Which act is associated with Title X in lead paint regulation?

Title X in lead paint regulation refers to the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992. This act established the rules for dealing with lead hazards in housing, most notably the requirement that sellers and landlords disclose known lead-based paint hazards and provide the EPA’s lead hazard information pamphlet before selling or leasing pre-1978 housing. It also laid the groundwork for programs and training aimed at reducing lead hazards in the housing stock. The other options don’t correspond to Title X—the Environmental Protection Act, the Public Health Service Act, and the Safe Housing Act are not the statutes associated with Title X.
