NYC 9/11 Public Portal Document

Mr. Bernard P. Orlan January 9, 2002 Air Sampling for Metals Page 2 P.S. 234 ('Manhattan') ATCProiectNpJ^J912i^279

TABLE 1 DETECTED METAL CONCENTRATIONS (ug/m^ *) Metal Indoors . , Outdoors

Chromium / 0.180 0.198-0.207

Copper 0.185 -0.951 0.233 .

micrograms per cubic meter of air

Copper was found in all four indoor samples and one outdoor sample. Chromium was found in one indoor and two outdoor samples. Only one indoor sample (M2, Room 118) and one outdoor sample (M5, Main entrance) contained both metals. "Two outdoor samples, from the courtyard and the playground, were indistinguishable from the blank.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has set a screening level for hexavalent chromium in air of 0.6 ug/m^, this assumes a continuous exposure for one year. The samples here were analyzed for total chromium (trivalent and hexavalent). The concentrations are well below the EPA level. The EPA has no published screening level or guideline for copper.

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.

James R. Cohn, CIH, CSP Regional Manager, Industrial Hygiene Division
