I OTE: All samples (cassettes and wipes) will be preweighed by the laboratory or supplier prior to sample collection. After sample collection and upon receipt of the samples by the laboratory, the
o iboratory will weigh the sample wipe or cassette prior to performing the analysis This may change depending upon the avaiiabiiity of preweighed materiais. May coiiect samples for total dust.

Silica will be collected as a dust samples as is Lead. This was decided since pulverized silica would be particulate like and not fiber like os with asbestos and MMVF.
