations, performed in the same room
within the same 30 days must be considered the same job for the purpose
of determining whether the job is a minor repair and maintenance
activity.

Pamphlet means the EPA pamphlet titled Renovate Right: Important Lead
Hazard Information for Families, Child Care Providers and Schools
developed under section 406(a) of TSCA for use in complying with section
406(b) of TSCA, or any State or Tribal pamphlet approved by EPA pursuant
to 40 CFR 745.326 that is developed for the same purpose. This includes
reproductions of the pamphlet when copied in full and without revision
or deletion of material from the pamphlet (except for the addition or
revision of State or local sources of information). Before December 22,
2008, the term “pamphlet” also means any pamphlet developed by EPA
under section 406(a) of TSCA or any State or Tribal pamphlet approved by
EPA pursuant to §745.326.

Person means any natural or judicial person including any individual,
corporation, partnership, or association; any Indian Tribe, State, or
political subdivision thereof; any interstate body; and any department,
agency, or instrumentality of the Federal Government.

Recognized test kit means a commercially available kit recognized by EPA
under §745.88 as being capable of allowing a user to determine the
presence of lead at levels equal to or in excess of 1.0 milligrams per
square centimeter, or more than 0.5% lead by weight, in a paint chip,
paint powder, or painted surface.

Renovation means the modification of any existing structure, or portion
thereof, that results in the disturbance of painted surfaces, unless
that activity is performed as part of an abatement as defined by this
part (40 CFR 745.223). The term renovation includes (but is not limited
to): The removal, modification or repair of painted surfaces or painted
components (e.g., modification of painted doors, surface restoration,
window repair, surface preparation activity (such as sanding, scraping,
or other such activities that may generate paint dust)); the removal of
building components (e.g., walls, ceilings, plumbing, windows);
weatherization projects (e.g., cutting holes in painted surfaces to
install blown-in insulation or to gain access to attics, planing
thresholds to install weather-stripping), and interim controls that
disturb painted surfaces. A renovation performed for the purpose of
converting a building, or part of a building, into target housing or a
child-occupied facility is a renovation under this subpart. The term
renovation does not include minor repair and maintenance activities.

Renovator means an individual who either performs or directs workers who
perform renovations. A certified renovator is a renovator who has
successfully completed a renovator course accredited by EPA or an
EPA-authorized State or Tribal program.

Training hour means at least 50 minutes of actual learning, including,
but not limited to, time devoted to lecture, learning activities, small
group activities, demonstrations, evaluations, and hands-on experience.

Wet disposable cleaning cloth means a commercially available,
pre-moistened white disposable cloth designed to be used for cleaning
hard surfaces such as uncarpeted floors or counter tops.

Wet mopping system means a device with the following characteristics: A
long handle, a mop head designed to be used with disposable absorbent
cleaning pads, a reservoir for cleaning solution, and a built-in
mechanism for distributing or spraying the cleaning solution onto a
floor, or a method of equivalent efficacy.

Work area means the area that the certified renovator establishes to
contain the dust and debris generated by a renovation.

Sec.745.85 Work practice standards

(a) Standards for renovation activities . Renovations must be performed
by certified firms using certified renovators as directed in §745.89.
The responsibilities of certified firms are set forth in §745.89(d) and
the responsibilities of certified renovators are set forth in
§745.90(b).

(1) Occupant protection . Firms must post signs clearly defining the
work area and warning occupants and other persons not involved in
renovation activities to remain outside of the work area. To the extent
practicable, these signs must be in the primary language of the
occupants. These signs must be posted before beginning the renovation
and must remain in place and readable until the renovation and the
post-renovation cleaning verification have been completed. If warning
signs have been posted in accordance with 24 CFR 35.1345(b)(2) or 29 CFR
1926.62(m), additional signs are not required by this section.

(2) Containing the work area . Before beginning the renovation, the firm
must isolate the work area so that no dust or debris leaves the work
area while the renovation is being performed. In addition, the firm must
maintain the integrity of the containment by ensuring that any plastic
or other impermeable materials are not torn or displaced, and taking any
other steps necessary to ensure that no dust or debris leaves the work
area while the renovation is being performed. The firm must also ensure
that containment is installed in such a manner that it does not
interfere with occupant and worker egress in an emergency.

