Lead-Based Paint Renovator Courses

 

The Oregon Home Builders Association in partnership with the National Center for Healthy Housing is now offering the EPA Approved Lead-Based Paint Renovator Courses!

Background: The EPA's Renovator, Repair and Painting Rule applies to all renovations performed for compensation in pre-1978 "target housing" and "child occupied facilities" that disturb the paint, stain, shellac and/or varnish in that structure.  Work on these structures needs to be completed in accordance with Lead Safe Work practices and preformed by an EPA Certified Renovator.  This rule will go into effect on April 22, 2010 and will be fully enforceable. 

 

For more information on how this ruling will affect your business practices, please click here for a comprehensive summary of the ruling.

 
To become a Certified Renovator, you must take the 8-Hour EPA approved Renovator Course taught by an EPA Accredited Trainer.  The Oregon Home Builders Association has partnered with the National Center for Healthy Housing to provide EPA accredited Trainers for this course.
