What is Title X?

What is Title X?

• A. Clean Air Act
• B. Safe Drinking Water Act
• C. Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
• D. Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act

Answer: (D)

Title X refers to the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act. This law was created to reduce exposure to lead in housing, especially in homes built before 1978. It requires disclosure of known lead-based paint hazards before the sale or rental of such housing and established programs and rules to address and reduce lead hazards, including standards for how lead paint is tested and remediated. It’s not about air quality, drinking water, or waste management, which is why the other acts listed don’t apply to what Title X covers.
