The Sustainable Building Team at Habitat for Humanity of Michigan is hosting the HOMES Green Building Summit on January 27 & 28, 2010 at the Comfort Inn & Suites Hotel and Conference Center in Mt. Pleasant, MI.
A pre-conference certification opportunity for the Lead Safe Renovator Under the New EPA RRP Rule with HUD Amendments will be offered on Tuesday, January 26, 2010. As of April, 2010, this certification is required of anyone renovating a home built prior to 1978. For more information on how this may affect Habitat affiliates, please CLICK HERE.
The primary mission of the HOMES Green Building Summit is to provide training in practical skills that apply building science principles in cold climate residential construction and accessibility in affordable housing.
Rather than teaching such concepts as the laws of thermodynamics, this summit will educate attendees on how to properly perform tasks that result in safe, efficient, durable affordable homes.
