## Abstract

The Agency is extending the certifications of certain renovators under the Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) rule. In January 2015, the Agency published a proposed rule that would, among other things, change the requirements for the refresher training course that renovators must take to become recertified. EPA is extending certifications of thousands of renovators that will otherwise expire before that rule can be finalized. EPA is taking this action so that, if and when the changes in the proposed rule are finalized, these renovators can take advantage of the changes.
