INTRODUCTION This seedling emergence study was conducted for 3M Corporation at the Wildlife International, Ltd. greenhouse facility in Easton, Maryland. The in-life portion of the test was conducted from November 12, 2001 to June 5, 2002. Raw data generated at Wildlife International, Ltd., the study protocol, and a copy of the final report were filed in the archives located on the Wildlife International, Ltd. site. Key personnel involved in the study are listed in Appendix 1.
PURPOSE The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of Perflourooctanesulfonate,Potassium Salt (PFOS) on the seedling emergence and growth of seven species of plants.
EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN There were two parts to this study. The first part was a twenty-one day seedling emergence test. The second part, an extended growth period, followed immediately. The experimental design for the overall study consisted of a negative control and five treatment groups, with fbur replicate pots in each group. To begin the twenty-one day portion of the test, ten seeds were planted in each pot. Test concentrations of PFOS were made by soil incorporation to each treatment group prior to the planting of seeds. The nominal test substance concentrations were 3.91, 15.6, 62.5, 250, and 1000 mg of
PFOS per kilogram of dry soil (mg a.i./kg). These rates were selected based on the results of a non-
GLP rangefinding test, and are not necessarily indicative of expected environmental concentrations.
A control group, which received no test substance incorporation, was maintained concurrently.
Seeds were impartially assigned to growth pots on the day of test initiation. The replicate pots were placed in a randomized block design on a greenhouse table after planting. Observations of emergence were made on Days 7, 15, and 21. On day 21, observations of height, and assigpment of plant condition scores were made. Fresh weights were conducted on all replicates containing more than one living seedling. Where possible, one seedling from each replicate was then left to grow until plants produced fruit (i.e., the extended growth period), whereupon, plants and fruit were clipped and weighed independently.

PROJECT NO.: 454-110
MATERIALS AND METHODS The study was conducted according to the procedures outlined in the protocol, "PFOS: A, Toxicity Test to Determine the Effects of the Test Substance on Seedling Emergence of Seven Species of Plants." Changes to the approved protocol are listed in Appendix 2. The methods used in conducting this study were based upon procedures specified in the OECD Proposal for Rtwision of (Guideline 208: Terrestrial Non-Target Plant Tests (1) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Series
850 - Ecological Effects Test Guidelines OPPTS Numbers 850.4100 (2) and 850.4225 (3).
Test Substance The test substance was received from 3M Corporation on October 29, 1998, and was assigned
Wildlife International, Ltd. identification number 4675. The test substance was a white powder identified as FC-95; lot number 217; with a reanalysis date of August 3 1,2006. Information provided by the Sponsor indicated a test substance purity of 86.9%. The test substance was stored at ambient room temperature.
Preparation and Soil Incorporation of Test Substance The test soil was prepared by mixing PFOS into bulk test soil with a measured soil moisture of
15%. Test substance for treatment groups 3.91, 15.6, 62.5,250, and 1000 mg a.i./kg was prepared by weighing five known weights (0.2690, 1.1, 4.3, 17.1, and 68.5 g) of PFOS. Approximatelly 1000 g was removed from a measured 70 kg of bulk soil and mixed with weighed test substance for each test
concentration. The remaining 69 kg of bulk soil was placed into soil mixer, and the 1 kg of`soil with
test substance was added. The constituents were then mixed for ten minutes in order to prepare the test soil for each treatment group. Soils were mixed from lowest to highest concentration to avoid cross-contamination. The negative control soil was prepared prior to the treatment groups, -butin the same manner, except no test substance was added. At the completion of mixing, the test s80ilswere sampled to provide material for analytical confirmation of the test concentrations. Analytical samples were stored at ambient room conditions for up to four days after their collection until they were processed for analysis.

These species were chosen because they represent ecologically important families, and are readily cultivated test organisms that are widely used in research. An additional consideration was to select species which could be grown to fruiting relatively quickly, while maintaining a reasonable plant size. Seeds were selected from a single size class within each species in order to reduce the potential for bias from differing seed sizes. Seeds used in this study were not treated with fungicides, insecticides or repellents prior to test initiation.
