ESG Housing Habitability Standards  
Inspection Checklist  

About this Tool  

The standards for housing unit inspections under ESG are the housing 
habitability standards described in the HUD ESG Interim Rule.  These 
standards apply when a program participant is receiving financial assistance 
and moving into a new (different) unit or remaining in a current unit.  
Inspections must be conducted upon initial occupancy and then on an annual 
basis for the term of ESG assistance. 
The habitability standards are different from the Housing Quality Standards 
(HQS) used for other HUD programs.  Because the HQS criteria are more 
stringent than the habitability standards, a grantee could use either standard.  
In contrast to HQS inspections, the habitability standards do not require a 
certified inspector.  As such, ESG program staff could conduct the inspections, 
using a form such as this one to document compliance.  
 
Instructions: Mark each statement as ‘A’ for approved or ‘D’ for deficient.  The property must meet all 
standards in order to be approved.  A copy of this checklist should be placed in the client file.  
Approved 
or  Element 
Deficient 
  1. Structure and materials: The structures must be structurally sound so as not to pose 
any threat to the health and safety of the occupants and so as to protect the 
residents from hazards. 
  2. Access: The housing must be accessible and capable of being utilized without 
unauthorized use of other private properties.  Structures must provide alternate 
means of egress in case of fire. 
  3. Space and security: Each resident must be afforded adequate space and security for 
themselves and their belongings.  Each resident must be provided with an 
acceptable place to sleep. 
  4. Interior air quality: Every room or space must be provided with natural or 
mechanical ventilation.  Structures must be free of pollutants in the air at levels that 
threaten the health of residents. 
  5. Water Supply: The water supply must be free from contamination. 
  6. Sanitary Facilities: Residents must have access to sufficient sanitary facilities that 
are in proper operating condition, may be used in privacy, and are adequate for 
personal cleanliness and the disposal of human waste.

Form #: ESG-216
 
  7. Thermal environment: The housing must have adequate heating and/or cooling 
facilities in proper operating condition. 
  8. Illumination and electricity: The housing must have adequate natural or artificial 
illumination to permit normal indoor activities and to support the health and safety 
of residents.  Sufficient electrical sources must be provided to permit use of 
essential electrical appliances while assuring safety from fire. 
  9. Food preparation and refuse disposal: All food preparation areas must contain 
suitable space and equipment to store, prepare, and serve food in a sanitary 
manner.  
  10. Sanitary condition: The housing and any equipment must be maintained in sanitary 
condition. 
  11. Fire safety: Both conditions below must be met to meet this standard. 
  a. Each unit must include at least one battery‐operated or hard‐wired 
smoke detector, in proper working condition, on each occupied level of 
the unit.  Smoke detectors must be located, to the extent practicable, in 
a hallway adjacent to a bedroom.  If the unit is occupied by hearing‐
impaired persons, smoke detectors must have an alarm system 
designed for hearing‐impaired persons in each bedroom occupied by a 
hearing‐impaired person. 
  b. The public areas of all housing must be equipped with a sufficient 
number, but not less than one for each area, of battery‐operated or 
hard‐wired smoke detectors.  Public areas include, but are not limited 
to, laundry rooms, day care centers, hallways, stairwells, and other 
common areas.

Lead Screening Worksheet

About this Tool


The Lead Screening Worksheet is intended to guide grantees through the lead-based paint
inspection process to ensure compliance with the rule. ESG staff can use this worksheet to
document any exemptions that may apply, whether any potential hazards have been identified,
and if safe work practices and clearance are required and used. A copy of the completed
worksheet along with any additional documentation should be kept in each program
participant’s case file. Please see the ESG Lead-Based Paint Requirements Summary for
additional information.

INSTRUCTIONS
To prevent lead-poisoning in young children, ESG grantees must comply with the Lead-Based Paint
Poisoning Prevention Act of 1973 and its applicable regulations found at 24 CFR 35, Parts A, B, M, and R.
Under certain circumstances, a visual assessment of the unit is not required. This screening worksheet
will help program staff determine whether a unit is subject to a visual assessment, and if so, how to
proceed. A copy of the completed worksheet along with any related documentation should be kept in
each program participant’s file.
Note: ALL pre-1978 properties are subject to the disclosure requirements outlined in 24 CFR 35, Part A,
regardless of whether they are exempt from the visual assessment requirements.

