COURSE OVERVIEW

RRP recertification is required every five years in states under EPA jurisdiction. Our courses are delivered by experienced instructors, and will provide you with all the current information you need to successfully and safely perform RRP work in the field. This course is approved for purposes of certification under Section 402 of TSCA.

Topics include:

• Regulations
• Testing for Lead-Based Paint
• Review of Set-Up Practices
• Review of Prohibited Practices, Personal Protective Equipment and Dust Control
• Cleaning Activities and Checking Your Work
• Recordkeeping
• Training of Non-Certified Renovators

Your certification is revalidated once you complete this refresher course in full. If you do not complete a refresher course every five years, you will have to re-take the initial course again for certification with the EPA.

MORE ABOUT THE RRP RULE

Effective April 22, 2010, anyone who performs renovations, repairs, or painting in pre-1978 housing or child-occupied facilities must be EPA Lead Safe Certified. Individuals and firms that are not certified could face fines of up to $41,056 per day.

The RRP law applies if your project disturbs:

• More than 6 square feet of interior painted surface AND/OR
• More than 20 square feet of exterior painted surface

Companies performing this type of work must be registered with the EPA or an EPA-authorized state, and at least one person on the actual job site must be a Certified Renovator, which is achieved by taking the 8-hour Lead Renovator Initial Certification Course.  Renewal of this training course is required every 5 years by the EPA. Indviduals certified in an EPA-authorized state may be required to renew earlier than every 5 years, so check with your state Lead Based Paint regulation program for details.
