approximately 124 units located in 

Minneapolis, Minnesota. The claims 

were brought on behalf of the 

Department of Housing and Urban 

Development (‘‘HUD’’) and the 

Environmental Protection Agency 

(‘‘EPA’’) under the Residential LeadBased Paint Hazard Reduction Act, 42 

U.S.C. 4851 et seq. (‘‘Lead Hazard 

Reduction Act’’). The United States 

alleged in the complaint that the 

defendant failed to make one or more of 

the disclosures or to complete one or 

more of the disclosure activities 

required by the Lead Hazard Reduction 

Act. 

Under the consent decree, defendant 

will certify that he is complying with 

residential lead paint notification 

requirements. He has agreed to hire 

contractors to complete risk assessments 

and has agreed to abate all lead-based 

paint hazards identified in all 

residential properties he owns and 

manages. Defendant is required to 

complete abatement of one-fifth of his 

portfolio each year, and to complete all 

required hazard abatement activities 

within five years after HUD and EPA 

approve Defendant’s hazard abatement 

plan. The schedule for hazard 

abatement will be accelerated to require 

completion of abatement in any unit 

within five months of Defendant 

learning about the presence of a child 

with an elevated blood-lead level (in 

addition to the requirement to comply 

immediately with any abatement order 

issued by a local government which 

requires any immediate measures to 

protect a poisoned child). 

In addition, Defendant will pay a civil 

penalty of $7,500 to the United States. 

Defendant will also perform a child 

health improvement project of $50,000 

to provide for a mobile testing vehicle 

to conduct lead screening and testing of 

children in the Minneapolis-St. Paul
