The Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill
Assume that you work for Acme Industrial Hygiene Consultants and you are at an event conducting air samples. In your paper, you will discuss:
•What was going on during sampling?
•What was your sampling method?
•What are your results?
You are expected to use the AIHA Statistical Spreadsheet to assist you in analyzing the data. To access the spreadsheet please follow the following directions:
You will also need to discuss:
•The descriptive statistics for the dataset
•The number of samples above the OEL (if any)
•What the 95th percentile exposure level would be?
•What exposure category you would put the workers' exposure into (e.g., 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4)?
You will find that each data set has a number of samples broken down into different activities. Assume that each activity would be a different SEG. Select 1 or 2 SEGs for the purpose of your analysis and report. If you choose to use the World Trade Center data, you can choose from either the Lower Manhattan Asbestos Data, or the Staten Island Asbestos Data.
