Department of Housing and Urban Development

Description

HUD is funding studies to improve HUD’s and the public’s knowledge of housing-related health and safety hazards, and to improve or develop new hazard assessment and control methods, with a focus on key residential health and safety hazards. HUD is especially interested in applications which will advance our knowledge on key healthy homes issues, including lead-based paint, by addressing important gaps in the science related to the accurate and efficient identification of hazards and cost effective hazard mitigation. Key hazards are discussed in Appendix A, Key Residential Health and Safety Hazards, of this NOPI. A list of references that serves as the basis for the information provided in this NOPI is provided as Appendix B, Relevant Publications and Guidelines.
