1.0 SUMMARY
Exygen Research extracted and analyzed soil samples for the determination of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) according to Exygen Method V0001781 and water samples for the determination of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) according to Exygen Method V0001780 (Appendix A).
Thirty-three of the analyzed soil samples were not reported (NR) due to quality control failure. Eight of the thirty-three samples failed because the PFOA spikes were too low relative to the endogenous level in the sample to allow assessment of matrix interference. Twenty-five of the thirty-three samples failed for unknown reasons. Additional analytical work was performed in an attempt to provide quantitative results for these thirty-three samples. Quantitative PFOA results were obtained for all samples except for nine soil samples that are not reported due to quality control failures.
The limit of quantitation for PFOA in soil was 0.2 ng/g. The LOQ provided is assuming wet weight values and the results for the actual samples are reported based on dry weight.
The limit of quantitation for PFOA in water was 25 ng/L.
Analytical results and assessed accuracies for the analysis of PFOA in soil samples based on dry weight are summarized in Table I. Analytical results and assessed accuracies for the analysis of PFOA in re-extracted soil samples based on dry weight are summarized in Table II. Analytical results and assessed accuracies for the analysis of PFOA in water samples are summarized in Table III. Field matrix spikes that were in the appropriate concentration range (primary concentration must be less than or equal to three times the spiking level) were used to calculate the assessed accuracies. When the field matrix spikes were not available or failed to meet recovery criteria, the laboratory spikes were used.
Fortification recoveries for the analysis of PFOA in soil samples based on wet weight are summarized in Table IV. The overall average percent recovery standard deviation for PFOA in soil samples based on wet weight was 80 19%. Fortification recoveries for the analysis of PFOA in re-extracted soil samples based on wet weight are summarized in Table V. The overall average percent recovery standard deviation for PFOA in re extracted soil samples based on wet weight was 74 18%. Fortification recoveries for the analysis of PFOA in water samples are summarized in Table VI. The overall average percent recovery standard deviation for PFOA in water samples was 92 7%.
Fortification recoveries for 13C PFOA in soil samples based on wet weight are summarized in Table VII. The average percent recovery standard deviation for 13C PFOA in soil samples based on wet weight was 91 32%. Fortification recoveries for C PFOA in re-extracted soil samples based on wet weight are summarized in Table VIII. The average percent recovery standard deviation for C PFOA m re-extracted soil

samples based on wet weight was 48 30%. Fortification recoveries for C PFOA in
water samples are summarized in Table IX. The average percent recovery standard
deviation for 13C PFOA in water samples was 107 14%.
The total percent solids for soil samples are detailed in Table X.

6.0 DESCRIPTION OF ANALYTICAL METHOD
The analytical methods "V0001781: Method of Analysis for the Determination of Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA) in Soil by LC/MS/MS" and "V0001780: Method of Analysis for the Determination of Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA) in Water by LC/MS/MS" were used for this study.
6.1 Extraction Procedure For Soil
Before the samples were weighed for the extraction, they were placed into a new, clean Ziploc bag and mixed thoroughly. The samples were then transferred back to the sampling container. A 5-gram portion of soil was weighed into a fifty-milliliter centrifuge tube for the extraction. After fortification of appropriate samples, 5 mL of methanol was added to the samples. The samples were allowed to shake on a wrist action shaker for -15 minutes and were then sonicated in an ultrasonic bath for ~15 minutes. The volume was taken to 40 mL with water and the samples were then centrifuged for -10 minutes at -3000 rpm. The supernatant was then loaded onto a Cjg SPE cartridge conditioned with 10 mL of methanol and 5 mL of water. The eluate was discarded. Approximately five milliliters of methanol was added to the cartridge. Five milliliters of eluate was collected into a graduated 15 mL polypropylene centrifuge tube. Each sample was analyzed by LC/MS/MS electrospray.
6.2 Percent Solids Procedure For Soil
Percent solids were determined using the procedure indicated in Exygen method V0000427. Approximately 20 grams of sample was weighed into a pan. The weight of the sample plus the pan was recorded. The samples were then dried in an oven overnight at 104 2 C. Then the samples were transferred to a dessicator and allowed to cool for -15 minutes. Each sample was then weighed again, including the weight of the pan. The percent solid for each sample was then calculated. See Table X for percent solids results.
One soil sample, C00159446, was weighed at ~8g for percent solid analysis, rather than at ~20g which is stated in the method. See deviation 6. The percent solid calculation was altered to reflect this change in mass.
6.3 Extraction Procedure for Water
A 40 mL aliquot of the water sample was used for the extraction procedure. After fortification of appropriate samples, the samples were loaded onto a Cis SPE cartridge conditioned with 10 mL of methanol and 5 mL of water. The eluate was discarded. Approximately five milliliters of methanol was added to the cartridge. Five milliliters of

