Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)• Chemicals that pass easily from a liquid
into a gas state• Commonly used in industry and in the
home• VOCs in soil and groundwater can
evaporate as vapors and can collect underbuildings potentially affecting the qualityof indoor air
Trichloroethylene (TCE)• VOC used for degreasing metal parts• Also used in consumer products
Tetrachloroethylene (PCE)• VOC used in clothes dry cleaning and
metal degreasing• Also used to make other chemicals and
found in some consumer products
• Air fresheners, candles, perfume• Hairspray, hair dye, aerosolized
products• Paints, varnishes and lacquers • Adhesives, glues, markers• Cleaning agents (e.g., bleach,
ammonia)• Rubber cement and epoxy adhesives• Paint and stain removers• Carpet/rug/upholstery cleaners • Refrigerant• Insecticides, fungicides and
pesticides• Flame retardant fabrics • Furniture polish and floor polish • Dry cleaning chemicals

• Prioritize efforts where the most significant problems have been identified at contaminated sites
• A chemical present at concentrations above its corresponding SL does not mean there is an immediate threat but it does mean additional evaluation is generallynecessary
• SLs are very stringent and have multiple levels of assumptions built in to be protective of public health
• SLs are updated periodically

INDOOR AIR AND SUBSLAB SAMPLING
28
Sampling Process
Indoor Air Samples Building survey: pre-
sampling questionnaire Identification of
household items that contain VOCs
Placement of canisters in targeted areas
Leave canisters for 24-hours to collect air(8-hours for business)
Return to retrieve canisters
Sub-slab (directly beneath foundation, typically in garage) or perimeter soil vapor samples collected (outside) for correlation with indoor air samples

• Air purifiers
• Sealing openings- filling in cracks in the floor slab and gaps around pipes and utility lines
• Vapor barriers- placing sheets of strong plastic beneath a building to prevent vapor entry
• Passive venting-installing a venting layer beneath a building
• Sub-slab depressurization- connecting a blower to a small suction pit dug into the slab to vent vapors outdoors
