Respondent took occupancy of the apartment in January 2000. Respondent alleges that in April 2000, while she was eight months pregnant, she was informed by other tenants that there were instances of lead poisoning of children residing in the building and that the owner was aware of this situation. Respondent claims that she consequently contacted the building manager who informed her that she need not worry since her apartment was newly renovated. In November of 2002, respondent contends that her physician diagnosed one of her children as highly lead poisoned. A visit conducted on November 13, 2002 by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) resulted in a finding of lead present in the apartment.
