What is Title X in lead paint regulation?

Title X is the 1992 federal statute—the Title X portion of the Housing and Community Development Act—that established the nationwide approach to lead-based paint hazards. It created the framework for lead hazard standards and requirements, including the disclosure of known lead paint hazards to buyers and tenants. That 1992 date is what the question is testing. The other years don’t correspond to Title X, as they aren’t the year this specific law was enacted. In practice, Title X set the stage for the lead regulations and disclosure rules used by inspectors and renovators today.