Test Soil The soil used for the test represented a loam soil, and was composed of kaolinite clay, industrial
quartz sand, and peat mixed in a 2:25:1 ratio (w:w:w). Crushed limestone was added to buffer the pH of the soil, and a slow-release fertilizer was added to provide nutrients essential for plant growth. A sample of soil representative of that used in this study was sent to Agvise Laboratories, Inc., in Northwood, North Dakota, for analysis of the particle size distribution and organic matter content of the soil (Appendix 13). The soil was determined to consist of 49% sand, 30% silt, and 2!1% clay, with an organic matter content of 2.1%. The soil pH was measured by Wildlife International Ltd. to be 7.79. A copy of the complete report from Agvise Laboratories, Inc. was filed in the archives at Wildlife International, Ltd. along with the raw data for this study.
Planting of Seeds Seeds were planted in plastic pots (approximately 16 cm in diameter and 12 cm deep) on the day
of test substance application. A template was used to gently compact the soil arid leave ten uniform holes for planting. One indiscriminatelyselected seed was then planted in each hole, for a total of ten seeds in each pot. Personnel then closed the holes by slightly depressing the soil surface with their fingers.

PROJECT NO.: 454-110
Watering of Seedlings Water lost through transpiration and evaporation was replaced by subirrigation with well water
from the greenhouse facility. Seedlings were subirrigated as needed during the test to minimize the potential for the leaching of the test substance through the soil. Subirrigation trays were iilled to a predetermined depth to help standardize the amount of water delivered to each tray. The days on which watering occurred are listed in Appendix 5.
Environmental Conditions The environmental conditions (light intensity, temperature, and relative humidity) during the test
are summarized in Appendix 5. The temperature within the greenhouse was controlled with a Wadsworth Microstep S/A Environmental Control System. Artificial lighting was used to supplement natural sunlight in order to provide a uniform 14-hour photoperiod. The light intensity, temperature, and relative humidity within the greenhouse were continuously monitored during the test with a Campbell CR-10 datalogger.
Pesticide and Metal Screening of Well Water and Soil The well water and soil used for plant studies are analyzed periodically for pesticide and metals.
No analytes were measured at levels that were expected to have an impact on the study (14ppendix 14). Reports for the latest analyses are stored in the archives at the Wildlife International, Ltd. site in Easton, Maryland.
Observations and Measurements Observations on Days 7 and 15 were conducted to document seedling emergence. Observations
on Day 21 were made to document seedling emergence and growth, and to determine the condition of individual seedlings. Observations consisted of noting whether emergence had or had not occurred, and assessing the condition of each seedling. Emergence was defined as the presence of visible plant tissue at the surface of the soil. Seedling condition was described by noting the presence o:r absence of possible signs of phytotoxicity such as necrosis, leaf wrinkle, chlorosis, plant lodging or plant stunting. Each emerged seedling was then assigned a numerical score (see Table 1) that described the plant condition (4). Condition score is a subjective or qualitative assessment that determines whether damage is slight, moderate, or severe. A score of 10 does not mean that 10% of the plant is showing the effect (e.g. chlorosis), merely that the severity of the effect (e.g. chlorosis) is very slight.

PROJECT NO.: 454-110
On day 21, seedling height was measured to the nearest whole centimeter from the surfiice of the soil to the tip of the tallest leaf (alfalfa, flax, lettuce, onion, and ryegrass) or to the apical meristem (soybean and tomato). All living seedlings except one per replicate (when available) were then clipped at soil level, combined, and weighed within 5 minutes of clipping. The total weight of the shoots was divided by the number of seedlings weighed in order to calculate the mean weight per plant. The one plant per replicate, when available, which was not sacrificed was allowed to1 grow for participation in the extended growth test. Alfalfa, flax, soybean, and tomato were grown until fruit production. Onions were grown until an enlarged bulb was evident. Lettuce was grown until adequate leaf tissue was available for analysis. Ryegrass seed production was anticipated, but was not observed.
