Lead Safety for Renovation, Repair, and Painting

RSVP by APRIL 1, 2017

EPA's Lead Renovation, Repair and Painting Rule (RRP Rule) requires that firms performing renovation, repair, and painting projects that disturb lead-based paint in homes, child care facilities and pre-schools built before 1978 have their firm certified by Georgia EPD for work conducted in Georgia, use certified renovators who are trained by EPD-approved training providers and follow lead-safe work practices.

The RRP class will cover the following:

 Why should I be concerned about lead paint?
 Regulations
 Before beginning work
 Contain dust during work
 Cleaning activities and checking your work
 Recordkeeping
 Training non-certified renovation workers
 Hands-on Activities to clearly demonstrate how to set up job
 Exam at the end of the day. Students must score at least 70% to receive certification

The class is scheduled from 8:00am-5:00pm.

Please keep in mind that taking the training class is only Step 1. Students must register with GA EPD and pay a fee for registration. The company must also be registered with GA EPD and registration fee paid. Please visit http://epd.georgia.gov/lead-based-paint-technical-guidance for additional details.

Fee per student: $250.00 (AAHBA Members) or $300.00 for non-members

Must have at least 4 students to hold class.

Lecture and exam are not limited to the number of students, but the hands on activity is limited to 8 at one time. If the class has more than 8 attendees, we can plan to stay later to accommodate 8 students at a time for hands on activity or schedule for another day.

Attendees must have government issued photo identification to take class.
