CHAPTER NEWS
EPA RRP Regulations - Are You Prepared?
Our Arizona NKBA Chapter would like to help NARI get the word out to all contractors who will be affected by the EPA regulations that go into place April 22nd.
 
Thank you to Steve Shinn, GCP, Chairman of the NARI Lead Education Committee, who writes: "As you know, they (the regulations) come with HUGE COMPOUNDING FINES that could put any of us out of business.  Many experts are also saying that our clients may also use these regulations against us if we haven't followed the regulations properly.  They say clients could blackmail us out of our fees or move to a civil suit for potential damages.
 
"Our goal is to get the word out to as many contractors as possible in hopes of saving them from breaking a major law that they may not know exists.  We have built an informative web site to help educate contractors about all aspects of the EPA regulations and give them access to our continuing monthly EPA Lead classes.  Thankfully our new site can fully take care of class registration and credit card payment.
 
"If you are a general contractor, you should consider that you will be responsible for your sub contractors infractions if they are not EPA certified.  If they create EPA offenses you will be the responsible party as well as them.  Your subs also work on older homes without you. You would be doing them a favor by giving them a heads-up on this situation.
 
"If you are a specialty contractor please do your general contractors a favor by passing this information along to them."
 
 
Visit their new website for full information at:  www.epaLeadClass.com 
 
Let's help NARI by passing this information on to other contractors in our area that may not have heard about the EPA RRP regulations.
