Regulations on the use of lead-based paint in housing may be found at 61 Fed.
Regulations apply to owners of more than four residential housing units.
The units must have been built before 1978. The term includes efficiencies, studio apartments, dormitory housing, military barracks, and rentals of individual rooms in residential dwellings. See 40 C.F.R. 745.103 and 24 CFR 35.80 . If the rooms are suites in which living and sleeping areas are separated, such units are probably exempt. The definition of 0-bedroom dwelling includes rentals of individual rooms in residential dwellings, and EPA and HUD believe that the rentals of rooms in fraternity and sorority houses generally fit that model and would be exempt.
