Virginia Register of Regulations, November 8, 2010, Page 545-6:
‘Mold Inspector (Assessor) course requirements B.’ – The inspector/assessor must have greater knowledge of building science and microbes that the workers or supervisors, but must comprehend the requirements for remediation work practices, worker safety, and public safety. Inspectors (assessors) must also have knowledge of other hazards such as asbestos-containing materials, lead-based paint, and other materials that may be encountered during remediation. The training topic requirements should be reconsidered and expanded. Other states require 40 to 60 hours of documented training in mold and remediation procedures.
