Learn About Lead Paint Rule by Purchasing Audio Seminar

Remodelers, home builders associations and local NAHB Remodelers councils who missed last month’s NAHB audio seminar examining the new lead paint rule governing the work of professional remodelers where lead paint is involved can now purchase the seminar online.

Presented by NAHB Remodelers and The NAHB University of Housing, “The EPA’s New Lead Paint Rule: What it Means for You” was an hour-long seminar that explained in detail what the new rule covers, how to be in compliance and where to find additional information.

The cost of the seminar is $79, and includes access to the streaming audio file of the original broadcast, handout materials and a marketing bonus until Oct. 28, 2009 (one year after the seminar was held).

The seminar recording includes comments by:

Brindley Byrd, CGR, CAPS, of QX2 Contracting in Lansing, Mich., an advocate for the remodeling industry and an active member of the NAHB Remodelers Lead Based Paint Task Force.
Bob Hanbury, CGR, of House of Hanbury in Newington, Conn., a member of the Connecticut Department of Public Safety State Codes and Standards Committee and who has represented the remodeling industry during discussions and presentations on lead paint with HUD and the EPA.
Matt Watkins, NAHB environmental policy analyst, who has been integral in writing several comment letters about the rule to the EPA.
