ACUTE TOXICITY TO FISH (FATHEAD MINNOW) TEST SUBSTANCE
Identity:A mixturecontainingperfluorooctanesulfonatweh,ich may also be referredtoas PFOS, FC-95, or as a component of FC-206 or L3243. (1-Octanesulfoniaccid)(CAS # 2795-39-3).
Remarks: The 3M productionlotnumber was 1. The testsample isFC206. Currentinformationindicatesitisa mixtureof0.67% PFOS, 17.5% diethyleneglycolbutylether,78.91% water,1.33% Sultonefoamer, 1% sodium octylsulfate0,.04% sodium lauryslulfate0,.5% polyoxyethylene monooctylphenylether,and 0.05% benzotriazole.
The followingsummary applies to a mixture with incompletely characterizedconcentrations of impurities.Data may not accurately reflecttoxicityof the fluorochemical component of the testsample.

RESULTS
Nominal concentrations: Blank control5,00, 1250, 2500, 3750, and 5000 mg/L
Element values: 96-hour LC50 (static=) 1750 mg/L 96-hour LC50 (continuousflow)= 3000 mg/L

CONCLUSTQNS
The testsample 96-hour LC50 forfathead minnow was determined to be 1750 mg/L under staticonditionsand 3000 mg/L under continuousflowconditions.
