I I A SORE THAN 12 mg/cm, with x-ray fluorescence or positive with Na7S Is ILLEGAL w Disclaimer Concerning Lead Determination Report The information contained in this report concerning the presence or absence of lead paint does not constitute a comprehensive lead paint inspection. The surfaces tested represent only a portion of those surfaces which would be tested to determine whether the premises are in compliance with the Massachusetts Lead Poisoning Prevention Law (Massachusetts General Laws, chapter 111, sections 190-199A. ) Serious lead poisoning hazards are created when materials containing lead paint are disturbed, unless proper safety guidelines are followed. Therefore, Massachusetts law requires that: Any deleading work done on the premises must be done by a certified or licensed deleader. Letters of Compliance will be .withheld if unauthorized deleading has occurred. Any renovating or rehabilitation of premises containing dangerous levels of lead paint must be done in compliance with the procedures set forth in the regulations issued by the Department of Labor and Industries (454 CMR 22. 11) , including sealing off the work area from adjacent areas, and using a HEPA vacuum and TSP for final clean-up. Any deleading work done on the basis of this report will not qualify the owner or occupant for a state tax credit, nor will the cost of such deleading be reimbursable under any state loan or grant programs. In order to qualify for such programs, the premises must first be subject to a comprehensive lead paint inspection. If a child under six resides in this dwelling, the owner may face criminal or civil liabilities unless all lead paint violations have been corrected. This lead report cannot assure that the property owner has met his or her obligations under the law. It is unlawful for rental property owners to use the presence of lead as the basis for discrimination against tenants or potential tenants with young children. Areas where there are peeling, chipping, or flaking lead paint and dust should be cleaned. Wet sponging and mopping with detergents containing phosphate, like tri-sodium are best for this type of cleaning. Windows sills are often a major source of lead exposure. They should be periodically cleaned if xin poo. condition, the best thing to do may be paint keeps the lower sash (closed and If they are in poor sash for ventilation. Contact paper may be applied to areas of open only the upper walls, or other surfaces as a temporary peeling paint uson e window slum cleaner to clean mporars measure. We se not recommend that you use your vacuum up paint chips because it will disperse fine particulate into the air. Sometimes furniture can be moved to form a child-protective barrier to cover deteriorating paint or plaster. If deteriorating paint or plaster is in the child's bedroom, use another room as the childs room, if possible. Think of those parts of the home where your child spend most of his or her time, and try to keep them as clean as you can before deleading. Lead paint can contaminate soil. If the exterior surfaces of your home have chipping, peeling or flaking lead paint, do not allow your child to play in the soil around the house and be careful not to track soil from these areas into the house. Follow the advice of your code enforcement inspector about soil on your property. 07-30-91 F.Weld •nor Forsberg slaty Mulligan saloner ,l% Co�v�pyo ncu �of✓f sacrr��ZUss 91a fJ 305 cfou!/Wave4, Oartor4 dla 02130-3597 617-522-3700, Fax 617-522-8735 RESIDENTIAL LEAD ABATEMENT ADVISORY • Childhood Lad Poisoning Prevarseon Program 800332.9571 The process of abating lead paint is very dangerous. For this reason, the Department of cr and Industries' Deleading Regulations, 454 CMR 22.00, rewire that only a certified or mused deleading contractor can remove or cover lead paint, or replace a fixture or surface cted with lead paint. Regulations for Lead Poisoning Prevention and Control, 105 CMR 460.000, re additional requirements to make sure that occupants of a dwelling unit are not exposed lead hazards. The most important requirement is that the dwelling unit not be occupied ile the unit is being deleaded It is very important that occupants think carefully about what rir daily needs will be during the time they are away from home, and take along all that they I need. No one should return to a dwelling unit undergoing deleading. Both property owners i tenants must take their responsibilities seriously and cooperate fully to assure the protection all concerned. Tenants, property owners or other residents should not interfere with the -k being completed safely. Tenants of the unit to be deleaded and other residents must receive written notification least five days prior to the beginning of any lead paint removal/abatement. All furnishings I possessions of every type should be removed or stored in plastic bags in non-work areas. s includes all children's clothing, toys, stuffed animals, bedding, etc. Everything should be loved and closets must be emptied. Possessions not removed from the work area should put in plastic bags and left in the center of the room, only as a last resort. The reasons for k extensive precautionary measure is to protect every household article from lead dust tamination. Very fine dust is extremely hazardous and especially difficult to remove. A very thorough final clean-up will be