A bill to amend 1978 PA 368, entitled “Public health code,” by amending section 5474 (MCL 333.5474), as added by 1998 PA 219, and by adding section 5456a.
House Bills 4532, 5368, and 5369 would amend Part 54A (Lead Abatement) of the Public Health Code to revise the threshold considered an elevated blood lead level in children and to change requirements related to lead abatement and mitigation for certain buildings or activities (e.g., renovation), among other changes described below. Many of the bills’ amendments appear to be a codification into state law of federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requirements.
