Strengthening the Dust-Lead Hazard Standards to Reduce Exposures to Children. EPA released a proposal for public comment to lower the dust-lead hazard standards, for lead in dust for floors and window sills, an important step to reduce lead exposure. "Reducing childhood lead exposure is a top priority for EPA," said EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt. "Lead-contaminated dust from chipped and peeling lead-based paint is one of the most common causes of elevated blood lead levels in children. Strengthening the standards for lead in dust is an important component of EPA's strategy to curtail childhood lead exposure."

Successful Partnerships in Permitting Video. In support of the Trump Administration's efforts to expedite infrastructure projects, EPA's Smart Sectors program released a video, Best Practices in Permitting, highlighting best practices in environmental permitting. "A streamlined permit process, as called for by President Trump, is beneficial for both the environment and the economy," said EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt. "The best practices outlined in this video advance the President's One Federal Decision Memorandum for critical infrastructure projects and can help American job creators save time and resources while accelerating and improving environmental protections."

WHAT YOU CAN DO, WHAT YOU CAN USE

Hot tips for a cool summer:

• Check the air quality before you go out - to run, to play, or just to do yard work. Poor air quality can aggravate asthma or other lung conditions in sensitive individuals.

However, some fish may contain chemicals that could pose health risks if these fish are eaten in large amounts. Learn more about how you can select and prepare fish, so you and your family can continue to enjoy the benefits of eating fish.
