NYC 9/11 Public Portal Document

Mr. Bernard P. Orlan August 30, 2002 Air Sampling for Lead Page 2 I.S. 306 X ATC Project No. 15-19125-0246

The established regulatory values for metals are intended for industrial workplace exposures and are not generally applicable to office/school settings. There are no standards for this metal in indoor air in non-industrial situations. The Environmental Protection Agency’s ambient air standard for lead is 1.5 micrograms per cubic meter of air (1.5 ug/m^), this is a three-month i) average. The sampling method used for these samples was an attempt to duplicate the EPA’s method of sample collection as described on the EPA’s September 11* website. The lead in air results reported there are from eight- hour samples.

H Yiannis Efstathiou and Herant Antonyant, Environmental Technicians from ATC’s New York City office, collected the samples.

Results

The levels of airborne lead collected outside the building did not exceed the limits of detection in any of the samples (<1.5 ug inb. Five (5) of the twelve (12) samples collected inside the building 1 exceeded the limit of detection (<1.5 ug/m’). Airborne lead concentrations in these five samples were: first floor lobby =1.9 microgram per cubic meter (ug/nY). auditorium = 1.7 microgram per cubic meter (ug/m'). gymnasium = 2.3 microgram per cubic meter (ug/m’). corridor A 4* floor HVAC #11 = 2.3 microgram per cubic meter (ug/mY. and boy’s locker room = 2.3 microgram per cubic meter (ug/m^).

ATC appreciates the opportunity to provide this indoor air quality service to the BOE. Please call me at (212) 353-8280 extension 212 if you have any questions.

Sincerely, ATC Associates, Inc.
