KNOW ALL PERSONS BY THESE PRESENTS, that I, [principal_name] (the "Principal"), a resident of the State of [state_law], being of sound mind and under no duress, do hereby make, constitute, and appoint [agent_name] (the "Agent" or "Attorney-in-Fact") as my true and lawful Agent, to act for me and in my name, place, and stead, with respect to the powers and authority described herein.
WHEREAS, the Principal desires to appoint the Agent to act on the Principal's behalf with respect to certain matters, as more particularly described herein; and
WHEREAS, the Agent is willing to accept such appointment and to act in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this instrument; and
WHEREAS, the Principal intends this Power of Attorney to be governed by the laws of the State of [state_law] and all applicable provisions of the Uniform Power of Attorney Act as adopted therein.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Principal hereby declares and grants this Power of Attorney as follows:
The Principal hereby appoints [agent_name] as the Principal's Attorney-in-Fact (the "Agent"). The Agent shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Principal in all matters described in this instrument, subject to any limitations expressly set forth herein. The Agent shall exercise such powers in a fiduciary capacity, in good faith, and in the best interests of the Principal at all times. The Agent shall act with the care, competence, and diligence ordinarily exercised by agents in similar circumstances and shall not engage in any self-dealing or conflict of interest unless expressly authorized herein.
The authority granted to the Agent under this Power of Attorney is designated as follows and shall be construed in accordance with the applicable type of authority selected below.
Subject to the type of authority designated above, the Principal hereby grants the Agent the following specific powers and authority: [powers_granted] The Agent shall exercise the foregoing powers prudently and in the Principal's best interests. In the event of any ambiguity regarding the scope of the powers granted herein, such ambiguity shall be resolved in favor of granting the Agent the authority reasonably necessary to carry out the Principal's stated intentions. The Agent may employ and compensate, at the Principal's expense, such professionals, advisors, accountants, and attorneys as the Agent deems reasonably necessary to assist in the performance of the Agent's duties hereunder.
This Power of Attorney shall become effective as of 2026-04-07, subject to any springing provisions described in Section 2 above.
This Power of Attorney shall expire and terminate automatically on 2026-04-07, unless sooner revoked by the Principal or terminated by operation of law. Upon the expiration date, the Agent's authority under this instrument shall cease immediately, and the Agent shall have no further power to act on the Principal's behalf. Any actions taken by the Agent after the expiration date shall be void and of no legal effect.
Any third party who receives a copy of this Power of Attorney, whether original, photocopy, or electronically transmitted, may rely upon the authority granted herein and may act in accordance with the Agent's instructions without liability to the Principal or the Principal's estate, heirs, or assigns. No third party shall be required to inquire into the validity or continuing effectiveness of this instrument, nor shall any third party be liable for acting in good faith reliance upon this Power of Attorney. A third party who refuses to honor this Power of Attorney may be liable for attorneys' fees and damages as provided by applicable law. The Principal hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any third party who acts in good faith reliance upon the representations and authority of the Agent under this instrument.
The Principal reserves the right to revoke, amend, or modify this Power of Attorney at any time, provided that the Principal has the legal capacity to do so. Any revocation, amendment, or modification shall be in writing and shall be effective upon delivery of written notice to the Agent and to any third party who has previously relied upon this instrument. Until a third party receives actual written notice of revocation, such third party may continue to rely upon the authority granted herein and shall not be liable for any actions taken in good faith reliance upon this Power of Attorney prior to receiving such notice. Upon revocation, the Agent shall promptly return to the Principal all documents, records, property, and funds in the Agent's possession or control that belong to or relate to the affairs of the Principal.
This Power of Attorney shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of [state_law], including but not limited to the Uniform Power of Attorney Act as adopted by the State of [state_law] and any amendments thereto. The Principal consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of [state_law] for the resolution of any disputes arising out of or relating to this instrument. If any provision of this Power of Attorney is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, such provision shall be severed from this instrument and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
The Agent is hereby authorized to execute all documents required by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP) Rule and any North Carolina-specific environmental regulations. This includes the delivery of the 'Renovate Right' pamphlet and the signing of certified record-keeping forms for lead-based paint activities in target housing or child-occupied facilities as defined by N.C. law.
The Agent is empowered to manage all personnel-related financial obligations in accordance with N.C. Gen. Stat. § 95-25.1 et seq. This includes, but is not limited to, the verification of hours worked by painters and contractors, the timely payment of wages, and the maintenance of records required to demonstrate compliance with state-mandated breaks and overtime provisions.
In accordance with N.C. Gen. Stat. § 75-1.1, the Agent is authorized to negotiate and settle consumer disputes regarding color matching, VOC emissions, or property damage. The Agent shall act in good faith to prevent any claims of unfair or deceptive trade practices by maintaining clear communication and signed approvals for all project variations, including primer requirements, coat counts, and square footage adjustments.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have executed this Power of Attorney on the date first written above.

In the North Carolina painting industry, being away from the job site shouldn't stop your business. Whether you are managing lead-paint remediation under EPA RRP rules or handling color approvals and material procurement, a Power of Attorney allows a trusted agent to sign contracts, pull permits, and resolve site-specific disputes on your behalf. This ensures your project timelines remain intact and your compliance with NC legal standards is maintained even when you are unavailable.
Yes, provided the Power of Attorney explicitly grants authority over environmental compliance and regulatory documentation. The agent must still ensure that the actual work is performed by EPA-certified individuals as required by federal and NC law.
A POA does not provide immunity, but it can mitigate risk by ensuring a designated agent is available to resolve color disputes and property damage claims immediately, preventing the 'deceptive' or 'unfair' delays that often trigger litigation under N.C. Gen. Stat. § 75-1.1.
In North Carolina, a Power of Attorney relative to business operations usually does not need to be recorded unless the agent is required to sign real estate deeds or other documents related to the transfer of real property on behalf of the painting company.
Your agent can be authorized to manage payroll and ensure compliance with N.C. Gen. Stat. § 95-25.1, including the mandatory rest breaks and overtime calculations required for your painting crew, ensuring you avoid state-level employment penalties.
