BOARD FOR ASBESTOS, LEAD, AND HOME INSPECTORS

The licensing Board was created by the General Assembly in 1993 to oversee the asbestos licensing regulations. It was expanded in 1994 to include lead-based paint activities licensing, and again in 2001 to include home inspector certification. The Board is composed of ten members and required to meet quarterly by statute. The Board's duties include promulgating asbestos licensing and lead-based paint activities licensing regulations, establishing criteria for training courses, asbestos laboratories, and setting general policy standards. The Board is also charged with promulgating regulations for the voluntary certification of home inspectors no later than July 1, 2003. The asbestos regulations were effective January 2, 2002 and the lead-based paint activities regulations were effective September 8, 2004.