Soil Sampling and Analysis On the day of test soil preparation (November 12, 2001), three soil samples were collected from
each treatment group to verify the test concentrations and determine the homogeneity of the test substance in the carrier (soil). One sample was collected from the control group. Day 0 samples were collected from the soil from each test group remaining after pots were filled for planting. On day 21 and at termination of the last test species, two soil samples were collected from the treatment groups to verify and determine homogeneity of the test substance in the soil. One sample was collected from the control group on both sampling dates. These samples were: collected from test pots. Day 21 samples were collected by removing a small portion of soil from the surface arid placing it in the sample container. Test termination samples were collected on June 5 , 2002 using a. soil core sampler which removed a cylindrical core of the soil from the surface to near the bottom of the test pot. Since the test was terminated on different days for the various species, the test termination soil samples were collected from the pots containing ryegrass, which was the last species to terminate. Samples were stored at ambient room conditions until analysis was begun on August 14, 2002. Chemical analysis of the soil used in this study was performed by Wildlife International, Ltd. (Appendix 4). The test substance was used to prepare calibration standards.
Tissue Sampling and Analysis On Day 2 1, December 3,2001, following observations of emergence, and measurements of height
and fresh weight, three samples of plant tissue were taken from each species at each test concentration, and analyzed for PFOS. The three samples were obtained from a composite:of tissue
- 13 -
PROJECT NO.: 454-110
from each of three replicate pots. Three additional plant tissue samples were taken from the single plant remaining in each replicate, when available, for each species at each test concentration at test termination of the extended growth period. Plants from the fourth replicate in each group, when present, were used to determine the moisture content of plant tissue at the end of each portion of the test (21-day and extended growth). Samples were stored frozen until analysis. Chemical analysis of
the plant tissue collected in this study was performed by Wildlife International, Ltd. (Appendix 4).
The test substance was used to prepare calibration standards. Dates of test termination for each species are listed below:

June 5,2002 January 18,2002 February 14,2002
Data Analyses Statistical analyses were used to aid in the evaluation of effects of test substance application on
seedling emergence, survival, shoot weight, and height. These variables were defined for statistical
analysis as follows: Seedling Emergence: The number of emerged seedlings per ten planted seeds in each pot. Survival: The number of emerged seedlings in each pot that were living at test termination per ten planted seeds. Shoot Weight: The mean shoot weight of sacrificed living emerged seedlings in each pot. Height: The average height of living emerged seedlings in each pot.
Test data were evaluated to determine the no-observed-effect-concentration(NOEC) and lowestobservable-effect-concentration (LOEC) for condition and growth. The NOEC is defined as the maximum test substance concentration that shows no adverse phytotoxic effects and below which no phytotoxic effects are manifested. The LOEC is defined as the lowest test substance concentration used in the study that shows an adverse effect on a variable of interest. Mean seedling emergence,
- 14-
PROJECT NO.: 454-110
survival, weight, and height of the control and treatment groups were compared with Dunnett's t-test, using the DUNNETT option of the GLM (general linear model) procedure of SAS version 8 (5). Significance was determined at the level of 0.05 (p<0.05). Dunnett's test was used to aid in establishing the NOEC by determining which treatment groups differed significantly from the control group.
Statistical analyses for species also included the determination of effect rates (EC estimates) and
their confidence limits using the non-linear regression analysis of Bruce and Versteeg (6) when
reductions in test endpoints among one or more treatment groups were 25% or more relative to
control means. Analyses were conducted using the NLIN procedure of SAS version 8 (5). EC,
values (i.e. EC25and ECSo)were defined as the test substance application rater; that caused an x%
change in the treatment group mean emergence, dry weight, or height relative to the control group.
