Lead based paint disposal is strictly regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency and most state agencies because of the damaging and often life threatening consequences of lead poisoning. Lead based paints have been banned for many years, yet many older buildings and structures still are contaminated with lead based paint. Lead based paint can be found on many different substrates such as wood found in window frames and the metal of old warehouse shelving.
Old stocks of industrial lead paint are still in existence and require safe transportation and disposal. The Pro-Teck lead paint disposal specialists will prepare a Tailored Waste Solution to manage projects such as disposal of lead contaminated debris from housing demolition or the safe packaging and transportation of an old, leaky stockpile of lead paint cans, always in full compliance with all local, federal and state regulations.
Pro-Teck is an authority in lead paint removal regulations for CT, NY, NJ, MA and other Northeast states. Lead paint, lead contaminated soil, and other lead tainted products are all governed by the EPA’s Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and procedures are closely monitored because of the potential for danger to human health and groundwater contamination. It is imperative to choose a waste management service with a real working knowledge of these regulations and solid experience in lead disposal plans.
