Moderate-Risk Deleading Training
The Massachusetts Department of Public Health's Chidhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program's (CLPPP's) regulations allow people who are not deleaders to do moderate-risk deleading. The purpose of these regulations is to lower the costs of deleading, with the ultimate goal of having more children's homes being made lead-safe.
Who can do moderate-risk deleading work?
Property owners and their agents
Before beginning any deleading work, they must complete the course required by CLPPP and pass a CLPPP exam. Owners and agents who pass will receive a certificate from CLPPP as proof that they are authorized to do this work.
What else do I need to know about the moderate-risk deleading training class?
The course is one-day long. It covers safety procedures, cleanup, and what is required to meet the lead law and regulation requirements. Carpentry skills are not covered in the course. Owners and agents considering doing moderate-risk deleading work should have carpentry skills. Individuals authorized to perform moderate-risk deleading activities are automatically authorized to perform low-risk deleading activities, including encapsulation.

Federal Law re: Lead
Lead Renovation Law, Repair and Painting Rule (RRP Rule) went into effect on April 22, 2010.
Beginning in April 2010, federal law requires contractors that disturb lead-based paint in homes, child care facilities, and schools built before 1978 to be certified and follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination.
Older homes, child care facilities, and schools are more likely to contain lead-based paint. Surfaces that are determined to be free of lead-based paint are exempt from the Rule. You have three options to determine if the surfaces to be distributed contain lead based paint:
- You must assume that lead-based paint is present and follow lead-safe work practices during the renovation, repair or painting job.
- You may also test for lead using a lead test kit approved by the EPA available at most hardware stores.
- You can hire a certified lead inspector or risk assessor to check for lead-based paint.
