August 16, 2006:  In May of 2005, New Jersey adopted regulations requiring the lead safe maintenance of multiple dwellings constructed prior to 1978

Lead based paint presents a serious problem in a large portion of New Jersey’s housing stock.  N.J.A.C. 5:10-6.6 designates certain responsibilities to the property owners of multiple dwellings, among them:

On-going evaluation and maintenance:   A visual examination for deteriorated paint shall be performed by the owner at unit turnover or every twelve months, whichever comes first.  Deteriorated paint and the causes of deterioration shall be promptly and safely repaired.  The causes of paint deterioration shall be diagnosed and corrected.  Dust wipe testing shall be performed when the work is complete to ensure that the lead dust levels do not exceed established levels.

Training Requirements:  All owners or employees of the owner performing visual examinations or undertaking corrective action or maintenance work shall complete a one‑day training course on safe building maintenance practices and applicable New Jersey law offered by an approved training provider.

Lead Safe Work Practices:  All work undertaken to repair or stabilize deteriorated paint and any other work that will disturb painted surfaces shall be performed by individuals who have met the training requirements stated above.  After the completion of any lead safe work, wipe samples must be collected by trained staff to determine that dust levels do not exceed standard levels.
