1.0 SUMMARY
Exygen Research extracted and analyzed water, sludge, and sediment samples for the determination of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) according to Exygen Methods VOOOl780, VOOOl781, and V0001782, respectively (Appendix A).
The limit of quantitation for PFOA in water was 25 ng/L. The limit of quantitation for PFOA in sludge and sediment was 0.2 ng/g (wet weight).
Analytical results for the analysis of PFOA in water samples are summarized in Table I. Analytical results for the analysis of PFOA in re-extracted water samples are summarized in Table 11. Analytical results for the analysis of PFOA in sludge samples are summarized in Table 111. Analytical results for the analysis of PFOA in sediment samples are summarized in Table IV. Quantitative results were obtained for all samples and analytes except for samples from sites DAL-GW-138R-0-060412, DAL-GW-138S-O060412, DAL-SD-OSPO1-0-0000, and DAL-SD-OSP02-0-0000 that are not reported (NR) due to quality control failures.
Fortification recoveries for PFOA in the water samples are detailed in Table V. The average percent recovery k standard deviation for PFOA in the water samples was 75 f 22%. Fortification recoveries for PFOA in the re-extracted water samples are detailed in Table VI. The average percent recovery f standard deviation for PFOA in the reextracted water samples was 99 f 16%. Fortification recoveries for PFOA in the sludge samples are detailed in Table VII. The average percent recovery for PFOA in the sludge sample was 69%. A standard deviation was not calculated for PFOA in sludge because only one sample was analyzed. Fortification recoveries for PFOA in the sediment samples are listed as NR in Table VIII. The average percent recovery k standard deviation for PFOA in the sediment samples was not calculated due to quality control
failures.
Fortification recoveries for I3CPFOA in the water samples are detailed in Table IX. The average percent recovery & standard deviation for 13CPFOA in the water samples was 75
f 26%. Fortification recoveries for 13C PFOA in the re-extracted water samples are
detailed in Table X. The average percent recovery f standard deviation for 13CPFOA in the re-extracted water samples was 97 k 34%. Fortification recoveries for 13CPFOA in
the sludge samples are detailed in Table XI. The average percent recovery k standard deviation for 13CPFOA in the sludge samples was 49 f 16%. Fortification recoveries for
13CPFOA in the sediment samples are listed as NR in Table X I . The average percent
recovery f standard deviation for I3C PFOA in the sediment samples was not calculated due to quality control failures. Percent recoveries have not been reported for samples that contained analyte levels three times or greater than the fortification level. Percent solids for sludge and sediment samples are detailed in Table XIII.

6.1 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 CISSPE 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 Extraction Procedure for Sludge
Before the samples were weighed for the extraction, they were mixed thoroughly by vigorous shaking the sample container. A 5-gram portion of sludge 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 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.
6.3 Extraction Procedure for Sediment
Before the samples were weighed for the extraction, they were mixed thoroughly by vigorously shaking the container. A 5-gram portion of sediment was weighed into a fiftymilliliter centrifuge tube for the extraction. After fortification of appropriate samples, 35 mL of 1% acetic acid in water was added to the samples. The samples were vortexed and allowed to shake on a wrist action shaker for -60 minutes. The samples were centrifuged for -20 minutes at -3000 rpm. The supernatant was then loaded onto a CISSPE cartridge conditioned with 10 mL of methanol and 20 mL of water. The eluate was discarded. Twenty milliliters of methanol was added to the sediment samples left in the centrifuge tube. The samples were vortexed and allowed to shake on a wrist action shaker for another 30 minutes. The samples were centrifuged again for -20 minutes at -3000 rpm. The supernatant was then loaded onto the same CIS SPE cartridge. The eluate was collected into a 500 mL Nalgene Bottle. The column was washed with 4 mL of methanol. The wash was collected in the same bottle as the eluate. Approximately two hundred milliliters of water was added to the bottles. The samples were mixed by shaking and loaded onto another c18 SPE cartridge conditioned with 10 mL of methanol and 20 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

