Lead Safety CT | Connecticut

Connecticut – Lead-based paint was prohibited in 1978, but homes constructed before then likely still hold in leaded paint. Children, especially under the age of 6, are most at risk from even little amounts of lead, and the damage can be last. But there are things you can do to protect children. Register to find out more about the causes and outcomes of lead poisoning, how to help avoid it, and how to bring in the fittest options for the community, your clients, and your family.

EPA’s Renovation, Remodeling & Painting (RRP) rule

Those who have already accomplished a one-day “Lead Safe Work Practices” course or popularly known as lead abatement certification are eligible to consummate the Remodelers Refresher course. Whatever prior “Lead Safe Work Practices” training isn’t sufficient to cope with the necessities of this new Federal Law. After April 22, 2010, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA,) or a state agency implementing the rules, can fine a company $37,500 per violation, per day. The new EPA’s RRP rules also generate companies vulnerable to the scourge of a civil suit for noncompliance.
