Federal law requires disclosure of known lead-based paint hazards for residential dwellings built before which year?
- a.1968
- b.1978✓
- c.1988
- d.1992
The federal Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act requires sellers and landlords of housing built before 1978 to disclose known lead-based paint and hazards and to provide the EPA pamphlet. Lead-based paint was banned for residential use in 1978, so pre-1978 homes are the concern. The 1968 date relates to the Fair Housing Act, and 1988 and 1992 are not the lead-paint threshold.
