What does the lead pre-rule require renovators to do?

  1. Offer financial assistance for renovations

  2. Distribute a lead pamphlet to occupants

  3. Conduct blood tests on residents

  4. Remove all paint from pre-1978 homes

The correct answer is: Distribute a lead pamphlet to occupants

The lead pre-rule requires renovators to distribute a lead pamphlet to occupants because it ensures that individuals living in or around homes where renovation is taking place are informed about the potential risks of lead exposure. This pamphlet, often titled "Renovate Right," educates occupants about lead-based paint hazards, especially in homes built before 1978 when the use of lead-based paints was banned for residential use. This requirement is part of an effort to increase awareness and provide necessary information to homeowners and tenants, allowing them to take informed steps to protect their health and safety during renovation activities. It emphasizes the importance of communication regarding lead exposure risks and helps promote safer practices in homes that may contain lead-based paint.
