Module 1
Objectives for Lead Safe Weatherization and Remodeling Training
1) To understand why it is important to minimize and control the generation of lead dust when doing weatherization work and remodeling work.
2) To understand the Department of Energy, EPA and State of Washington expectations for, and boundaries of, working with lead based paint specific to weatherization and remodeling and repair work.
3) To gain a working knowledge of the regulations governing worker protection from hazards created by disturbance of lead based painted surfaces.
4) To gain a working knowledge of tools, techniques and resources required to achieve the objectives listed above.
Upon completion of this module, participants will be able to perform Weatherization and remodeling and repair work in a manner that minimizes creation and dispersal of lead contaminated dust and protects residents, especially children, from possible lead exposure.
This module will show participants how to perform their work in a manner that creates the least amount of dust possible, and how to contain and clean up dust that they do create so that it does not spread throughout the house or to neighboring properties.

4) To gain a working knowledge of the regulations governing worker protection from hazards created by the disturbance of lead based painted surfaces.
Upon completion of this module, participants will be able to perform renovation, remodeling, and rehabilitation in a manner that minimizes creation and dispersal of lead contaminated dust and protects residents, especially children, from possible lead exposure.
This module will show contractors how to perform their work in a manner that creates the least amount of dust possible, and how to contain and clean up dust that they do create so that it does not spread throughout the house or to neighboring properties.
The techniques discussed in this module apply to work performed by a variety of contractors and employees, including plumbers, electricians, residential renovators, remodelers, and painters.
Module 3
Objectives for Lead Containment and Cleanup Training
1) To gain experience in the use of tools needed to minimize the generation of lead dust when doing work that disturbs lead based painted surfaces.
2) To learn and practice the techniques required to contain dust and debris inside a work area where lead based painted surfaces are being disturbed.
3) To become familiar with the tools and supplies necessary as well as practice the methods used to cleanup an area where hazardous amounts of lead contaminating dust have been identified or where work has been done that disturbed a lead based painted surface.
4) To become familiar with the use, bag replacement, and proper maintenance of a high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) vacuum.
Upon completion of this module, participants will be able to perform renovation, remodeling, rehabilitation and Weatherization in a manner that minimizes creation and dispersal of lead contaminated dust and protects residents, especially children, from possible lead exposure.
This module will show participants how to perform their work in a manner that creates the least amount of dust possible, and how to contain and clean up dust that they do create so that it does not spread throughout the house or to neighboring properties.
Module 4
Objectives for Lead Safe Worker Protection
