The proposed program would involve lead hazard control and associated minor rehabilitation on residential properties within the city limits of Johnstown and Berks and Fayette Counties. The target areas contain floodplains and project sites could be located within Flood Zones A, AE, A1-A30 or A99 as designated by the FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps.
