24 CFR Part 35

24 CFR Part 35 is a regulation by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) that focuses on lead-based paint hazards in federally owned or financed housing. It requires property owners and managers to identify, manage, and reduce lead risks, especially in homes built before 1978, when lead paint was banned. This regulation aims to protect children and families from lead poisoning, ensuring safe living environments by mandating inspections, disclosures, and safe remediation practices. Overall, it establishes important health and safety standards concerning lead exposure in residential properties.
