Lead-Based Paint Activities Regulation

The Lead-Based Paint Activities Regulation sets rules for managing and controlling lead paint, especially in older buildings. Its goal is to protect people from lead poisoning by ensuring safe practices during renovation, repair, or hazard removal activities. The regulation requires trained and certified professionals to handle lead-based paint, follow specific work procedures, and contain lead dust and debris. It also mandates clear communication with property owners and tenants about lead hazards. Overall, the regulation helps prevent health problems, especially in children, by overseeing responsible lead paint management during construction and maintenance work.
