Re: TSCA 8(e) Substantial Risk Notice: Supplemental to Docket No. 8EHQ-0598-373; Sulfonate-based and Carboxylate-based Fluorochemicals - Cordova, IL well water sampling
To whom it may concern,
3M is submitting this notice to supplement its previous submissions on sulfonyl-based and carboxylate-based fluorochemicals and more specifically, our September 5, 2006 submission on water samples taken from groundwater wells and from the water distribution system at the 3M plant site in Cordova, Illinois.
The data contained in the 2006 submission and in this submission have been generated as part of an on-going site-related environmental assessment of fluorochemicals that 3M is performing for its 3M Cordova, Illinois manufacturing facility. As part of this effort, which is being done with the involvement and approval of the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, 3M has recently received the enclosed well water data taken from various sites on and in the vicinity of the 3M pWlaenstt.waOyff(Csi-t2e)d, aCtaFIar(eC-li3m),itCedFIto(Cfi-v4e),caonmdmCeFrIci(aCl-w5)e.lls3,Mre'fseurrneddertostaansdRinivgerissttohnaet n(Con-el),of this water is used for drinking water purposes.
Enclosed please find a map depicting the sampling locations, a data summary table, and a final analytical report (Interim Report #2-Analysis of 3M Cordova Groundwater Samples: December 2009; Analysis of Perfluorobutanoic Acid (PFBA), Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA), Perfluorobutanesulfonate (PFBS), Perfluorohexanesulfonate (PFHS), and Perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) in Groundwater Using LC/MS/MS for the "3M Fluorochemical (FC) Assessment Work Plan for the 3M Cordova, ELFacility).
While 3M does not believe that any of these data taken alone or cumulatively meet the "substantial risk" reporting threshold as defined by the EPA, we nevertheless recognize the on pgolaincigngwothrekseofrtehsuelUts.Sin. tEhPeA8(teo) adsoscekssetflausoaroscuhpepmleimcaelnetxtpoopsruerveiopuasthswubayms.isTsihoenrse.fore, we are

The 3M Environmental Laboratory received one hundred forty-seven samples including one set o f trip blanks from the 3M Cordova fe d ity from Wsston personnel on December 1-3,2009 along with their chains o f custody (3M C O C. #15119 -15131). Samples were prepared and analyzed for Perftuorobutanoate (PFBA), Perfluorooctanoate (PFOA), Perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS), Perfluorohexane sulfonate (PFHS) and Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) under 3M Environmental Laboratory project number E07-0149.
The objective o f this study was to analyze collected groundwater samples from monitoring and production wells located at the 3M Cordova facility for the selected perfluorocarboxyiate and
perfluorosutfbnate analytes.
The 3M Environmental Laboratory prepared sample containers (250 mL polyethylene bottles) which were shipped to the 3M Cordova fa d ity prior to field sampling. Sample containers for each sampling location included a field sample, field sample duplicate, and three field matrix spike samples. Each empty container was marked with a "fill to here' Ine to produce a final sample volume o f 200 mL. Containers designated for field matrix spike samples were fortified with an appropriate matrix spike solution containing the analytes o f interest, prior to being sent to the field for sample collection. See section 8.9 o f the report for field matrix spike levels.
Samples were prepared and analyzed according to the procedure defined in 3M Environmental Laboratory methods ETS-8-154.3, ` Determination o f Perfluorinated Adds, Alcohols, Amides, and Sulfonates in W ater by Solid Phase Extraction and High Performance Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry' , ETS-3-110.1 "Method of Analysis for the Determination o f Perfluorinated Compounds in Water, Soil and Sediment by LC/MS/MS' , and ETS-8-044.0 "Determination o f Perfluorinated Compounds in W ater by LC/MS/MS; Direct Injection Analysis' .
Table 7 summarizes the sample results using the analytical methods identified above. All results for
quality control samples prepared and analyzed with the samples w ill be reported and discussed
elsewhere in this report. ' '

8.1.3 ETS-8-044.0
Calibration standards were prepared by spiking known amounts of the stock solution containing the target analytes into a laboratory-prepared synthetic groundwater containing calcium and magnesium. A total of twelve spiked standards ranging from 0.025 ng/mL to 25 ng/mL (nominal) were analyzed. The 2.5,10, and 25 ng/mL curve points were disabled for PFBS to meet method criteria. A quadratic, 1/x weighted, calibration curve of the ratio of the standard peak area counts over the internal standard peak area counts was used to fit the data for each analyte. The data were not forced through zero during the fitting process. Calculating the standard concentrations using the peak area ratios and the resultant calibration curve confirmed accuracy of each curve point. Each curve point was quantitated using the overall calibration curve and reviewed for accuracy. Method calibration accuracy requirements of 100*25% (10030% for the lowest curve point) were met for all analytes included in the calibration curve. The correlation coefficient (r) was greater than 0.995 for PFBS.

8.6 Lab Control Spikes (LCSs)
8.0.1 ETS-8*110*1
Lab control spikes were prepared in duplicate at two concentration levels (nominal concentrations of 5.0
ng/mL and 50 ng/mL. As the reference materials used for quantitation of PFOA and PFOS are
predominantly linear, and the analytes present In the water samples were expected to be comprised of
branched isomers, LCS samples of both inear and branched PFOA and PFOS were prepared in
triplicate, at two concentrations to evaluate the potential for analytical bias. Method ETS-8-110.1 does
not specify the number of required LCS or foe acceptance criteria, however, typical acceptance criteria
for LCS is an average recovery within 100% 1 20%, with a RSD 520%. All LCS results met these
criteria.

Low and high lab control spikes were prepared and analyzed in triplicate. LCSs were prepared by spiring known amounts o f the analytes info 40 mL of,reverse osmosis purified laboratory water to produce the desired concentration. The spiked water samples were then extracted and analyzed in foe same manner as foe samples. Analysis o f triplicate LCSs at the two specified levels cross-validates foe analytical method as used here for any modificatlons/deviations from ETS 8-154.3. The method acceptance criteria states that the average recovery of all LCS be between S0%-120% with a RSD s20%. All LCS samples met method acceptance criteria with the exception PFBA which had an average recovery of 126%. All LCS w ereused in the determination o f analytical uncertainty. A method deviation is filed with foe raw date.

8.6.3 ETS-8-044.0
Low and high lab control spikes were prepared and analyzed in triplicate. LCSs were prepared by spiking known amounts of the analytes into laboratory-prepared synthetic groundwater containing calcium and magnesium, to produce the desired concentration. The spiked water samples were then prepared and analyzed in the same manner as the samples. Due to the higher curve being disabled to meet method acceptnace criteria, the high LCS at 5 ng/mL could not be calculated as the area counts for these samples exceeded the calibration range. The method acceptance criteria, average of all LCS should be within 100% 1 20% with an RSD s20%. The average recovery for the low set o f LCS met method acceptance criteria.
The following calculations were used to generate data in Table 5 for laboratory control spikes.

8.7 Analytical Method Uncertainty
The analytical uncertainty was determined based on historical QC data that is used to evaluate method accuracy and precision. The method uncertainty is calculated following ETS-12-012.2. The analytical uncertainty was determined by the statistical evaluation o f the recoveries for the individual analyte as determined for laboratory control samples. The standard deviation was calculated for the set of recovery results (in %). The expanded uncertainty is calculated by multiplying the standard deviation by a factor of 2, which correspond with a confidence level of 95%, A minimum o f twenty data points is needed to determine method uncertainty by tills method.

