Conducted analysis of existing California and federal laws pertaining to the training and certification of individuals authorized to perform renovation, remodeling, and painting activities. Activities included researching publications; interviewing qualified State and Federal program representatives; and reviewing federal requirements for registering firms that are applicable to the CDPH-authorized lead program. Resulting from the in-depth research and analysis, IAI staff developed scenarios for draft regulatory changes with the support of California’s lead poisoning prevention program.
