LEAD-BASED PAINT SAFETY

This one-day class on lead paint safety for RRP (Renovation, Repair and Painting) is suitable training for the Initial Renovator Course as well as the Refresher Course for individuals licensed as lead abatement supervisors, and for organizations licensed as lead abatement firms. The class is taught by Southface, an EPA-accredited RRP training provider.


The EPA rule of April 22, 2008 that requires the use of lead-safe practices is aimed at preventing lead poisoning. Under the rule, beginning in April 2010, contractors performing renovation, repair and painting projects that disturb lead-based paint in homes, child care facilities, and schools built before 1978 must be certified and must follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination.

PLEASE NOTE:  At this time, Southface only provides the course in English.  We can, however, administer the certification exam in Spanish.
