HPD recently issued a release that highlighted new standards related to lead-based paint hazards. On Dec. 1, the standard to define paint as lead-based was cut in half. This new standard, the strictest in the nation, is expected to prompt an increase in lead violations issued by HPD inspectors. HPD expects inspectors to identify more buildings that may pose a risk of lead poisoning, so that property owners can take proactive measures to protect children.
