1. INTRODUCTION At the request of the Naval Research Laboratory, Washington, D.C., EA Engineering, Science, and Technology, Inc, performed a flow-through acute toxicity test on a sample of aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF), fire fighting agent. The product tested was AER-O-FOAM XL-3 which is manufactured by Chubb National Foam, Inc. The objective of these tests was to determine the 96-hour median lethal concentration (LC50) of the test material to Fundulus heteroclitus (mummichogs) using lethality as the endpoint.
US00000364
2 . METHODS AND MATERIALS
2 .1 SAMPLE DESCRIPTION
The test sample was delivered to EA by courier. Two liter bottles each containing Chubb National Foam's AER-0--FOAM XL--3 aqueous film--forming foam (AFFF) were shipped to EA, logged in, visually inspected against the Chain of Custody Records, and assigned an EA accession number (EA sample number (ATI-776). The foam concentrate sample was stored at room temperature (20C) when not in use.
2 .2 TEST ORGANISMS
Juvenile mummichogs, Fundulus heteroclitus, constituted the test organisms. The test organisms were 30-35 days old at test initiation. The fish were obtained from cultures maintained at Multi Aquaculture Systems, Inc., Amagansett, New York.
The lot of F. heteroclitus (Lot Number FU-005) was received on 18 September 1991. The fish were fed flaked food daily until used in testing. The mean acclimation temperature and salinity for Lot FU-005 were 20.1 0.5 and 22.2 0.7 ppt.
There was no mortality observed in this lot of fish during the acclimation period. The mean length and weight of Lot FU-005 organisms were 18.18 mm (1.57) and 0.12 g (0.03) respectively.
2 .3 DILUTION WATER
The water used for acclimation, holding, and for the flow-through studies was 20 ppt artificial seawater. Dry synthetic sea salts (Forty Fathoms, Marine Enterprises, Towson, Maryland) were added to dechlorinated tap water and allowed to age prior to use. A summary of the chemical characteristics of Forty Fathoms is presented in Table 1. The source of the makeup water was Baltimore municipal water supply, which upon entry
2
US00000365
into the laboratory was passed through a high capacity activated carbon dechlorination unit which removed chlorine and hexane soluble compounds.
2.4 TOXICITY TEST OPERATIONS AND PERFORMANCE
At 1500 on 25 September 1991, a 48-hour static acute rangefinding test was initiated to provide information for the selection of test concentrations in the flow-through test. The concentration series employed in the rangefinding test was 100, 300, 1,000, 3,000, 10,000 ppm and a Forty Fathoms dilution water control. There was one replicate container per test concentration, and five organisms were placed in each chamber.
The 96-hour flow through study was initiated 1600 on 27 September. Test procedures used in the flow-through study followed those described in the protocol ATS-FAF-GT-01 (Attachment I) which is contained in EA's Aquatic Toxicology Laboratory Quality Control and Standard Operating Procedures Manual (EA, 1986). EA's protocol is in conformance with guidelines contained in ASTM's E729 dynamic procedure, and with EPA (Peltier and Weber, 1985) and Standard Methods (APHA, 1989) documents.
The test employed Masterflex peristaltic pumps which continuously delivered test solution from the stock solution tanks to splitter assemblies for each test concentration. The fill and dump splitter assemblies divided the solution flow equally to the two replicate chambers for each test concentration. The test was comprised of five concentrations and a control. The AER-0-F0AM XL-3 AFFF test series was 135, 240, 420, 750 and 1350 ppm (vol/vol) and control.
Daily, a fresh 60 liter batch of each test concentration was prepared in a 20 gallon aquarium using 20 ppt Forty Fathoms artificial seawater as dilution water and control. There were a total of six 20 gallon aquaria, one for each test concentration and control. The Masterflex pumps were calibrated to deliver test solution at 40 ml/min to each concentration's splitter assembly. Masterflex silicone tubing was used, and test
3
US00000366
solution did not come in contact with any pump parts. The test chambers were 19 L all glass aquaria, which were calibrated to hold 14 L of test solution at the standpipe overflow. Each test concentration exposure group consisted of two replicate chambers with 10 organisms each.
Mortality observations, pump delivery calibrations and water quality determinations were made daily throughout the 96-hour exposure period, and were recorded on the data sheets. Copies of the original data sheets are included in Attachment II. Temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH and salinity were measured in each batch of new test solution daily and for the old test solutions in at least one replicate of each concentration at 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours. Aeration was provided to all of the test chambers when the dissolved oxygen-saturation in the high test concentration dropped below 40 percent. The aeration rate was 100 bubbles/minute per EPA guidance. Using the total number of dead organisms per replicate and concentration at the end of the exposure period, the 96-hour median lethal concentration (LC50 value) was calculated by the binomial, moving average, and probit analysis methods as described as Stephan (1977). Copies of the statistical analysis are included in Attachment III.
2.5 REFERENCE TOXICANT TESTS
The reference toxicant used was sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The test species was exposed to the appropriate graded concentration series to determine if the lots of organism were within the acceptable limits of EA's Aquatic Toxicology Laboratory. The test duration was 24 hours and treatments were not replicated.
2.5 ARCHIVES
-
Original data sheets, memoranda, notes, and computer printouts are archived at EA's laboratory facilities in Sparks, Maryland. Primary data and associated information are retained for a period of 5 years unless a longer period of time is requested by the Naval Research Laboratory.

