The lead painted surfaces in these facilities is monitored and maintained in accordance with the federal EPA’s (Renovation, Repair, and Painting Final Rule – 40 CFR 745) rules and regulations. In addition, maintenance and removal of lead paint is conducted on a continuing basis throughout the District.
 
The leaded dust generated by traditional renovation work can cause lead poisoning in children. It can also poison pregnant women, you, other workers and even pets. Practical changes in work practices can minimize and contain dust. The use of lead-safe work practices make the job safer and reduce your liability exposure.
 
The following is a brochure published by the Federal government to assist the public in understanding the dangers of lead paint. It is also available at each facility.
