Generally, yes. All portable classrooms that are constructed in a manufacturing facility are required to comply with the law. Portable classrooms that meet the definition of a site-built REF are also required to comply with the law. A site-built REF is a relocatable educational facility that is constructed at the first installation site and where the curriculum required under § 28.002 of the Education Code is taught.

My school district bought or leased non-certified site-built REFs prior to January 1, 2010. Can the school district renew the leases on these classrooms? Can the school district sell these classrooms to be used as classrooms? No. Site-built REFs that do not bear an IHB certification decal may not be sold or leased as a REF on or after January 1, 2010.
