COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. — EPA’s Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting Initial Training — The federal Renovation Repair & Painting Rule requires that anyone who is paid to perform work that disturbs paint in housing and child-occupied facilities built before 1978 be trained and certified as a renovator.
A one-day training, sponsored by The Worker Institute at Cornell University and Cooperative Extension, will offer this eight-hour class on May 17 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Cooperative Extension Schoharie and Otsego Counties Education Center in Cooperstown. There will be a one-hour break for lunch (on your own or bring a bag lunch). There is no cost to attend but pre-registration is required due to a class-size limit of eight registrants. To register call/text 716-777-0303 or email acw18@cornell.edu.
The Cornell Cooperative Extension educational system enables people to improve their lives and communities through partnerships that put experience and research knowledge to work. Cornell Cooperative Extension Schoharie and Otsego Counties provides equal program and employment opportunities. Accommodations for persons with special needs may be requested by contacting Cornell Cooperative Extension Schoharie and Otsego Counties prior to the program.
