Lead standards bill vetoed

A-5541B/S-8050A, Establishes environmental standards for ambient lead and lead contamination, has been Vetoed by the Governor.

I could see this being used in a way to target shooting ranges.  The relevant clause:

“The Departments of Environmental Conservation and Health shall propose new standards, and update any existing standards as appropriate, for dust lead hazards, soil-lead hazards and ambient air quality standards for the level of lead in various media that will result in blood lead levels that are no higher than a target that is fully protective of human health and which at a minimum include consideration of recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control.”
