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.