(i) Interior renovations . The firm must:

(A) Remove all objects from the work area, including furniture, rugs,
and window coverings, or cover them with plastic sheeting or other
impermeable material with all seams and edges taped or otherwise sealed.

(B) Close and cover all ducts opening in the work area with taped-down
plastic sheeting or other impermeable material.

(C) Close windows and doors in the work area. Doors must be covered with
plastic sheeting or other impermeable material. Doors used as an
entrance to the work area must be covered with plastic sheeting or other
impermeable material in a manner that allows workers to pass through
while confining dust and debris to the work area.

(D) Cover the floor surface, including installed carpet, with taped-down
plastic sheeting or other impermeable material in the work area 6 feet
beyond the perimeter of surfaces undergoing renovation or a sufficient
distance to contain the dust, whichever is greater.

(E) Use precautions to ensure that all personnel, tools, and other
items, including the exteriors of containers of waste, are free of dust
and debris before leaving the work area.

(ii) Exterior renovations . The firm must:

(A) Close all doors and windows within 20 feet of the renovation. On
multi-story buildings, close all doors and windows within 20 feet of the
renovation on the same floor as the renovation, and close all doors and
windows on all floors below that are the same horizontal distance from
the renovation.

(B) Ensure that doors within the work area that will be used while the
job is being performed are covered with plastic sheeting or other
impermeable material in a manner that allows workers to pass through
while confining dust and debris to the work area.

(C) Cover the ground with plastic sheeting or other disposable
impermeable material extending 10 feet beyond the perimeter of surfaces
undergoing renovation or a sufficient distance to collect falling paint
debris, whichever is greater, unless the property line prevents 10 feet
of such ground covering.

(D) In certain situations, the renovation firm must take extra
precautions in containing the work area to ensure that dust and debris
from the renovation does not contaminate other buildings or other areas
of the property or migrate to adjacent properties.

(3) Prohibited and restricted practices. The work practices listed below
shall be prohibited or restricted during a renovation as follows:

(i) Open-flame burning or torching of lead-based paint is prohibited.

(ii) The use of machines that remove lead-based paint through high speed
operation such as sanding, grinding, power planing, needle gun, abrasive
blasting, or sandblasting, is prohibited unless such machines are used
with HEPA exhaust control.

(iii) Operating a heat gun on lead-based paint is permitted only at
temperatures below 1100 degrees Fahrenheit.

(4) Waste from renovations —(i) Waste from renovation activities must
be contained to prevent releases of dust and debris before the waste is
removed from the work area for storage or disposal. If a chute is used
to remove waste from the work area, it must be covered.

(ii) At the conclusion of each work day and at the conclusion of the
renovation, waste that has been collected from renovation activities
must be stored under containment, in an enclosure, or behind a barrier
that prevents release of dust and debris out of the work area and
prevents access to dust and debris.

(iii) When the firm transports waste from renovation activities, the
firm must contain the waste to prevent release of dust and debris.

(5) Cleaning the work area . After the renovation has been completed,
the firm must clean the work area until no dust, debris or residue
remains.

(i) Interior and exterior renovations . The firm must:

(A) Collect all paint chips and debris and, without dispersing any of
it, seal this material in a heavy-duty bag.

(B) Remove the protective sheeting. Mist the sheeting before folding it,
fold the dirty side inward, and either tape shut to seal or seal in
heavy-duty bags. Sheeting used to isolate contaminated rooms from
non-contaminated rooms must remain in place until after the cleaning and
removal of other sheeting. Dispose of the sheeting as waste.

(ii) Additional cleaning for interior renovations . The firm must clean
all objects and surfaces in the work area and within 2 feet of the work
area in the following manner, cleaning from higher to lower:

(A) Walls . Clean walls starting at the ceiling and working down to the
floor by either vacuuming with a HEPA vacuum or wiping with a damp
cloth.