Emergency Solutions Grant 2012

PART 2: DOCUMENT ADDITIONAL EXEMPTIONS


If the answer to any of the following questions is ‘yes,’ the property is exempt from the visual
assessment requirement and no further action is needed at this point. Place this screening sheet and
supporting documentation for each exemption in the program participant’s file.
If the answer to all of these questions is ‘no,’ then continue to Part 3 to determine whether deteriorated
paint is present.
1. Is it a zero-bedroom or SRO-sized unit?
Yes No
2. Has X-ray or laboratory testing of all painted surfaces by certified personnel been conducted in
accordance with HUD regulations and the unit is officially certified to not contain lead-based
paint?
Yes No
3. Has this property had all lead-based paint identified and removed in accordance with HUD
regulations?
Yes No
4. Is the client receiving Federal assistance from another program, where the unit has already
undergone (and passed) a visual assessment within the past 12 months (e.g., if the client has a
Section 8 voucher and is receiving ESG assistance for a security deposit or arrears)?
Yes (Obtain documentation for the case file.)
No
5. Does the property meet any of the other exemptions described in 24 CFR Part 35.115(a).
Yes No
Please describe the exemption and provide appropriate documentation of the exemption.

PART 3: DETERMINE THE PRESENCE OF DETERIORATED PAINT


To determine whether there are any identified problems with paint surfaces, program staff should
conduct a visual assessment prior to providing ESG financial assistance to the unit as outlined in the
following training on HUD’s website at:
http://www.hud.gov/offices/lead/training/visualassessment/h00101.htm.
If no problems with paint surfaces are identified during the visual assessment, then no further action is
required at this time. Place this screening sheet and certification form (Attachment A) in the program
participant’s file.
If any problems with paint surfaces are identified during the visual assessment, then continue to Part 4
to determine whether safe work practices and clearance are required.

1. Has a visual assessment of the unit been conducted?


Yes No

eversign Document Hash: ad28d070a36f48db9eec14d06857c90f


Emergency Solutions Grant 2012
2. Were any problems with paint surfaces identified in the unit during the visual assessment?
Yes No (Complete Attachment A – Lead-Based Paint Visual Assessment
Certification Form)

PART 4: DOCUMENT THE LEVEL OF IDENTIFIED PROBLEMS


All deteriorated paint identified during the visual assessment must be repaired prior to clearing the unit
for assistance. However, if the area of paint to be stabilized exceeds the de minimus levels (defined
below), the use of lead safe work practices and clearance is required.
If deteriorating paint exists but the area of paint to be stabilized does not exceed these levels, then the
paint must be repaired prior to clearing the unit for assistance, but safe work practices and clearance
are not required.
1. Does the area of paint to be stabilized exceed any of the de minimus levels below?
• 20 square feet on exterior surfaces Yes No
• 2 square feet in any one interior room or space Yes No
• 10 percent of the total surface area on an interior or exterior component with a small
surface area, like window sills, baseboards, and trim Yes No
If any of the above are ‘yes,’ then safe work practices and clearance are required prior to clearing the
unit for assistance.

PART 5: CONFIRM ALL IDENTIFIED DETERIORATED PAINT HAS BEEN STABILIZED


Program staff should work with property owners/managers to ensure that all deteriorated paint
identified during the visual assessment has been stabilized. If the area of paint to be stabilized does not
exceed the de minimus level, safe work practices and a clearance exam are not required (though safe
work practices are always recommended). In these cases, the ESG program staff should confirm that the
identified deteriorated paint has been repaired by conducting a follow-up assessment.
If the area of paint to be stabilized exceeds the de minimus level, program staff should ensure that the
clearance inspection is conducted by an independent certified lead professional. A certified lead
professional may go by various titles, including a certified paint inspector, risk assessor, or
sampling/clearance technician. Note, the clearance inspection cannot be conducted by the same firm
that is repairing the deteriorated paint.
1. Has a follow-up visual assessment of the unit been conducted?
Yes No
2. Have all identified problems with the paint surfaces been repaired?
Yes No

3. Were all identified problems with paint surfaces repaired using safe work practices?
Yes No
Not Applicable – The area of paint to be stabilized did not exceed the de minimus levels.

