Boston-based The Community Builders and nearly two dozen associated entities may be subject to a multimillion-dollar penalty for repeatedly violating federal lead paint disclosure laws.

An EPA complaint cites the large real estate corporation and 23 associated property owners for more than 800 violations of the federal Lead Disclosure Rule when they failed to disclose information about lead paint to people who leased apartments between 2003 and 2006 in 11 communities in Massachusetts and Connecticut.

The alleged violations occurred at TCB-managed housing in Boston, Fall River, Gloucester, Holyoke, Lawrence, Lexington, Springfield, Westfield and Worcester, and in  New Haven and Vernon, Conn.

TCB develops, finances and operates mixed-income housing, and manages more than 90 developments containing about 8,750 housing units in numerous cities in the eastern half of the U.S.
