NYC 9/11 Public Portal Document

Uniform guidance has been given to everyone to continue cleaning. The re-sampling protocol should be the same as that used during the initial sampling. New York City’s role in this study will be worked out today after this meeting.

Backgroimd Study - Percent volume data will also be collected. The additional data would be useful for all COC. - EPA contractors will be used for sample collection and analysis. - EPA anticipates that three to six months will be needed to complete both phases of this effort.

EPA Cleaning Protocol Effort — The protocol will be to clean different apartments at different levels. The preliminary protocol will be available by April 5“'. - On first cut, 66 samples per apartment would be needed for analysis. This number will be cut back. - Cleaning activities are still being performed which may not leave any uncleaned buildings for this study.

** A time line and critical path should be established for all of the studies.
