After the water had dried on fcho bottom places it was noted that a small amount of rust still adhere, to the plates. A small portion of a dried plate/ v/as brushed vigorously with a stiff wire brash and a sample of tha rust was obtained and analyzed. The analysis disclosed the presence of lead. The analysis was qualitative and not quantitive. Since the analysis disclosed the presence of load I recommended that the entire bottom bo wire brushed again until no further material could be removed.
