Attention remodelers, painters, drywallers, window installers, electricians, plumbers, carpenters, and anyone else who works on pre-1978 homes and buildings!
Under new EPA rules that went into effect in April, 2010, contractors performing renovation, repair and painting projects that disturb lead-based paint in homes, child care facilities, schools, or other buildings where children may be present that were built before 1978 must be certified and must follow specific work practices to minimize occupants’ exposure to lead hazards. All individuals performing activities that disturb painted surfaces must be certified renovators or have been trained by a certified renovator. A certified renovator must also be assigned to each renovation and perform all of the EPA-mandated responsibilities of a certified renovator.
Fines for non-compliance are anticipated to be $5,000 per day per jobsite….or more!
Register today! Class size limited to 15!
This one-day class will give you the EPA-mandated training needed for you and/or your employees to become Certified Renovators and will comply with this new federal law. For more information on the new lead-based paint law, go to The Builders
