About Lead Based Paint

Lead-based paint is the most significant source of lead exposure in the U.S. today; most homes built before 1960 contain heavily leaded paint and some homes built as recently as 1978 may also contain lead paint.

Harmful exposures can be created when lead-based paint is improperly removed by dry scraping, sanding, or open-flame burning. Activities like sanding, cutting, and demolition can create hazardous lead dust and chips by disturbing lead-based paint.

In 1978, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) banned the sale of lead-based paint for use in residences. Both the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) have promulgated regulations that impose significant requirements, effective September 15, 2000, concerning lead-based paint hazard notification, evaluation and reduction for landlords and/or property owners of targeted housing.