Interim Report #24 - Analysis of Water, Sludge, and Sediment Exygen Study No.: PO000760
graduated 15 mL polypropylene centrifuge tube. Each sample was analyzed by LC/MS/MS electrospray.
6.4 Percent Solids Determination For Sludge and Sediment
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 sample was then dried in an oven overnight at
104 f2 "C.Then the sample was 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.
6.5 Preparation of Standards and Fortification Solutions
A mixed stock standard solution of PFOA and I3C 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:

6.9 Quantitation and Example Calculation
Fifteen microliters of sample or calibration standard were injected into the LCRLISMS. The peak area was measured and the standard curve was generated (using l/x fit weighted linear regression) by Analyst software using six concentrations of standards. The concentration was determined from the equations below.
For water and sludge samples:
Equation 1 calculated the amount of analyte found in sludge and water (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.
For samples fortified with known amounts of PFOA and I3C PFOA prior to extraction, Equation 2 was used to calculate the percent recovery.
Equation 2: Recovery (%) =
[analyte found ( n a ) - analyte in control ( n a ) ) x100%
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 sludge PFOA found in ng/L to ng/g (ppb).
Equation 3:
PFOA found (ppb) = [PFOA found (ndL) x volume extracted (0.04L)I 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 [loo% / total solids(%)]
NOTE: Total solids (%) = [wet weight (8) / dry weight (g)] x 100%

From equation 1 : Analyte found (ng/L)
= J406453- 66601 x 100 456
= 87700ndL
From equation 2: % Recovery
= (87700 ng/L - 53000 ng/L) x 100% 50000 ng/L
= 69%
From equation 3: PFOA found (ppb)
= (87700 n d L x 0.04L)
5g = 702ppb
From equation 4: PFOA found (ppb) dry weight = 702 ppb x (100% / 22.83%)
= 3070ppb
Note: Numbers may vary slightly due to rounding.
For sediment samples:
Equation 5 calculated the amount of analyte found in sediment (in ng/mL, based on peak area) using the standard curve (linear regression parameters) generated by the Analyst software program.

Interim Report #24 - Analysis of Water, Sludge, and Sediment Exygen Study No.: PO000760
Equation 5: Analyte found (ng/mL) = (Peak area - intercept) x DF slope
Where: DF = Dilution Factor, factor by which the final volume was diluted, if necessary.
For samples fortified with known amounts of PFOA and 13CPFOA prior to extraction, Equation 6 was used to calculate the percent recovery.
Equation 6: Recovery (%) =
Janalyte found (ndmL) - analyte in control (ndmL)) x 100%
amount added (ng/mL)
Note: For the PFOA recovery calculation, the "control" is the unspiked aliquot of the primary field sample.
Equation 7 was used to convert the amount of sediment PFOA found in ng/mL to ng/g (PPb).
Equation 7:
PFOA found (ppb) = IPFOA found (ng/mL) x volume extracted ( 5 mL)] sample weight ( 5 g)
Equation 8 was then used to calculate the amount of PFOA found in ppb based on dry weight.
Equation 8:
PFOA found (ppb) dry weight = PFOA found (ppb) x [loo% / total solids(%)]
NOTE: Total solids (%) = [wet weight (g) / dry weight (g)] x 100%

From equation 7: PFOA found (ppb)

7.0 EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
I3C PFOA was used as a surrogate for all the samples except the rinse blanks. I3C PFOA was added to the sludge and sediment samples and sample replicates in the laboratory after collection. I3C PFOA was added to the water 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 water sample bottles were filled to a 200 mL volumetric fill line in the field except for C0169347 and C0169354, which were filled to 250 mL, and C0171088, which was filled to 230 mL.
The water samples and trip blank samples were analyzed in thirteen sets. Each set included one reagent blank and two reagent blanks fortified at known concentrations. The first water set contained two sample sites and one trip blank and its associated spikes. Water sets two through twelve contained three sample sites each. The thirteenth water set contained one sample site and two trip blanks and their associated spikes. For each site, a sample, a field duplicate and two or three matrix field spikes were collected. For each site, a laboratory duplicate of the primary sample was extracted and two laboratory matrix