8.9 Field M atrix Spikes (FMS)
Low and high field matrix spikes were collected at each sampling point (with the exception of the rinse blanks) to verily that the analytical method is applicable to the collected matrix. Reid matrix spikes are generated by adding a measured volume of field sample to a container spiked by the laboratory with the target analytes prior to shipping sample containers for sample collection. Field matrix spike recoveries within method acceptance criteria o f 10030% confirm that `unknown' components in the sample matrix do not significantly interfere with the extraction and analysis o f the analytes o f interest Field matrix spikes are presentedin the section 9 of this report.

8.10 Laboratory M atrix Spike (LMS)
The high field matrix spike concentration was not sufficient for sample location COIL-GW-MW-1-88 for PFBA and PFBS, for MW-1-90 for PFBA, for MW-9-90R for PFBA, for MW-1-79 for PFBA, and for MW9-94 for PFBA. Laboratory matrix spikes where prepared on the sample prior to analysis by ETS-8110.1. The preparation of a laboratory matrix spike was inadvertnetiy missed for location MW-9-94. A protocol deviation is included in the raw data package. LMS recoveries on this sample are presented on Table 9. Laboratory matrix spikes were prepared on the following samples:

The tables below summarize the sample results and field matrix spike recoveries tor the sampling locations as well as the Trip Blanks. Results and average values are rounded to three significant figures according to EPA rounding rules. Because o f rounding, values may vary slightly from those listed in the raw date. Field matrix spikes (FMS) recoveries meeting the method acceptance criteria o f 30%, demonstrate that the method(s) were appropriate for the given matrix and their respective quantitative ranges. In those instances where the most appropriate field matrix spike recoveries did not meet method acceptance criteria, analytical uncertainty has been adjusted accordingly and the date footnoted.
COIL-GW-MW-9-90R: The high field matrix spike was not sufficient for PFBA, therefore, a lab matrix spike (LMS) at 500 ppb was prepared. The recovery of the LMS for PFBA was 148%. Since the LMS was the only appropriate spike level as compared to the sample concentration, the analytical uncertainty for PFBA has been adjusted to 100% 48% . ;
COIL-GW-MW-1-79: The MS sample for PFHS had a recovery of 139%. The recovery o f the HS for PFHS was 90.8%. Since the MS was the most appropriate spjke level as compared to the sample concentration, the analytical uncertainty for PFHS has beenadjusted to 100% 39%.
The high field matrix spike was not sufficient for PFBA, therefore, a lab matrix spike (LMS) at 250 ppb was prepared. The recovery o f the LMS for PFBA was 145%. Since the LMS was the only appropriate spike level as compared to the sample concentration, the analytical uncertainty for PFBA has been adjusted to 100% 45% .
COIL43W-MW-3-79: The MS sample for PFOS had a recovery p f 69.1%. The recovery of the HS for PFOS was 79.7%. Since the MS was the most appropriate spike level as compared to the sample concentration, the analytical uncertainty for PFS has been adjusted to 100% 31%.
COIL-GW-MW-4-81 : The MS sample for PFBS had a recovery o f 131%. The recovery of the HS for PFBS was 106%. Since the MS was the most appropriate spike level as compared to the sample concentration, the analytical uncertainty for PFBS has been adjusted to 100% 31%.
COIL-C1 : The LS sample for PFOS had a recovery o f 66.9%. The recovery o f the MS and HS for PFOS was 80.2% and 85.4%, respectively. Since the LS was the most appropriate spike level as compared to the sample concentration, the analytical uncertainty for PFOS has been adjusted to 100% 33% .

The test system is groundwater. Additional sources may be added as requested. Sections 40 CFR 792.120 (6), (9). (10) and (11) are not applicable as only the analytical phase of this study is under the Good Laboratory Practices.
The test systems were chosen to access the impact of the reference substances in the 3M Cordova, Illinois facility, and are defined in the work plan. The samples will be collected by Weston Solutions and shipped to the testing facility. The control samples will be prepared by the testing facility.
Prior to collection, each sample bottle sent to the testing location will be identified with a laboratory sample reference number. This reference number will be unique and will distinguish each laboratory sample that is carried through the analytical procedure. Chromatographic data will be identified by the laboratory sample reference number.
8. S p e c im e n R e c e ip t
The groundwater samples will be collected from seventeen monitoring wells and five production wells from the 3M Cordova facility; Water samples will be collected by
Weston Solutions personnel and shipped to the 3M Environmental Lab on ice. Samples will be kept refrigerated at 2*C- 8C from the time of sample receipt until analysis.

9.1 Preparatory and Analytical Method Samples will be prepared and analyzed, usingETS-8-154: "Determination of Perfluorinated Adds, Alcohols, Amides' and. Sulfonates In Water By Solid Phase Extraction and High Performance Liquid Chfomatography/Mass Spectrometry". Extracted calibration standards will be prepared in a similar matrix (Mill! Q or matrix matched water) to be determined along with;the QC samples.
i`!
All containers used for water sample collection wilt be shipped to the sample location. A field duplicate and at least two levels of field;spikes of each sample will be collected. Some sites may have additional field spikesta bracket the possible concentration ranges of analytes in a location. The field spikes will contain PFBA, PFOA, PFBS, PFHS and PFOS. The field spikes will be used1to determine the precision and accuracy of the method for each site sampled. Laboratory spikes and laboratory duplicates will not be a component of this study but, if necessary, can be done with approval or by request of the study director.
Recoveries of field matrix spikes (FMS) are anticipated to be between 70% and 130% of the fortified levels. If the recoveries of the field spikes fall outside the acceptable range, the sample result will be reported as "NR" (not reported due to QC failures).

For each extraction batch at least three method blanks will be prepared. In addition, triplicate lab control spikes at a minimum of two different concentrations are to be performed with each extraction batch.
9.2 Methods for Control of Bins
Control of bias is accomplished using laboratory control samples (as indicators of method accuracy and precision) and blanks. Laboratory control samples are used to determine the overall data uncertainty for each batch. Milli Q or matrix matched water will be used to prepare the laboratory control samples. Triplicate laboratory control samples at a minimum of two different concentrations are to be performed with each extraction batch. The relative standard deviation of the pooled recoveries must be less than or equal to 20% and the average recovery must be 80-120%. Low lab control spikes will be prepared at concentrations approximately five to ten times higher than the targeted LOQ and high laboratory control spikes will be prepared at concentrations near the mid-point of the calibration curve.
For each analytical batch of samples, solvent and method blanks will be analyzed. Method blanks must be done with each extraction batch. A range of three to seven method blanks must be prepared interspersed throughout the extraction batch and analyzed throughout the analytical sequence. The mean area count for each analyte in the method blanks must be less than 50% of the area count of the LOQ standard. If the mean area counts of the method blanks exceed 50% of the LOQ standard, then the LOQ must be raised to the first standard level in thecurve that meets criteria. Alternatively, the method blanks could be evaluated statistically to determine outliers or technical justification toeliminate a blank may be made when determining the LOQ. The criteria are then applied again to evaluate method blank compliance. If any method blanks are removed from the LOQ determination,, document in the report or the raw data as appropriate.
10 . D a t a Q u a l it y O b j e c t iv e s
Method performance criteria will be demonstrated for; each analytical batch in accordance with ETS-8-154. The appropriate laboratory control samples prepared with each set of samples should verify the method's accuracy is 100% 20%, and the method's precision is within 20% relative standard deviation.

Averages and standard deviations will be calculated. Additional calculations are provided in ETS-8-43.