EC, estimates were calculated using nominal test concentrations and treatment group mean values
with the following equation:
I Ro * @[(log(EC,)-log(C))/o +Z,] 0 0
R= {
I Ro
c=o
where
R
= the predicted biotic response at concentration C
RO
= the predicted biotic response for controls
@[ 1
log(EC.J
= the cumulative area under the standard, normal distribution = the logarithm of the predicted ER giving an x percentage of decrease in the biological parameter vs. the
control
zx
= the normal deviate above which x percentage of the area of the standard normal distribution lies.
0
= the standard deviation of the normal distribution
Effects on survival were designated as LC, values, and were calculated using the method described
above.
If the fit of the data to the regression model was poor, or if confidence intervals were not
calculated, the EC, estimates were calculated using linear interpolation (7).
RESULTS
Analytical Chemistry Artificial Soil. Samples of artificial soil collected on Days 0 and 21, and at test termination
were submitted and analyzed for PFOS. All negative control artificial soil samples were <:LOQ for PFOS. Day 0 analyses of the 3.91, 15.6, 62.5, 250, and 1000 mg a.i./kg treatment levels `had mean measured values of 3.61, 11.1, 50.8, 276, and 998 mg a.i./kg, corresponding to 92.3%, 71.2?/0,81.3%, 1lo%, and 99.8% of the nominal concentrations, respectively (Appendix 4.19). PFOS measured

PROJECT NO.: 454-110
values for test termination samples are presented in Appendix 4.20. The 3.91, 15.6, 62.5, 250 and 1000 mg a.i./kg treatment levels had mean measured values of 1.29, 3.56, 16..2, 157 and 474 mg a.i./kg, corresponding to 33.0%, 22.8%, 25.9%, 62.8% and 47.4% of the nominal conce:ntrations, respectively at test termination. A representative ion chromatogram of an artificial soil test sample is presented in Appendix 4.2 1.
Dav 2 1 Samples. The results of soil and tissue analyses of samples collected on Day 21 were not considered representative of the actual levels of PFOS in soil and tissue, and are therefore not reported. The measured levels of PFOS in soil samples were generally well above nominal. The apparently high concentrations were thought to be an artifact resulting from two factors. First, the process of subirrigation during the test was thought to concentrate PFOS near the soil surface of test pots. Second, the samples were collected by removing a small amount of soil from the top of the soil profile. In addition, tissue samples collected on Day 21 were thought to have been inadvertently contaminated during collection. Due to the small size of the seedlings on Day 21, and the apparently high levels of PFOS at the soil surface, it was determined that soil particles were attached to the seedlings and biased the analytical results.
Plant Tissues. Samples of fruit tissue from five species of plant (alfalfa, flax, onion, soybean, and tomato) grown in negative control and PFOS-treated artificial soils were collected at test termination (for a given species) and analyzed for PFOS residues. Samples of vegetative tissue from
seven species of plant (alfalfa, flax, lettuce, onion, ryegrass, soybean, and tomato) grown in negative
control and PFOS-treated artificial soils were collected at experimental termination (for a given species) and analyzed for PFOS residues. Measured PFOS concentrations are presented in Appendices 4.22 - 4.33. Representative ion chromatograms of plant fruit and vegetative tissue test samples are presented in Appendices 4.34 and 4.35, respectively.

PROJECT NO.: 454-110 Appendix 4 The Analysis of PFOS In Soil and Seven Species of Plants In support of Wildlife International,Ltd. Project No.: 454-110

PROJElCT NO.: 454-1 10
INTRODUCTION Soil and plant tissue (vegetative and fruit) samples were collected from a plant toxicity study designed to determine the effects of Perfluorooctanesulfonate, Potassium Salt (PFOS) to seven species of plants. This study was conducted by Wildlife International, Ltd. for 3M Corporation and identified as Project Number 454-110. The chemistry phase of this study was conducted at the Wildlife International, Ltd. analytical chemistry facility in Easton, Maryland using high performance liquid chromatography with triple quadrupole mass spectrometric detection (HPLC,MS/MS). Samples were prepared and analyzed between November 15,2001 and August 28,2002.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Test Substance The test substance used for this study was Wildlife International, Ltd. identification number 4675.
