Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grind-
ing, drilling, and other construction activities con-
tains chemicals known to the State of California to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Leadfromlead-basedpaints.
• Crystallinesilicafrombricks,cement,and
other masonry products.
• 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 your
exposure to these chemicals: work in a well venti-
lated area, and work with approved safety equip-
ment, such as those dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
