Frequently Asked Questions
Who needs EPA lead certification?▼
Contractors working in pre-1978 housing and child-occupied facilities. If you disturb paint or dust that might contain lead, you must be EPA RRP-certified.
What buildings require RRP compliance?▼
Pre-1978 houses, apartments, and child-occupied buildings (schools, daycares). If built after 1978, RRP rules don't apply because lead paint was banned.
What's on the exam?▼
The exam tests EPA RRP Rule knowledge: lead hazards, work practices, containment, waste disposal, recordkeeping, and cleaning verification. 8-hour course + exam, or self-study then exam.
How often must I recertify?▼
Every 5 years. You can recertify by taking a 4-hour refresher course plus exam, or retake the full 8-hour course.
What's the fine for non-compliance?▼
EPA penalties can reach $37,500+ per violation. States and local agencies can impose additional fines. It's serious — use certified contractors.
What are prohibited work practices?▼
Open-flame burning, high-temperature heat guns, dry sanding/scraping without containment, and demolition without containment. These practices spread lead hazards.