The test substance was used to prepare calibration and matrix fortification samples.
Analytical Methodolonv Artijicial Soil Submitted artificial soil samples were analyzed for PFOS following procedures documented in Wildlife International, Ltd. study number 454C-120 entitled "Analytical Method Validation for the Determination of Perfluorooctanesulfonate, Potassium Salt (PFOS) in Artificial Soil" (8). The entire submitted soil sample was blended for approximately two minutes prior to sub-sampling the requisite 10-g aliquot for the analytical determination. The sub-samples were extracted with methanol, agitated for a minimum of 30 minutes on a gyratory shaker table at approximately 250 rpm, and vacuum filtered with qualitative filter paper. The retained soil was triple rinsed with methanol. The filtrate was then transferred to a 200-mL volumetric flask and brought to volume with methanol. Approximately 20 milliliters of each sample was transferred to a separate vial or tube and centrifuged for approximately 5 minutes at 2000 rpm. Dilutions into the calibration range of the HPLC/MS/MS methodology were performed with a solution of 50% methanol (HPLC grade, 99.9+%) and 50% NANOpure@water. Samples were then an(a1yzedby direct injection. Concentrations of PFOS were determined by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography using a Hewlett-Packard Model 1100 High Performance Liquid
Chromatograph (HPLC) with a Perkin-Elmer API 3000LC Mass Spectrome:ter equipped with a
Perkin-Elmer TurboIonSpray ion source. Chromatographic separations were achieve,d using a
-36-
PROJElCT NO.: 454-1 10
Keystone Betasil CIScolumn (50 mm x 2.0 mm, 3 pm particle size) fitted with a Keystoine Javelin CISguard column (20 mm x 2.0 mm). A method flowchart for PFOS determinations in artificial soil is provided in Appendix 4.1 and the instrument parameters are summarized in Appendix 4.2.
Plant Tissue Submitted plant tissue samples were analyzed for PFOS following procedures
documented in Wildlife International, Ltd. study number 454C-125 entitled "Analytical Method Validation for the Determination of Perfluorooctanesulfonate, Potassium Salt (PFOS) in Plant Tissues" (9). Vegetative (i.e. stems and leaves) and fruit tissues were processed and analyzed using the same procedures. The entire submitted plant sample was manually shredded, cut, and/or blended as appropriate. If sufficient sample quantity was available, one-gram aliquots of each homogenate were weighed into vials for analytical determination. Numerous stu4y samples ( i e . Day 21 vegetative tissues) were quantity limited. Therefore, the following criterion was implemented: If a given replicate (A, B, or C) for a test level contained 20.5 g of tissue, the replicate was individually analyzed. If two or more replicates contained <0.5 g, the replicates were composited. Compositedreplicates were analyzed when the composite weight was,20.5 g.
Plant sub-samples were extracted in the vials with ten milliliters of methanol. Extraction consisted of manual shaking for approximately one minute followed by approximately 30 minutes of agitation on a gyratory shaker table set at approximately 250 rpm. The sub-samples `werethen
centrifuged for approximately ten minutes at approximately 2000 rpm. Dilutions into the
calibration range of the HpLC/MS/MS methodology were performed with a solution of 50% methanol (HPLC grade, 99.9+%)and 50% NANOpure@water. Samples were then an,alyzedby direct injection using the same instrumental conditions as described for the determination of PFOS in soil (Appendix 4.2). A method flowchart for the determination of PFOS in plant tissues is provided in Appendix 4.3.
Primary and Secondary Stock Solutions All primary and secondary stock preparations were adjusted for the purity of the test
substance (86.9%). Details on the preparation of the stock solutions of PFQS are provided in Appendix 4.4. The primary and secondary stocks were used for preparation of calibration standards and matrix fortification samples.

