EPA Enacted Lead Renovation, Repair and Painting Rule Requires Specialized Training
MSBO is now offering training that will certify workers in compliance with the recent Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) enacted Lead Renovation, Repair and Painting (RR&P) Rule. The rule has lead component identification obligations, tenant and parent notification requirements, and stringent work practice/cleanup and record keeping requirements.
School districts should consider providing this training to at least one maintenance staff in order to ensure regulatory compliance in the event that in-house personnel need to disturb painted components within applicable spaces. The training will last for a period of five years before a refresher course is required.
There are currently two workshops to choose from: January 25, 2010 or March 22, 2010. The classes will be held from 8 am to 5 pm at the MSBO office, 1001 Centennial Way, Lansing, MI.
Registration fee: $200. Register Now.
AHERA Training
AHERA Designated Person Training - January 13, 2010
MSBO Office • Lansing; 8:00 AM-5:00 PM
Many school districts and other employers do not have a designated person or have not provided training for the current designated person in asbestos handling. The EPA requires a designated person receive “adequate” training to manage the asbestos program. This one-day workshop will provide an excellent knowledge base of the AHERA law and a common sense approach to managing asbestos and the asbestos written plan.
Registration fee: $125

MSBO Office • Lansing; Each day 8:00 AM-5:00 PM
