Re: Suspect Asbestos Containing Bulk/Dust Material Sampling 69 Murray Street "Common Areas" New York, New York October 5, 2001

JCB#: 01-2230

Dear Mr. Berman:

J. C. Broderick & Associates, Inc. (JCB) performed sampling of suspect asbestos containing bulk and dust materials observed at the above referenced location that were expected to be associated with the World Trade Center Tragedy that occurred on September 11, 2001. The inspection and bulk sampling was performed by New York State Department of Labor (NYS DOL) certified inspectors and sampling technicians. Chain of custody forms were prepared and the samples delivered to an independent Environmental Laboratory Approval Program (ELAP) certified laboratory for analysis.

The suspect materials were identified by JCB inspectors based upon visual observations, and information provided at the time of the inspection. The suspect asbestos containing materials were then identified and categorized with an identification number, and then a representative number of samples were collected. Sampling of the suspect asbestos containing materials was performed essentially in accordance with the "Specifications for Sampling Materials and Selecting a Qualified Laboratory to Analyze for Asbestos" as written in Appendix G of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) publication "Guidance for Controlling Asbestos Containing Materials in Buildings.

The samples were delivered to Long Island Analytical Laboratories, Inc. (LIAL) for analysis of asbestos content. LIAL's ELAP number is 11693. The friable suspect material was analyzed by ELAP Method 198.1/198.4 as per 40 CFR, Subpart F, Appendix A. Technical information regarding PLM method of analysis is available upon request.

An asbestos material is defined in Part 56 of Title 12 of the Official Compilation of Codes, Rules and Regulations of the State of New York as any material containing more than one percent (>1%) by weight of asbestos. By this definition, the results of the samples analyzed were recorded in the table below.
