MAINE WARNING: LEAD-BASED PAINT HAZARDS

Any residence built before 1978 may contain lead sufficient to poison children and sometimes adults.__Lead poisoning poses a particular risk if you are pregnant or may become pregnant.__Lead poisoning in young children may produce permanent neurological damage, including learning disabilities, a reduced intelligence quotient (IQ), impaired memory and behavioral problems such as attention deficit hyperactive disorder and a propensity for violence.

Every tenant or lessor of any interest in residential real property on which a residential dwelling was built prior to 1978 is notified that such property may present exposure to lead from lead-based paint that may place young children at risk of developing lead poisoning.__The landlord or other lessor of any interest in real property is required to provide the tenant or lessee with any information on lead- based paint hazards from risk assessments or inspections in the landlord's or lessor's possession and notify the tenant or lessee of any known lead-based paint hazards.

The only way to know with certainty whether lead-based paint hazards are present on the property is to test the property for the presence of lead.