(B) Remaining surfaces . Thoroughly vacuum all remaining surfaces and
objects in the work area, including furniture and fixtures, with a HEPA
vacuum. The HEPA vacuum must be equipped with a beater bar when
vacuuming carpets and rugs.

(C) Wipe all remaining surfaces and objects in the work area, except for
carpeted or upholstered surfaces, with a damp cloth. Mop uncarpeted
floors thoroughly, using a mopping method that keeps the wash water
separate from the rinse water, such as the 2-bucket mopping method, or
using a wet mopping system.

(b) Standards for post-renovation cleaning verification —(1) Interiors
. (i) A certified renovator must perform a visual inspection to
determine whether dust, debris or residue is still present. If dust,
debris or residue is present, these conditions must be removed by
re-cleaning and another visual inspection must be performed.

(ii) After a successful visual inspection, a certified renovator must:

(A) Verify that each windowsill in the work area has been adequately
cleaned, using the following procedure.

( 1 ) Wipe the windowsill with a wet disposable cleaning cloth that is
damp to the touch. If the cloth matches or is lighter than the cleaning
verification card, the windowsill has been adequately cleaned.

( 2 ) If the cloth does not match and is darker than the cleaning
verification card, re-clean the windowsill as directed in paragraphs
(a)(5)(ii)(B) and (a)(5)(ii)(C) of this section, then either use a new
cloth or fold the used cloth in such a way that an unused surface is
exposed, and wipe the surface again. If the cloth matches or is lighter
than the cleaning verification card, that windowsill has been adequately
cleaned.

( 3 ) If the cloth does not match and is darker than the cleaning
verification card, wait for 1 hour or until the surface has dried
completely, whichever is longer.

( 4 )After waiting for the windowsill to dry, wipe the windowsill with a
dry disposable cleaning cloth. After this wipe, the windowsill has been
adequately cleaned.

(B) Wipe uncarpeted floors and countertops within the work area with a
wet disposable cleaning cloth. Floors must be wiped using an application
device with a long handle and a head to which the cloth is attached. The
cloth must remain damp at all times while it is being used to wipe the
surface for post-renovation cleaning verification. If the surface within
the work area is greater than 40 square feet, the surface within the
work area must be divided into roughly equal sections that are each less
than 40 square feet. Wipe each such section separately with a new wet
disposable cleaning cloth. If the cloth used to wipe each section of the
surface within the work area matches the cleaning verification card, the
surface has been adequately cleaned.

( 1 ) If the cloth used to wipe a particular surface section does not
match the cleaning verification card, re-clean that section of the
surface as directed in paragraphs (a)(5)(ii)(B) and (a)(5)(ii)(C) of
this section, then use a new wet disposable cleaning cloth to wipe that
section again. If the cloth matches the cleaning verification card, that
section of the surface has been adequately cleaned.

( 2 ) If the cloth used to wipe a particular surface section does not
match the cleaning verification card after the surface has been
re-cleaned, wait for 1 hour or until the entire surface within the work
area has dried completely, whichever is longer.

( 3 ) After waiting for the entire surface within the work area to dry,
wipe each section of the surface that has not yet achieved
post-renovation cleaning verification with a dry disposable cleaning
cloth. After this wipe, that section of the surface has been adequately
cleaned.

(iii) When the work area passes the post-renovation cleaning
verification, remove the warning signs.

(2) Exteriors . A certified renovator must perform a visual inspection
to determine whether dust, debris or residue is still present on
surfaces in and below the work area, including windowsills and the
ground. If dust, debris or residue is present, these conditions must be
eliminated and another visual inspection must be performed. When the
area passes the visual inspection, remove the warning signs.

(c) Optional dust clearance testing . Cleaning verification need not be
performed if the contract between the renovation firm and the person
contracting for the renovation or another Federal, State, Territorial,
Tribal, or local law or regulation requires:

(1) The renovation firm to perform dust clearance sampling at the
conclusion of a renovation covered by this subpart.

