Atlantic City sent all of its firefighters for testing for lead exposure after two firehouses were closed when it was discovered that lead dust was kicked up during recent renovations.
Atlantic City's Fire Chief said cracking and pealing paint at Station #6 and Station #3 had been sanded and scrapped while firefighters remained stationed there.
"We got information two of our firehouses have lead, we've sent our employees to get tested, it was a very aggressive response," Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small said.
