This note is in support of the proposed rule making of EPA to include renovator training under RRP as a qualifier for lead related training for persons preparing for RRP principal instructor. I am part of a small cohort in Mississippi who received the then proposed (and now EPA approved) RRP renovator training from the Alliance for Healthy Homes in June of this year, followed by the 16 hour lead worker training in Fall. I am an experienced engineer and facility manager with a solid hands-on background in construction and renovation. I found that the lead worker training, while excellent in presentation and delivery, did little no more than reinforce and supplement the knowledge gained in the renovator training. Accredited renovator training would be sufficient. Thanks for your attention, David V. Reynolds 504 481 2627