eluate was collected into a graduated 15 mL polypropylene centrifuge tube. Each sample was analyzed by LC/MS/MS electrospray.
6.4 Preparation of Standards and Fortification Solutions
A mixed stock standard solution of PFOA and 13C PFOA was prepared at a concentration of 1000 pg/mL by dissolving 100 mg of each of the standards (corrected for purity and salt content) in 100 mL of methanol. From this solution, the following fortification standards were prepared:

6.5 Chromatography
Quantification of PFOA was accomplished by LC/MS/MS electrospray. The retention time of PFOA was ~11.2 min. Peaks above the LOQ were not detected in any of the reagent blank samples corresponding to the analyte retention time.
6.6 Instrument Sensitivity
The smallest standard amount injected during the chromatographic run had a concentration of 0.2 ng/g of PFOA for sediment samples and a concentration of 25 ng/L for water samples.

6.8 Quantitation and Example Calculation
PFOA concentrations are quantitated in nanogram of PFOA per liter of extract and then converted to nanogram per gram. Fifteen microliters of sample or calibration standard were injected into the LC/MS/MS. The peak area was measured and the standard curve was generated (using 1/x fit weighted linear regression) by Analyst software using six concentrations of standards. The concentration was determined from the equations below.
Equation 1 calculated the amount of analyte found (in ng/L, based on peak area) using the standard curve (linear regression parameters) generated by the Analyst software program.
Equation 1:
Analyte found (ng/L) = (Peak area - intercept) x DF Slope
Where: DF = Dilution Factor, factor by which the final volume was diluted, if necessary.

Interim Report #22 - Analysis of Soil Samples
Exygen Study No.: P0000760
For samples fortified with known amounts of PFOA and 13C PFOA prior to extraction, Equation 2 was used to calculate the percent recovery.
Equation 2: Recovery (%) =
(analyte found (ng/L) - analyte in control (ng/LV) xl00% amount added (ng/L)
Note: For the PFOA recovery calculation, the "control" is the unspiked aliquot of the primary field sample.
Equation 3 was used to convert the amount of PFOA found in ng/L to ng/g (ppb) in the soil samples.
Equation 3:
PFOA found (ppb) = fPFOA found (ng/L) x volume extracted (0.04D1 sample weight (5 g)
Equation 4 was then used to calculate the amount of PFOA found in ppb based on dry weight.
Equation 4:
PFOA found (ppb) dry weight = PFOA found (ppb) x [100% / total solids(%)]
NOTE: Total solids (%) = [wet weight (g) / dry weight (g)] x 100% An example of a calculation using an actual sample follows:

