NYC 9/11 Public Portal Document

Post Cleaning Samples - Three air, three micro vacuum, and five wipe samples were collected. The three air samples were analyzed using PCM, TEM AHERA, and PCMe. The PCM results were all below the secondary numeric criterion of 0.01 ficc. The TEM AHERA and PCMe analysis could not be conducted due to overloading of particulate material.

The results for the three micro vacuum samples indicate that asbestos was present at levels generally lower than those observed before cleaning. One of the samples was identified as non-detect, although asbestos was detected below the detection limit.

The results for the five wipe samples that were collected indicate that asbestos was present in two of the five samples at lower concentrations than the pre-cleaning samples. One of the two samples in which asbestos was detected was below the detection limit.

Post 2”^ Cleaning Samples - Six asbestos air samples were collected after the second cleaning. The samples were analyzed for PCM, ITEM AHERA, and PCMe. The PCM results were all below the secondary numeric criterion of 0.01 f/cc and were at lower concentrations than after the first cleaning. The TEM AHERA results were all below the secondary numeric criterion of 0.022 S/cc; two of the six samples were below the detection limit. The PCMe results were at or below the primary clearance criterion of 0.0009 S/cc; three of the six samples were below the detection limit.

Dioxin Before Cleaning Samples - Four pre-cleaning wipe samples were collected and analyzed for dioxin. The results indicate that dioxin was present; however, the TEQ concentration for each sample was below the primary clearance criterion of 4 ng/m^.

Post P‘ Cleaning Samples - Four post-cleaning wipe samples were collected and analyzed for dioxin. The concentrations of dioxin detected were lower than those of the pre­ cleaning samples. The TEQ concentration for each sample was below the primary clearance criterion of 4 ng/m^.

Gypsum Before Cleaning Samples - Pre-cleaning samples were not collected.

Post 1" Cleaning Samples - Two air samples were collected after the first cleaning. Gypsum was not detected in any sample. Because gypsum was below the detection limit in all of the samples collected, no additional samples were collected for analysis of gypsum.

Lead Before Cleaning Samples - Four micro vacuum samples and four wipe samples were collected. Lead was detected in three of the four micro vacuum samples at concentrations below the comparison value of 25 pg/ft^ one sample was below the detection limit. Three of the four wipe samples had detectable concentrations of lead above the primary clearance criterion of 25 pg/ft^ while the fourth sample was below the detection limit.
