The clock is ticking for contractors, trades, property owners and real estate professionals.
On April 22, 2010 the EPA RRP Lead Rule will be in full effect.
Named 40 CFR Part 745, this law requires that renovations performed for compensation on pre-1978 homes, must be done by EPA Certified Firms using Certified Renovators. This includes contractors as well as landlords and property managers. The EPA states that if you are caught working illegally they can fine you and even impose jail time.
The fines for noncompliance are up to $37,500 per violation.
The challenge that faces the residential construction industry is currently there are only approximately 100+ certified companies that 
are approved to train. As we approach the deadline, the availabilty of trainers will be severely limited. The demand will be so intense that it will be impossible to train the estimated 200,000 firms before 4.22.10. It appears that the EPA is unwilling to extend the effective deadline. The training requirements dictate that the ratio for teacher to student is 1 to 6. Some trainers will be allowed slightly higher ratios. This limit will restrict the amount of seats available for training.
The Contractor Coaching Partnership realizes the gravity of this situation and we will help expedite training for contractors and associated companies. We are seeking out training venues and trainers interested in our mission. We will be setting up venues throughout the year to train as many contractors, associates and property owners as possible. In addition to the training we will offer implementation coaching and training to insure that the EPA lead rule requirements can be seamlessly installed into your business.
Sign up for our training venues to learn how to differentiate your company and please don't chance the EPA shutting down your project, imposing fines or exposing your customer to a project tagged with an EPA violation.
