Contractors

 
If you do almost any kind of construction or installation work inside homes or child occupied facilities built before 1978, you need to know about the EPA's
new Lead: Renovation, Repair and Painting rule.  Visit this link - the National
Association of Home Builders and Remodelors has provided:
 
Beginning April 2010 at least one employee in your company must be trained
in these new requirements.
 
These classes are now scheduled at the Builders & Remodelers Association of Greater Ann Arbor (formerly the Home Builders Association) for certification.
 
 

January 11 or March 1  - RRP - Lead Paint Certified Renovator Class

8:30 am -5:00 pm BRAG A2 Members $135, Non-Members $165 Instructor: Harry Dryer - ETC Training Services

The U.S.Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has recently enacted new regulations affecting contractors performing renovation work in residential dwellings or child-occupied facilities built before 1978.   This regulation is called “Lead: Renovation, Repair, and Painting Program” (RRP).  Beginning in April 2010, any renovation work (including painting) which disturbs painted surfaces in residential dwellings or child-occupied facilities built before 1978, must be performed by persons trained in lead-safe work practices, with specific responsibilities for a new discipline of “Certified Renovator”. 

To become a Certified Renovator, a person must attend an 8-hour EPA-approved training course from an accredited training provider.     This is that class!
