1.17.2. Dust Monitor and Control
1) Dust is a fine powdery material such as dry earth, pollen, which can be
blown about in the air. It is usually considered to be an atmospheric pollutant. The
smallest particles visible to the naked eye are between 50-100 microns. In the
construction industry, cutting and shaping of masonry, stone, brick, plaster and
concrete are considered dust hazards and nuisances. Rock or concrete breaking,
