Synopsis

The purpose of the Lead Hazard Reduction (LHR) Grant Program is to maximize the number of children under the age of six protected from lead poisoning by assisting states, cities, counties/parishes, Native American Tribes or other units of local government in undertaking comprehensive programs to identify and control lead-based paint hazards in eligible privately-owned rental or owner-occupied housing populations. In addition, there is Healthy Homes Supplemental funding available that is intended to enhance the lead-based paint hazard control activities by comprehensively identifying and addressing other housing hazards that affect occupant health in homes with lead-based paint hazards being treated under the grant.

Who can apply

A state or Native American Tribe applicants must have an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) authorized lead abatement certification program on the submission deadline to apply; this application restriction does not pertain to cities, counties/parishes, and other units of local government. Multiple entities may apply as a consortium, but a principal (lead) applicant responsible for ensuring compliance with NOFO requirements must be designated, and each entity must meet the Resolution of Civil Rights Matters threshold requirement. An applicant with at least 3,500 pre-1940 occupied rental housing units (either alone or through a consortium) may apply under the Highest Lead-Based Paint Abatement Needs grants category for up to $7,000,000.An applicant that would be a first-time grantee or whose previous lead hazard control grant ended two (2) or more years before the deadline may request up to $4,000,000. An applicant whose previous grant ended less than two (2) years ago may request up to $5,000,000 (Other Jurisdictions). An applicant requesting funding under the Highest Lead-Based Paint Abatement Needs category that does not meet the applicable criteria will be put into the general applicant’s pool and the requested amount lowered to the maximum for the category under which they are assigned, i.e., $4,000,000 or $5,000,000, as above, if the requested funding exceeded the applicable maximum. An applicant that is eligible for a grant under the Areas with the Highest Lead-Based Paint Abatement Needs grant category may choose to apply under the Other Jurisdictions category instead. Healthy Homes Supplemental Funding: An applicant that would be a first-time grantee or whose previous lead hazard control grant ended two (2) or more years before the deadline may apply for up to $400,000 for Healthy Homes Supplemental Related Activities in addition to the required lead funding. Other applicants may apply for up to $750,000 for Healthy Homes Supplemental Related Activities…
