New Haven Landlord Agrees To $4,700 EPA Squeeze, Will Complete $42,300 Lead-Based Paint Remediation To Resolve Allegations It Failed To Provide Required Lead-Based Paint Disclosure To Prospective Tenants When Renting Out Housing It Owns

From an announcement from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency:

• JPAA Chen Services of New Haven paid $4,700 and will complete an environmental project worth $42,300 to settle claims it failed to disclose whether it knew of any lead-based paint and/or lead-based paint hazards at properties it rents out in New Haven.
  
  The environmental project will involve the removal and replacement of lead-based paint and/or lead-based paint hazards, followed by lead clearance testing. Chen will address windows, trim and a porch, among other components, at housing it owns. As a result, future tenants of these units will have reduced chances of exposure to lead.