Simple Steps To Protect Your Family
From Lead Hazards
If you think your home has high
levels of lead:
Get your young children tested for lead, even if
they seem healthy.
Wash children’s hands, bottles, pacifiers, and toys
often.
Make sure children eat healthy, low-fat foods.
Get your home checked for lead hazards.
Regularly clean floors, window sills, and other
surfaces.
Wipe soil off shoes before entering house.
Talk to your landlord about fixing surfaces with
peeling or chipping paint.
Take precautions to avoid exposure to lead dust
when remodeling or renovating (call 1-800-424-
LEAD for guidelines).
Don’t use a belt-sander, propane torch, high
temperature heat gun, scraper, or sandpaper on
painted surfaces that may contain lead.
Don’t try to remove lead-based paint yourself.

any houses and apartments built before 1978 have
paint that contains high levels of lead (called lead-
based paint). Lead from paint, chips, and dust can
pose serious health hazards if not taken care of properly.

OWNERS, BUYERS, and RENTERS are


encouraged to check for lead (see page 6)
before renting, buying or renovating pre-
1978 housing.

F
ederal law requires that individuals receive certain
information before renting, buying, or renovating
pre-1978 housing:

LANDLORDS have to disclose known infor-


mation on lead-based paint and lead-based
paint hazards before leases take effect.
Leases must include a disclosure about
lead-based paint.

SELLERS have to disclose known informa-


tion on lead-based paint and lead-based
paint hazards before selling a house. Sales
contracts must include a disclosure about
lead-based paint. Buyers have up to 10
days to check for lead.

RENOVATORS disturbing more than 2 square


feet of painted surfaces have to give you
this pamphlet before starting work.

IMPORTANT!

Lead From Paint, Dust, and


Soil Can Be Dangerous If Not
Managed Properly
FACT: Lead exposure can harm young
children and babies even before they
are born.
FACT: Even children who seem healthy can
have high levels of lead in their bodies.
FACT: People can get lead in their bodies by
breathing or swallowing lead dust, or by
eating soil or paint chips containing
lead.
FACT: People have many options for reducing
lead hazards. In most cases, lead-based
paint that is in good condition is not a
hazard.
FACT: Removing lead-based paint improperly
can increase the danger to your family.

If you think your home might have lead


hazards, read this pamphlet to learn some
simple steps to protect your family.

your children. A simple blood test can
detect high levels of lead. Blood tests are
usually recommended for:
Children at ages 1 and 2.
Children or other family members who
have been exposed to high levels of lead.
Children who should be tested under
your state or local health screening plan.
Your doctor can explain what the test results
mean and if more testing will be needed.

lot of wear-and-tear, such as:
Windows and window sills.
Doors and door frames.
Stairs, railings, banisters, and porches.
Lead dust can form when lead-based paint is scraped, sanded, or
heated. Dust also forms when painted surfaces bump or rub togeth-
er. Lead chips and dust can get on surfaces and objects that people
touch. Settled lead dust can re-enter the air when people vacuum,
sweep, or walk through it. The following two federal standards have
been set for lead hazards in dust:
40 micrograms per square foot (µg/ft2) and higher for floors,
including carpeted floors.
250 µg/ft2 and higher for interior window sills.
Lead in soil can be a hazard when children play in bare soil or
when people bring soil into the house on their shoes. The following
two federal standards have been set for lead hazards in residential
soil:
400 parts per million (ppm) and higher in play areas of bare soil.
1,200 ppm (average) and higher in bare soil in the remainder of
the yard.
The only way to find out if paint, dust and soil lead hazards exist is
to test for them. The next page describes the most common meth-
ods used.

more information, or call 1-800-424-LEAD

Home test kits for lead are available, but
may not always be accurate. Consumers
should not rely on these kits before doing
renovations or to assure safety.

What You Can Do Now To Protect
Your Family

If you suspect that your house has lead


hazards, you can take some immediate
steps to reduce your family’s risk:
If you rent, notify your landlord of
peeling or chipping paint.
Clean up paint chips immediately.
Clean floors, window frames, window
sills, and other surfaces weekly. Use a
mop or sponge with warm water and a
general all-purpose cleaner or a cleaner
made specifically for lead. REMEMBER:
NEVER MIX AMMONIA AND BLEACH
PRODUCTS TOGETHER SINCE THEY
CAN FORM A DANGEROUS GAS.
Thoroughly rinse sponges and mop
heads after cleaning dirty or dusty
areas.
Wash children’s hands often, especial-
ly before they eat and before nap time
and bed time.
Keep play areas clean. Wash bottles,
pacifiers, toys, and stuffed animals
regularly.
Keep children from chewing window
sills or other painted surfaces.
Clean or remove shoes before
entering your home to avoid
tracking in lead from soil.
Make sure children eat
nutritious, low-fat meals high
in iron and calcium, such as
spinach and dairy products.
Children with good diets absorb
less lead.

