Re: federally acceptable count for buildings is 200-400 parts per million??

[Guest guest]

Something is wrong with this picture. I'm glad they had it checked

and I'm glad they took care of themselves, but the lab data is

screwy. I'd like to know what type of sample gave him data in parts

per million. I don't know of any. Also, what federally accepted count

exists? I don't know of any. Even the standard for aiborne dust that

does exist is NOT in parts per million.
