		<description>I recently retained a nationally-known company (with an innovative &quot;guaranteed for life&quot; paint system) to repaint our 1860&#039;s home.  We contracted with the company last fall, and are paying an extra $9,000 for stripping and prep (total for the job with just post-1978 construction stripping is $18,000  -- we&#039;re paying $27,000 total) because of the need to comply with the new EPA regulations on lead-paint removal.  The work started last week,  with the workman coming and leaving while my husband and I are work.  Our neighbors informed us that there has been NO tenting whatsoever of the work area, minimal dropcloths, no protective clothing on the workers,  one HEPA vacuum cleaner that was used only for clean-up.  (One of the neighbors took multiple pictures.) We called the company this morning to find out what was going on, and was told that they use a new  &quot;spray-on liquid&quot; technology that binds to the lead/dust, such that the traditional precautions are not necessary.   Is this a lot of hooey?  Even if there were such a liquid, wouldn&#039;t the usual dust containment procedures (tenting, taping) still be required?

This is Massachusetts, which has rules in addition to the EPA rules, but any information would helpful  -- especially is there is a new magic liquid that binds lead dust.  We are taking the day off from work this Friday to discuss the situation with the company’s field supervisor.  Is there anything more we should know or ask in prep for that meeting? 

Thank-you!

		<description>I&#039;m curious if anybody has heard of Energy Research Group, Inc.  and if they know about their reliability.  I&#039;m trying to make sure they&#039;re not a scam.  They advertise energy efficient windows (and siding, among other products) for a fraction of costs because they&#039;re subsidized by the government to help improve energy efficiency across the county.

In regards to this law, it is extreme in the least.  The costs to remove lead-based paint using these methods is alarmingly huge, and will cause homeowners to do one of 3 things:
not buy homes at all before 1978
go &#039;under the table&#039; by DIY or shoddy contractors who will do it under the table
not update their homes and continue to have lead-based paint (and just take it in the shorts when/if they sell)</description>

		<description>Therefore, In discussing the EPA law with several clients, that I have contracts with, they have told me that if we have to impliment the required proceedures they will not go forward with the job.   

I would be curious to know how many EPA employees will pay the extra costs involved with renovating their own homes.   Yes, it&#039;s the law, but when it comes to any home improvement project we all know that the wallet has a vote in all decisions.    So, the cost of hazard signs, hazard tape, test kits, masking tape, plastic sheeting, resperators, Tyvec suits, hepa vacs and filters, safety classes, EPA registration, insurance, additional record keeping (administration costs) labor to set up and tear down daily and the cost of lost productivity.   In all the procedural examples I&#039;ve seen in magazines no one working in Tyvek suits is wearing tools, how does a contractor work effectively without tools?  

What does a contractor do?   What are the options?   I will pay for and take the class, pay registration fee to the EPA, purchase the necessary supplies and equipment, spend the time and money to document everything then wait for business to drop off due to the extra client costs, did I mention that we are in the worst recession we&#039;ve seen in our lifetime, or maybe some of my counterparts will turn me in to the EPA because they suspect that my job is not in compliance and let the EPA put me out of business because one of an error in my documentation?

Or, maybe we contractors will suffer to the point that in order to get the work we will all drop our prices in order to keep food on the table and that will help to offset the additional job costs.

This law is supposed to be about public safety yet the public is allow to do their own work and any way they choose without any consequenses what so ever.   Except their exposure to lead but, we all know how that goes yet the EPA allows them the loophole.   So why not allow them the loophole to sign a waiver?  

Are there any other thoughts out there?   or, am I some kind of a nut case?</description>

		<description>To whom it may concern,
I have been in business for 20 years working in pre 1978 homes in 99% of my jobs.   I am neat and clean in my approach to my work, I don&#039;t I have never worn a resperator and yet I suffer no ill effects from lead.    

I advocate being safe but as usual the government takes an extreme, unrealistic approach to the situation based on special interest group reccomendations.   EPA throws out a bogus projected job increase of $35.00, which in keeping with normal government practices, doesn&#039;t even come close to the actual real costs, that complying to the law, will add to the job.</description>

		<description>I once worked on a commercial project. A nursing home in fact. the union foreman was a nice young man. A great painter, very skilled. Couldn&#039;t read or write, He had ADD and is dyslexic. I am betting he couldn&#039;t read the 78 page publication of the laws on lead paint and renovations. As a matter of fact I read all the paint can colors to him. He deserves a job at walmart and nothing more!!! His father was a painter, His grandfather was a painter and now he will probably be out of a job.  Welcome to the change, Obamaland.</description>
