In addition, this rule requires notification on the nature of the renovation activities in certain circumstances involving multi-family housing. This rule ensures that owners and occupants of target housing are provided information concerning potential hazards of lead-based paint exposure before certain renovations are begun on that housing. In addition to providing general information on the health hazards associated with exposure to lead, the lead hazard information pamphlet advises owners and occupants to take appropriate precautions to avoid exposure to lead-contaminated dust and lead-based paint debris that are sometimes generated during renovations. The Agency believes that the distribution of the pamphlet will help to reduce the exposures which cause serious lead poisonings, especially in children under age 6, who are particularly susceptible to the hazards of lead.
