Lead Paint Clean Up
by Megan Hall
WRNI (May 15, 2008)

Today three paint companies will appeal a superior court ruling holding them financially responsible for removing lead paint from over 250,000 buildings in Rhode Island. If the state Supreme Court upholds the decision, Sherwin Williams, NL industries, and Millennium Holdings will have to pay for a massive clean up program that may require as many as ten thousand people licensed and trained to remove lead paint. WRNI's health care reporter Megan Hall takes a closer look at the people who do that work already.
