Estimates of the total load of PCBs in sediments will vary with the size and distribution of particles composing them The proportion of pore space (porosity) within a sediment is dependent on these parameters The porosity in turn determines the bulk densitv and hence weight of a particulate volume of sediment
An estimate of the porosity of inner New Bedford Harbor c_mdash was deshytermined based on the weight loss upon heating samples of the sediment overshynight at 110degC

Inasmuch as sediment PCB analyses are normally reported as dry weight the amount of dry sediment in inner New Bedford Harbor can be determined by similar calculations ignoring the density of seawater which fills the pore spaces of wet sediment Such calculations yield a bulk dry density of 052 gcm3 and a total weight of dry sediment of 115 x 106 tons
Assuming that the average concentration of PCB mixtures 1254 and 1242 (1016) in core NB84 SC5 (Table I ) are representative for the entire inner New Bedford Harbor to a depth of 50 cmthen the total load may be estimated by multiplying the dry weight concentrations (ppm) by the total dry weight of the sediment (Table 2 )
Three other laboratories (Mass Div Mar Fish Cat Cove Marine Lab Mass Dept Envir Qual Engineering Lawrence Experimental Station US Environmental Protection Agency Florida Lab) have previously reported a total of 28 analyses of 1254 mixture in inner New Bedford Harbor sediments Averages from the individual laboratories and an average of all 28 analyses are included in Table 2 for comparison

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400
Sincerely
Robert j Reimold PhD t Project Manager

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours
Louis L Gershman Laboratory Director Boston District Office

ATTENTION Mr James Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537

Estimates of the total load of PCBs in sediments will vary with the size and distribution of particles composing them The proportion of pore space (porosity) within a sediment is dependent on these parameters The porosity in turn determines the bulk densitv and hence weight of a particulate volume of sediment
An estimate of the porosity of inner New Bedford Harbor c_mdash was deshytermined based on the weight loss upon heating samples of the sediment overshynight at 110degC

Inasmuch as sediment PCB analyses are normally reported as dry weight the amount of dry sediment in inner New Bedford Harbor can be determined by similar calculations ignoring the density of seawater which fills the pore spaces of wet sediment Such calculations yield a bulk dry density of 052 gcm3 and a total weight of dry sediment of 115 x 106 tons
Assuming that the average concentration of PCB mixtures 1254 and 1242 (1016) in core NB84 SC5 (Table I ) are representative for the entire inner New Bedford Harbor to a depth of 50 cmthen the total load may be estimated by multiplying the dry weight concentrations (ppm) by the total dry weight of the sediment (Table 2 )
Three other laboratories (Mass Div Mar Fish Cat Cove Marine Lab Mass Dept Envir Qual Engineering Lawrence Experimental Station US Environmental Protection Agency Florida Lab) have previously reported a total of 28 analyses of 1254 mixture in inner New Bedford Harbor sediments Averages from the individual laboratories and an average of all 28 analyses are included in Table 2 for comparison

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours

Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537

Estimates of the total load of PCBs in sediments will vary with the size and distribution of particles composing them The proportion of pore space (porosity) within a sediment is dependent on these parameters The porosity in turn determines the bulk densitv and hence weight of a particulate volume of sediment
An estimate of the porosity of inner New Bedford Harbor c_mdash was deshytermined based on the weight loss upon heating samples of the sediment overshynight at 110degC

Inasmuch as sediment PCB analyses are normally reported as dry weight the amount of dry sediment in inner New Bedford Harbor can be determined by similar calculations ignoring the density of seawater which fills the pore spaces of wet sediment Such calculations yield a bulk dry density of 052 gcm3 and a total weight of dry sediment of 115 x 106 tons
Assuming that the average concentration of PCB mixtures 1254 and 1242 (1016) in core NB84 SC5 (Table I ) are representative for the entire inner New Bedford Harbor to a depth of 50 cmthen the total load may be estimated by multiplying the dry weight concentrations (ppm) by the total dry weight of the sediment (Table 2 )
Three other laboratories (Mass Div Mar Fish Cat Cove Marine Lab Mass Dept Envir Qual Engineering Lawrence Experimental Station US Environmental Protection Agency Florida Lab) have previously reported a total of 28 analyses of 1254 mixture in inner New Bedford Harbor sediments Averages from the individual laboratories and an average of all 28 analyses are included in Table 2 for comparison

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours

ATTENTION Mr James Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB
Sincerely
NorMari But terwo~rtl

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely

DATE October 3 1978 SUBJECT PCB Air Samples from the New Bedford Area
FROM Richard J Siscanaw Chemist
TO Edward L Taylor Chemistry Sectio
Thru Arthur E Chemist
The PCB samples were extracted with hexane and cleaned up ona micro-florisil column Two back-up florisil traps were used at the landfill site and downwind of the Aerovox plant to check for PCB breakthrough on the sample column None was found at the concentration range of 30-400 ngm3 A spike of 193 ng of PCB 1016 was added to sample 16 dried and extracted with the unknowns The recovery was 93 Two blanks were included in the analysis

