Please let me know if there are any programs, seminars, educational courses and so forth that you would like your trade association to offer.

EPA - LEAD CERTIFICATION
As of April 22, 2010, federal law will require that contractors that perform renovation, repairs and or painting jobs in/on residential structures built prior to 1978 or in/on childcare facilities must be certified and use lead-safe work practices. To comply contractors must be certified and must follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination. The rule applies when greater than six square feet of lead-based paint is disturbed in a room or where greater than twenty square feet of lead-based paint is disturbed on the exterior. One person from each company on the job site must be certified, therefore you do not have to certify your entire company - only supervisors and or those who work on the above referenced jobs unsupervised. Even if you or your company is not the one disturbing the paint, but you are working on a job where the above referenced square footage has been disturbed - than you must comply.

In addition to taking the 8 hour course, the EPA requires that the firm (your company) file an application with the EPA - please visit www.epa.gov to download an application.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions. The CHCC is looking into offering this certification course on a Saturday for our membership if the need is here... Please respond to let me know if your company is in need and how many attendees would be interested in taking this class.

CHCC Scholarship
The CHCC will be awarding the 2010 Scholarships to the Technical High School Recipients this Spring. Details of the Award Ceremony will be available shortly. The Association is in need of sponsor support to ensure that we can continue this scholarship program moving forward. If you are interested in being a sponsor please contact me asap.
