~- The supply grime h 11; iy' r s found l have elevated levels of
bsbestaa fbe well above the reraommemded link of 1000 s us per
squw cent rater.. . This suggests that the ventilation system was
contaminated by asbestos when the buildings collapsed.
Mother Industrial Hygeniet, Monona Rossol, M.S., M.F.A.; concurs stating that'... the
finding of 555,000 asbestos structure per square centimeter is a clear indlotlon that the
ventilation system should be cleaned by a prof clonal duct cleaning company using
vacuum and cleaning equipment designed for asbestos decontamination. I would add that
the work must be done by trained and certified asbestos abatement workers who can
prevent contamination of other part of the building while they work [ew attached letter]
Further documentation Will be provided shortly. Please give this matter your immediate
attention and action. .
