(PREVIOUS CERTIFICATES NEEDED)
Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Initial (for certification under Section 402 of TSCA) As of April 2010, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) enforced a ruling, requiring the use of lead-safe work practices and other actions aimed at preventing lead poisoning. This rule calls for contractors performing renovation, repair, and painting projects which disturbs lead-based paint in homes, childcare facilities, and schools built prior to 1978, must now become EPA certified and must also follow specific work practices, to prevent lead contamination. The requirement affects electricians, plumbers, renovators, remodelers, carpenters, and handymen and those in similar trades. The rule does not apply to minor maintenance or repair activities where less than six square feet of lead-based paint is disturbed in a room or where less than 20 square feet of lead-based paint is disturbed on the exterior. Window replacement is not a minor maintenance or repair. Each firm must have at least one certified renovator on staff, trained by an approved EPA training provider. In order to become certified, individual contractors must attend an 8- hour EPA certified Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Initial training course. A 4-hour refresher course is required every 5 years. ACCREDITATION: Meets U.S. EPA requirements, as per 40 CFR Part 745, Subpart L (73 FR.21692, April 22, 2008). INSTRUCTORS: Mark T.