From equation 1: Analyte found (ng/L)
= fl21349 - 187001 x 10 1060
= 968 ng/L
From equation 2: % Recovery
= (968 ng/L - 502 ng/Ll x 100% 500 ng/L
= 93%
From equation 3: PFOA found (ppb)
= (968 ng/L x 0.04L)
5g = 7.74 ppb
From equation 4: PFOA found (ppb) dry weight = 7.74 ppb x (100% / 87.24%)
= 8.87 ppb
Note: Numbers may vary slightly due to rounding.
7.0 EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
13C PFOA was used as a surrogate for all of the samples. 13C PFOA was added to the soil samples in the laboratory after the samples were weighed for extraction. For soil samples designated as laboratory matrix spikes, PFOA was also added at a known concentration to the samples in the laboratory after the samples were weighed for extraction. For all o f the water samples, 13C PFOA was added to the sample collection bottles in the laboratory before being shipped to the field for sampling. For water samples designated as field matrix spikes, PFOA was also added at a known concentration to the bottles in the laboratory before being shipped to the field. The samples were filled to a 200 mL volumetric fill line in the field.
The soil samples were extracted in thirty-two sets. Each set included one reagent blank and two reagent blanks fortified at known concentrations. Twenty-two of the sets contained five samples sites and one set contained two sample sites. One sample was collected for each sample site. For each site, two laboratory matrix spikes and a laboratory duplicate were extracted. The last eight sets were re-extraction sets. Four sets contained eight samples, three sets contained seven samples, and one set contained six samples. Each re-extraction set consisted of one sample and variable laboratory matrix spikes.

The water samples were extracted in two sets. Each set included one reagent blank and two reagent blanks fortified at known concentrations. Set one contained three rinse blanks, two trip blanks with the associated spikes. Set two contained four rinse blanks and two trip blanks with the associated spikes.
8.0 RESULTS
Analytical results and assessed accuracies for the analysis of PFOA in soil samples based on dry weight are summarized in Table I. Analytical results and assessed accuracies for the analysis of PFOA in re-extracted soil samples based on dry weight are summarized in Table II. Analytical results and assessed accuracies for the analysis of PFOA in water samples are summarized in Table III. Field matrix spikes that were in the appropriate concentration range (primary concentration must be less than or equal to three times the spiking level) were used to calculate the assessed accuracies. When the field matrix spikes were not available or failed to meet recovery criteria, the laboratory spikes were used. Quantitative PFOA results were obtained for all samples except for nine soil samples that are not reported due to quality control failures.
Fortification recoveries for the analysis of PFOA in soil samples based on wet weight are summarized in Table IV. The overall average percent recovery standard deviation for PFOA in soil samples based on wet weight was 80 19%. Fortification recoveries for the analysis of PFOA in re-extracted soil samples based on wet weight are summarized in Table V. The overall average percent recovery standard deviation for PFOA in re extracted soil samples based on wet weight was 74 18%. Fortification recoveries for the analysis of PFOA in water samples are summarized in Table VI. The overall average percent recovery standard deviation for PFOA in water samples was 92 7%.
Fortification recoveries for 13C PFOA in soil samples based on wet weight are summarized in Table VII. The average percent recovery standard deviation for C PFOA in soil samples based on wet weight was 91 32%. Fortification recoveries for C PFOA in re-extracted soil samples based on wet weight are summarized in Table VIII. The average percent recovery standard deviation for 13C PFOA in re-extracted soil samples based on wet weight was 48 30%. Fortification recoveries for C PFOA in water samples are summarized in Table IX. The average percent recovery standard deviation for 13C PFOA in water samples was 107 14%.
The total percent solids for soil samples are detailed in Table X.
9.0 CONCLUSIONS
Except as noted above, the soil and water samples were successfully extracted and analyzed for PFOA according to analytical methods V0001781 and V0001780,

The above methods use analytical conditions capable o f separating the isomers o f PFOA. The final report will include the isomers summed into total PFOA found.
VERIFICATION OF ANALYTICAL PROCEDURE
A laboratory control sample will be used for the preparation o f fortified control samples. The test substance will be made into solutions as per the method, and added to the matrices via a micropipette.
For water sampling, Exygen will supply one bottle per sample collected. The bottles will be 500 mL precleaned Sci/Spec Premier wide mouth HDPE bottles. These bottles have been routinely used for PFOA sample collection at the testing facility and have been shown to be free o f PFOA. All containers used for water sample collection will be shipped to the sample location containing 100 ng o f l3C PFOA (equivalent to 500 ng/L in the final sample). Samples will be added to each container to a volumetric fill line at 200 m L. A field duplicate, a low field spike and a high field spike o f each sample will be collected. The low and high field spikes will contain PFOA as well as perfluorobutanesulfonate (PFBS), perfluorohexanesulfonate (PFHS), and perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS). These compounds are included in the solutions used to spike the samples. The results for PFBS, PFHS and PFOS will not be reported in this study. Exygen will supply one field blank (control water) and two field blank spikes (control water fortified with PFOA at a low