(2) The dust clearance samples are required to be collected by a
certified inspector, risk assessor or dust sampling technician.

(3) The renovation firm is required to re-clean the work area until the
dust clearance sample results are below the clearance standards in
§745.227(e)(8) or any applicable State, Territorial, Tribal, or local
standard.

(d) Activities conducted after post-renovation cleaning verification .
Activities that do not disturb paint, such as applying paint to walls
that have already been prepared, are not regulated by this subpart if
they are conducted after post-renovation cleaning verification has been
performed.

Sec. 745.89 Firm certification

(a) Initial certification . (1) Firms that perform renovations for
compensation must apply to EPA for certification to perform renovations
or dust sampling. To apply, a firm must submit to EPA a completed
“Application for Firms,” signed by an authorized agent of the firm,
and pay at least the correct amount of fees. If a firm pays more than
the correct amount of fees, EPA will reimburse the firm for the excess
amount.

(2) After EPA receives a firm's application, EPA will take one of the
following actions within 90 days of the date the application is
received:

(i) EPA will approve a firm's application if EPA determines that it is
complete and that the environmental compliance history of the firm, its
principals, or its key employees does not show an unwillingness or
inability to maintain compliance with environmental statutes or
regulations. An application is complete if it contains all of the
information requested on the form and includes at least the correct
amount of fees. When EPA approves a firm's application, EPA will issue
the firm a certificate with an expiration date not more than 5 years
from the date the application is approved. EPA certification allows the
firm to perform renovations covered by this section in any State or
Indian Tribal area that does not have a renovation program that is
authorized under subpart Q of this part.

(ii) EPA will request a firm to supplement its application if EPA
determines that the application is incomplete. If EPA requests a firm to
supplement its application, the firm must submit the requested
information or pay the additional fees within 30 days of the date of the
request.

(iii) EPA will not approve a firm's application if the firm does not
supplement its application in accordance with paragraph (a)(2)(ii) of
this section or if EPA determines that the environmental compliance
history of the firm, its principals, or its key employees demonstrates
an unwillingness or inability to maintain compliance with environmental
statutes or regulations. EPA will send the firm a letter giving the
reason for not approving the application. EPA will not refund the
application fees. A firm may reapply for certification at any time by
filing a new, complete application that includes the correct amount of
fees.

(b) Re-certification . To maintain its certification, a firm must be
re-certified by EPA every 5 years.

(1) Timely and complete application . To be re-certified, a firm must
submit a complete application for re-certification. A complete
application for re-certification includes a completed “Application for
Firms” which contains all of the information requested by the form and
is signed by an authorized agent of the firm, noting on the form that it
is submitted as a re-certification. A complete application must also
include at least the correct amount of fees. If a firm pays more than
the correct amount of fees, EPA will reimburse the firm for the excess
amount.

(i) An application for re-certification is timely if it is postmarked 90
days or more before the date the firm's current certification expires.
If the firm's application is complete and timely, the firm's current
certification will remain in effect until its expiration date or until
EPA has made a final decision to approve or disapprove the
re-certification application, whichever is later.

(ii) If the firm submits a complete re-certification application less
than 90 days before its current certification expires, and EPA does not
approve the application before the expiration date, the firm's current
certification will expire and the firm will not be able to conduct
renovations until EPA approves its re-certification application.

(iii) If the firm fails to obtain recertification before the firm's
current certification expires, the firm must not perform renovations or
dust sampling until it is certified anew pursuant to paragraph (a) of
this section.

(2) EPA action on an application . After EPA receives a firm's
application for re-certification, EPA will review the application and
take one of the following actions within 90 days of receipt:

(i) EPA will approve a firm's application if EPA determines that it is
timely and complete and that the environmental compliance history of the
firm, its principals, or its key employees does not show an
unwillingness or inability to maintain compliance with environmental
statutes or regulations. When EPA approves a firm's application for
re-certification, EPA will issue the firm a new certificate with an
expiration date 5 years from the date that the firm's current
certification expires. EPA certification allows the firm to perform
renovations or dust sampling covered by this section in any State or
Indian Tribal area that does not have a renovation program that is
authorized under subpart Q of this part.