Lead-Based Paint Packet Verification

I have received the lead-based paint infomration packet, “Protect Your Family From Lead Paint
in Your Home”. In addition, I have been verbally informed about the potential dangers of lead-
based paint and how to identify potential problem areas.

I now understand that any housing unit that I may obtain that was built prior to 1978 may have
lead issues. I also understand that any housing unit in which children 6 years old and younger
live in or regularly visit must pass a lead inspection before the unit can be occupied.

PA HMIS Collaborative Client Consent
Release of Information via PA HMIS

The Pennsylvania Homeless Management Information System (“PA HMIS”) serves the Pennsylvania Continuums of Care
Collaborative, a group of agencies (“PA HMIS Participating Agencies”) working together to provide services to individuals
and families in Pennsylvania who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. In an effort to end homelessness, PA
HMIS allows the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and PA HMIS Participating Agencies to use this system to efficiently
collaborate, identify, coordinate, and evaluate individual services needed. The PA HMIS is also used to produce non-
identifying, aggregate reports that can be used to track program performance which is necessary to receive program
funding from the federal government, identify unfilled service needs, and plan for new service provision.

This process is beneficial to improving your case management and received services, as well as assisting PA HMIS
Participating Agencies to locate multiple housing or service options. Additionally, sharing information between PA HMIS
Participating Agencies can reduce the number of times you are asked for repeated information. By consenting to share
this information with participating agencies, you will allow PA HMIS to provide better coordination between PA HMIS
Participating Agencies in an effort for you to obtain and maintain permanent housing.

Information collected in the PA HMIS database is protected in compliance with the standards set forth in the Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Every person and agency that is authorized to read or enter
information into the database has signed an agreement to maintain the security and confidentiality of your information.
Any person or agency that is found to violate their agreement may have their access rights terminated and may be
subject to further penalties including legal action.

I UNDERSTAND THAT:

 In an effort to end homelessness and to better serve me and/or my family, the PA HMIS Participating Agency
identified at the bottom of this form will collect and may share my identifying information with other PA HMIS
Participating Agencies via PA HMIS.

 The intention and purpose of collecting and sharing my information is to help PA HMIS Participating Agencies
better understand and assist my/our needs, and to produce non-identifying, aggregate reports to the federal
government that can be used to track the program performance of these agencies.

 The PA HMIS participating agencies have signed agreements and are bound to implement policies to maintain
my information in a secure and confidential manner, as mandated by Federal and State laws.

 The release of my information does not guarantee that I will receive assistance. Alternatively, refusing to
release my information will not affect my opportunity to receive assistance.

 This authorization will remain in effect unless I revoke it in writing. I may revoke authorization at any time by
returning to the PA HMIS Participating Agency identified at the bottom of this form and signing a new consent
form using the “I do not agree” option. If I revoke my authorization, all information about me already in the
database will remain to retain usage history; however, it will be inactive and not updated. I further understand
that any revocation of this consent will not affect the waiver of confidentiality as to information already
disclosed.

PA HMIS Collaborative Client Consent
Release of Information via PA HMIS

 If I decline to release my information, it will be hidden from all other PA HMIS participating agencies, except in
the case of a referral. If I need to be referred to another agency for services, my information will be forwarded
to only that agency, regardless of my recorded data sharing preference.

Please choose an option:

✔ I agree to allow sharing of my information via the PA HMIS system with PA HMIS participating agencies.

I agree to allow sharing of my information via the PA HMIS system with PA HMIS participating agencies,
but wish to limit sharing of certain data elements (complete and attach the Release of Information
Supplement).

I do not agree to allow sharing of my information via the PA HMIS system with PA HMIS Participating
Agencies. I understand that if I need to be referred to another agency, only the data necessary to
complete the referral will be forwarded.