PROJBCT NO.: 454-110
Calibration Standards and Calibration Curves Calibration standards of PFOS, prepared in 5050 methanol: NANOpure@ water by
appropriate dilution of the 0.00100 pg a.i./ pL stock solution of PFOS in methanol (Appendix 4.4), were analyzed with each soil and plant tissue sample set. For soil analyses, PFOS calibration standards ranged in concentration from 1.00 to 10.0 pg a.i./L. For plant tissue analyses, PFOS calibration standards ranged in concentration from 0.400 to 5.00 pg a.i./L. The calibration standard series was injected at the beginning and end of each run, and one standard was injected, at a minimum, after every five samples. The same and most prominent peak response for F'FOS was utilized to monitor PFOS in all calibration and study samples. No attempt was made to quantify PFOS on the basis of individual isomeric components. Linear regression equations were generated using peak area responses versus the respective concentrations of the calibration standards. Typical calibration curves for PFOS determinations in artificial soil and plant tissues are presented in Appendices 4.5 and 4.6, respectively. Representative ion chromatograms of low- and high-level PFOS calibration standards are presented in Appendices 4.7 and 4.8.
The concentrations of PFOS in the samples were determined by substituting peak area responses into the applicable linear regression equation. Concentrations were calculated on a dry weight basis using moisture determination data submitted with the samples. An example of the calculations for a representative artificial soil sample is included in Appendix 4.9.
Limits of Quantitation Artijicial Soil The method limit of quantitation (LOQ) in artificial soil was 1.18 mg a.i./kg on a dryweight basis and was calculated as the product of the lowest calibration standard (1.OO pg a.i./L = 0.00100 mga.i./L), the weight/volume dilution factor of the matrix blank samples (1000) divided by the percent solids for the test system soil (84.9%).
Plant Tissue - Fruit Method LOQs in plant h i t tissues were reported on a dry-weight basis and were
calculated for each plant fruit species, except alfalfa, as the product of the low-level calibration standard concentration, the weightkolume dilution factor of the matrix blank samples, divided by the percent solids determined for the fruit species negative control samples. The presence of
- 38 -
PROJECT NO.: 454-1 10
contamination andor interferent matrix species in alfalfa h i t tissue necessitated a unique LOQ definition relative to the other plant h i t species. For alfalfa fruit, the LOQ was calculiated on a dry-weight basis as the maximum mg PFOSkg equivalent concentration obstmed in the negative control extract rounded upward to the nearest tenth mg a.i./kg value (see Limits of QuantitationPlant Tissue- Vegetative).
Plant Tissue - Vegetative
Method LOQs in plant vegetative tissues were reported on a dry weight basis and were
calculated as the maximum mg PFOS/kg equivalent concentration observed in the negative control extracts for each plant vegetative tissue species, rounded upward to the nearest tenth mg a.i./kg value. As was the case for alfalfa h i t , unidentified matrix interferences were often evident in selected negative control samples at levels above the low standard equivalent LOQ definition (see Limits of Quantitation,Plant Tissue - Fruit). Further, the ma&nitudeof the matrix interference was highly variable within a set of negative controls for a given vegetative tissue species, thereby negating use of an averaged background correction approach.
Matrix Fortifications and Matrix Blanks Artijkial Soil Selected 20.0-g aliquots of artificial soil matrix were fortified with the appropriate stock solutions of PFOS prepared in methanol using a gas-tight syringe. The fortified soils were then homogenized with blending for approximately two minutes. A 10-g aliquot of each homogenized fortified soil sample was weighed into a tared weigh boat and transferred to an 8-oz. Frenchsquare bottle for extraction. The matrix blanks were unfortified artificial soil.
Along with the sample analyses, three matrix blanks were analyzed to determine possible interferences. No interferences were observed at or above the LOQ during the sample analyses (Appendix 4.10). A representative ion chromatogram of a matrix blank sample in artificial soil is presented in Appendix 4.11.