1 Scope and Application
The method describes the analysis of fluorochemicals (typically perfluoronated adds, alcohols, amides, and sulfonates) using HPLC-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry.
Specific analytes, ions (parent and daughter) matrices, solvents, solutions, quality controls, internal
standards(s), and other parameters w ill be defined in the protocol or the sample preparation
w o rksh e e t^).
,
Applicable Compounds: EJectrospray ionizable fluorochemicals.
Matrices: To include, but not limited to, water, aqueous solutions, organic solvents, soils, tissues, and serum. The matrix will be defined b the ^srotocbl or sample preparation worksheets).
2 Method Summ ary
< v- \
This method describes the analysis of electropray ioriizable fluorochemicals using HPLC-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-ES/M^/MS). The analysis is performed by following the mass selection of a single ion characteristic of a particular fluorochemical, such as the perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) anion, m /z - 499 or perfluorooctanoate (PFOA), m/z = 413. A compound specific product ion is created through high-energy collisions, and the creation of the product Ion is quantitatively monitored.
For example, the transition from 499 > 99 (characteristic o f FSQ r) is monitored for PFOS and the 413 >119 (characteristic of C2F5-) transition is monitored for PFOA. This selectivity afforded by this technique reduces background interferences and enhances analytical sensitivity.
3 Definitions
3.1 Atm ospheric Pressure Ionization (API):
Commercially available LC/MS and LC/MS/MS systems allow for various methods o f ionization by utilizing a variety of sources, probes, and interfaces. These include but are not limited to: Electrospray Ionization (ESI), Atmospheric Pressure chemical Ionization (APcI). The ionization in these processes occurs at atmospheric pressure (i.e., not under a vacuum).
3.2 Electrospray Ionization (ES, ESI):
A method of ionization performed at atmospheric pressure, whereby ions in solution are transferred to the gas phase via tiny charged droplets. These droplets are produced by the application of a strong electrical field. Typically, this is for the analysis of fluorochemicals.
3.3 Mass Spectrom eter (MS) or Tandem Mass Spectrom eter (MS/MS):
Single mass spectrometer QMS) or Tandem mass spectrometers (MS/MS) systems are equipped with quadrupofe mass selective detectors. Ions are selectively discriminated by mass to charge ratio (m/z) and subsequently detected. A single MS may be employed for ion detection or tandem MS (MS/MS) may be employed to obtain specific fragmentation information.

9.1 Blanks
9.1.1 Solvent Blank
Solvent blanks are not extracted. They are.analyzed with each sample set to determine contamination or carryover. The solvent used should* in some approximation, represent the solvent used for the standard curve and/or the sample extracts. Solvent blank area counts should be less than 50% o f the area count of the lowest calibration standard.
Solvent blanks should be analyzed prior to each calibration curve, if carryover is a problem consecutive solvent blanks may be necessary. Solvent blank area counts should be less than 50% o f the area count o f the lowest calibration standard prior to the injection o f unknown samples.
9.1.2 Method Blank
Method blanks are extracted and analyzed with each group of samples, consisting of water or another commercially available solvent:
The protocol or project lead will define the number and frequency o f these samples. Method blanks should have area counts less than 50% o f the area count of the lowest calibration standard.
9.1.3 Matrix Blank
Matrix blanks are extracted and analyzed with each group of samples. These groups would include tissue and sera samples. Endogenous levels o f target analytes contained in the sample matrix are evaluated by taking an aliquot o f blank (unexposed) matrix and carrying it through the entire extraction process alongside the samples.
The protocol or project lead will define the number and frequency o f these samples. Matrix blanks should have area counts less than 50% of the area count of the lowest calibration standard. If this is not possible in cases where there are detectable levels of endogenous target analyte present in the matrix, then the endogenous levels should be taken into account when evaluating sample data and discussed in the raw data.
9.2 Surrogate
A surrogate standard may be used for quality control. The surrogate is used to qualitatively evaluate the entire analytical procedure including sample preparation and analysis. The surrogate should be spiked at the beginning of the sample preparation and should tell within the low to mid-range o f the calibration curve.
9.3 Post-Extraction Control Sample
Post-extraction control samples may be prepared for each set o f extracted samples (if applicable to the study) and analyzed to determine extraction stability. The samples are prepared by adding additional target analyte to the final extract, and after any dilution.
Post-extraction control sample duplicates may be prepared periodically to measure the precision associated with the analysis. These samples should be analyzed in the same run as the unsplked sample.
Post-extraction control sample concentrations should fall in the mid-range of tie initial calibration curve or should be prepared at 1.5-5 times the endogenous concentration of the analyte. Spike concentrations should fall in the law-range of the Initial calibration curve if extremely low levels are expected

10 Calibration and Standardization
10.1 Instrum ent Calibration
Analyze the standard curves prior to each set of samples. The standard curve may be plotted by linear regression (y = mx + b) or quadratic tit (y * ax2+ b x + C); weighted 1/x or unweighted, using MassLynxTM or other suitable software. The calibration curves may include but should not be forced through zero. The mathematical method used to calculate the calibration curve should be applied consistently throughout a study. Any change should be thoroughly documented in the raw data.
If the calibration curve does not meet adceptanoe criteria perform routine maintenance or prepare a new standard curve (if necessary>and reanalyze:'
For purposes of accuracy when quantitating low levels o f analyte, it may be necessary to use the low end of the calibration curve rather than the full range. Example: when attempting to quantitate approximately 10 ppb o f analyte, generate a calibration curve consisting o f the standards from 5 ppb to 100 ppb rather than the full range of the curve (5 ppb to 1000 ppb). This w ill reduce inaccuracy attributed to linear regression weighting o f high concentration standards.
High and/or low points may be excluded from the calibration curves to provide a better fit over the linear range appropriate to the data or because they dkl notm eet the predeterm ined acceptance criteria. Low-level curve points should also be excluded if their area counts are not at least twice that o f the method blanks. Any curve point may be rejected due to a bad injection or if a possible prep error can be deduced by the raw data. Justification for exclusion of calibration curve points will be noted In the raw data.
'. i 'U! J - i A minimum o f 6 points will be used to constructthe calibration curve.
10.2 Internal Standard
,,
An internal standard (IS) may be used to quantify the target analytes by establishing a relationship between the ratio o f analyte response fo is response a id a known concentration of the analyte of interest. The IS should be spiked at aparnount that w il foil within the mid-range of the calibration curve. The IS should be added after tlte,^(tiactfon process and before analysis
10.3 Continuing Calibration Vrification (CCV)
Continuing calibration verifications (CCV) are analyzed to verify the continued accuracy o f the
calibration curve.
i; . i i '
-
Analyze a mid-range calibration stantiard(at a'minimum) after every tenth sample, not including solvent
blanks, with a minimum of one per sarfipteset. Calibration verification injections must be within 25% to be considered acceptable. The calibration curve and the last passing CCV will then bracket acceptable samples. Multiple CCV levels may be used. The CCVs used should be documented in th e . raw data
11 Procedures
For instrument set-up, refer to th manual that pertains to the specific instrum ent Actual parameters w ill be recorded on the instrument printouts/ The procedures that follow are from Micromass9 instruments using MassLynxTM. Conditions may be adjusted, provided adequate QC is used.

