Protecting Your Home and Environment
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) established the Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule to protect residents from lead-based paint hazards during renovation activities. This rule requires that any renovation, repair, or painting project disturbing lead-based paint in pre-1978 homes be performed by lead-safe certified contractors. Certification involves rigorous training on lead-safe work practices, ensuring that contractors can minimize and contain lead dust and debris during projects.
