MBI Staff Completes Lead Training Certification!

We are pleased to announce that three of our MBI staff, Phil Mercuris, Tom Suckow, and Fernando Aveiga have successfully completed the course requirements of the 20-hour Visual Risk Assessor/Sampling Technician Initial Course. This curriculum and certification was developed by Iowa Department of Public Health and it was presented to us on May 5, 2010.

This certification will permit our members working on renovation jobs to be able to receive required training for State of Iowa Chapters 69 & 70. In other words, any remodeling job that disturbs one sq. ft. of paint in any type of structure built before 1978 or any child-occupied facility comes under the requirements of these regulations.

Join us in congratulating the MBI staff for receiving this Iowa Department of Public Health certification that will assist in serving our membership and the community.
