pH" dust I/O Concrete has a high pH, if dust has a high pH, it may be contributing to reported symptoms of ENT irritation
Asbestos” dust I/O Determine if asbestos is present in dust
gypsum, mica, dust I/O Associated with building materials (concrete, calcite” drywall) and known to be irritating to ENT
magnesium dust I/O May act as a tracer for WTC-related dust, levels found in metals analysis of settled dust from 16,000-29,000 ppm * results will be used to better understand the potential for ENT and respiratory irritation, and possibly for determining the possibility of acute/chronic health problems. Results will assist in providing information/recommendations to the public (e.g., what is contributing to irritation, how to reduce exposures)
” to assist in characterizing dust that can become airborne (re-intrainment of settled dust that may be the source of continuing air contamination), and to make recommendations for outdoor dust remediation
