EPA screwing contractors and homeowners

Small job lead abatement has never been worth it in the first place.

Friends just turned down a job at a church based on the ins costs along with the liability of the lead.
And they already have the equipment along with the workers trained in it.

This isn't lead abatement, this is remodeling, renovating, and painting.... Gotta do zip walls and white suits to do a single window replacement....

And some dude does a halfassed job and someone gets cancer in the house/business/whatever and sues everyone from the paint company to the GC's helper.

That what you want?

This is not about cancer, it's about lead poisoning in children under the age of six. Most elevated levels of lead in children is due to them ingesting the lead paint. I just don't understand your point......