If data is to be reported when performance criteria have not been met, the data must be footnoted on tables and discussed in the text of the report.
13.1 System Suitability
A minimum of three system suitability samples m il be injected at the beginning o f each analytical run. Typically these samples are run prior to the calibration durve. The system suitability injections must have area counts with an RSD of 5% and a retention time RSD o f s2%.
13.2 Q uantitation
The coefficient o f determination (r2) value for the calibration curve must be greater than or equal to 0.990. Each point in the curve must be within 25% of the theoretical concentration with the exception of the LLOQ, which may be within 30%.
13.3 Lower Lim it of Q uantitation
The Lower Limit o f Quantitation (LLOQ) is analyte and matrix specific. For most analytes, the LLOQ concentration is selected as the lowest acceptable non-zero standard in the calibration curve. Solvent, matrix and method blank area counts must be < % that o f the lowest standard used in the calibration curve. This is not always possible for matrix blanks, where there may be detectable levels of target analytes. The endogenous levels, if any should be taken into account when evaluating sample data and discussed in the raw data.

1 Scope and Application
This method describes the extraction o f target analytes from water matrices using solid phase
extraction (SPE) followed by separation, identification, and quantitation using high-performance
liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (HPIC/M S) or tandem mass spectrometry
(HPLC/MS/MS). This method has been validated for periluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS),
perfluorooctane sulfonytamide (FOSA), and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) in groundwater, surface
water, and drinking water samptes. This method is considered a perform ance-based method
and may be applied to the determination of other perfluorinated adds, alcohols, amides, and
sulfonates in similar matrices, as long as the defined QC elements are satisfied and with the
understanding that the method Is not validated for compounds outside the scope of the original
protocol.
...... ,
This method is based in part on the 3M Environmental Laboratory report E01-0454, ` Method o f Analysis for the Determination of Pedluofooctpne sulfonate (PFOS), Perfluorooctane sulfonytamide (PFOSA), and Perfluorooctanoate (PQAA) in Water", as developed and validated by Exygen Research (formerly Centre Ang^tical Laboratories, Inc.). This method was originally validated using a 40 mL sample aliquot for extraction and a final elution volume o f 5 mL. These volumes may be changed on a per prqject basis to meet the data quality objectives set forth by the prqject lead. Acceptable recoveries o f laboratory quality control samples w ill demonstrate that the extraction and elution volumes do not impact the validity of the method.
Sample collection is n o t covered under this analytical procedure.
2 Method Sum m ary
Water samples are collected from a site o f interest and shipped to the analytical facility. Perfluorinated acids, alcohols, amides, and sulfonates are extracted from aliquots of the water samples using solid phase extraction (SPE) cartridges. The compounds are eluted from the SPE cartridge, using methanol. Separation, identification, and measurement are accomplished by high-performance liquid chromatography/ tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS/MS) analysis, high-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS) may be used if the defined QC elements are satisfied and meets the data quality objectives outlined in the general project outline for the given project.
The concentration of each identified component is measured by comparing the MS response of the quantitation ion (or summed total o f multiple ions) produced by that compound to the MS response o f the quantitation ion (or summed total o f multiple ions) produced by the same compound in an extracted calibration standard (external standard).

3.4 Laboratory Duplicate Sample (LDS)
A laboratory duplkatq,sample is a separate aliquot o f a sample, taken in the analytical laboratory that is extracted ancl analyzed Separately with identical procedures. Analysis of LDSs compared to that of the first aliquot give a measure o f the precision associated with laboratory procedures, but not with sample collection, preservation, or storage procedures.
3.5 Field Blank (FB)/Trip Blank
ASTM Type I water, HPLC grade reagent water, or other suitable water, is placed in a sample container in the laboratory and treated as a sample in all respects, inducing exposure to sampling site conditions, storage, preservation and all analytical procedures. The purpose of the F B isto determine if test substances or other interferences are present in the field environment.' This sample is also'refenred to as a Trip Blank.
3.6 Field Duplicate Sam ple (FDS)
A sample collected in duplicate at the same time from the same location as the sample. The FDS is placed under identical drcumstances and treated exactly the same throughout field and laboratory procedures. Analysis o f the FDS compared to that o f the first sample gives a measure of the predsion assodated with sample collection, preservation and storage, as well as with laboratory procedures.
3.7 Field M atrix Spike (FMS)
A sample to which known quantities of th target analytes are added to the sample bottle in the field or in the laboratory before the bottles are sent to the field. A known, spedfic volume o f sample must be added to the sample container without rinsing. This may be accomplished by making a "fill to this level" line on the outside o f the sample container. The FMS should be spiked at approximately 0.5-10 times the expected analyte concentration in the sample. If the expected range of analyte concentrations is unknown, multiple spikes at varying levels may be prepared to increase the likelihood that a spike at pn appropriate level is made. Typically a low and a high spike re prepared for each sampling location. The FMS is analyzed to ascertain if matrix effects or sample holding time contributes bias to the analytical results.
3.8 Field Spike Control Sample (FSCS)/Trip Blank M atrix Spike
An aliquot o f ASTM Type I water (HPLC grad reagent water or other suitable water may used) to which known quantities of foe target analytes are added in the field at foe time of sample collection (at an appropriate concentration to be determined by foe project lead) or in the laboratory prior to foe shipment o f the collection bottles. The FSCS is extracted and analyzed exactly like a sample to determine whether a loss of analyte could be attributed to holding time, sample storage and/or shipment issues. A lo w and high FSCS may be appropriate when expected sample concentrations are not known. This sample may also be referred to as Trip Blank Matrix Spfte.
3.9 Laboratory Control Sample (LCS)
An aliquot o f ASTM Type I water (HPLC grade reagent water or other suitable water may used) to which known quantities o f the target analytes are added in foe laboratory at foe time o f sample extraction. At least two levels are included, one generally at the low end o f foe calibration curve

8 Sam ple Collection Bottfe Preparation
For most projects, sample collection bottles are prepared by 3M Environmental Laboratory personnel before they are shipped to foe collection site. Typically, four separate collection bottles are associated with a angle colection site; sample, field duplicate sample, low field matrix spike, and high field matrix spike. Depending oh the scope o f the project, additional replicates of the field sample and field matrix spikes may be added. Also, it is not uncommon for additional mid level field matrix spikes to pe collected if the expected sample concentrations are truly unknown or could span a large concentration range.
Low-density polyethylene (LOPE) wide-mouth Nalgene bottles are used for the sample collection containers. (Volumes of the bottles may vary depending on how much sample is required to meet

