Opportunity Summary:
The Lead Based Paint Hazard Control (LBPHC) Grant Program and the Lead Hazard Reduction Demonstration (LHRD) Grant Program are discretionary grant opportunities from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) designed to help local and state governments run comprehensive efforts to find and control lead-based paint hazards in eligible privately owned housing. The core goal is to reduce the health risks of lead exposure, particularly for children, by supporting activities that identify lead hazards and carry out hazard control work in both privately owned rental housing and owner-occupied homes. While both programs share that general purpose, the LHRD program is specifically aimed at urban jurisdictions with the most significant lead hazard control needs, essentially concentrating resources where the scale and severity of risk are highest.
This opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number FR 5800 N 04) was posted May 13, 2014, with applications due June 27, 2014, submitted electronically no later than 11:59:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the deadline date. HUD anticipated making about 30 awards under this funding cycle, with an estimated total funding amount of $104,000,000. Individual award amounts were expected to fall between a $1,000,000 floor and a $3,900,000 ceiling. The funding activity category is housing, and the awards are issued as grants. The programs are associated with CFDA 14.900 (Lead Based Paint Hazard Control in Privately Owned Housing) and CFDA 14.905 (Lead Hazard Reduction Demonstration Grant Program). A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning grantees are expected to contribute non-federal resources as part of the overall program budget.
Eligible applicants are governmental entities, including state governments, city or township governments, county governments, and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. HUD also allows applications from other units of local government and permits multiple units of local government (or multiple local governments) to apply together as a consortium. In consortium applications, there must be a clearly identified principal (lead) applicant who takes responsibility for meeting the notice requirements and ensuring overall compliance. Where multiple entities are involved, HUD requires each participating entity to meet certain civil rights compliance thresholds, including the “Resolution of Outstanding Civil Rights Matters†requirement referenced in the general HUD program guidance.
There are also specific eligibility limitations and exclusions. State governments and federally recognized Native American tribes, whether applying as the lead applicant or as a partner in a consortium, must have an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) authorized lead-based paint training and certification program, aligning the grant-funded work with recognized standards for safe lead hazard evaluation and control practices. Certain applicants are explicitly barred from applying, including any FY2013 awardees under the prior NOFA cycle for either LBPHC or LHRD. HUD also excludes grantees with specific performance problems in existing Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control (OHHLHC) grants or subgrants, such as entities designated “High Risk,†those with a “Red†performance designation for two consecutive quarters up to the submission deadline, or applicants with closed OHHLHC grants that still have unresolved audit and/or monitoring findings. Individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorship organizations are not eligible to compete for or receive awards under this announcement, reinforcing that the program is meant to be carried out by public-sector organizations with the capacity to administer large-scale housing hazard control initiatives.
In practical terms, the funding supports community-level programs that combine hazard identification with direct intervention in homes where lead-based paint poses a threat. Although the summary description centers on “identify and control,†HUD’s framing of “comprehensive programs†generally implies coordinated elements such as outreach, targeting of high-risk housing, inspections or risk assessments as required, management of hazard control work, and program oversight to ensure that lead hazards are addressed effectively and safely. The LHRD component, by design, places special emphasis on high-need urban areas, indicating a policy intent to reduce lead exposure where older housing stock and concentrated risk are most common.
For applicants needing the full announcement and instructions, HUD provided an additional information link through its grants “funds available†portal.
