Abstract: The information collected through this survey will be used to estimate existing levels of key environmental contaminants in the nation's housing, including lead levels in paint, dust, soil and water, and mold and pesticide levels in dust. Two procedures to determine mold present in homes will be compared. For the first time, data will be collected to estimate formaldehyde concentrations in indoor air in a nationally representative sample of homes. The survey is particularly important for allowing the tracking of progress in reducing the prevalence of lead-based paint hazards in U.S. housing. This is a collaboration between HUD and EPA
