Lead paint rules in Moreno Valley follow federal RRP and California Title 17, with CDPH-certified workers required for disturbance of lead paint in pre-1978 housing and child-occupied facilities.
Residential rental and sale transactions for homes built before 1978 in Moreno Valley require federal lead paint disclosure under the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act, including the EPA Protect Your Family From Lead pamphlet and a signed disclosure form. Any renovation, repair, or painting that disturbs more than six square feet of interior or twenty square feet of exterior lead-based paint in pre-1978 housing or child-occupied facilities must use EPA RRP-certified firms. California adds stricter Title 17 accreditation for abatement work, requiring California Department of Public Health certification for inspectors, assessors, project monitors, and workers. Clearance testing by a certified assessor is required after abatement, and waste must be managed per California hazardous waste rules when it exceeds thresholds. The city building department references state and federal rules rather than imposing a separate local program.
