Introduction
i
Pace Analytical Services, Inc. was contracted by the 3M Company to recollect
1
samples for the Port St. Lucie Multi-City Study, The sampling was originally
conducted in July 1999 by Battelle. The resampling was conducted to confirm
1
basaline information obtained during the July 1899 event, Target analytes for this
-
event are PFOS, PFOSA, POAA, PFHS, and TFA (luorochemicals). Surface
1
water samples were also analyzed for metals. The area of greatest interest was
the quiet surface water located near Martin County Marina (Mapp Rd and SW
1
Chapman Way).
:
1
Emphasis was placed on quality control measures such as extensive field matrix
spiking at multiple concentration levels, duplicate samples, and procedures to
1
reduce possible contamination during field collection. The sampling was
1
conducted according to the specifications set forth in the 3M General Project
Outline (GPO), except as noted in the report section "Deviations to the GPO", A
1
summary of the field observations can be found in Table 1. Sampling locations
were located for future reference with GPS longitude and latitude coordinates
1
and are listed in Table 2.

Sampling Protocols
|
Equipment Preparation: The 1 liter NalgeneTM sample containers used for
sampling were rinsed with "Optima' grade methanol and DI (Type | water) prior
|
to use. Transfer devices, such as the stainless steel bucket, were field
:
decontaminated between samples by mechanical removal of visible
|
contaminants followed by a thorough rinsing with methanol and Type | DI water.
New nitrile gloves were wom at all times during the equipment preparation,
|
sample collection and handling procedures. New gloves were donned with every
changeof sample location and/or sample matrix.
|
Surface Water Samples: Samples were collected approximately 15 cm below
the surface of the water by first submersing the sample container into the water.
|
Then the container was uncapped, filled and recapped while continually
|
submerged (Figure 1). This procedure was used to avoid capturing a possible
concentrated surface film layer.
|
Sediment Samples: Samples were collected using a stainless steel scoop. The
sediment samples were collected at the corresponding subsurface water`sample
|
location. Approximately the top 2 centimeters of sediment were collected into
the scoop. The scoop was then raised slowly to the surface to avoid loss oftop
|
sediment layer (Figure 2).
Tap Water Samples: Samples were collected directly into the sample container
|
via the cold water tap.
Wastewater Treatment Sludge: This sample was collected using a stainless
|
steel bucket and a nylon rope. The first two feet of nylon rope above the point of
attachment to the bucket was rinsed with methanol and Type | water in the field
|
prior to use.

Field Observations
|
+ A summaryofthe field observations can be found in Table 1.
* Municipal Drinking Water Plant: The drinking water plant has added adeep
.
|
aquifer (approximately 1350 feet) to the plant intake source. This water is
treated via reverse osmosis and is referred to as the RO water. This site was
|
not available for collection during the 1999 Battelle sampling event, per site
|
contact Brad Macek. The RO site was collected in addition to theoriginal
shallow aquifer (approximately 100 feet). The shallow aquiferundergoes
|
lime-softening treatment. The outflow from the plant is a blendofthe RO and
lime softened waters. The plant refers to the plant outflow as the "point of
1
entry" because this water enters the city water system.
1
+ North Port Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP): The final effluent for the
WWTP is at the Injection Well (Figure 3). This is the point where the effluent
1
is injected into the ground. Samples were collected at this point, but after
further discussions with site contact Carl Norton, it was determined this water
1
would not be representative of the effluent collected by Battelle in 1999. This
sampling point is now a blend of the WWTP effluent and waste reverse
I
osmosis (RO) water from the drinking water plant. The samples were
`submitted to the laboratory, but effluent samples were also collected at the
l
chlorine contact chamber (Figure 4). Per Carl Norton, the chlorine contact
1
chamber effluent would be representative of the discharge collected in 1999.
Chlorination was not occurring in the chlorine contact chamber at the time of
|
sampling. Note Figure 5, which shows the algae-like film on the surface of
the pond leading to the injection well.
1
Port St. Lucie Landfill: There were two leachate ponds in use. The
operators were currently pumping into Pond #3 and pumping out of Pond #4.

|
|
Samples were collected from Pond #4 using a pond sampler. The sample
container was inverted as it was submerged into the leachate pond to
I
minimize the entryof surface leachate into the container.
|
Fire Department -- Station #5: The cold water tap to the kitchen sink was
purged for approximately 5 minutes and the sample was collected. No
1
abnormalities noted.
.
+ Stuart Harbor: This site is located just off the NW comer of Jefferson
1
Bridge. The sediment appeared to be relatively clean sand. There appeared
to be some landscaping activities occurring approximately 100 yards to the.
1
west.
k
Pendarvis Park: The cold water tap samples were collected from the
1
women's restroom. The surface water samples were collected by walking out
on the concrete boat landing to avoid stiming up sediment. Sediment
1
samples were collected approximately 20 yards to the right of the landing. A
light rain started during the surface sampling and the 3M project coordinator
1
Jess Eldridge was contacted. Per that first phone conversation, as long as
the rain remained light, finish Pendarvis Park sampling. A second phone call
1
was made to Jess Eldridge after collecting Pendarvis Park. The rain had
1
become heavier and outside sampling activities were halted for the day to
allow the surface water systems to settle. Total rainfall for the event was
1
0.23 inches and lasted approximately one hour.
+ Holiday Inn: Samples were collected in room 413 after purging the cold
1
water line for ten minutes. The water remained near ambient temperature.
Nothing abnormal noted.
1
+ Martin County Marina: GPS coordinates from the 1999 sampling event
indicated the sampling location to be within the boat docking area. This area
1
ofthe marina was littered and had several boats in dock, so a sampling point
was selected just outside the boat docks.
1
Quite Surface Water: The pond was relatively small (approximately 200 feet
1
X 200 feet) see Figure 6. The water was fairly clear with some minnows.

{
present. Styrofoam, plastic bags, a can and a bottle were some of the litter
|
noted in the water (Figures 7 and 8). Sampling was conducted approximately
45 feet away from visible litter. The technician waited approximately five
1
minutes after stepping into the water to allow bottom sediment to settleprior
to collecting the water sample.

Deviations from the GPO
+ Addition of the deep aquifer- reverse osmosis sampling point at the drinking
|
`water plant.
|
* Addition of the chlorine contact chamber sampling point due to changes at
.
the wastewater treatment plant.
|
+ Pendarvis Park samples were collected during light to moderate rainfall.
Sampling at Martin County Marina and the Quiet Surface water occurred with
|
24 hours of a rain event. GPOrequested dry conditions for a 24 hour period
prior to sampling.
|
* Per the July 11, 2000 phone conversation with Jess Eldridge, use of the
subsurface water sampler would be needed only if a sampling configuration
|
required its use. The surface water samples were collected manually by
hand.
I
+ Benchmark locations for GPS accuracy confirmation were not located due to
construction activities.
1
+ As mentioned in the "Special Precautions, QA/QC" section of the GPO,Zip
Lock bags and aluminum foil were to be tested for background levels of
1
fluorochemicals. The Zip Lock bag was clean but the aluminum foil had
1
some positive results. As a precaution, after this information was made
known, the sediment scoops which had been cleaned and wrapped in foil,
1
`were rinsed with "Optima" grade methanol and Type | water in the field prior
to use. The data regarding the aluminum foil will be evaluated and re-
i
analyzedif necessary.