data quality objectives.) The interiors o f the Nalgene bottles may be rinsed multiple times with acetone and methanol and allowed to dry before adding the appropriate spikes. Note: rinsing o f the bottles is optional and is not required. The project lead will communicate what the final collection volume w ill be and a corresponding "fill to here' line is drawn on the exterior of the bottle using a permanent marker. Typically, placement o f the `fjtl to here' line is done by using a marker template. Alternatively, bottles with pre-marked volume indicators may be purchased.
For the sample bottles designated for matrix spikes, an appropriate volume o f matrix spiking solution is added to the empty bottle. The volume o f spike solution added should produce the desired final concentration of target analytes once the bottle is filled with sample to the 'fill to here line*. (If a surrogate is included for the project, the surrogate compound should also be added to the matrix spikes). The matrix spiking solution should be prepared in a suitable solvent and contains all of the target (and surrogate if applicable) analytes; however, multiple spike solutions m ay be used if an appropriate mixed component standard is not available. The matrix spiking solution is often the same as the working standards used to create the calibration standards. An example of a bottle spike is given below.
"Fill to here' volume = 450 m l (A 500 mL Nalgene bottle is used)
Desired Field Spike Concentration = 0.1 ng/mL
45pL of a 1 pg/mL spiking solution (containing the target analytes) is added to the bottle and the bottle cap promptly sealed
If analysis o f a surrogate analyte Is included in the project objectives, the preparatory analyst should also add an appropriate volume of surrogate standard solution to all the bottles designated as samples or field duplicate samples.
All bottles should be clearly labeled to indicate its intended use as a sample/fiekf sample duplicate, low spike, or high spike. If each location has different designated spike levels, toe label should also clearly indicate the sample location designation. Generally, a set o f bottles for a given collection site are then grouped together in plastic bags for Organizational purposes.
For each collection event, at least one set of top blank and top blank matrix spikes are prepared. The number o f top blank sets required for a given project will be communicated by the project lead. For the top blank, the surrogate spike is added to the bottle (if included) and then ASTM Type I water (HPLC grade reagent water or other suitable water may used) is added to toe "fill to here' line. The bottle cap is replaced and tape may be placed around the outer edge o f the cap. Trip blank matrix spikes are prepared by adding the appropriate volume of matrix spiking solution, filling the bottle to the desired volume with the appropriate water and replacing and sealing toe cap.
The preparatory analyst should document bottle preparation in a Note to File or on a sample preparation worksheet The Note to File should induce the following information: date prepared, total number o f bottles prepared, number o f sample sites, the standard identification numbers and spike volumes used to prepare spiked bottles, toe "till to here' volume, and any other pertinent information needed for reconsiructibility of the data. The Note to File w ill be included in toe final data package for the project.

Depending on toe scope o fth e projct, it or Seleed samples m aybe extracted at least in duplicate, and In triplicate if cfifficulties were encountered in the sampling and/or holding conditions o f the samples. If field sample repdcatessre collected, duplicate and triplicate extractions o f an individual sample may notJ required: rThereiativepercent difference (RPD) o f duplicate samples or relative stendate deviation (RSD)should beiess than 20%.for toe precision o f sample preparation and analysis to be.consktetad in control. Replicate samples not meeting the 20% method criteria w ill be reviewed and evaluated on a case by case basis.
9.4 Laboratory M atrix Spikes (LMSs)
LMSs are performed if FMSs have previously been performed for toe sample matrix. Alternatively, LMSs are performed for a sample matrix if the FMS levels were not appropriate for determining spike recoveries relative to endogenous levels. Generaly, each sample location represents a different sample and sample matrix. LMSs are prepared for each sample and analyzed to determine the matrix effect on spike recovery efficiency of each target analyte. Lab matrix spike recoveries should fall within 30% o f expected values.
LMS concentrations should be prepared at approximately 0.5-10 times the endogenous concentration or approximately 4-10 times the LOQ concentration o f each analyte.

9.5 Laboratory Control Spike (LCS)
Lab control spikes are prepared for each extraction batch to determine method accuracy and precision. LCSs should be prepared at a minimum o f two levels and in triplicate. Low lab control spikes should be prepared at a concentration in the range of approximately four to ten times higher than die targeted LOQ and the high lab control spikes should be prepared at a , concentration near the mid-point of the calibration curve. For each target analyte, the percent relative standard deviation (method precision) o f the pooled control spikes must be less than or equal to 20% and the average recovery (method accuracy) must be 80-120% Sample data for target analytes outside of the laboratory control spike acceptance criteria are not reportable'
9.6 Field Matrix Spikes (FMSs)
FMSs are prepared for each sample and analyzed to determine the matrix effect and sample holding time on spike recovery efficiency of each target analyte. Generally, each sample location represents a different sample and sample matrix.
FMS samples are a sample to which known quantities of the target analytes are added to the sample bottle in the field or in the laboratory before the bottles are sent to the field. Typically a low and a high FMS are prepared for each sampling location. The ratio o f endogenous analyte to field spike concentration that is appropriate to assess accuracy Is defined as approximately 0.5 to 10 times the expected sample concentration;''For example, if the endogenous level of analyte in the sample is expected to be 1.0 ng/mL, the appropriate range for FMS used to assess accuracy of results would be approximately 0.5 ng/mL to 10 ng/mL. For samples that are expected to have endogenous analytes present at or below foe targeted LOQ, the appropriate range for FMS would be approximately 4 to 10 times foe LOQ concentration. For example, if the analyte LOQ is 0.025 ng/m L the appropriate range for low level FMS would be 0.1 ng/mL to 0.25 ng/mL. If foe expected range o f analyte concentrations is unknown, multiple spikes at varying levels may be prepared to increase the likelihood that a spike at an appropriate level is made.
Field matrix spike method acceptance criteria are recoveries within 30% o f the expected value. If FMS recovery is outside of 30% o f the expected value o f could not be assessed because the FMS was spiked at an inappropriate leybl, foe sample result is reported as NR, where NR is defined as "Not Reportable*. For dat reportabiirty, a sample may be re-extracted and re analyzed o r an alternate analytical method may be applied to the sample. Alternatively, resampling and reanalysis o f a new sample may be completed. If re-extraction, resampling, and re-analysis fail to meet the FMS acceptance criteria, the sample result w it be reported as ` NR* (not reported due to noncompliant QC results).
Exceptions to the 30% FMS acceptance criteria for data reportability are as follows:
1. ) If FMS recovery could not be assessed because FMS's ware at an inappropriate level, then Laboratory Matrix Spikes (LMS) may be substituted. If LMS recoveries are within 30% the data are reportable but flagged as not meeting the FMS method acceptance criteria.
2. ) If multiple FMS's were prepared on a sample and foe dosest FMS level to foe reported sample meets foe 30% acceptance criteria but additional FMS's are outside the 30% acceptance range, foe data are reportable but flagged with an expanded uncertainty and as not meeting FMS method acceptance criteria.
3. ) If tire FMS recoveries are outside o f the 30% acceptance range but at least 20 acceptable historical reportable FMS sample results are available, the data may be reported but flagged with an expanded uncertainty and as not meeting FMS criteria.

Multiple transitions for monitoring the analytes is an option as summing multiple transitions may provide quantitation of isomers that more closely matches NMR data and may have the added benefit of increased analyte signal. The use of one daughter ion is acceptable if method sensitivity is achieved, provided that retention tim e criteria are met to assure adequate specificity. VWiile the daughter ions may be chosen at the discretion of the analyst, mass transition 99 is suggested for PFOS. Quantitation may be performed using the total ion chromatogram (TIC) for
a given analyte. For example, the PFOA TIC would sum ail three of the monitored transitions. Use of the suggested primary ion is recommended. Retention times may vary slightly, on a dayto-day basis, dependng on the batch of mobile phase and the gradient, column, guard ooiumrKs) used etc. Drift in retention times is acceptable within an analytical run, as long as the drift
continues through the entire analysis and the standards are interspersed throughout the analytical
run.

