New Jersey Department of Community Affairs | New Jersey Department of Community Affairs LRAP - Lead Remediation and Abatement Program Lead-based paint in buildings poses serious health risks, particularly for children who may ingest paint chips or inhale lead-contaminated dust.
The New Jersey Lead Remediation and Abatement program (LRAP) , funded by a $180 million federal grant, aims to address this issue by supporting the removal of lead-based hazards from low- to moderate-income households. Households with incomes at or below 80% of the area median income for the County in which the municipality is situated, residing in one to ten family residential properties constructed prior to 1978, are eligible.
There are dangers to having lead-based paint in buildings. Lead is toxic, especially to children and can potentially cause permanent health issues.
Untreated, lead-based paint may lead to complications such as: Irreversible brain damage Follow the steps below to apply to the Lead Remediation and Abatement Program: Step 1: Check Household Qualifications Property was built prior to 1978 Property has lead-based paint hazards Property contains no more than 10 residential units Property is free from structural issues Identify the number of people in your household If you’re Gross Household Income is at or below the respective dollar amount (annually), you may be eligible: Step 2: Requirements to Apply Household Member details Income information by household member Proof of Residency (lease agreement, NJ license, utility bill) ATTENTION TENANTS: At least 20% of submitted applications are REJECTED because the 1-10 unit residential properties where eligible applicants lived were NOT built before 1978.

If you learn that the building was actually constructed any time AFTER December 31, 1977, then the building does not qualify for LRAP funding and you should not/not apply.

If you own a 1-10 unit residential property in New Jersey built before 1978 and lead-based paint is found to be present during inspection, your property may be eligible for the State's Lead Remediation and Abatement Program (LRAP). Current tenants of your eligible New Jersey property may apply for: A state-funded lead inspection to assess the presence of lead hazards.
Potential lead abatement or remediation, depending on the household's eligibility status, if lead hazards are identified during the inspection. For more information on the tenant application process, read “Tenants & Homeowners” Steps 1-3 above.
Landlords and/or property managers may complete applications on behalf of tenants occupying unit(s) who meet the LRAP household income eligibility qualifications noted under the “Tenant and Homeowners” section of this page. Feel free to download the following tenant email/ template letter to request their assistance in the process at this link [Click Here] .
Tenants meeting the program household income eligibility qualifications may also complete the online application themselves. Landlords may only complete an application for themselves if they currently live in an eligible unit AND meet the program’s household income eligibility qualifications.
