Sampling was conducted on June 8, 2010 and completed over an eight hour sampling <br /> period. During the sampling period, Del-Tech personnel visually checked the sampling <br /> pumps on an hourly basis for fluctuations in the flow rate and corrected and recorded any <br /> deviations of more than 5 percent from the initial value. After sampling was completed, <br /> each pump was re-calibrated to determine the post-test value. The pretest and post-test <br /> values were averaged over the total sample time to calculate an average value that was <br /> used to calculate a total volume for each sample cassette. <br /> After sampling, the sample cassettes were removed from the sample pumps and labeled, <br /> packaged, sealed, and stored in a secure location. The following day, all samples were <br /> shipped to ATEML for analysis. A completed chain-of-custody from, detailing the <br /> sample I.D. numbers, date and time collected, analysis requested, and other project <br /> information accompanied the samples to the laboratory. Each sample was analyzed for <br /> asbestos by NIOSH Method 7402 (Revision#1) using transmission electron microscopy. <br /> MONITORING RESULTS <br /> Field monitoring of meteorological data was recorded electronically at the Forward <br /> Landfill weather station. During the sampling event on June 8, 2010, the average <br /> temperature was 78 degrees with a high of 84 degrees and a low of 69 degrees. The <br /> average wind speed was 10 miles per hour out of the northwest and the average relative <br /> humidity was 35%. <br /> The analytical results reported by ATEML for the asbestos samples are summarized in <br /> the table below. As shown in the table below, asbestos was not detected at any of the <br /> sample locations. <br /> Summary of Asbestos Concentrations <br /> Forward Landfill <br /> Sample Average Flow Sample Asbestos Asbestos <br /> Station Rate Volume Concentration Concentration <br /> (Liters min) (Liters) (Fibers/cm3 Air) (AgAdM3 Air) <br /> A 1.8 864 <0.0011 <0.00103 <br /> B 2.3 1104 <0.0009 <0.000842 <br /> C 1 1.5 720 <0.0014 1 <0.00131 <br /> D 1.7 816 <0.0012 <0.00112 <br /> E 1.7 816 <0.0011 <0.00103 <br /> 2 <br />