10.3 Calibration Curve
Analyze the standard curve prior to each set o f samples. The validated method specifies mat the standard curve should be plotted ustqg a linsarfit, weighted 1/x or unweighted. However, the standard curve may also be plotted by ,quadratic fit (y * ax* + bx + c), weighted 1/x or unweighted, using suitable software. The calibration citfves may include but should not be forced through zero. The mathematical method used k /ta lc u la te the calibration curve should be applied consistently throughout a study. Any chariige should be thoroughly documented in the raw data.
If the calibration curve does not meet acceptance criteria, perform routine maintenance or prepare a new standard curve (if necessary) and reanalyze.
For purposes o f accuracy when quantitating low levels o f analyte, it may be necessary to use the low end o f the calibration curve rather than the full range. For example, when attempting to quantitate approximately 0.05 ng/mL of analyte, generate a calibration curve consisting o f the standards from 0.025 ng/mL to 10.0 ng/mL rather than the full range of the curve (0.025 ng/mL to 25.00 ng/mL). This w ill reduce inaccuracy attributed to linear regression weighting of high concentration standards.
High and/or low points may be excluded from the calibration curves to provide a better fit over the range appropriate to the data or because they did not meet the pre-determined acceptance criteria. Low-level curve points should also be excluded if their area counts are not at least twice that of the method and/or solvent blanks. Any curve point may be rejected due to a bad injection

or failing to meet accuracy requirements o f 25% (and 30% for the LLOQ). Justification for exclusion o f calibration curve points will be noted in the raw data. A minimum o f 6 points will be used to construct the calibration curve. No more than 25% of the total extracted calibration standards should be excluded. This does not pertain to low and high levels that may needto be disabled to achieve an accurate curve in the concentration range of the samples, rather, this is intended to apply to mid curve points only.
10.4 Continuing Calibration Verification (CCV)
Continuing calbration verifications (CCV) are analyzed to verify the accuracy of the calibration curve. Analyze a mid-range calibration standard, one o f the same standards used to construct the calibration curve, at a minimum after every tenth sample, not including solvent blanks, with a minimum of one per sample set. Calibration verification injections must be within 25% to be considered acceptable. The calibration curve and the last passing CCV will then bracket, acceptable samples. Multiple CCV levels may be used.
10.5 System Suitability
A minimum o f three system suitability samples will be injected at the beginning o f each analytical run, prior to the analysis o f the calibration curve; Typically these samples are at a concentration riar the mid-level of the calibration curve are repeated injections from one autosampler vial. The system suitablity injections must have area counts with an RSD o f 5% and a retention time RSD o f 2% to be compliant
11 Procedures
11.1 Extraction Scheme
The following steps represent a typ ica l extraction scheme. Sample extraction volumes and final elution volumes may be adjusted to meet data quality objectives.
Allow samples to equilibrate to room temperature. Thoroughly mix samples by gently inverting the sample bottle.
Measure a 40mL representative aliquot o f the well-mixed sample into a 50mL polypropylene centrifuge tubes (Spike the lab matrix spites as required*, replace lid and mix well). Alternate volumes may be used depending on the scope o f the project. Use a consistent sample volume for all extractions and document on the sample prep sheet
Add 40pL o f 250 mg/mL sodium thiosulfate solution to 40mL of sample. Adjust the amount of sodium thiosulfate solution added if alternate sample volumes are used. Thoroughly mix sample.
Note: * Samples may need to be prescreened to determine an appropriate matrix spike level (typicaly approximately 0.5 to 10 times the sample concentration). Alternatively the samples could be spiked at more than one level, allowing for the inappropriate spike level to be eliminated.
Condition the C18 SPE cartridges (1g, 6mL) by passing approximately 10mL methanol (at a minimum) followed by approximately 50mL (at a minimum) ASTM Type I water. Do not let column run dry. If column does run dry, recondition. SPE cartridges cannot be over conditioned.
Load the analytical sample onto the C18 SPE cartridge. Once the entire sample has loaded onto the cartridge, isolate the cartridge from the vacuum and wait until all samples on the vacuum manifold have been loaded. Discard eluate. Open manifold valves and pull a vacuum on the SPE cartridges for approximately 3 minutes to remove residual water from the SPE cartridge.
Elute with exactly 5 mL of 100% methanol. Collect eluate into graduated 15mL polypropylene centrifuge tubes. This is the target elution fraction (final volume approximately 4.5 mL as not all of the solvent w ill leave the SPE column. This will not affect the calculations in any way since the

Any method performance parameters that are not achieved m is t be considered in th evaluation of the data. Nonconformance to any specified parameters must be described and discussed if the project lead chooses to report the data.
If criteria listed in this method performance section are not met, maintenance may be performed on the system and samples reanalyzed, or other actions taken as determined by the analyst/project lead. Document all actions in the raw data.
If data are to be reported when performance criteria have not been met, the data must be footnoted on tables and discussed in the text o f the report.
13.1 System Suitability
A minimum o f three system suitability samples w ill be injected at the beginning o f each analytical run. These samples are run prior to the calibration curve..The system suitability injections must have area counts with an RSD of 5% and a retention time RSD o f 2% to be compliant.
13.2 Q uantitation
C alibration C urve: Th coefficient of determination (r2) value for the calibration curve must be greater than or equal to 0.990. Each point in the curve must be within 25% o f the theoretical concentration with the exception o f the LLOQ, which may be within 30%.

13.3 Sensitivity
Solvent Blanks and M ethod B lanks: Solvent and method blank area counts must be < 50% that of the lowest standard used in the calibration'curV. Solvent blanks analyzed a ft ' high level samples or calibration standards may have area counts greater than 50% ofthe lowest standard from instrument carryover as long as subsequent solvent blanks analyzed before the next sample/QC sample demonstrate that foe instrument carryover is decreasing back to expected levels.
Lim its o f Q uantitation (LOQ): The lower LOQ (LLOQ) is foe lowest non-zero active standard in the calibration curve; the peak area of the LLOQ must be a t least 2X that of the method blank(s). By definition, the measured vaiue of the LLOQ must be within 30% of foe theoretical value.
13.4 Accuracy
CCV Perform ance: Calibration verification injections must be within 25% to be considered acceptable. The calibration curve and foe last paissirig CCV will then bracket acceptable samples.

13.6 A nalytical Method. Uncertainty / Data Acceptability
Analytical method uncertainty d a y be defined and reported in one o f two ways. The first approach uses historical LCS data that is control charted and is used to evaluate method ' accuracy and precision, based on procedures defined in ETS-12r012. in ETS-12-012, a detailed estimation of uncertainty measurements was performed on ETS-8-231.2, ` Solid Phase Extraction and Analysis o f Perfluorinated Adds, Alcohol, Amides, Sulfonates and other Fluorinated Compounds by High Performance Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry*. The procedure outlined in this m thodutilizs the same preparation and analysis steps as'those identified in ETS-B-2312. In that evaluation it wasdeterm iried mat the use of control charts was an acceptable approach to determining analytical method uncertainty. At least twenty data points are required when using this method for determining analytical uncertainty. Th method uncertainty is defined as 2x the standard deviation o f the percent recoveries of the pooled lab control spikes.. While an LCS data points are control chartd, only the most recent fifty data points are used for determining the method uncertainty.
When less than twenty LCS data points have been generated for a given analyte, the batch LCS and FMS QC determine the data acceptability. If FMSs meet the 30% recovery criteria at a level appropriate to the endogenous level, and the LCS meet the 20% recovery criteria, then the uncertainty o f the data is deemed accurate to within 10020%. If FMS do not meet the 30% recovery criteria, and historical FMS data does not exist, the analytical uncertainty is evaluated on a case-by-case basis and a discussion included in the final analytical report.

