Summary
The MOLD Act directs the Secretary of Defense to create interim and final standards for humidity, ventilation, dampness and water intrusion in privatized military housing. It mandates regular, third‑party inspections at tenant turnover, after complaints, and after any remediation, with results shared with tenants, commanders and Congress. The goal is to protect service members and their families from mold and related health hazards that can affect readiness.
