The bill amends Chapter 42-128.1 of the General Laws, titled "Lead Hazard Mitigation," by introducing a new section that establishes a safe harbor provision for landlords. This provision applies to landlords who are required to obtain a lead certificate but are unable to do so due to the state's lack of adequate resources to conduct inspections and enforce the current law. If these landlords certify that they have followed the lead mitigation law as of September 1, 2024, they will not be fined for not having their properties inspected and formally certified by the state within the current statutory deadline. The act is designed to take effect upon passage.
