Cafeteria *BDL 0.00031 0.00039 PAH-1 Room 118 BDL BDL BDL PAH-2 fl. hallway BDL 0.0037 0.00021 PAH-3 Room 315 0.00024 0.00045 0.00040 PAH-4 Main Entrance BDL BDL 0.00028 PAH-5 Front courtyard BDL BDL BDL PAH-6 Playground BDL BDL 0.00024 PAH-7 Roof (intake) BDL BDL 0.00029 PAH-8 *BDL = Below Detection Limit

1-methylnaphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene were detected indoors only, naphthalene was detected both indoors and outdoors at similar concentrations.

Naphthalene is an aromatic hydrocarbon used in the manufacture of plastics, dyes, resins and pesticides and the two methylated derivatives are found in some plastics and wood treatment chemicals. ATC has no specific information concerning possible sources of these PAHs in the school building.

It is our pleasure to provide these indoor environmental services to the New York City Board of Education. If you have any questions about this report, please call (212) 353-8280, extension 212 or 261.

Sincerely, 4 TC ASSOCIA TES INi
