Environmental Community Air Monitoring Program
Fiterman Hall— 30 West Broadway
Airtek Project 05-0867 — January 10, 2006
Initial Community Air Monitoring locations are identified on the drawing
included in Attachment A (Community Monitoring) to this specification. If the
environmental air monitoring locations need to be changed during the
Deconstruction phase due to site conditions, NYS DOL and USEPA Region 2
office will be notified promptly. The community air monitoring locations will not
be moved until NYS DOL and the USEPA Region 2 office accept the change.
5.0 Interpretation of Sample Data
The Target Air Quality Levels and EPA Site Specific Trigger Levels for the Site are set
forth in Attachment A, Table 2.
The following actions will be taken if there is an exceedance of Target Air Quality Level.
If there is an exceedance of both the Target Air Quality Level and the EPA Site Specific
Trigger Level, actions under the EPA Site Specific Trigger Level heading below will
govern.
5.1 Target Air Quality Levels
Any 24-hour PM2.s and PMio value in excess of the Target Air Quality Level will
be considered an "exceedance" and the actions described below will be taken.
During the first week of sampling any sample of an analyte other than PM2.5 and
PMto in excess of 3 times the Target Air Quality Level for that analyte, unless
superceded by an EPA Site-Specific Trigger Level, will be considered an
exceedance and the actions described below will be taken.
Following the first week of sampling, a "rolling average" will be established
based initially on the first week's results, to which will be added daily values as
results are received from the laboratory. A rolling average value for any analyte,
other than PM2.5 and PMio, in excess of the relevant Target Air Quality Level will
be considered an exceedance of Target Air Quality Level and the actions
described below will be taken.
Exceedance of an established Target Air Quality Level for any analyte calculated
as provided above will result in an evaluation of engineering controls and work
techniques in the source area. This evaluation shall include but not be limited to
the evaluation of work activities that may be causing the exceedance, smoke
testing of the isolation barriers in question, and inspection and repair of any faulty
isolation barriers.