and high level) for every twenty samples collected. At the testing facility, each water sample (excluding field duplicates and field spikes) will be extracted in duplicate and will also be fortified at a low and high concentration with PFOA and processed through the described procedure to determine method accuracy and to check for bias.
For soil, sediment, clams, and vegetation, Exygen will supply one 500 mL precleaned Sci/Spec Premier wide mouth HDPE bottle per sample collected or a zip-seal bag. All containers/bags used for sample collection will be shipped to the sample location. Samples will be added to each container or bag in the field. At the testing facility, each sample will be extracted in duplicate and will also be fortified at a known concentration with PFOA at both a low and high level and processed through the described procedure to determine method accuracy and to check for bias. 13C-PFOA will also be added to each sample in the laboratory prior to extraction at the level specified below.
For small mammal liver, Exygen will supply a 50 mL polypropylene centrifuge tube. For small mammal serum, Exygen will supply a collection kit for each sample containing serum separator tubes (red top), vacutainers, needle holders and needles, transfer pipettes, and polypropylene tubes. At the testing facility, each liver and serum sample will be extracted in duplicate and will also be fortified at a known concentration with PFOA at both a low and high level and processed through the described procedure to determine method accuracy and to check for bias. 13C-PFOA will also be added to each sample in the laboratory prior to extraction at the level specified below.

11.0 Sample Extraction
11.1 Measure 1 mL o f u m p le into a SO m L polypropylene centrifoge tubes (fortify as needed, replace lid and mix well). Note that alternate volumes o f serum may be measured depending on the sample size available for use.
11.2 Add water to the sample for a final volume o f 20 mL. Cap tightly 11.3 Vortex fo r~ l minute. 11.4 Transfer 1 m L o f the sample using a disposable pipette into a 13 mL
disposable centrifoge tube. 11.5 Add 5 m L o f acetonitrile end shake for **20 m inutes on a wrist-action shaker. 11.6 Centrifoge the tubes at -3 0 0 0 rpm for - 5 minutes. 11.7 Decant die supernatant into a 30 m L disposable centrifoge tube and add 35
mL o f water. 11.8 Condition the C u SPE cartridges (1 g, 6 m L) by passing 10 mL methanol
followed by 3 mL o f HPLC wafer (~ 2 drop/sec). Do not let column ran dry 11.9 Load the se n a te on conditioned C u SPE cartridge. Discard eluate. 11.10 Elute with - 2 m L o f methanol. Collect 2 mL o f eluate into a graduated
13 m L polypropylene centrifoge tube (final volume * 2 mL). 11.11 Analyze samples using olectroapray LC/MS/MS.
12.0 Chromatography
12.1 Iqject the same amount o f each standard, sample ami fortified sample into the LC/MS/MS system. A calibration standard must precede and follow all analyzed samples.
12.2 Standard o f PFOA c o n -p o n d in g to at least five o r m ore concentration levels must be included in an analytical a ct
12.3 An entire set o f calibration standards must be included at the beginning and at foe end o f a sample s e t Standard! must be interspersed between every 3*10 samples. As an alternative, an entire set o f calibration standards may be injected at the baginning o f a set followed by calibration standards interspersed every 5-10 samples (to account for a second set o f standards), in either case, calibration standards must be the first and last injection in a sample set.
12.4 Use tin e standard curves fix quantitation. Linear standard curves are generated for die analyte by linear regression using 1/x weighting o f peak area versus calibration standard concentration using M assLynx 3.3 (or equivalent) software system.
12.5 Sample response should not exceed standard responses. Any samples that exceed standard responses should be further diluted end reanalyzed.

