reproductive harm; or serious and permanent res-
piratory or other injury. Some examples of these
chemicals are: lead from lead-based paints, crys-
talline silica from bricks, concrete and other masonry
products and natural stone, arsenic and chromium
from chemically-treated lumber. Your risk from these
exposures varies, depending on how often you do
this type of work. To reduce exposure to these
chemicals, the operator and bystanders should
work in a well-ventilated area, work with ap-
proved safety equipment, such as respiratory pro-
tection appropriate for the type of dust generated,
and designed to filter out microscopic particles
and direct dust away from the face and body.
Avoid prolonged contact with dust. Wear protec-
tive clothing and wash exposed areas with soap
and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth,
eyes, or to remain on your skin may promote absorp-
tion of harmful chemicals.
