Print Name of Authorized Signatory OS~ 13~0~ Date ~Y-~Si~Y ~ Print Title of Authorized Signatory Page 2 of 2 CERTIFICATION OF LEAD BASED PAINT REOUIREMENTS APPLICABILITY: A. The lead based paint rule applies to HOME-funded housing activities involving construction, purchase and rehabilitation. B. The following housing rehabilitation activities are excepted: 1. Emergency repairs (but not lead based paint-related emergency repairs) 2. Weatherizing 3. Water and/or sewer hookups 4. Installation of security devices Facilitation of tax exempt bond issuances for funds 6. Other single-purpose activities that do not include physical repairs or remodeling of applicable surfaces 7. Other activities that do not involve applicable surfaces and do not exceed $3,000 per unit. INSPECTION AND TESTING REQUIREMENTS: The Provider shall be required to test the lead content of chewable surfaces of an aparhnent building to be rehabilitated, if there is a family residing in one of the units with a child under seven years of age with an identified elevated blood level condition (concentration of lead in blood of 25 micrograms per deciliter or greater) and the building was constructed prior to 1978. Chewable surfaces are defined as all exterior surfaces of a residential structure, up to five feet from the floor or ground, such as: a wall, stairs, deck, porch, railing, windows or doors that are readily accessible to children under seven years of age, and all interior surfaces of a residential structure. Lead content shall be tested by using an x-ray fluorescence analyzer or other method approved by HUD. Test readings of 1 mg/cm or higher shall be considered positive for presence of lead based paint. REQUIRED TREATMENT: Treatment of lead based paint conditions must be included as part of the proposed rehabilitation work. All chewable surfaces in any room found to contain lead based paint must be treated before final inspection and approval of work. Similarly, all exterior chewable surfaces must be treated when they are found to contain lead based paint. Minimum treatment involves covering or removing the painted surfaces. Washing and repainting without thorough removal or covering does not constitute adequate treatment. Page 1 of 2 Covering can be achieved by adding a layer of gypsum wallboard or fiberglass cloth barrier. Depending on the wall condition, permanently attached, non-strippable wallpaper may be applied. Covering or replacing trim surfaces is also permitted. Removal can be accomplished by scraping, heat treatment (infrared or coil type heat guns) or chemicals. Machine sanding and propane torch use are not allowed. I hereby acknowledge that I have read the specific requirements for lead based paint contained in this Certification, and understand that my organization's project eligibility depends upon compliance with the requirements contained in this document.
