Lead has been used by humans throughout the world for various utilitarian purposes for over 6,000 years. Its use began in North America with so-called "white lead" in Colonial times, and peaked in 1922. When lead-based paint was marketed before 1978, it was a legal product in great demand because it was washable and durable. It was repeatedly endorsed by the United States, state, and local governments and specified for use on government buildings until the mid-1970s. Its use peaked in 1922, and by 1940 the use of white lead pigments for interiors was on the way out.
In 1951, Baltimore was the very first jurisdiction in the U.S. to ban lead pigment in interior paint of Baltimore public housing.
In 1966, lead paint was banned for all housing in Baltimore.
In 1978, the Federal government ( U. S. Consumer Product Safety Commission) banned the use of lead-based paint for residential and other consumer purposes throughout the United States.
In 1992, the Federal government enacted the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act, commonly known as TITLE X(10), in an attempt to reduce the number of lead poisoning victims in the United States. TITLE X is enforced by the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) which enforces regulations related to rental property buildings that were built before 1978.