3. RESULTS
In the rangefinding test initiated on 25 September, all organisms exposed to 3,000 and 10,000 ppm AER-0-F0AM died vithin 24 hours. At 1,000 ppm there was 20 percent survival after 48 hours, and at concentrations of 300 ppm and below there was 100 percent survival at 48 hours. The 48-hour LC50 for the rangefinding test was 682 ppm. Aeration was provided to all test chambers 17.8 hours after the start of the 48 hour rangefinding test when the DO in the 1000 ppm chamber was measured at 3.8 ppm (40 percent saturation).
A summary of the water quality measurements recorded during the 96-hour flow-through study is presented in Table 2. On Day 1 of the study, aeration was provided to all head tanks and exposure chambers due to depressed dissolved oxygen levels in the test chambers. The results of the acute toxicity test are presented in Table 3. At the end of 96 hours of exposure, there was 100 percent survival in the 135, 240, 420 ppm AER-0-F0AM and the control treatment groups. In the 750 ppm treatment group there was 5 percent survival after 96 hours. All organisms exposed to 1,350 ppm AER-0-F0AM died within 24 hours. The resulting 96-hour LC50 for this test was 583 ppm with a 95 percent confidence interval of 420-750 ppm.
The LC50 for the reference toxicant test conducted on F. heteroclitus lot FU-005 was 13.1 mg/L sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). This test result was within EA's acceptability range of 4.3 - 18.6 mg/L SDS for heteroclitus reference toxicant tests.

