Acetone is a common solvent m a variety of industrial processes and is ihe principal component nail polish remover. It has occasionally been detected in indoor samples, however a specific source has not been identified in this case.

Xylene is another solvent frequently found in paints and coatings. Its presence in the Main Lobby sample cannot be linked to any specific activity in the building, it may be a trace contaminant from outdoors.

No other HCs in the panel were present in the samples above the limits of detection for the analyses.

ATC appreciates the opportunity to provide this air quality service to the DOE. Please call (212) 353-8280 extension 370 or 212 if you have any questions.
