Renovation activities that disturb lead-based paint can create dangerous lead paint dust. The purpose of lead dust clearance is to determine if the area is safe for re-occupancy.

In order to ensure the safety of the tenants for any renovation project in older housing, it is highly recommended that a Dust Sampling Technician provides their services to ensure that proper lead dust cleaning procedures have been followed.

This Lead Dust Sampling Technician certification allows individuals to conduct clearance tests following renovation projects to ensure that proper lead dust cleaning procedures have been followed. This training course concludes with the 25-question technician certification exam and is valid for 5 years. EPA Dust Sampling Technicians must work for an EPA Lead-Safe Certified Firm. 

 

There are 5 steps to become an EPA Lead Dust Sampling Technician:

  1. Get registered for an EPA-approved lead Dust sampling technician course
  2. Submit a Firm application to the EPA on behalf of your company
  3. Complete the training in a public or private workshop
  4. Pass the 25-question certification exam given in class
  5. Receive your Firm Certificate from the EPA and you're in the clear!
