16. SILICA DUST WARNING
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and other materials
with silica in their composition my give off dut or mists cintainig crystalli-
ne silica. Silica is a basic component of sand, quartz, brick clay, granite
and numerous other minerals and rocks. Repeated and/or substantial
inhalation of airborne crystalline silica can cause serious or fatal respira-
tory diseases, including silicosis. In addition, California and some other
authorities have listed respirable crystallinesilica as a substance known
to cause cancer. Whwn cutting such materials, always follow respiratory
precautions.
Use appropriate NIOSH-approved respiratory protection where dust
hazard may occur. Paper masks or surgical masks without a NIOSH
approval number are not recommended because they do little to protect
the worker. For more information about respirator programs, including
what respirators have received NIOSH approval as safe and effective,
please visit the NIOSH website at:
http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/respirators
Observe OSHA regulations for respirator use (29 C:F.R. § 1910.134).
Visit http://www.osha.gov for more information.
California proposition 65 message
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities contain chemicals know (to the State of Ca-
lifornia) to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
-Lead, from lead-based paints
-Crystalline silica, from bricks and 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 typer of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, work in
a well-ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such
as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic par
-
ticles. Where use of a dust extraction device is possible, it should be
used. To achieve a high level oof dust collection, use an industrial HEPA
vacuum cleaner. Observe OSHA 29 CFR part 1926.57 and 1926.103.
