This webinar will discuss important changes and updates to HUD’s Lead Paint Safety field guide. This guide was recently updated by the HUD Office of Lead Hazard Control and Healthy Homes to include important safety and lead handling practices for painting, repairs, and home maintenance. If you perform routine maintenance on homes or apartments built before 1978, this guide will help you plan and safely carry out the work, while minimizing the production and spread of lead dust. The webinar will be presented by Warren Friedman, PhD, Senior Advisor to the Director of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Office of Lead Hazard Control and Healthy Homes and Bruce Haber, Division Director of the Program and Regulatory Support Division of that Office.