PROTOCOL ATS-FAF-GT-Ol
24. FLOW-THROUGH ACUTE 96-HOUR LC50 ASSAY WITH A FISH
1. TEST OBJECTIVE
To assess the toxicity of a test article to a fish species under flow through conditions and determine the 96-hour LC50 using lethality as the test end point.
2. TEST ARTICLE
2.1 Description/Identification
Unless otherwise specified, the test article will be supplied by the client. Adequate chemical specifications with special reference to hazardous properties and storage conditions also will be supplied by the client.
2.2 Methods of Synthesis
Information on the methods of synthesis, stability, and data on composi tion or other characteristics which define the test article are on file with the client.
3. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
3.1 Test Organisms
A fish will constitute the test species as defined by project needs.
3.2 Source
Stocks are laboratory reared, obtained from a scientific organism vendor or field collected using techniques that will be specified in the report
3.3 Holding Conditions
Upon receipt, fish are transferred to holding tanks which are continu ously replenished with dechlorinated municipal tap water, synthetic sea water , or other appropriate dilution water. The fish are acclimated to laboratory conditions for a minimum of 7 days ..prior to testing. The laboratory is maintained on a 16-hour light, 8-hour dark photoperiod cycle by a programmable electrical timer. All fish stocks are examined regularly throughout the work week. Dead fish, or those displaying abnormal swimming behavior, discoloration, or pronounced lethargy are removed as observed, and recorded on appropriate log sheets. Fish
ETC-T-101 EA Engineering, Science,
and Technology, Inc. Effective May 1981 Revision 3, August 1986
Page 1 of 8
PROTOCOL ATS-FAF-GT-Ol
stocks are fed a commercial fish food a minimum of once daily throughout the work week. They are not fed for 48 hours prior to initiating a test.
3.4 Dilution Water
The source of dilution water is the City of Baltimore Municipal Water System. Upon entry to the laboratory, the water is passed through a high-capacity, activated-carbon filtration system to remove chlorine, detergents, and hexane-soluble organic materials. This water source has proven safe for aquatic organism toxicity testing, as evidenced by main tenance of the multigeneration Daphnia cultures, with no evident loss of fecundity. If requested, reconstituted fresh water, synthetic sea water, or other dilution water may be used.
3.5 Test Concentration Series
The test concentration series to be used for definitive toxicity tests will be selected following preliminary tests to bracket appropriate concentration ranges. A minimum of five concentrations and diluent water controls will be used. If it proves necessary to use a carrier solvent to disperse the test article in aqueous solution, an additional set of solvent controls will be used. All test concentrations and controls will normally be conducted with two replicates. Additional replicates may be used at the client's request.
3.6 Toxicant Delivery System
A solenoid-activated proportional diluter system similar to that des cribed by Peltier and Weber (1985) will constitute the toxicant delivery system. The proportional diluter will be calibrated prior to test initi ation and at test termination. Each test concentration should be at least 50 percent of the next highest concentration in the series. Test vessel calibrations, cycle times, flow rates, and other pertinent data will be reported.
3.7 Test Vessels and Test Volume
Test ^vessels will be of sufficient volume as to not exceed the organism loading ratio and minimum number of daily tank volume replacements.
3.8 Test Organism Number
,
A minimum of 10 test organisms will be used in each test replicate, con stituting a minimum number of 20 fish per treatment group. Fish will be randomly assigned to each test replicate.
ETC-T-101 EA Engineering, Science,
and Technology, Inc. Effective May 1981 Revision 3, August 1986
Page 2 of 8
PROTOCOL ATS-FAF-GT-Ol
3.9 Test Environment
The test vessels will be maintained at a temperature similar to that at which the fish have been acclimated, but within the recommended test range for that species. Test temperature will not vary more than +2 C from specified acclimation temperature. The tests will be conducted on a 16-hour light, 8-hour dark photoperiod cycle.
310 Analysis of Test Concentrations for Test Article
If required, test solution replicates may be analyzed for chemical analytical verification of achieved test concentrations. The analytical method and number of determinations will be formulated after consultation with the client. Where chemical analyses are necessary, both nominal and actual measured test solution concentrations will be reported.
3.11 Test Observations
Test organisms will be observed at a minimum of 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours after test initiation to determine number of animals killed by test article concentrations. The study will terminate after completion of the 4-day observation period. The study may be extended, however, at the request of the client.
Routine water quality measurements are performed on the test solutions and diluent water controls according to the following schedule: tem perature is measured daily from all test chambers; dissolved oxygen, salinity (when applicable), and pH are measured initially from all test chambers as well as at test termination, and from the control, low, medium, and high concentration at 24-, 48-, and 72-hour intervals. Specific conductance, total alkalinity, and total hardness are measured from the diluent water and sample (when applicable). Specific conduc tance may also be used for concentration monitoring at the request of the client. Test solutions will not be aerated unless dissolved oxygen concentrations fall below 40 percent of saturation. Analytical methods will be conducted according to APHA et al. (1985) and EPA (1979).
Dead fish are removed when observed. At the end of the 96-hour test period, a minimum of 30 surviving fish are removed from the test con tainers , placed in labeled specimen bags, and frozen. The fish are subsequently thawed, measured to the nearest mm (standard length), patted dry, and weighed to the nearest 0.01 g. The average length and weight of the test fish are reported, along with their respective ranges and stan dard deviations.

