Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities contains chemicals (known to
the State of California) to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.  Some examples of these chemicals are: 

• 

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 ventilated area and work with approved safety equipment such as those dust masks that are specially 
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