spikes were also extracted. For the two laboratory matrix spikes, two 40 mL portions of the primary sample collected for the site was poured from the bottle and fortified. Not only was PFOA added in the laboratory prior to extraction, but I3CPFOA was also added. The additional I3C PFOA was added because the levels of PFOA spiked into the samples were known to exceed the calibration ranges and were not analyzed without dilution; therefore, I3C PFOA levels were adjusted to require the same dilution as the other analytes.
The re-extracted water samples were analyzed in three sets. Each set included one reagent blank and two reagent blanks fortified at known concentrations. The first set contained eighteen samples with appropriate spiking levels. The second set contained fourteen samples with appropriate spiking levels. The last set contained six samples and the appropriate spiking levels. For the two laboratory matrix spikes, two 40 mL portions of the primary sample collected for the site was poured from the bottle and fortified. Not only was PFOA added in the laboratory prior to extraction, but I3CPFOA was also added. The additional I3C PFOA was added because the levels of PFOA spiked into the samples were known to exceed the calibration ranges and were not analyzed without dilution; therefore, I3C PFOA levels were adjusted to require the same dilution as the other analytes.
The single sludge sample was extracted in one set. The set included one reagent blank and two reagent blanks fortified at known concentrations. For each sample, a laboratory duplicate of the sample and two laboratory matrix spikes were also extracted. The laboratory spikes were fortified with known concentrations of PFOA and 13CPFOA.
The two sediment samples were extracted in one set. The set included one reagent blank and two reagent blanks fortified at known concentrations. For each sample, a laboratory duplicate of the sample and two laboratory matrix spikes were also extracted. The laboratory spikes were fortified with known concentrations PFOA and I3C PFOA.
8.0 RESULTS
Analytical results for the analysis of PFOA in water samples are summarized in Table I. Analytical results for the analysis of PFOA in re-extracted water samples are summarized in Table 11. Analytical results for the analysis of PFOA in sludge samples are summarized in Table 111. Analytical results for the analysis of PFOA in sediment samples are summarized in Table IV. Quantitative results were obtained for all samples and analytes except for samples from sites DAL-GW-138R-0-060412,DAL-GW-138S-O060412, DAL-SD-OSPO1-0-0000, and DAL-SD-OSP02-0-0000 that are not reported (NR) due to quality control failures.
Accuracies were assessed for each sample by reviewing the individual QC results obtained for each sample site. For the water samples, there were two laboratory and two or three field spike recovery results available for each sample site that were used to assess

the accuracy. In instances of failed laboratory or field spikes, recoveries associated with other spikes were used to assess sample accuracy. For the sludge and sediment samples, there were two laboratory spike recovery results available for each sample site that were used to assess the accuracy. In instances of failed laboratory spike recoveries, the samples were not reported due to the quality control failure.
Fortification recoveries for PFOA in the water samples are detailed in Table V. The average percent recovery k standard deviation for PFOA in the water samples was 75 f 22%. Fortification recoveries for PFOA in the re-extracted water samples are detailed in Table VI. The average percent recovery & standard deviation for PFOA in the reextracted water samples was 99 f 16%. Fortification recoveries for PFOA in the sludge samples are detailed in Table VII. The average percent recovery for PFOA in the sludge sample was 69%. A standard deviation was not calculated for PFOA in sludge because only one sample was analyzed. Fortification recoveries for PFOA in the sediment samples are listed as NR in Table VIII. The average percent recovery f standard deviation for PFOA in the sediment samples was not calculated due to quality control failures.
Fortification recoveries for I3CPFOA in the water samples are detailed in Table IX. The average percent recovery f standard deviation for 13CPFOA in the water samples was 75 f 26%. Fortification recoveries for I3C PFOA in the re-extracted water samples are detailed in Table X. The average percent recovery f standard deviation for 13CPFOA in the re-extracted water samples was 97 f 34%. Fortification recoveries for 13CPFOA in the sludge samples are detailed in Table XI. The average percent recovery f standard deviation for I3CPFOA in the sludge samples was 49 If: 16%. Fortification recoveries for 13CPFOA in the sediment samples are listed as NR in Table XII. The average percent recovery k standard deviation for 13CPFOA in the sediment samples was not calculated due to quality control failures. Percent recoveries have not been reported for samples that contained analyte levels three times or greater than the fortification level. Percent solids
for sludge and sediment samples are detailed in Table XIII.