conducted by the deleader no sooner than 24 hours sr the completion of active deleading. This is to ensure that fine airborne particulate will :le out and be removed in the final clean-up. Occupants can return only after a lead inspector ermines that a residential premises or dwelling unit is safe for occupants to return to through reoccupancy reinspection. Occupants should leave a phone number where they can be reached hat the inspector can notify them when it is safe to return home. While there is no substitute for deleading and thorough clean-up to protect children from i exposure, there are some important steps that can be taken even before deleading occurs. lr public lead inspector's advice and counsel should be carefully followed because of their sonal knowledge of your child's home environment. As part of their normal behavior, young children place things in their mouths, especially s, and their own fingers. If there are paint chips and dust in your home, they may end up /our child's mouth. Children's toys pick up lead dust, as will food and candy that falls on floor and most of all, their fingers. It is especially important to wash your child's toys, to try to keep your child's hands clean, particularly at meal time. e e e /gez.zac e� C g0.24timent OISZIOlt and ✓ltd*mlacec g (5n l #00 ..,d8e .fA.f, 02202 lead Removal Program Division of Industrial safety Boston Nee Bedford Douglas Dever, Manger George Gonnella, Inspector Paul Petrorsti, Inspector Peter smith, Inspector Brian Nang, Inspector Michael DiPietro, Supervisor Gary Gaspar, Inspector Don Linhares, Inspector Laurence Robert Lamrre, Supervisor Worcester Stuart Ring, Supervisor Teresa Dominguez, Inspector Michael Bard, Inspector Steven Troiano, Inspector Springfield Edmund Predette, Supervisor Gregory Rower, Inspector _ William lambert, Inspector Pittsfield Raymond Whalen, Supervisor Jon Lifvgrea, Inspector Richard Walsh, Ins,, for 617-727-6155 617-727-1933 617-727-4990 617-727-0611 508-792-7635 413-734-1421 413-445-4214 g ±Y7 ex./. 9gyes Yt LAS od.Yeac ✓azaanUzO ✓ yv, 305 .9csaA,Sie4, Jamaica, , 02130 illiam F. Weld Governor vid P. Forsberg Secretary vid H. Mulligan Commissioner NOTICE TO TENANTS OP LEAD PAINT HAZARDS Dangerous levels of lead in violation of the Lead Law (M.G.L. C. III, ss. 190-199A) and the Regulations for Lead Poisoning Prevention and Control (105 CMR 460.000) have been found in apartment no. , in this building. Children exposed to lead paint hazards are at risk of contracting lead poisoning. This disease affects the normal behavioral and intellectual development of children, especially children under the age of 6 years. If you have children under six years of age, it is important that they be screened for lead poisoning on a periodic basis. If your child has not been screened recently, you should request your child's doctor or health care provider to perform the screening. Screening is the only way lead poisoning can be detected. Since lead paint has been found in a unit in this building, it is quite possible that your unit may have lead paint too. If you have children under six years of age, you are advised to speak to your landlord about having your apartment inspected for lead paint. You can call your local board of health for a lead inspection, or call 1-800-532-9571 for further advice. It is against Massachusetts law for landlords to discriminate against tenants because of lead paint hazards in their apartment, or to threaten or take reprisals against tenants. You will receive a notice five days in advance of the date on which deleading will begin in the unit stated above. While the deleading is being conducted, keep your children out of the areas being worked on. Common hallways, staircases and porches may be deleaded. Use an alternative staircase during this process. If your unit is on the same floor on which deleading work is being done, be sure that your doorway is temporarily sealed with masking tape or similar material so that fine lead dust cannot be blown in, around or under the door. If you do not have an alternative means of exit from your apartment, speak to your landlord or the deleading contractor, to coordinate the work. Check window sills and doorways for visible dust after deleading. Lead dust can be cleaned-up with a high phosphate detergent, like tri-sodium phos- phate. If you notice lead dust from deleading in your apartment, notify the deleading contractor. Properly conducted, deleading work should not result in lead dust contamination of your building. If lead paint dust or paint debris is not properly cleaned up at the end of the workday, or if work areas are not properly contained to prevent dust and debris from being dispersed, notify your landlord or call the Department of Labor and Industries at the numbers on the reverse side of this notice. lam F.Weld 3ovemor tes D.Baker ieeretary d H.Mulligan mmiasioner glzt atrono zwepai fJkssao (artcaitve/,�{�LCei�✓[eOa/f�Off�/L��O� ��jn�m�� tJCIYXCe& `LP/JO/'flnent�YI4X.L(i ✓i.CalA L t 4 ZGoiwtoi,r 'L%dtdkite 305 cforAtittee4 006E0,4.a 02130-3597 617-522-3700, `Fax 617-522-8735 Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program 800-532-9571 NOTICE TO OWNER AND TENANTS' RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OLATION has been determined that the residential premises or dwelling unit and common areas at the address ed on the accompanying