CONN-NAHRO presents special Lead Training:
“Becoming a Certified Renovator”
Required under new EPA Lead Rule

Is your agency involved with renovation, repair or painting work? If so, there is a new EPA regulation that will affect you and/or your agency if painted surfaces will be disturbed during your work.

http://www.epa.gov/lead/pubs/sbcomplianceguide.pdf

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, agencies must have at least one “Certified Renovator” assigned to jobs where lead based paint is disturbed. There are communication, paint testing, work practice and final cleaning issues that will be new to many.

 

CONN-NAHRO is pleased to offer a unique training opportunity in conjunction with ATC Associates and with the financial support of Connecticut Housing Finance Authority (CHFA).
