NYC 9/11 Public Portal Document

Mr. Bernard P. Orlan January 24, 2002 Wipe Samples for Metals Page 2 P. S. 234(’Manhattan') ATC Project No. 15-19125-0279

There are no established regulatory values for these metals on surfaces. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) has clean-up objectives for metals in soil but not for surfaces. There are no Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards that are applicable to this circumstance.

Wipe Sample Results

Eight metals were detected in all three samples. Cd, Co and Mo were not detected. Al, Cu, Mg and Zn were also found in the blank. Metal concentrations are shown in the following chart.
