Contractor Training, LLC of Raleigh, North Carolina Has Been Accredited by the Environment Protection Agency, EPA to Teach New Lead Based Paint Safety Course for Certified Renovators

    RALEIGH, NC, February 24, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Contractor Training, announced today that they are offering the new EPA Lead Safety Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP) courses throughout North Carolina including; Raleigh, Charlotte, Wilmington, Winston-Salem, Greensboro, Cary, and Fayetteville. This training will meet the EPA training requirements for working on residential housing or child occupied facilities built before 1978, including procedures for testing for lead. Completion of this training will qualify you for an EPA certificate as a Certified Renovator.

"As a licensed general contractor and remodeler myself, I understand how difficult it is to stay current with new rules and regulations in the construction business," said Robert Attaway, President, Contractor Training. "It seems like our industry is often singled out for burdensome rules and regulations because of the actions of a few unscrupulous characters," said Attaway. "Normally these new rules come from local governments, but this time it is coming from the Federal Government, more specifically the EPA. This is a far reaching rule and will change how repair work is done on all houses built before 1978, including the requirement for a Certified Renovator on each of these jobs to help prevent lead poisoning. EPA's fines under these environmental laws are also big and can go as high as $37,500 per day."

Contractor Training is here to help you learn how to comply with these new environmental protection act rules and hopefully give you a competitive advantage. We have scheduled classes every month in Raleigh, Charlotte or Wilmington and are willing to hold classes at your site anywhere in North or South Carolina if you have a minimum of four students.
