Mass of the particles > 10 m that are NOT captured by the pre-collector (Mass 2)

Common Assumption:Samplers produce a "nominal" cut,because it is commonly assumed thatMass 1 = Mass 2. In other words, theerrors offset one another.

The assumption is only valid when thePSD's are described by a uniformdistribution and encompass a sufficient

Questions1) Health based studies – are the PM data

used in the studies comparable?

A. Are we comparing apples to apples?

Plant A (M-201a)MMD = 3.7 m

2) If I stand at the property line that separates Plant A and B will Plant B’s (higher PM10 sampler based concentration) emissions more negatively impact my health? 0.6
