Bob and Lori did not touch the dust since it was not a familiar material, and they were uncertain about what was in it. EPA and others collected dust during the initial days but completed either a less extensive or a more specific set of analyses. Early Sunday morning on the 16th of September, I met Cliff Weisel at his home and we drove into Manhattan. It was very difficult to get around, but we managed to park south of Canal Street, which was defined during the aftermath as an upper boundary for entry into Lower Manhattan.

They include the aforementioned types, but most can be described as all the types of particles that are 12 CHAPTER 1 greater than 10 µm in diameter. These larger particles preferentially deposit, up to 100 percent, in the nasal-pharynx (nose and windpipe) regions of the respiratory system. However, small amounts can be deposited in the bronchial region of the lung, and a very tiny amount may even reach the gas exchange region of the lung.
