The Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill
Assume that you work for Acme Industrial Hygiene Consultants and you are at an event conducting air samples. In yourpaper, 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 spreadsheetplease follow the following directions:
1. Go to www.aiha.org.
2. Use the search box to search for "Exposure Assessment Strategies Committee."
3. Click on "Exposure Assessment Strategies Committee."
4. Scroll down and select "New IHSTAT Macro-Free Version."
5. Once you have loaded the Excel document, make sure to click "Enable Editing" at the top of the spreadsheet.
6. Under the OEL section, insert the OEL for benzene or asbestos that you will use here.
7. Delete the existing data in the sheet, and enter the trailer sample dataset you choose.
8. As you populate the spreadsheet the statistics will calculate, and the graphs will begin forming the picture of theexposure profile of the trailers.
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)?