1 Scopo and Application
This method is to be used to quantify Perfludrobutanoic Add (PFBA), Perfluoropentanoic Add (PFPeA),
Perfluorohexanoic A dd (PFHA), Perfluoroheptanoic A dd (PFHpA), PerfluoroqctanoicAdd (PFOA),
Perfluorononanoic A dd (PFNA), Perfluorodecanoic Acid (PFDA), Perfluoroundecanoic Add (PFUnA),
Peffluorododecandc A dd (PFDoA), Perfluorobutanesuifonate (PFBS), Perfluorohexanesulfonate (PFHS),
and Perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) by High Performance Liquid Chromatography coupled to a tandem
Mass SpectrometriC Detector (LC/MS/MS) in clean water samples. W ater samples containing heavy
particulate may require preparation by an alternate method such as ETS-8-154 "Determination of
Perfluorinated Adds, Alcohols, Amides, and Sulfonates In W ater By Solid Phase Extraction and High
Perteimarxte U qdd avonrtetei^aphy/MisS>S^ectrometry*.
.
This method Is considered a perform ance-based method. Data Is considered acceptable as long as the
defined QC elements are satisfied.
' , v '
Sample collection Is not covered under this analytical procedure.
2 Method Summ ary
____ _____
Clean aqueous samples are analyzed by direct injection using LC/MS/MS. Samples containing heavy particulate may not be suitable for analysis by this method. Samples containing suspended particulate should be centrifuge prior to removing a sample aliquot, or filtered.
This is a performance-based method. Method accuracy is determined for each sample set using multiple laboratory control spikes at multiple concentrations. This method also requires that the precision and accuracy for each sample be determined using field matrix spikes to verify that the method is applicable to each sample matrix. Sample results for spikes outside o f 70% to 130%, may be flagged as such (with expanded accuracy statements), or will not be reported due to non-compliant quality control samples.
Fortification levels for Held matrix spikes and for laboratory matrix spikes should be at least 50% of the endogenous level and less than 10 times the endogenous level to be used to determine the statement of accuracy for analytical results.
3 Definitions
3.1 Calibration Standard
A solution prepared by spiking a known volume o f the Working Standard (WS) into a predetermined amount o f ASTM Type I, HPLC grade water, or other suitable water, and analyzed according to this method. Calibration standards are used to calibrate the instrument response with respect to analyte concentration.
3.2 Laboratory Duplicate Sam ple (LDS, or Lab Dup)
A laboratory duplicate sample is a separate aliquot of a sample taken in the analytical laboratory that is analyzed separately with identical procedures. Analysis o f LDSs compared to that o f the first aliquot give a measure o f the precision associated with laboratory procedures, but not with sample collection, preservation, or storage procedures.
3.3 Field Blank (FB)/Trip Blank
ASTM Type I, HPLC grade water, or other suitable water, placed in a sample container in the laboratory and treated as a sample in alt respects, including exposure to sampling site conditions, storage, preservation and all analytical procedures. The purpose o f the FB is to determine if test substances or other interferences are present in the field environment. This sample is also referred to as a Trip Blank.

3.4 Field Duplicate Sam ple (FDS, Field Dup)
A sample collected In duplicate at the same time from the same location as the sample. The FDS is handed under identical circumstances and treated exactly the same throughout field and laboratory procedures. Analysis of the FDS compared to that of the first sample gives a measure of the precision associated with sample collection, preservation and storage, as well as with laboratory procedures.
3.5 Field Matrix Spike (FMS)
A sample to which known quantities o f the target analytes are added to the sample bottle in die laboratory before the bottles are sent to die field for collection of aqueous samples. A known, specific volume o f sample must be added to the sample container without rinsing. This may be accomplished by making a Till to this level' line on the outside of the sample container. The FMS should be spited between approximately 50% and 10 times the expected analyte concentration in the sample, if the expected range o f analyte concentrations is unknown, multiple Spikes at varying levels may be prepared to increase the likelihood that a spike at an appropriate level is made. The FMS is analyzed to ascertain if any matrix effects, interferences, or stability issues may complicate the interpretation of the sample analysis.
3.6 Trip Blank Spike (Field Spike Control Sample, FSCS)
An a iq u o to f ASTM Type I, HPLC grade water, o r other suitable water, to which known quantities of the target analytes are added in the laboratory prior to the shipment o f the collection bottles. The FSCS is extracted and analyzed exactly like a study sample to help determine if the method is in control and whether a loss o f analyte could be attributed to holding time, sample storage and/or shipment issues. A low and high FSCS are appropriate when expected sample concentrations are not known or may vary. At least one separate, un-spiked sample must be taken at the same time and place as each FMS.
3.7 Laboratory Control Sam ple (LCS)
.
An aliquot of control matrix to which known quantities of the target analytes are added in the.laboratory at the time of sample extraction. At least two levels are included, one generally at the low end o f ttie calibration curve and one near the mid to upper range of the curve. The LCSs are extracted and analyzed exactly like a laboratory sample to determine whether the method is in control. LCSs should be prepared each day samples are extracted.
3.8 Laboratory Matrix Spike (LMS)
A laboratory matrix spite is an aliquot o f a sample to which known quantities o f target analytes are added in the laboratory. The LMS is analyzed exactly like a laboratory sample to determine whether the sample matrix contributes bias to the analytical results. The endogenous concentrations o f the analytes in the sample matrix must be determined in a separate aliquot and the measured values in the LMS corrected for these concentrations. LMSs are optional for analysis ofaqueous sampies.
3.9 Laboratory Sample
A portion or aliquot o f a sample received from the field tor testing.
3.10 Lim it o f Q uantitation (LOQ)
The lower limit o f quantitation (LLOQ) for a dataset is ttie lowest concentration that can be reliably quantitated within the specified limits o f precision and accuracy during routine operating conditions. To simplify date reporting, the LLOQ is generally selected as the lowest non-zero standard in the calibration curve that meets method criteria. Sample LLOQs are matrix-dependent.
The upper lim it o f quantitation (ULOQ) for a dataset is the highest concentration that can be reliably quantitated within the specified limits of precision and accuracy during routine operating conditions. The highest standard in the calibration curve that meets method criteria is defined as the ULOQ.

8.1 W ater Sam ple Preparation
This method is applicable to dean water samples. Samples containing heavy particulate may not be suitable for analysis by this method. Samples containing Suspended particulate should be centrifuge prior to removing a sample aliquot, or Altered.
Thoroughly mix sample before removing1analiquot and pladng in a labeled plastic autovial. Plastic is preferred over the use of gfassautovials, to prevent the possibly o f fluorochemical sticking to the glass.
Dilute sample, if necessary, w ith ASTM Type I, HPLC water, or other suitable water.
Prepare method QC samples and multiple method blanks and aliquot into labeled plastic autovials.
Prepare at least five method blanks.
9 Sample Analysis - LC/MS/MS .
Analyze the standard curve prior to each set o f samples. The standard curve may be plotted using a linear fit, weighted 1/x or unweighted, or by quadratic fit (y = ax2+ bx c), weighted 1/x or unweighted, using suitable software. The calibration curves may indude but should not be forced through zero. The mathematical method used to calculate the caSbration curve should be applied consistently throughout a study. Any change should be thoroughly documented in the raw data.
High and/or low points may be exduded from the calibration curves to provide a better fit over the range appropriate to the date or because they did not meet the predeterm ined acceptance criteria. Low-level curve points should also be exduded if their area counts are not at least twice that of the method and/or solvent blanks. The coefficient of determination (t2) value for the calibration curve must be greater than o r equal to 0.990. Each point in the curve must be within 25% o f the theoretical concentration with the exception of the LLOQ, which may

