The purpose of this course is to equip Clearance Technicians with the specialized skills necessary to conduct accurate and defensible residential lead clearance examinations for dust wipes only, in NON-abatement jobs. The course follows EPA curriculum and is customized to Ohio regulations.
This one-day class allows you to perform clearance reports for NON-abatement jobs (no poisoned child involved/non-lead hazard control order in effect). You learn to take dust wipe samples only.
It does NOT allow you to test paint or soil.
