1. INTRODUCTION the request of the Naval Research Laboratory, Washington, D.C., BA Engineering, Science, and Technology, Inc. performed flow-through acute toxicity tests on two formulations (type 3 and type 6) of aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF), fire fighting agent. The objective of these tests was to determine the 96-hour median lethal concentration (LC50) of t e test materials to Fundulus heteroclitus (mummichogs) using lethality

USt y Records, and assigned EA accession numbers (EA sample
numbers ATI-017 and ATI-018 respectively,. Based on initial test
results an additional one liter of type 6 AFFP was requested in order to
1991su ficient sample volume, and that sample arrived on 5 February
amp e #ATl-065). Samples were stored at room temperature (20 C) when
n o t in u se .
2.2 TEST ORGANISMS
Juvenile mummichogs, Fundulus heteroclitus. constituted the test organisms. The test organisms were 92-96 days old at test initiation. The fish were obtained from cultures maintained at Hampton Roads Sanitation District in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
separate lots of F. heteroclitus (lot numbers FU-00A and FU-OOAA) were received on 10 and 21 January, respectively. The fish were held at 20 C and 20 ppt salinity and were fed flaked food daily until used in test ng. The mean acclimation temperatures and salinities for lots FU-OOA and FU-OOAA were; FU-00A-19.7 0.7 C and 20.8 0.5 pp, and FU-004A-- 20.2 0.8 C and 20.8 0.6 ppt.
There was no mortality observed in either lot of fish during the acciimation period. The mean length and weight of lot FU-OOA organisms vere 22.58 (.1.52) mm and 0.23 (0.05) g, respectively. The mean length an weight of lot FU-00AA organisms were 23.A9 (1.67) mm and
0.27 (0.07) g, respectively.

2.3 DILUTION WATER
The water used for acclimation, holding, and for the flow-through studies
Mari T ' ^
l'lal sea"ater- DrP synthetic sea salts (Forty Fathoms,
nt*rprls,s' Touson' Maryland) were added to dechlorinated tan waier allowed to age prior to use. A summary of the chemical
c aracterrstrcs of Forty Fathoms is presented in Table 1. The source of
he makeup water was Baltimore municipal water supply, which upon entry
n o t e laboratory was passed through a high capacity activated carbon
C r natin U n U Vhich removes chlorine and hexane soluble compounds.
2.4 TOXICITY TEST OPERATIONS AND PERFORMANCE
Test procedures used in the two flow-thrnngh studies followed those
inSg*"be! in !he P" t0,:1 ATS-FAP-GT-()1 (Attachment I) which is contained * <'"atic Toxlclogy laboratory Duality Control and Standard
withCaeuiH ::OC6dUreS Ha"Uai <EA' 1986> EA'S f-otocol in in conformance . guidelines contained in ASTM's E729 procedure, and with EPA (Peltier " e r ' 1985> and Standard Methods (APHA, 1989) documents.
The tests employed Masterflex peristaltic pumps which continuously e ivered 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 replicates
ambers for each test concentration. Each test was comprised of five
i T T TM 1" " aD`` 3 C0ntr01' The t7Pe 3 AFFF teSt ri" " 115, 240, . ' ' 2,100 pp"' (vnl7vol) and control, while the type 6 APFF test
series was 420, 750, 1,350, 2,400, 4,200 ppm and control.
* r M h 60 llt,r b,tcl1 o '`n11 test concentration was prepared in a 20 gallon aquarium using 20 pp, Party Fathoms artificial seawater as
llution water and control. There were a total of six 20 gallon aquaria, one for each test concentration and control. The masterflex pumps were
3
US00000314
calibrated to deliver teat solution at 40 nl/ain to each concentration's splitter assembly, asterflex silicone tubing was used, and test solution did not come in contact with any pump parts.
T h e t e S t charabers were 2 1/2 gallon all glass aquaria, which were calibrated to hold 5 L of test solution at the standpipe overflow. Based on the 40 mi/min flow to the two replicate tanks per concentration, there were more than five 90 percent replacement volumes to each test chamber during a 24-hour period. 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 the test chambers when the dissolved oxygen-saturation in any of the tanks 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 were exposed to the appropriate graded concentration series to determine if the lots of organisms were within the acceptable limits of BA's Aquatic Toxicology Laboratory. The test duration was 24 hour and treatments were not replicated.