be within 30%. Justification for exclusion o f calibration curve points will be noted in the raw data. A minimum o f 6 points w ill be used to construct the calibration curve. If the calibration curve does not meet acceptance criteria, perform routine maintenance 6r prepare a new standard curve (if necessary) and reanalyze.
Continuing calibration verifications (CCV) are analyzed to verify the accuracy o f the calibration curve. Analyze a mid-range calibration standard, one of the same standards usd to construct th calibration curve, at a minimum after every tenth sample, not Including solvent blanks, with a minimum o f one per sample set. Calibration verification injections must be within 25% to be considered acceptable. The calibration curve and the last passing CCV will then bracket acceptable samples. Multiple CCV levels may be used.
Samples containing analytes that are quantitated above the concentration o f the highest standard in the curve should be further diluted and reanalyzed.
10 Q uality Control
10.1 Data Q uality Objectives
This method and required quality control samples is designed to generate data accurate to 30% with a targeted LOQ of 0.025 ng/m L Any deviations from the quality control measures spelled out below will be documented in the raw data and footnoted in the final report.
10.2 Method Blanks
Method blanks must be prepared with each analysis batch. A t least five method blanks must be prepared. Method blanks may be injected multiple times, but no more than 3 injections should be removed from a single method blank. A t a minimum, method blanks are analyzed prior to instrument calibration, prior to the analysis of CCV samples, and at the end o f the analytical run.
The mean area count for each analyte in the method blanks must be less than 50% of the area count of the LOQ standard. The standard deviation of the area counts o f these method blanks should be calculated and reported. If the mean area counts o f the method blanks exceed 50% o f the LOQ standard, then the LOQ must be raised to the first standard level in the curve that meets Criteria, o r alternatively, the method blanks must be evaluated statistically to determine outliers, or technical justification to eliminate one or more results should be made. .
10.3 Sam ple Replicates
Samples duplicates are collected in the field. The relative percent difference, RPD, should be repotted. RPD results greater than 20% win be flagged in the report, but will not be excluded from reporting. The requirement for replicates excludes field blanks.
10.4 Surrogate Spikes
Surrogate spikes are not required but may be used on project specific requirements.
10.5 Lab Control Sample
Triplicate lab control spikes at a minimum of two different concentrations are to be prepared with each preparation batch. Low lab control spikes should be prepared at concentrations in the range of five to ten times higher than the targeted LOQ and high lab control spikes should be prepared at concentrations near the mid-point of the curve. The relative standard deviation o f the control spikes evaluated independently at each concentration level must be less than or equal to 20% and the average recovery must be 80-120%. If the above criteria are not met, the entire set o f samples should be re-injected or re-prepared as appropriate.

Sample results for spikes outside o f 70% to 130%, may be flagged as such (with expanded accuracy statements), or win not be reported due to non-compliant quality control samples. The targeted fortification leveteshould be at least 50% o f the endogenous level and less than 10 times the endogenous level to tie used w ithoutjustification,to determine the statement of accuracy for analytical results. The average of Hie sam pleand the Held duplicate should be used to calculate the recovery.
11 Data Analysis.and C alculations.
Use the following equation to calculate the amount o f analyte found (In ng/mL, based on peak area) using the standard cu n (linear regression parameters) generated by an appropriate software program:
(Peak Area - Intercept) ^ Analyte found (ng/mL)
Slope
DF = factor by which the final volume was diluted, if necessary.
For samples fortified with known amounts of analyte prior to extraction, use the following equation to calculate the percent recovery.
Total analyte found (ng/mL) - Average analyte found In sample (ng/mL) )c _Q Recovery
Analyte added (ng/mL)
12 Methpd Perform ance . , ,
,
_________
Any method performance param etersfoat are not achieved must be considered in the evaluation of the data. Nonconformance to any specified parameters must,be described and discussed if the Technical Manager (nonGLP study) or Study Director (GLP study) chooses to report the data.
If criteria listed in this method performance section are not met, maintenance may be performed on the system and samples reanalyzed, or other actions taken as appropriate. Document all actions in the raw data.
If data are to be reported when performance criteria have not been met, the data must be footnoted on tables and
discussed in the text o f the report. '
u
12.1 System Suitability
System Suitability standards are not a required component o f this method. If required by protocol or by foe technical manager, d minimum o f fore^ systenVsuitability samples are injected at'the beginning of each analytical run prior to foe calibration curve. Typically these samples are at a concentration near foe mid level o f foe calibration curve and are repeated injections from one autosampler vial. The system suitability injections must have area counts with an RSD of s 6% and a retention time RSD o f s2% to be compliant.
12.2 Quantitation
! .,'
C alibration C urve: The coefficient o f determination (r2) value for foe calibration curve must be greater than or equal to 0.990. Each point in the curve must be within 25% of foe theoretical concentration with the exception of the LLOQ, which may be within 30%.
CCV Perform ance: The calibration standards that are interspersed throughout foe analytical sequence are evaluated as continuing calibration verifications in addition to being part o f the calibration curve. The accuracy of each curve point must be within 25% o f foe theoretical value (within 30% for lowest curve point). Samples that are bracketed by CCVs not meeting these criteria must be reanalyzed.

D em onstration o f S p ecificity: Specificity is demonstrated by chromatographic retention time (within 4% of standard) and the mass spectral response o f unique ions.
12.3 Sensitivity
The targeted limit of quantitation for all analytes is 0.025 ng/mL. The LOQ for any specific analyte may vary depending on the evaluation of appropriate blanks and the accuracy of the low-level calibration curve points. Refer to Section 10 for additional details.
12.4 Accuracy
This method and required quality control samples are designed to generate data that are accurate to +1-20%. Section 10 contains additional information regarding the required accuracy o f laboratory control spikes, field matrix spikes and laboratory matrix spikes.
12.5 Precision
Samples should be collected in duplicate in the field. The relative percent difference, RPD, should be reported. RPD results greater than 20% will be flagged in the report, but w ll not be excluded from reporting. The requirement for replicates exdudes field blanks or rinse blanks.
Section 10 contains additional information regarding the required precision o f laboratory control spikes.
13 Pollution Prevention and W aste Management
Waste generated whan performing this method w ill be disposed of appropriately. The original samples will be archived at the 3M Environmental Laboratory in accordance with internal procedures.
14 Records
Each data package generated for a study must indude all supporting information for reconstruction o f the data. Information for the data package must include, but is not limited to the following items: study or projed number, sample and standard prep sheets/reoords, instrument run log (instalment batch records, instrument acquisition method, summary pages), instrument results files, chromatograms, calibration curves, and data calculations.

II. Description (attach extra pages as needed)
Method Requirements:
1. CCV recovery within 1 25% of true value (section 10.4). 2. IC S average recovery of 100% 20% . 3. FMS recoveries within 30% (section 9.6).
Actual procedure/process:
(1 ) Sequence g091222a - One of the eleven CCVs for PFOA had a recovery of 72.4% . (2 ) LCS of branched PFOS and PFBA both had an average recovery of 126%. (3 ) PFOS FMS LS recovery for location C0IL-GW -C1 was 66.9%
III. Actions Taken (such as amendment issued, SOP revision, etc.) Corrective Action ( Yes 0 No) Reference: Acceptability of the nonconforming work:
1) Eleven CCVs were analyzed during the course of the run with one CCV for PFOA recovering at 72.4% . Curve criteria, LCS criteria, and FMS recovery criteria were all met for PFOA. Samples bracketed by the CCV will be noted in the report.
2) The branched PFOS when quantitated against calibration curve point prepared from linear PFOS have been quantitating around 15-20% higher. The average recovery of 126% for both PFOS and PFBA were within the acceptance criteria of 30% for FMS samples.
3) The other two FM S samples for PFOS for location C O Il-G W -C I met method acceptance criteria with recoveries of 60.2% and 85.4% . Since the low spike was the most appropriate as compared to the sample concentration, the analytical uncertainty will be adjusted accordingly.
Actions: O Halting o f W ork C lient N otification W ork Recall W ithholding o f Report
