Gary Hohenstein of 3M submitted one sample for gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analysis .
The sample was analyzed by GClMS to verify the concentration of Diethylene Glycol Butyl Ether (CAS 112-34-
5) using Method 3510C for the extraction and Method 8270 for the analysis . The results for the analysis for sample Distribution System Guin House yielded Diethylene Glycol Sutyt Ether at a concentration of 541 ug/L . The sample duplicate yielded results of 508 ug/L .

The sample was received at Pace Analytical on May 3, 2007 . Please see attached documentation for the sample condition upon rece ipt. The sample was described as follows :
Pace Analytical ID Client ID 405 096800 1 f3is#ribution System Guin House
3. Holding Tim-es
The EPA 8270 method has a defined extraction holding time of 7 days from collection of sample with a
subsequent 40 day analytical holding time . The sample was extracted and analyzed within this holding time .

The sample was analyzed under guidelines set forth in the EPA 8270 method for analysis of seml-votatile analyles. The sample and all associated quality control samples were extracted by EPA 3510 (separatory funnel extraction). The sample was measured for volume and the pH was taken . The sample and the quality assurance samples were fortified with surrogates and matrix spikes and laboratory control spikes were fortified with matrix spike . The sample and quality samples were first acidified to a pH of <2 with 1 :1 sulfuric acid and extracted using 3 separate aliquots of 60 mL of methylene chloride for 2 minutes each shake . The sample and quality samples were then brought to a pH >11 with ION sodium hydroxide and extracted using 3 separate aliquots of 60 mL of methylene chlo ide for 2 minutes each shake, The extracts were dried by passing through baked and rinsed sodium sulfate prior to ooncentration . The sample and quality control samples were concentrated on a steam bath utilizing a KD/concentrator(snyder column set-up at 90 degrees C . The extract was concentrated to approximately 4-6 mL on the steam bath and then finally down to I mL by way of nitrogen blo+adown . The semivolatile analytes were fortified with 8270 internal standard and directly injected onto the GC/MS analytical system for analysis.
The instrumentation used is listed below .

5.1 Calibratio n
A neat standard of 2-(2-Butoxyethoxy)ethanol (also known as Detttylene Glycol Butyl Ether) was purchased from Chem service and diluted into Methylene Chloride . The sample replicates were quantitated for Diethylene Glycol Butyl Ether using the average response factor generated from a six-point internal standard calibra tion curve per the EPA 8270 method . The analytes were calibrated from 10 to 200 ppb and the curve was not forced through ze ro . The quantita ti on was determined from the lowest standard level from the calibration curve . The 13mit of detection has not been statistically determined using a method detection limit study. The initial calibration was not verified by an external source .
5.2 Blanks A method blank was analyzed along with the sample to determine system cleanGness . The method blank was prepared by adding 1000 mL of delonized water into a separato ry funnel . The method blank was extracted the same as the samples (pH adjusted, etc.) . Diethylene Glycol Butyl Ether was not dete cted in the method blank .
5 .3 Surrogate s Surrogates were added to the sample, sample replicates, and all quality control samples before the extraction process. This was done by adding 1 OOpL of 750-1000uglrnL surrogate standard . The recoveries for the surrogate standards may have been influenced by the concentration of target analytes and other non-target analytes present in the samples. The surrogate recoveries are summarized in a table later in this report .
5.4 Matrix Spikes
A matrix spike (MS) at a higher concentration ( in upper range of the calibration) and matrix spike at a lower concentrati on ( in lower range of the calibration) were prepared by spiking 300 N1 and 50 pl of a 510 itg (mL solution respectively of Diethylene Glycol Butyl Ether. The laborato ry matri x spikes were attempted but were not used for the accuracy assessment because the endogenous levels in the sample greatly exceeded the fortified spike amounts.
5,5 Laboratory Control- Sample
The LCS and LCSD's were extracted the same as the samples . A laboratory cont rol sample (LCS) and laboratory control sample duplicate (LCSD) at a higher concentrati on were prepared by spiking with 300 pL of 510 pg/mL of Diethylene Glycol Butyl Ether solution . The average recovery of Diethytene Glycol Butyl Ether wa s 77.4% . A laboratory control sample (LCS) and laboratory control sample duplicate (LCSD) at a lower concentration were prepared by spiking with 50 p L of 510 NgfmL of Diethylene Glycol Butyl Ether solution. The average recovery of Diethylene Glycol Butyl Ether was 57 .2I9 .
5.6 Continuing Calibration Verification
Continuing calibration verification standards (CCV's) were analyzed during the analytical sequence to verify consistent system operation . The opening CCV for the dilutions performed had a recovery for Diethylene Glycol Butyl Ether of 101 .6% .
