EPA v. Raritan Brunswick, L.P.

Case summary

Management company for Gardens at Raritan (520 unit apartment complex) was not doing lead-based paint disclosure. Ten leases were reviewed, of which 3 had children under 6. Violations occurred after 3/15/04, so penalties were increased for inflation. Management company has agreed to perfom a SEP with the replacement of approximately 221 windows with vinyl windows, to reduce the possibilty of lead poisoning from lead-based paint with an added benefit of reducing fuel usage. The CA/CO was issued under the name: Renaissance Management Group. During negotiations the name was changed to Raritan Brunswick, L.P. SB . The final order was issued under the new name and the case name is changed to: Raritan Brunswick, L.P.
