Hysterical, power-hungry EPA will require all property owners to have “no detectable level of lead dust in the air” – an impossible feat
10/30/2024 / By Lance D Johnson
 
Lead exposure is a serious health concern, especially for children, whose developing brains are drastically affected by the heavy metal. However, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is going a step too far in regulating the heavy metal on private property.

According to new rules released by Biden’s EPA — homes, apartment buildings and child care facilities must test completely negative for lead. Under most circumstances, this is completely implausible. Lead particulate matter is ubiquitous is air measurements across the world.

Instead of taking realistic steps to mitigate the risk of heavy metal exposures, this new rule gives the EPA unlimited power and uses hysterical measurements to seize control over private property.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I have dealt with EPA probably more than 99.999% of the population, and i can honestly say that the majority of these people are insane.

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

Another 3 letter agency that needs elimination as all states already take care of the epa mission

Very very early in my career, I went to a Texas Chemical Council advocacy meeting with my Plant Manager at the time, and he confided to me that he thought the environmental protection effort was a Communist plot.  At the time, i thought he was crazy, but in retrospect and over 40 years later?