The above methods use analytical conditions capable of separating the isomers of 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 of 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 preclean4 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 of PFOA. All containers used for water sample collection will be shipped to the sample location containing 100 ng of I3CPFOA (equivalent to 500 ng/L in the final sample). Samples will be added to each container to a volumetric fill line at 200 mL. A field duplicate, a low field spike and a high field spike of 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/SpecPremier wide mouth HDPE bottle per sample collected or a zip-seal bag. All containersbags 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. "C-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. '.'C-PFOA will also be added to each
sample in the laboratory prior to extraction at the level specified below.
I Low and high spiking levels for each matrix are defined below:
Matrix
I LowPFOA I HighPFOA I "C-PFOA
Recoveries are anticipated to be between 70% and 130% of the fortified levels; however, the exact precision and accuracy will be determined by the analysis of the quality control samples described above. A statement of accuracy will be included in the final report.
Prior to sample analysis, a laboratory control spike study will be conducted in water to justify the use of I3C PFOA results to establish precision and accuracy of PFOA samples. The following samples are to be prepared:

1) Addta~~9.l:Section9.1.6,AltemabweightsofBtandardsmaybewedto prepare alternate concentrations of stock solutions as mcessary. Alternate levels of
fortiRcationsolutions may also be prepared. 2) Low and highspiking levelsof the analytes for each matrix may be altered depending on sample stze available far exbaction andlor to cover analyte concentrations expected
in the samples.
RATIONAL5
1) Higherconcentralions of standardsneedto be preparedin order to spike the sample
bottles at higher levels. 2) The samplesize available for smell mammalliver and semwas smaller than expected. Spiking at the prsdebrmlnedlevels h the protocol putsthesplked ancantration lawer than the detecbion limit Also, the analyte levels in the gnxlnd water samples are expecbd to greatly exceed the pre-determinedspiklng levels listed Inthe pmtocol. When the levels in the samples greatly exceed the spiking levels, an accurate
recoveryvalue cannot be calculatedfor the QC sample. Higher spiking levels in the
bottleswill c o w the anaJyte concentrationsexpeded Inthe water samples.
IMPACT ON STUDY
The LOQ is 100 ng/gfor a 0.1 g sampleof m Umammal liver and is 1000 ng/mLfor a 0.01 ml Sampb of small mammal serum. Higher levels of spiking for the water sampleswill ensure that more QC recoverydata
can be used.

DESCRIPTION OF AMENDED SECTION
Analytical Procedure Summary: V0001780:"Method of Analysis forthe Determination o
Perfluoroooctanoic Add (PFOA) inWater by LCIMSIMS."
AMENDED TO
The reanalysis of two water samples, DFOS-GW-I31R-0-040126 and DFB-GW-135L-0.
040121 will be performed using the following procedure: An aliquot of the water sample is spiked with the surrogate standard andlor other matri) spike compounds as appropriate. Add methanol to the fortified aqueous sample. Mi) and aliquot for LClMSlMS analysis. The LC conditions include the use of a Betasil C18
2.1 x 50 mm column, a gradient of 30% B to 100% B in 10 minutes, where A=2mN ammonium acetate in water and B=Methanol (6 rnin equilibration). Use a 5 pL injectior
volume and a 0.3 mUmin flow rate. LC conditions may be further modified a6 appropriate for the system being used. An interim report will be issued that will include
the exact details of the reanalysis.
RATIONALE DFOS-GW-I31R-0-040126 and DF8b-GW-135L-0-040121 could not be reportec quantitatively in interim report #3 due to quality control sample failures. The study director and sponsor have requested reanalysis using the above conditions.
IMPACT ON STUDY No negative impact on the study. More usable data may be obtained.
