Airtek Project 05-0701 - August 10, 2005
- Volatile organic compound (VOC) toxic constituents will be analyzed by
Method 8260B of "Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste,
Physical/Chemical Methods," EPA Publication SW-846. VOC toxic
constituents include benzene (D018), carbon tetrachloride (D019),
chlorobenzene (D021), chloroform (D022), 1,4-dichlorobenzene (D027), 1,2-
dichloroethane (D028), 1,1-dichloroethylene (D029), methyl ethyl ketone
(D035), tetrachloroethylene (D039), trichloroethylene (D040), and vinyl
chloride (D043).
- Semivolatile organic compound (SVOC) toxic constituents will be analyzed
by Method 8270C of "Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste,
Physical/Chemical Methods," EPA Publication SW-846. SVOC toxic
constituents include 2,4-dinitrotoluene (D030), hexachlorobenzene (D032),
hexachlorobutadiene (D033), hexachloroethane (D034), o-cresol (D023), m-
cresol (D024), p-cresol (D025), cresol (D026), nitrobenzene (D036),
pentachlorophenol (D037), pyridine (D038), 2,4,5-trichlorophenol (D041),
and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (D042).
- Pesticide toxic constituents will be analyzed by Method 8081A of "Test
Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods," EPA
Publication SW-846. Pesticide toxic constituents include chlordane (D020),
endrin (D012), heptachlor and its epoxide (D031), lindane (D013),
methoxychlor (D014), and toxaphene (DO15).
- Herbicide toxic constituents will be analyzed by Method 8151A of "Test
Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods," EPA
Publication SW-846. Herbicide toxic constituents include 2,4-D (D016) and
2,4,5-TP (also known as Silvex, D017).
- Mercury (D009) will be analyzed by Method 7470A (aqueous samples) of
"Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods,"
EPA Publication SW-846.
- Metals/inorganics other than mercury will be analyzed by Method 6010B of
"Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods,"
EPA Publication SW-846. These constituents include arsenic (D004), barium
(D005), cadmium (D006), chromium (D007), lead (D008), selenium (DO10),
and silver (DO1 1).
Generally, building components would not be considered as possible RCRA
characteristic wastes except for the potential that exists due to impacts by WTC
dust. The notable exceptions to this would be painted surfaces, which would
typically be sampled for TCLP lead, cadmium and chromium analysis as well as
miscellaneous materials containing hazardous components prior to WTC impact
(such as transformers, ballasts, lamps, etc.).
