Wipe samples will be collected at 10 percent of the residences where sampling only has been requested, up to a maximum of 13 residences, as instructed by EPA. This sampling will consist of the collection of 3 wipe samples each for dioxin, total metals and mercury (Note: a separate wipe sample is required for each parameter at each location). Metals and mercury wipe samples will be collected in accordance with procedures specified in HUD Appendix 13.1. Dioxin wipe samples will be collected in accordance with the procedures specified in ASTMD 6661-01.
