The EPA is starting a program April 22nd that will force all renovators and remodelers that work in homes pre 1978 to have their company and their selves certified through the EPA. I took their certification class this last Thursday. There was some good information to take away from it, but what I don’t understand is that you go through a real technical way to collect all dust during the project then turn around and throw it in the landfill. That’s right if it is less than 220 lbs (which most projects will be) you can just go throw it in the landfill. Does this make a lot of sense to you? On top of that they are really pushing to use tons of plastic to cover everything, and you can’t recycle it. That’s government for you. Yes we have increased the indoor air quality, but what will the side effects of this program be in 5 or 10 years. When will man become the solution and not the problem?