order contain dangerous levels of lead in paint or other coating in violation M.G.L.C. 111, ss. 196 and 197 and 105 CMR 460.000,Regulations for Lead Poisoning Prevention and Introl. The owner of the residential premises is required by M.G.L. C.111, S. 197 to abate lead Rations whenever a child under 6 years of age resides on the property or in special cases when directed local or state authorities. its violation endangers or materially impairs the health, safety or well-being of persons occupying the emises. The violation was not caused by the occupants of the premises nor by any person(s) acting der the control of the occupants. NANTS' RIGHTS AND REMEDIES le presence of the above violation entitles the occupants of the premises to the following statutory rights d remedies. These remedies are somewhat complex and occupants are advised to obtain legal assistance d/or legal advice before using any of them. (1) Alternative Housing. M.G.L. C. s.197 and 105 CMR 460.160(A) require that a dwelling unit or residential premises shall not be occupied while deleading is being conducted. The residential premises or dwelling unit cannot be reoccupied until deleading is completed, it is cleaned up ac- cording to procedures specified in 105 CMR 460.160 (D), and it meets the conditions of a reoccu- pancy reinspection specified in 105 CMR 460.760(A). It is the responsibility of the landlord and tenant to work out an acceptable plan for alternative housing and any costs associated with alter- native housing and/or rent abatement. Tenants under lease and tenants at will have legal rights applicable to this circumstance and are advised to seek legal assistance in those circumstances in which a satisfactory arrangement cannot be reached. (2) Protection From Retaliatory Rent Increase 2 Eviction. The landlord may not increase rent or evict occupants in reprisal for their having reported a violation or suspected violation of the Lead Law. Landlords'who threaten or take reprisals against a tenant for exercising his/her rights under M.G.L. C. 111, ss. 190-199A are liable for damages under M.G.L. C. 186, s. 18 and M.G.L. C. 93a. (3) Rent Withholding. (M.G.L. C. 239, s. 8A) After the landlord has been notified of the lead paint violations,the occupants may withhold rent as long as lead paint violations remain uncorrected, provided that they are up to date in rent when they start rent withholding. To fully protect themselves against attempted evictions, occupants may need to place withheld monies in an escrow (separated savings) account. If these conditions are met, occupants may not be evicted for non-payment of rent or for any other cause which is not the fault of the occupants.However, However, as soon as the violation is certified as having been corrected, all withheld monies may have to paid to the owner. (4) "Rent Receivership". M.G.L. C. 111, ss. 127C to 127J). The occupants and/or the Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program may petition the court to allow rent to be paid into court rather than to the owner, provided that the occupant is up to date in rent. The court may then appoint a "receiver" who may spend as much of the rent money as is needed to correct the viola- tion. (5) Abatement of Rent. May be awarded through a court action under decisions of the Massa- chusetts Supreme Court Judicial Court case, Boston Housing Authority vs. Hemingway, 293 NE3d 831, 363 Mass. 184 (1973). In such an action, the court determines the value of the premises with violations and reduces the amount of rent due. (6) Landlord Liability - Compensatory and Punitive Damages. Pursuant to M.G.L. C. 111, s. 199, the owner of any residential premises is financially liable for all damages associated with a case of childhood lead poisoning arising from his/her failure to abate lead paint, plaster or other lead hazards when a child under six years of age will reside or resides in the premises. The owner of any dwelling unit or residential premises, who is notified of a dangerous level of lead in paint, plaster or other material present upon his or her premises, and who does not satisfactorily cor- rect or remove the dangerous conditions, shall in addition to actual damages, be subject to puni- tive damages, which are three times the actual damages found. REPAINTING Violations of the Lead Law constitute violations of the State Sanitary Code. Although repainting of surfaces from which lead paint or other coatings have been removed is not required for compliance with he Regulations for Lead Poisoning Prevention and Control, repainting of such surfaces is required under he State Sanitary Code, 105 CMR 410.021. It is important that deleaded surfaces be sealed and can be )asily cleaned. Repainting of deleaded surfaces may not occur until after the surfaces have been -einspected while bare and approved for repainting by a licensed lead inspector. Repainting of deleaded surfaces on the interior of the dwelling unit and interior common areas must be :ompleted within thirty days of the reoccupancy reinspection. Exterior surfaces must be repainted within shirty days of the compliance reinspection. This requirement does not apply to surfaces where lead paint has been covered or a new fixture or surface installed to replace a leaded one. Tenants are advised to call their local board of health if the required repainting is not completed as dipulated above.
