 They are planning on it, besides we should all have a Concern. Your taking the stance if this has nothing to do with me why should i help? Thats a Poor attitude if you dont mind me being frank.

Scott, you need to help the brothers in the industry. Period

One day you will need help, its coming. I have seen markets get destroyed by stupid laws.

We need support so this does not move to the residential side. Contractors being sited are bringing this to the authoritys attn as we speak/.

 You better Care, they are going to site you cleaning. 29 contractors sited, its ridiculous......get involved.

I couldn't give 2 squirts I love it, I will remember that one

 

Ron, what were the 29 guys sited for?

Ron, Scott,
Our counties around here are are looking to make every cent they can any way they can. There are county guys riding all over harassing contractors in every business. I know landscapers, painters that have told me about being stopped and some fined with Misc. violations...... some legit, some BS.
I had a county guy stop me from surface cleaning a residential driveway this past summer. He wanted to know what chemical I was using and why I was letting it run into the street and into the storm drain. There was no storm drain on this strech of road, and the water puddled and evaporated in the 98 deg SC sun. I don't use chems on driveways. I had to stop what I was doing, take him to my trailer and prove to him, I was not using chems. He left in a Huff...... and I did not get fined.
Now if I was doing a house wash and he stopped me....... I do use chems, would he have fined me for letting chems into the ground? Would  he even have the right to? These are things I would like to learn, so a round table that is just EPA or any EPA training is very welcome by me.

  Chris,  I think as long as the water doesn't leave the site you are okay.  Soaking into the ground is acceptable.

 Ron I watched this vid many times. This time your talking like a contractor, not a sales man for the vendors, like its been. This one is like some older vids you got. hands on chit...

Mike, I have been and still am a Contractor. This stuff has effected contractors in five citys over the last ten years with a complete stop in several for time periods.

Is anyone in hiouston willing to stop for a year until they sort it out? I think not!!!

We as contractors need to support the industry no matter where the fight is.

I'm in PHX and we went through this years back, there is no reason contractors should be subject to this.

The law is being misinterputed.

Like confident said in a diff thread, Scott, I think. Be ahead of the curve, or something like that.

 Its better to be ahead of the game.

 I cant afford it right now. My thoughts are making it to spring again! Again. LOL!!!
