The instructor made an otherwise boring class bearable and taught all of the essential information you would need to know Mario P.

Thanks. Michael V.

Very informative. The only comment is for the instructor to not be so negative. He apologized for how awful and boring the class was going to be. It was not that bad at all. It was confusing that you still had to pay the State to get your actual certification. The class description made it seem as though you would leave as a certified renovator. 100 W Towne Ridge Parkway, Salt Lake City, UT 84070

The Continuing Education (CE) Program at the Rocky Mountain Center for Occupational and Environmental Health (RMCOEH) is a diverse, interdisciplinary program that has provided courses in Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) for Region 8 since the Center was funded in 1978. It continues to be a primary OSH CE resource in Region 8 (UT, CO, MT, ND, SD, WY). Other than the RMCOEH, there are few opportunities in this region for comparable continuing education that covers such a wide variety of subject areas from a single provider to address this trend. These subject areas cover industrial hygiene, occupational medicine, occupational nursing, safety and ergonomics, asbestos, lead, and hazardous waste. This program is authorized to offer OSHA Education Center courses as well as National Institute for Environmental Health Sciences courses.
RRP Project Binder Overview
Please note: this product is sent via Fedex to your mailing
address and will not be delivered in class, as it is for use on an RRP job site and is
separate from the class manual. Please allow 3-5 business days for shipping.
The RRP Project Binder & Tutorial is an optional record-keeping tool that is perfect for
compiling and retaining all required documents to be in compliance with the EPA Renovation
Repair and Painting Rule (40 CFR Part 745). The Binder is the essential tool for
step-by-step instructions on "how to" complete forms and letters that are included in the
Renovation Repair and Painting Rule Project Binder. It is recommended that each renovation
project retain a Project Binder & Tutorial on-site for the duration of the project. The
Project Binder is to be retained after the completion of the project for a period of three
years, accessible by the EPA for possible spontaneous audit.
For those working in EPA-authorized states including AL, DE, GA, IA, KS, MA, MS, NC, OK, OR, RI, UT, WA or WI there may be additional or alternate record-keeping requirements from what is presented in the RRP Project Binder. Please check with your local and state lead programs to confirm the work practices and record-keeping required for RRP work in your area. The following forms are incorporated into the Project Binder:
The Environmental Protection Agency has begun enforcement of lead-related issues within the residential construction industry. Reports of violations and fines are being released constantly. The primary violation is non-compliance of required paperwork.  |
