Rules to be repealed without changes are as follows:
None
IC 16-41-39.4 requires the Indiana Department of Health to have a training and licensure program to ensure that any person who engages in lead-based paint activities is trained and licensed to ensure that work is properly done to protect against the exposure to lead. These rules continue to be needed to set standards for licensing, training, and completion of abatement and nonabatement activities. The rule minimizes the expenses on regulated entities, persons who pay taxes or pay fees for government services, and consumers of products and services of regulated entities. License fees have not increased since 2003. This rule achieves its goal of reducing lead poisoning in the state in the least restrictive way while still maintaining a minimum work standard to ensure the safety of workers doing the work, and the safety of residents and the general public. There have not been any complaints or comments received from the public or regulated entities concerning the rule or the rule's implementation by the agency. No less costly or less intrusive alternative methods of achieving the purpose of the rule have been identified. The rules avoid duplicating any other standards, are written for ease of comprehension, and have practicable enforcement.

(1) The submission of alternative ways to achieve the purpose of the rule.
(2) The submission of suggestions for the development of draft rule language.
