Letter Health Consultation: Residential Property Sampling. 2009 Sampling Results. Former Jewett White Lead Property and Adjacent Residential Neighborhood, Staten Island, Richmond County, New York, February 24, 2010

摘要

The New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH), under the cooperative agreement with the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), has evaluated soil lead data collected by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) near the former Jewett White Lead property in Staten Island, Richmond County. In a January 2009 letter to the USEPA, the NYSDOH determined that additional soil sampling was needed to better characterize the on-site and off-site soil conditions. Based on USEPA follow up sampling, this letter summarizes NYSDOH's public health evaluation of potential exposures to lead in residential soils in the neighborhood south of the site and provides an update on actions taken on-site.
