Pre-1978 homes in Temple Terrace are subject to federal EPA Renovation, Repair, and Painting Rule requirements. There is no separate Florida or city lead-paint inspection mandate.
Under the federal EPA RRP Rule (40 CFR Part 745), any renovation, repair, or painting work that disturbs more than 6 square feet interior or 20 square feet exterior of painted surfaces in a pre-1978 target housing unit or child-occupied facility must be performed by an EPA Lead-Safe Certified firm using lead-safe work practices. Sellers and landlords must provide the EPA Protect Your Family From Lead pamphlet and disclosure under 42 U.S.C. §4852d. Florida has no stricter standard; Temple Terrace enforces through building permit review and code enforcement when unsafe work is reported.
EPA RRP violations: up to 37,500 dollars per day per violation. Failure to disclose at sale: tripled damages under federal law.
