EPA Lead Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP) Certification

Course Introduction

Common renovation, repair, and painting activities that disturb lead-based paint (like sanding, cutting, replacing windows, and more) can release hazardous lead which can be harmful to adult and children.

The EPA’s Lead Renovation, Repair & Painting Final Rule (40 CFR 745) requires that renovations conducted for compensation be performed by “Certified firm” using “Certified Renovators”.

This is especially important for renovation firms that work in homes or other child occupied facilities that were built prior to 1978.
