  3. Sampling locations

  4. 24 h samples; EPA’s one in six day sampling schedule; 5/1/2006-4/30/2007 Carbonyls ATEC 2200 sampler DNPH cartridges EPA method TO-11A Particulate metals PM10 Hi-Vol. Quartz microfiber filters EPA method IO-3.5 Volatile Organic Compounds ATEC 2200 sampler canisters EPA method TO-15 Arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, chromium, lead, manganese, nickel Benzene, carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, 1,3-butadiene, 1,2-dichloropropane, methylene chloride, tetrachloroethylene, trichlororethylene,vinyl chloride Formaldehyde, Acetaldehyde

  5. Nez Perce County Demographic Comparison Expect lower concentrations than in other U.S. data.

  6. Potential Concern >50% detects exceed the chronic screening threshold Formaldehyde Acetaldehyde Benzene Carbon tetrachloride Tetrachloroethylene 1,3-Butadiene Arsenic Manganese

  7. Chronic Inhalation Cancer Risk Comparison 30-year chronic cancer risk screening values from EPA Region 3 and highest annual mean concentrations from any site in the Lewiston study were used to generate estimated risk numbers.

  8. Regional Comparison La Grande, OR May 2006-April 2007 rural NATTS site Longview, WA May 2004-May 2005 Pulp & paper, urban setting Seattle, WA 2005 Spokane, WA 2005

  10. ATSDR health consultation

  11. School Air Toxics Study 2009

  12. Sonic anemometer PM10 sampler Carbonyl sampler

  13. FaST Program 2011 • DOE funded • University professor and 2 students • PTR-MS – 1 minute resolution of air toxics

  14. VOC species to be measured by PTR-MS (1) subject to positive interferences from other hydrocarbons at low isoprene mixing ratios (< 100 pptv) (2) methylvinyl ketone + methacrolein

  15. Wet Mercury Monitoring
