A citizen's complaint was made based on the discovery of a child with an EBL. The Health Department ordered an abatement in the apartment. The landlord owns/rents 11 units, this unit was in a 4 unit house. After the abatement was complete EPA made inquiries into whether the Landlord was doing disclosure. He was, but he gave the new tenants in this unit forms that indicated no knowledge of lead, and no reports. Landlord will perform window replacement in the three remaining units of the property with the previously abated unit. He will also do proper disclosure at all 11 of the units.