Artificial soil samples were fortified at 2.36, 118, and 1410 mg a.i./kg (dry weight basis)
and analyzed concurrently with the samples to determine the mean procedural recovery. The method yielded mean procedural recoveries of 83.9%, 89.0% and 86.5%, respectively ('4ppendix
-39-
PROJECT NO.: 454-110
4.10). Sample measured concentrations were not corrected for the mean procedural recoveries. A representative ion chromatogram of a matrix fortification sample in artificial soil is presented in Appendix 4.12.
Plant Tissues Selected aliquots (approximately 1.OO g) of negative control plant tissues were fortified
with appropriate stock solutions of PFOS prepared in methanol using a gas-tight syringe.. A matrix blank was prepared with unfortified negative control plant tissue.
Fruit and vegetative plant tissue samples were fortified at target nominal concentrations of 0.050, 0.50, and 50.0 mg a.i./kg (wet weight basis) and analyzed concurrently with the samples to determine mean procedural recoveries. In fruit tissue, the mean procedural recoveriles ranged from 86.3 to 117% of nominal concentrations(Appendix 4.13). Sample measured concentrations were not corrected for the mean procedural recoveries. Representative ion chromatograms of a matrix blank and a matrix fortification sample in a plant fruit tissue are presented in Appendices 4.14 and 4.15, respectively. In vegetative tissue, the mean procedural recoveries ranged from 88.0 to 110% of nominal concentrations (Appendix 4.16). Sample measured concentrations were not corrected for the mean procedural recoveries. Representative ion chromalograms of a matrix blank and a matrix fortification sample in a plant vegetative tissue are presented in Appendices 4.17 and 4.18, respectively.
RESULTS Artificial Soil
Samples of artificial soil collected on Days 0 and 21, and at test termination were submitted and analyzed for PFOS. All negative control artificial soil samples were <LO() for PFOS. Day 0 analyses of the 3.91, 15.6,62.5,250, and 1000 mg a.i./kg treatment levels had mean measured values of 3.61, 11.1, 50.8, 276, and 998 mg a.i./kg, corresponding to 92.3%, 71.2%, 81.3%, 1'10%, and 99.8% of the nominal concentrations, respectively (Appendix 4.19). PFOS measured values for test termination samples are presented in Appendix 4.20. The 3.91, 15.6, 62.5, 250 and 1000 rng a.i./kg treatment levels had mean measured values of 1.29,3.56, 16.2, 157 and 474 mg a.i./kg, corresponding to 33.0%, 22.8%, 25.9%, 62.8% and 47.4% of the nominal concentrations, respectively. A representative ion chromatogram of an artificial soil test sample is presented in Appendix 4.2:l.

Appendix 4.9 Example Calculations for a Representative Sample
The analytical result and percent recovery of PFOS in artificial soil for sample number 454-110-10, nominal concentration of 62.5 mg a.i./kg, was calculated using the following equations:
c = -P A - b
m
where
PA = peakarea m = slopeoftheline C = concentration
b = y - axisintercept
Using the appropriate regression data from the sample analysis sequence (Appendix 4.5), the concentration in the final sample solution was calculated as:
28656 - 1818.5138 = 10974956 = 0.002445 mg a.i./L
The measured concentrations of PFOS in the artificial soil sample determined as follows:
ConcentrationPFOS (mg
C) x (V,) x (vfl) x (V, = (Wi (Vi,) (Vi2)x.(%Soids)
where C = Concentration (mg a.i./L) as determined a.bove V, = Extraction Volume (100 mL) Vil = First Initial Volume (1 00 mL) Vi2 = Second Initial Volume (0.0500 mL)
Vfl = First Final Volume (200 mL) V a = Second Final Volume (50.0 rnL) W = Weight of extracted sample (10.0 g)
ConcentrationPFOS (mg a.i./kg) = 57.60 Percent of Nominal Concentration= PpFFOoSS((mm\ aa..i*iK./:K) innomsain:ml le x 100
