Jupiter follows federal EPA Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP) Rule and FL DOH lead program for pre-1978 homes. Most Jupiter housing built post-1978, so lead paint concerns are limited to older neighborhoods like Jupiter Inlet Colony and downtown areas.
EPA 40 CFR 745 requires RRP-certified contractors for renovations disturbing painted surfaces in pre-1978 homes. Landlords must provide EPA lead disclosure pamphlet to tenants. FL DOH administers childhood lead poisoning prevention program. Jupiter itself does not have a local lead ordinance; federal and state rules apply directly.
EPA RRP violations: civil penalties up to $37,500 per day per violation. Failure to disclose to tenants: HUD/EPA enforcement up to $16,000 per violation.
