Cecilia was an amazing instructor and the 8-hour / 1-day course was a very efficient method of obtaining the Initial Lead Renovator Certificate Robert (Bo) K.

The Instructor was Highly Educated and Well Organized. From the Start I was fully attentive to the seriousness of Lead, and the terrible effects it has on Everything! I was amazed with the amount of information all crammed into 8 hours, I honestly thought there was a full college Semester worth of material that could be studied and learned. I was humbled with the deep knowledge and doctorate level professional accumulation and display. I diligently took notes, taking pictures of the slide show topics. Wound up with 8 fully written pages of notes, and 33 pictures of slides ( I missed a couple slides do to amount of time spent and my inability to write fast.) By the End of the day and when It came down to test time I was overwhelmed and honestly a little bit panicked. Finally in the end the instructor took the time to go over the test and help with certain questions that became more clear and understanding. I do wish All Housing Authorities, and HUD owned and operated facilities would send all Managers, and even Assistant Managers to this training to help Management understand a little more what we maintenance have to work with. I wish this course was at the very least two weeks longer, that way we could dive more deep into the Societies, Environmental, and Global Countries Affects that Lead that is still in used today especially in Ocean fairing part of society. This class was definitely a win for good, and the more people attend the more good would develop and grow. Thank you, Well Done! Sean O.

RRP Project Binder Overview
Please note: this product is sent via Fedex to your mailing
address and will not be delivered in class, as it is for use on an RRP job site and is
separate from the class manual. Please allow 3-5 business days for shipping.
The RRP Project Binder & Tutorial is an optional record-keeping tool that is perfect for
compiling and retaining all required documents to be in compliance with the EPA Renovation
Repair and Painting Rule (40 CFR Part 745). The Binder is the essential tool for
step-by-step instructions on "how to" complete forms and letters that are included in the
Renovation Repair and Painting Rule Project Binder. It is recommended that each renovation
project retain a Project Binder & Tutorial on-site for the duration of the project. The
Project Binder is to be retained after the completion of the project for a period of three
years, accessible by the EPA for possible spontaneous audit.
For those working in EPA-authorized states including AL, DE, GA, IA, KS, MA, MS, NC, OK, OR, RI, UT, WA or WI there may be additional or alternate record-keeping requirements from what is presented in the RRP Project Binder. Please check with your local and state lead programs to confirm the work practices and record-keeping required for RRP work in your area. The following forms are incorporated into the Project Binder:
The Environmental Protection Agency has begun enforcement of lead-related issues within the residential construction industry. Reports of violations and fines are being released constantly. The primary violation is non-compliance of required paperwork.  |