(ii) EPA will request a firm to supplement its application if EPA
determines that the application is incomplete.

(iii) EPA will not approve a firm's application if it is not received or
is not complete as of the date that the firm's current certification
expires, or if EPA determines that the environmental compliance history
of the firm, its principals, or its key employees demonstrates an
unwillingness or inability to maintain compliance with environmental
statutes or regulations. EPA will send the firm a letter giving the
reason for not approving the application. EPA will not refund the
application fees. A firm may reapply for certification at any time by
filing a new application and paying the correct amount of fees.

(c) Amendment of certification . A firm must amend its certification
within 90 days of the date a change occurs to information included in
the firm's most recent application. If the firm fails to amend its
certification within 90 days of the date the change occurs, the firm may
not perform renovations or dust sampling until its certification is
amended.

(1) To amend a certification, a firm must submit a completed
“Application for Firms,” signed by an authorized agent of the firm,
noting on the form that it is submitted as an amendment and indicating
the information that has changed. The firm must also pay at least the
correct amount of fees.

(2) If additional information is needed to process the amendment, or the
firm did not pay the correct amount of fees, EPA will request the firm
to submit the necessary information or fees. The firm's certification is
not amended until the firm complies with the request.

(3) Amending a certification does not affect the certification
expiration date.

final agency action which may be subject to judicial review. The order
must contain the commencement date and duration of the suspension,
revocation, or modification.

(4) If EPA determines that the public health, interest, or welfare
warrants immediate action to suspend the certification of any individual
or firm prior to the opportunity for a hearing, it will:

(i) Notify the affected entity in accordance with paragraph (b)(1)(i)
through (b)(1)(iii) of this section, explaining why it is necessary to
suspend the entity's certification before an opportunity for a hearing.

immediate suspension within 15 days of the suspension taking place and
the procedures for the conduct of such a hearing.

(5) Any notice, decision, or order issued by EPA under this section, any
transcript or other verbatim record of oral testimony, and any documents
filed by a certified individual or firm in a hearing under this section
will be available to the public, except as otherwise provided by section
14 of TSCA or by part 2 of this title. Any such hearing at which oral
testimony is presented will be open to the public, except that the
Presiding Officer may exclude the public to the extent necessary to
allow presentation of information which may be entitled to confidential
treatment under section 14 of TSCA or part 2 of this title.

(6) EPA will maintain a publicly available list of entities whose
certification has been suspended, revoked, modified, or reinstated.

(7) Unless the decision and order issued under paragraph (b)(3)(iii) of
this section specify otherwise:

(i) An individual whose certification has been suspended must take a
refresher training course (renovator or dust sampling technician) in
order to make his or her certification current.

(ii) An individual whose certification has been revoked must take an
initial renovator or dust sampling technician course in order to become

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing to amend Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations
(14 CFR) part 71 by establishing Class E airspace at Tarkio, MO.
Controlled airspace is necessary to accommodate aircraft using the new
RNAV(GPS) IAP at Gould Peterson Municipal Airport. This action would
enhance the safety and management of aircraft operations at Gould
Peterson Municipal Airport, Tarkio, MO.
    Class E airspace areas extending upward from 700 feet or more above
the surface of the earth are published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order
7400.9P, dated September 1, 2006, and effective September 16, 2006,
which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace
designations listed in this document would be published subsequently in
the Order.
    The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore, (1) is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979);
and (3) does not warrant preparation of a Regulatory Evaluation as the
anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that
will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when promulgated, will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71

    Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (Air).

The Proposed Amendment

    In consideration of the foregoing, the Federal Aviation
Administration proposes to amend 14 CFR part 71 as follows:

PART 71--DESIGNATION OF CLASS A, CLASS B, CLASS C, CLASS D, AND
CLASS E AIRSPACE AREAS; AIRWAYS; ROUTES; AND REPORTING POINTS

    1. The authority citation for part 71 continues to read as follows:

Sec.  71.1  [Amended]

    2. The incorporation by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 of Federal
Aviation Administration Order 7400.9P, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated September 1, 2006, and effective September 15,
2006, is amended as follows:

Final Notice of Data Availability for EGU NOx Annual and NOx Ozone
Season Allocations for the Clean Air Interstate Rule Federal
Implementation Plan Trading Programs.

