A very good teacher given the fact that he kept me engaged in a eight hour class about lead safety. Melanie W.
attended on May 4, 2023
i was not expecting this class for 8 hours to be as interesting as it was. He did a really good job getting everyone involved and was very informative. Our company does not deal with the lead paint we are an asphalt paving company but i did find out alot of good information about lead i was unaware of. The Flint Michigan situation for example i was so unaware of the situation. The harm to children also made me sad. I am SO GLAD that the people who do have to deal with this are being educated and informed and made responsible so that they will do the right thing and handle their jobs accordingly. Thank you John and i am so so glad i did good on the test i was very worried but since you instructed so well i guess that says it all about your skills :) continue to help the children with all this knowledge i appreciate you.

I think Mr. Schafer is an outstanding instructor, very knowledgeable and in the materials he taught and kept the class engaged. His teaching style was perfect for the vast differences in class demographics (age, experience, types of work, skill set,). I would take other courses taught by Mr. Schafer. Wayne D.

The class was very good. I wish that there was more on the out side of the house that could of been expanded. I get not everyone works on the interior of the house and that's where most of the home renovation is done and that where people are more prone to getting sick from. Micah was a very good teacher I told him that the best rating out of 5 is not 5 it is 4.9 he kinda chuckled. Terry C.

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

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.  |
