Looking for accurate information about the EPA RRP rule? RRP Enforcement Has Started, But You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet!
Legitimate and professional contractors seeking to level the playing field of doing business have been expressing their desire for enforcement of the new EPA RRP rule. Their biggest gripe has been that those not following the rule maintain a pricing advantage because those who do comply must include the additional related overhead, material and labor costs. This concern is further validated because the EPA so far has done little in the way of enforcement.
It will take time, but enforcement is on the way. Momentum in this area will likely be caused by the residual effects of the RRP rule, not because the EPA chooses to ramp up its enforcement efforts. Contractors and the EPA better get ready though. Catalysts like the ones listed below are coming and will force contractors to comply. At the same time these catalysts will increase the number of violations reported to and requiring action by the EPA and or by those states that have assumed administration and enforcement of the rule.
