Lead Renovator Refresher Class

Description

The EPA requires Certified Renovators take a refresher training course to maintain compliance with the lead Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP) rule.  This HBASE educational class will be presented with an EPA-Certified Trainer and continuing education credits will be available to licensed Sioux Falls contractors.

The RRP rule affects contractors, property managers and others who disturb known or presumed lead-based paint during renovation. The term renovation covers all activities done for compensation that disturb painted surfaces including most repair, remodeling and maintenance activities, such as window replacement, weatherization and demolition. The RRP rule applies to all renovation work performed in residential houses, apartments and child-occupied facilities such as schools and day-care centers built before 1978. 

The EPA has the ability to fine up to $37,500 per offense, per day to anyone who is not compliant.
