Training, Certification, and Work Practice Requirements– Effective after April 22, 2010.
• Firms must be certified.
• Renovators must be trained.
• Lead-safe work practices must be followed. Examples of these practices include:
• Work-area containment to prevent dust and debris from leaving the work area.
• Prohibition of certain work practices like open-flame burning and the use of power tools without HEPA exhaust control.
• Thorough clean up followed by a verification procedure to minimize exposure to lead-based paint hazards.
• The training, certification, and work practice requirements do not apply where the firm obtained a signed statement from the owner that all of the following are met:
• The renovation will occur in the owner’s residence;
• No child under age 6 resides there;
• No woman who is pregnant resides there;
• The housing is not a child-occupied facility; and
• The owner acknowledges that the renovation firm will not be required to use the work practices contained in the rule.
