Requires landlords to disclose existence of lead service lines and lead water supply plumbing to tenants.
This bill requires landlords in New Jersey to inspect rental properties for lead service lines (pipes connecting water mains to buildings) and lead plumbing within 90 days of the law taking effect. Landlords must then disclose the presence of lead pipes to current tenants and provide written notice - including health risk information - to prospective tenants before signing new leases. Failure to comply results in civil penalties of up to $500 per violation. The law directly affects landlords and tenants in rental properties across New Jersey.
