Post f Cleaning Samples ~ Two air samples, three micro vacuum samples and four wipe
samples were collected after the first cleaning. The two air samples, all three micro
vacuum samples, and three of the four wipe samples were below the detection limit. The
fourth wipe sample was above detection limit but below the primary clearance criterion.
The results from the first cleaning indicate that the cleaning technique was effective in
removing the elevated concentrations of lead observed prior to the first cleaning. Because
the primary clearance criterion for lead was met after the first cleaning, no additional
samples were collected for analysis of lead.
Alpha-Quartz
Before Cleaning Samples - Pre-cleaning air samples were not collected.
Post Cleaning Samples - Two air samples were collected after the first cleaning. All of
the samples were below the detection limit. This indicates that the cleaning method used
was able to reduce the pre-cleaning concentration of alpha-quartz. Because all of the
samples were below the detection limit after the first cleaning, no additional samples were
collected for analysis of alpha-quartz.
Calcite
Before Cleaning Samples - Pre-cleaning air samples were not collected.
Post P‘ Cleaning Samples - Two air samples were collected after the first cleaning. All of
the samples were below the detection limit. Because all of the samples were below the
detection limit after the first cleaning, no additional samples were collected for analysis of
calcite.
Cristobalite
Before Cleaning Samples - Pre-cleaning air samples were not collected.
Post P‘ Cleaning Samples - Two air samples were collected after the first cleaning. All of
the samples were below the detection limit. Because all of the samples were below the
detection limits after the first cleaning, no additional samples were collected for analysis of
cristobalite.
Tridymite
Before Cleaning Samples - Pre-cleaning air samples were not collected.
Post P‘ Cleaning Samples - Two air samples were collected after the first cleaning. All of
the samples were below the detection limit. Because all of the samples were below the
detection limits after the first cleaning, no additional samples were collected for analysis of
tridymite.
MMVF
Before Cleaning Samples - Four pre-cleaning wipe samples were collected. One of the
four samples was below the detection limit; MMVF was detected in the other three
samples.