Method o f A n a ly st fix the Determination o f Perfiuorooctinoic Acid (PFOA) in Small Mammal Seram by LC/MS/MS
13.0 Acceptance Criteria
13.1 Chromatogram must show a peak o f a daughter ion at 369 amu from a parent o f 413 amu. The 413 amu parent corresponds to 'th e PFOA anion, while the daughter Ion (369 amu) represents die lost o f carbon dioxide.
13.2 Method blanks must not contain PFOA at levels greater than the LOQ. If a blank contains PFOA at levels greater than 10 ng/mL, then a new blank sample must be obtained and the entire set must be re-extracted.
13.3 Recoveries o f control spikes and matrix spikes m ust be between 70-130% o f their known values. I f a control spike falls outside die acceptable limits, the entire set o f samples should be re-extracted. Any matrix spike outside 70 130% should be evaluated by die analyst to determine if re-extraction is warranted.
13.4 Any calibration standard found to b e a statistical outlier by using the Huge Error Test, may be excluded from the calculation o f the calibration curve. However, die total number o f calibration standards diet could be excluded must not exceed 20% o f the total number o f standards injected.
13.5 The correlation coefficient (R) fix calibration curves generated must be 20.992 (RJ 20.915). I f calibration results fall outside these limits, then appropriate steps must be taken to adjust instrument operation, and the standards or the relevant set o f samples should be reanalyzed.
13.6 Retention times between standards and samples must not drift more than 4 % within an analytical run. I f retention time drift exceeds this limit within an analytical ran then the set must be reanalyzed.
14.0 Calculations
14.1 Use the following equation to calculate the amount o f PFOA found (in ng/mL, baaed on peak area) using die standard curve (linear regression parameters) generated by the Mass Lynx aoftw ve program:
PFOA found (ng/mL) - (Peak area - intercept1) x D F x aliquot factor slope
DF factor by which die final volume was diluted, if necessary. Aliquot factor 20
14.2 For samples fortified with known amounts o f PFOA prior to extraction, use the fbllowing equation to calculate the percent recovery.
Recovery (%) -
[total analyte found (ng/mL) - analyte found in control (ng/mL)] analyte added (ng/mL)

1) Add to Section 9.1: Section 9.1.8, Alternate weights ofstandards may be used to
prepare alternate concentrations of stock solutions as necessary. Alternate levels of fortification solutions may also be prepared.
2) Low and high spiking levels ofthe analytes foreach matrix may be altered depending on samplesize available for extraction and/orto coveranalyte concentrations expected
in the samples.
RATIONALE 1) higher concentrations ofstandards need to be prepared in orderto spflre the sample bottles at higher levels. 2) The sample size available for smal mammal liver and serum was smaler than expected. Spiking at the pre-determined levels in the protocol puts the spiked
concentration lowerthan the detection Bmit Also, the analyte levels In the ground water samples are expected to greatly exceed the pro-determined spiking levels listed in the protocol. When the levels in the samples greatly exceed the spldng levels, an accurate recovery value cannot be calculated forthe QC sample. Higher spiking levels In the bottles will coverthe analyte concentrations expected In the water samples.
IMPACT ON STUDY The LOQ is 100 ng/9 for a 0.1 g sample ofsmal mammal Overand Is 1000 ngAnL for a 0.01 mL sample ofsmall mammal serum. Higher levels ofspiking for the water samplesw ll ensure that more QC recovery data can be used.

AMENDED TO The reanalysis of two water samples, DF09-GW-131R-0-040128 and DFB-GW-13SL-0040121 will be performed using the foiowing procedure: An aliquot ofthe watersample is spiked with the surrogate standard and/or other matrix spike compounds as appropriate. Add methanol to the fortified aqueous sample. Mix and aliquot for LC/MS/MS analysis.. The LC conditions include the use ofa Betesit C18, 2.1 x 50 mm column, a gradient of 30% B to 100% B in 10 minutes, where A2mM ammonium acetate in water and B=Methanol (6 min equKbretion). Use a 5 |iL Injection volume and a 0.3 mL/min flow rate. LC conditions may be further modified as appropriate for the system being used. An interim report win be issued that will include the exactdetails oftne reanalysis.