3. RESULTS
Both flow~through studies required aeration because dissolved oxygen (DO) levels dropped below 40 percent saturation during the test period. Aeration was initiated on test #076 with the Type 3 AFFF on the afternoon of day 1 of the test when DO's of 3.9 and 28.5 percent saturation were measured in the 2,100 ppm replicates. All test organisms were still aiive at that time. Similarly, aeration was initiated on test #094 with Type 6 AFFF on the afternoon of day 1 when DOs reached the trigger value, and all test organisms were alive when aeration was started. All other water quality parameters were within acceptable limits during the tests and a summary of water quality values measured can be found in Table 2.
The results of the flow-through acute toxicity tests are summarized in Table 3. In the acute test (#076) which was conducted with the type 3 sample there was 100 percent survival in the control and the 115, 240, 49, and 1,000 ppm concentrations. There were no surviving organisms in the 2,100 ppm concentration at test termination. Based on the survival data, the 96-hour LC50 was 1449.1 ppm with a 95 percent confidence interval of 1,000-2,100 ppm.
In acute test 91-094, conducted with type 6 sample, there was 100 percent survival in the laboratory control and the 420, 750, 1,350, and 2,400 ppm test concentrations. At test termination there was 25 percent survival f organisms in the 4,200 ppm concentration. The 96-hour LC50 value and 95 percent confidence interval based on the survival data was 3613.0 (2,400--4,200) ppm.
The reference toxicant LC50 value conducted on F. heteroclitus lot FU-004 was 7.1 mg/L. EA does not presently have sufficient data points with heteroclitus to calculate a valid acceptability range (minimum 5 values). LC50 values for the previous 3 tests ranged from 11.2 to 15.8 mg/L and are in the same general concentration range as the present test.

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 bv
the client.
3
22 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.
33 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

and Technology, Inc. Effective May 1981 Revision 3, August 1986
Page 1 of 8
US00000322
PROTOCOL ATS-FAP-GT-01
stocks are fed a commercial fish food a minimum of once daily throughout the work week. They are not fed for 8 hours prior to initiating a test.
34 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.
36 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.
37 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.

and Technology, Inc. Effective May 1981 Revision 3, August 1986
Page 2 of 8
US00000323
PROTOCOL ATS-FAF-GT-Ol
39 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.
3-10 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 veil 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.

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
* Identity of the test articles by name or code number and

BINOMIAL PROB.(PERCENT)
2.06947 LESS THAN 0,001
THE BINOMIAL TEST SHOWS THAT 2400 AND 4200 CAN BE USED AS STATISTICALLY SOUND CONSERVATIVE 95 PERCENT CONFIDENCE LIMITS BECAUSE THE ACTUAL CONFIDENCE LEVEL ASSOCIATED WITH THESE LIMITS IS GREATER THAN 95 PERCENT.
AN APPROXIMATE LC50 OF 3613.01 IS OBTAINED BY NONLINEAR INTERPOLATION BETWEEN 2400 AND 4200
WHEN THERE ARE LESS THAN TWO CONCENTRATIONS AT WHICH THE PERCENT DEAD IS BETWEEN 0 AND 100, NEITHER THE MOVING AVERAGE METHOD NOR THE PROBIT METHOD CAN GIVE ANY STATISTICALLY SOUND RESULTS.
COMPARE RESULTS WITH ORIGINAL DATA TO SEE IF THEY ARE REASONABLE.
