Andrew was very knowledgeable and insightful. You could tell that he really knows this stuff well and has a lot of experience in the field of teaching it and as a result was very good with helping me learn what I needed to learn. Additionally, anytime I was unsure about something, he would help me understand not only what the correct approach was, but also why it was important. I feel like I have gained a lot more knowledge from this particular course, more so than similar courses I have taken in the past. Thank you for the wonderful experience! Great job! Randy A.

This course was well structured and even entertaining it parts. Very informative. Our trainer, Roger brought the history of lead in paint to life. Give us your practical application and experience that we could apply to our work. I thought the hands-on exercises were great.

Instructor Joseph and the class were great. I suffered from hearing loss and the instructor took the time to make sure I understood the material in a way I could easily pass.

RRP Project Binder Overview
Please note: this product is sent via Fedex to your mailing
address and will not be delivered in class, as it is for use on an RRP job site and is
separate from the class manual. Please allow 3-5 business days for shipping.
The RRP Project Binder & Tutorial is an optional record-keeping tool that is perfect for
compiling and retaining all required documents to be in compliance with the EPA Renovation
Repair and Painting Rule (40 CFR Part 745). The Binder is the essential tool for
step-by-step instructions on "how to" complete forms and letters that are included in the
Renovation Repair and Painting Rule Project Binder. It is recommended that each renovation
project retain a Project Binder & Tutorial on-site for the duration of the project. The
Project Binder is to be retained after the completion of the project for a period of three
years, accessible by the EPA for possible spontaneous audit.
For those working in EPA-authorized states including AL, DE, GA, IA, KS, MA, MS, NC, OK, OR, RI, UT, WA or WI there may be additional or alternate record-keeping requirements from what is presented in the RRP Project Binder. Please check with your local and state lead programs to confirm the work practices and record-keeping required for RRP work in your area. The following forms are incorporated into the Project Binder:
The Environmental Protection Agency has begun enforcement of lead-related issues within the residential construction industry. Reports of violations and fines are being released constantly. The primary violation is non-compliance of required paperwork.  |
