As a courtesy to
contractors, we are
providing you with
important
information
about the new
EPA Lead
Safety Requirements
including newly
added training
dates.
Contractors
are required to have
a training
certification by
April 22, 2010 when working
on homes that are
pre-1978. This new
EPA regulation will
affect you and/or
your company if
painted surfaces
will be disturbed
during your work.
Under the new EPA Lead,
Renovation, Repair &
Painting (RRP) rule,
contractors, renovators,
remodelers, painters,
maintenance workers and
others performing
renovation, repair and
painting projects that
disturb lead-based paint
in homes, apartments,
child care facilities,
and schools built before
1978 must be certified.
Also, firms must have at
least one Certified
Renovator assigned to
jobs where leadbased
paint is disturbed.
There are communication,
paint testing, work
practice and final
cleaning issues that
will be new to many.
