Prepare Now for the Lead Paint Rule

NAHB has a number of resources to help its members comply with the new lead paint rule. Remodelers and builders who do renovation or remodeling projects in homes built before 1978 must soon comply with new lead paint safety requirements set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Any company doing work in these homes must be certified, follow specific work practices and keep detailed records.  At least one employee in these companies must be trained in these new requirements by April 2010.
