The Abatement of Lead Paint Hazards in Maryland
Under Maryland law, lead paint abatement is a set of measures designed to reduce, and preferably eliminate lead-based paint hazards. It is a very important issue in this state.
If you are a landlord for residential units constructed before 1978 in the Baltimore metropolitan area, you must be very aware generally of Maryland's lead laws, and in particular the state's lead paint abatement rules and procedures. Lead abatement work in Maryland on rental properties must be performed by Maryland State-certified professionals.
Anyone who provides a lead paint abatement service must be accredited(certified) by the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE). The accredited/certified contractor must follow State-prescribed procedures covered in State regulations. Anyone who removes lead paint, or who conducts any other maintenance or home improvement activity which creates a hazard by distributing lead paint, must follow the safe practices which are included in the State regulations.
