## Hello, Rebecca: Hope attached file with both information for PM 2.5 and PM10 can work for you, although our study only did analyses with PM2.5. If you need more detail about study sites (clinical center), please contact to Dr. Eric Whitsel in UNC. He is PI for this study.

From: Yang.Rebecca@epamail.epa.gov [mailto:Yang.Rebecca@epamail.epa.gov] Sent: Tuesday , December 01, 2009 12:39 PM To: Zhu-Ming Zhang Cc: Stanek.Lindsay@epamail.epa.gov Subject: PM Air Quality Data Request Follow-up

**Dear Dr. Zhang,**

**My name is Rebecca Yang and I am writing to you on behalf of Dr. Lindsay Stanek and Ms. Beth Hassett-Sipple of the EPA. On October 20, 2009, an email was sent to you requesting descriptive**  **statistics on the air quality distribution data for PM 2.5 and/or PM10-2.5 for your study listed below.**

**Because the PM Integrated Science Assessment will be finalized mid -December, we are hoping to receive all the necessary data by Monday, December 7th. In order to clarify our request and answer any**  **questions you may have, I will be contacting you by phone on Friday, December 4th. The statistics of most interest for the 24-hour concentrations of PM2.5 and/or PM10-2.5 are the following:**  **- 95th percentile - 96th percentile**  **- 97th percentile - 98th percentile**  **- 99th percentile**

**- maximum concentration value**

**If your study contains thoracic coarse PM data, then the PM10 data for the same statistics as above are**  **also requested. If the above data is unavailable, the statistic of most interest is the 98th percentile for the**
**PM2.5 size fraction.**

**In respect for your time, if there is another researcher/co-author who may be able to handle this air quality data request (i.e., has easier access to the data), I would greatly appreciate his/her name and contact**  **information. Please also note that any data you provide will be placed in the EPA's public docket.**

### I apologize for the inconvenience but the data you provide is critical for inclusion in the EPA **' s Integrated** 

**Science Assessment and Policy Assessment Document for Particulate Matter . Unless I hear from you otherwise, I look forward to speaking with you on Friday, December 4th! Thank you for your time!**
