Performance standards require approximately 98% accuracy in reporting and adherence to federal and state regulations. The document underscores HUD's commitment to operational excellence and public health safety, ensuring that all evaluations meet the highest quality benchmarks while protecting vulnerable populations from lead exposure. Overall, this initiative represents a significant federal effort to address lead hazards in housing and improve living conditions for affected communities.
