Regulatory Submittal Part II -
Environmental Community Air Monitoring Program
Fiterman Hall — 30 West Broadway
Airtek Project 05-0867 — January 10, 2006
Mercury:
In addition to metals monitoring for mercury particulate using Iodated Carbon Traps
(ICT), real-time monitoring will be performed. The readings will be entered into an
electronic format for inclusion with the daily download of sample collection data.
Real-time monitoring will be performed daily throughout the project. Mercury
monitoring will be performed utilizing a Lumex RA 915+ direct read instrument.
The Lumex RA915+ will be utilized to obtain detection levels below established Site air
contaminant criteria. At a minimum, mercury readings will be taken twice a shift at the
fixed air monitoring locations. At the discretion of the EC and as daily Site conditions
may dictate, additional mercury readings may be taken.
Organic Compounds (Dioxin/PCBs/PAHs):
Organic compounds samples will be collected at specified points along the project
schedule as follows:
1. On the first day of the Background Phase, one sample of each organic
compound at each community monitoring location will be collected (three
total samples per location). The samples from the location with the highest
particulate readings will be analyzed.
2. Organics samples will be collected weekly during the Abatement Phase and
Deconstruction Phase. Samples from the location with the highest particulate
readings for that day will be submitted for analysis. This will result in the
processing of the samples that have the best likelihood of representing the
"worst case." A total of three samples per week, one Dioxin, one PCB, one
PAH will be analyzed.
3. Samples for organic compound analyses will be analyzed within fourteen days
under normal laboratory analysis turn-around time
