How can employees of these stores and their customers manage lead hazards associated with these older building materials?
Answer: As a preliminary matter, your state may have laws or regulations addressing the management, handling or sale of materials containing lead-based paint. Therefore, building material reuse stores should contact both their state health department and state environmental agency for more specific direction. In addition to complying with all state…