Data Field Description for the CAIR FIP NOx Annual and NOx Ozone Season
Allocation Tables (2009 through 2014 allowance allocations)

EPA Docket number:  OAR-2004-0076

November 2007

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

Office of Air and Radiation

Data Fields in the CAIR FIP NOx Annual and

NOx Ozone Season Allocation Tables

	The electric generating unit (EGU) NOx allocation file "Final Data for
EGU NOx Annual and NOx Ozone Season Allocations for the Clean Air
Interstate Rule Federal Implementation Plan Trading Programs" is
available on the Clean Air Markets Division (CAMD) website and in the
CAIR FIP docket.  Section 8 of the final Notice of Data Availability
(NODA) describes how to locate this file.  This technical support
document (TSD) describes data fields in the tables of that allocation
file.

	The EGU NOx allocations file contains nine worksheets, one table per
worksheet, labeled T1 through T9.  Worksheets T1 and T2 provide,
respectively, the unit annual and ozone season NOx allocations.
Worksheets T3 through T9 provide the Energy Information Administration
(EIA), CAMD, and August 4, 2006 NODA objector heat input data used to
determine the unit allocations in T1 and T2.

Each table in this TSD corresponds to one of the nine tables in the EGU
NOx allocations file and describes the field names and data given in
each allocation table.  Table 1 of the TSD describes the data fields in
worksheet T1, Table 2 describes the data fields in worksheet T2, Table 3
describes the data fields in worksheet T3, and so on.  Some units use
heat input data available from both EIA and CAMD to compile the baseline
year heat input.  This approach applies for those units that were not
subject to the Acid Rain Program (ARP), Ozone Transport Commission (OTC)
trading program, or the NOx Budget Trading Program (NBP) throughout the
baseline period.  For allocations under the CAIR FIP NOx annual trading
program, EIA data (Table 3) were used until the first full year of ARP
data (Table 4) or non-ARP unit 12-month reported OTC/NBP data (Table 5)
were available.  Ozone season heat input data in the CAIR FIP NOx ozone
season allocation (Table 2) are always from the data reported under the
ARP, OTC, or NBP, if available.

Objector data (Tables 6 and 9) replace all other data.  The objector
data in Tables 6 and 9 represent the subset of heat input objections
that EPA has accepted.  For a full discussion of EPA's response to
objectives submitted in response to the August 2006 NODA, please refer
to the "NODA Response to Objections" document which is also available on
EPA's website and in the CAIR FIP docket.

1) EPA excluded generators which did not sell electricity to a utility
in 1999 or 2000 based on EIA form 860b.  However, under CAIR, a unit
serving a generator greater than 25 MWe, and producing electricity for
sale on or after 11/15/90 is subject to CAIR.  Sales data were only
available for 1999 and 2000.  However, if a generator was selling
electricity at anytime on or after 1990, a unit serving the generator
may be affected and were asked to provide data to EPA in the period for
objections.

2) The solid waste incinerator exemption was determined by identifying
generators located at municipal solid waste combustors according to EIA
form 860.  There may be several solid waste incinerators which are not
located at municipal waste combustors, but would qualify for the
exemption.  Unit owners and operators were asked to review and comment
on this exemption status.

3)  EPA excluded generators which were located at FERC qualifying
cogeneration facilities that had annual plant wide sales of 1/3 or less
of the potential generating capacity, or that had annual sales less than
219,000 MW-hrs, to an electric utility based on EIA form 860b (1999 and
2000).  Sales and efficiency data used to determine whether a unit
qualifies for a cogeneration exemption under CAIR was insufficient.
Unit owner and operators were asked to review their historic sales and
efficiency data to determine whether their units qualify for the
cogeneration exemption under CAIR.
