The visual classification of dust in the apartments was also compared to the ranking for each
apartment. There was general agreement between the visual observations and the analytical
results in that five of the six units that were classified as having significant dust accumulation
ranked in the top six places. This indicates that visual observations of dust is an indicator that
41 contaminants associated with WTC-related dust may be present.
2^ach contaminant per sampling type was ranked based upon the average concentration per unit with the
highest average concentration receiving a rank of 1 and the remaining values continued in ascending order up to
12. The ranking for each combination was then summed for each unit to determine which unit had the highest
overall concentration of contaminants. The sum of the rankings for each compound per unit indicates that 5C
contained the highest concentrations of contaminants prior to cleaning. Note that the lower the sum of ranks, the
higher the concentration of total contaminants.
Unit 4B is not included in the list of rankings because there were no lead micro vacuum samples collected in this
unit. As a point of reference, the sum of the ranks for 4B for the asbestos, lead, and MMVF wipe samples totals
27. This indicates that this unit would have placed in the bottom-tier of the rankings.
2^In units where personal belongings were retained, the items were cleaned and bagged, simulating a
situation where no belongings were present.
