The Environmental Protection Agency requires the use of lead-safe practices to prevent lead poisoning. Beginning in 2010, contractors performing renovation, repair and painting projects that disturb lead-based paint in homes, child care facilities and schools built before 1978 must be certified and must follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination. This one-day class on lead safety for Renovation, Repair and Painting /RRP) is the Initial Renovator Course. Attendees will learn how to comply with EPA's Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule, and HUD's Lead Safe Housing Rule. rThe class is taught by Southface, a State of Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) accredited RRP training provider. On July 5, 2011, Georgia became the 12th state to receive authorization from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to administer and enforce EPA's Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Program. GA EPD is authorized to administer the federal RRP program in Georgia.