and Technology, Inc. Effective May 1981 Revision 3, August 1986
Page 3 of 8
PROTOCOL ATS-FAF-GT-Ol
3.12 Data Analysis
The LC50 values and associated statistics will be derived by the probit analysis, moving average, and binomial test methods as described by Stephan (1977). Depending on the nature of the data, other methods may be used including the probit approximation method of Litchfield and Wilcoxon (1949), SAS probit analysis (SAS Institute 1979), or graph ical interpolation using the log concentration vs. percent lethality as described by APHA et al. (1985). The methods used will be specified in the report.
4 . FINAL REPORT
The final report will be prepared to contain the following information:
Objectives and procedures stated in the approved protocol, including any changes made to the original protocol

statistical evaluation of water quality characteristics; and survival data where necessary.
5. QUALITY ASSURANCE
51 Amendments to Protocol
Amendments to the authorized protocol instigated by EA or by the client will be made only after proper authorization. Such authorization is achieved by completion of the Amendment to Protocol form by EA and the client.
5.2 Standard Operating Procedures
Unless otherwise specified, all procedures mentioned in the protocol are subject to detailed Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) which are con tained in the SOP manuals of the participating departments. These SOPs and protocols follow the U.S. EPA's Good Laboratory Practice Standards (GLPs) (EPA 1983).
5.3 Reference Toxicant
A reference toxicant bioassay, utilizing sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) or other appropriate reference toxicant, will be used as an internal quality check of the sensitivity of each batch of test organisms. Testing will be prior to or concurrent with the test or following the acclimation period for newly acquired organisms. The results of each test will be compared with historical toxicological information of reference toxicant tests performed at EA on the species, to determine if the results are within acceptable limits using the control charts outlined in Peltier and Weber (1985).
5-4 Quality Assurance Evaluation
The study described in this protocol may be subject to internal audit by the Quality Assurance Unit. A quality control officer will be respon sible for monitoring each study to assure the client that the facilities, equipment, personnel, methods, practices, records, and controls are in conformance with EA's QC program and EPA's GLPs.

Loading
Ten into

and loaded liters of test
solution. The loading factor did not exceed 1.0
grams per liter of solution passing through the
chamber in a 24 hour period.
Test Levels
This was a screening test and a concentration of 1000 ppm was chosen. Two replicates of ten organisms were exposed to this concentration.
gQntrpl
A control was run concurrently using the same dilution water and the same number of organisms as the test concentrations.
Beginning the Test
The test was conducted under flow-through
conditions. The test was initiated by randomly
introducing fish acclimated in accordance with the
mtiensutt edsesiagfnterint1 o0
the test chambers within 30 liters of the test solution
was
introduced into the chambers.
Proportional dilutors were used to deliver
additional test solutions. The dilutors were set
to deliver 10,000 ppm

of
a
(prepared in AS I D I water), mixed immediately
before introduction to the test chambers.
The flow rate through each test chamber was 6.2 cycles per 24 hours and each chamber was aerated.
All test vessels were examined at 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours; the number of dead were recorded and the dead animals were removed and discarded. The fish were observed at the same time and any unusual behavior was noted.
Measuring Temperature/PO/bH
The temperature of each test vessel was measured and recorded at the beginning of the test and at 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours.

DATA REPORTING QUALIFIERS
Indicates compound was analyzed for but not detected. Report
the minimum detection limit for the sample with the U (e.g. 10
U ) based on necessary concentration dilution actions. (This
is n ot necessarily the instrument detection limit.) The
footnote should read U-Campound was analyzed for but not
detected. The number is the minimum attainable detected limit
for the sample.
_
Indicates an estimated value. This flag is used either when
estimating a concentration for tentatively identified
compounds where a 1:1 response is assumed or when the mass
spectral data indicates the presence of a compound tha t meets
the identification criteria but the result is less than the
specified detection limit but greater than zero (e.g.: If
limit of detection is 10 ug/1 and a concentration of 3 ug/1 is
calculated, report as 3J.)
'
This flag is used when the analyte is found in the blank as well as a sample. It indicates possible/probable blank contamination and warns the data user to taka appropriate action.
This flag identifies all targeted compounds that were found above the method detection limits.
This flag indicates that the compounds are not applicable.
Aldol condensation product. Note: Data on soil samples expressed on a dry weight basis.
All non-water samples are reported .on soil forms. This includes samples whose matrix is listed as miscellaneous.
The initial and continuing calibration dates and times for the volatile fraction are listed on the BFB summary f o r m s . The initial and continuing calibration dates and times for the semi-volatile fractions are listed on the DFTPP summary forms.
