LEAD HAZARD REDUCTION NOTIFICATION.
Operative Text
Subpart 1. General requirements. The certified lead firm or lead supervisor conducting lead hazard reduction, or a property owner who will personally perform lead hazard reduction in or on the owner's property, must notify the commissioner of each project to be performed in whole or in part by the certified lead firm, lead supervisor, or property owner. Subp. 2. Notification requirements. A. The commissioner must receive from the certified lead firm, lead supervisor, or property owner a completed notification on a form provided by the commissioner. B. The notice must be received by the commissioner at least five calendar days before the beginning of a project, except as provided in part 4761.2600. C. The notice must be mailed, faxed, delivered, or electronically submitted to the commissioner. D. The notice must also be provided to the assessing agency if lead hazard reduction was ordered by an assessing agency other than the Department of Health. Subp. 3. Work schedule. A certified lead firm, lead supervisor, or property owner performing lead hazard reduction must ensure that work is performed only during dates and work shifts for which the commissioner was notified.
Minn. R. 4761 § 4761.2580 establishes a pre-work notification requirement for lead hazard reduction projects in Minnesota. Before any lead hazard reduction work begins, the state commissioner must receive a completed notification form at least five calendar days in advance, with limited exceptions. If the project was ordered by a local assessing agency other than the Department of Health, that agency must also receive notice. Once notified, all work must be carried out only during the dates and shifts specified in that notification.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Minn. R. 4761 § 4761.2580, property owners who personally perform lead hazard reduction on their own property—as well as certified lead firms and supervisors they hire—are responsible for submitting the required notification form to the commissioner at least five calendar days before work begins. Compliant operators confirm that the form is submitted via an accepted method (mail, fax, delivery, or electronic submission) and that any assessing agency that ordered the work also receives a copy. Work is then scheduled and performed strictly within the dates and shifts disclosed in that notification.

Minn. R. 4761 § 4761.2580 gives tenants an interest in knowing that lead hazard reduction work at their residence is subject to mandatory advance notification to the state commissioner before it begins. If work appears to be starting without the required five-day notice, or is being performed outside the dates and shifts that were reported, tenants may raise these procedural requirements as a concern with the Minnesota Department of Health or a local assessing agency that may have ordered the work. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Minnesota housing and environmental health rules can help explain what options may be available under this provision.