Estimates of the total load of PCBs in sediments will vary with the size and distribution of particles composing them The proportion of pore space (porosity) within a sediment is dependent on these parameters The porosity in turn determines the bulk densitv and hence weight of a particulate volume of sediment
An estimate of the porosity of inner New Bedford Harbor c_mdash was deshytermined based on the weight loss upon heating samples of the sediment overshynight at 110degC

Inasmuch as sediment PCB analyses are normally reported as dry weight the amount of dry sediment in inner New Bedford Harbor can be determined by similar calculations ignoring the density of seawater which fills the pore spaces of wet sediment Such calculations yield a bulk dry density of 052 gcm3 and a total weight of dry sediment of 115 x 106 tons
Assuming that the average concentration of PCB mixtures 1254 and 1242 (1016) in core NB84 SC5 (Table I ) are representative for the entire inner New Bedford Harbor to a depth of 50 cmthen the total load may be estimated by multiplying the dry weight concentrations (ppm) by the total dry weight of the sediment (Table 2 )
Three other laboratories (Mass Div Mar Fish Cat Cove Marine Lab Mass Dept Envir Qual Engineering Lawrence Experimental Station US Environmental Protection Agency Florida Lab) have previously reported a total of 28 analyses of 1254 mixture in inner New Bedford Harbor sediments Averages from the individual laboratories and an average of all 28 analyses are included in Table 2 for comparison

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Mr Robert E Mendoza US Environmental Protection Agency Regionl Room 2203 J F Kennedy Federal Building Boston Massachusetts 02203
Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)

ATTENTION Mr James Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB
Sincerely
NorMari But terwo~rtl

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely

Estimates of the total load of PCBs in sediments will vary with the size and distribution of particles composing them The proportion of pore space (porosity) within a sediment is dependent on these parameters The porosity in turn determines the bulk densitv and hence weight of a particulate volume of sediment
An estimate of the porosity of inner New Bedford Harbor c_mdash was deshytermined based on the weight loss upon heating samples of the sediment overshynight at 110degC

Inasmuch as sediment PCB analyses are normally reported as dry weight the amount of dry sediment in inner New Bedford Harbor can be determined by similar calculations ignoring the density of seawater which fills the pore spaces of wet sediment Such calculations yield a bulk dry density of 052 gcm3 and a total weight of dry sediment of 115 x 106 tons
Assuming that the average concentration of PCB mixtures 1254 and 1242 (1016) in core NB84 SC5 (Table I ) are representative for the entire inner New Bedford Harbor to a depth of 50 cmthen the total load may be estimated by multiplying the dry weight concentrations (ppm) by the total dry weight of the sediment (Table 2 )
Three other laboratories (Mass Div Mar Fish Cat Cove Marine Lab Mass Dept Envir Qual Engineering Lawrence Experimental Station US Environmental Protection Agency Florida Lab) have previously reported a total of 28 analyses of 1254 mixture in inner New Bedford Harbor sediments Averages from the individual laboratories and an average of all 28 analyses are included in Table 2 for comparison

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries

Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400
Sincerely
Robert j Reimold PhD t Project Manager

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours

Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely
J( hn DerHovanesian PhD nior Chemist

Estimates of the total load of PCBs in sediments will vary with the size and distribution of particles composing them The proportion of pore space (porosity) within a sediment is dependent on these parameters The porosity in turn determines the bulk densitv and hence weight of a particulate volume of sediment
An estimate of the porosity of inner New Bedford Harbor c_mdash was deshytermined based on the weight loss upon heating samples of the sediment overshynight at 110degC

Inasmuch as sediment PCB analyses are normally reported as dry weight the amount of dry sediment in inner New Bedford Harbor can be determined by similar calculations ignoring the density of seawater which fills the pore spaces of wet sediment Such calculations yield a bulk dry density of 052 gcm3 and a total weight of dry sediment of 115 x 106 tons
Assuming that the average concentration of PCB mixtures 1254 and 1242 (1016) in core NB84 SC5 (Table I ) are representative for the entire inner New Bedford Harbor to a depth of 50 cmthen the total load may be estimated by multiplying the dry weight concentrations (ppm) by the total dry weight of the sediment (Table 2 )
Three other laboratories (Mass Div Mar Fish Cat Cove Marine Lab Mass Dept Envir Qual Engineering Lawrence Experimental Station US Environmental Protection Agency Florida Lab) have previously reported a total of 28 analyses of 1254 mixture in inner New Bedford Harbor sediments Averages from the individual laboratories and an average of all 28 analyses are included in Table 2 for comparison

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

The ash scum and sludge samples were found not to contain any of the above contamshyinants in concentrations equal to or greater than the EP Toxicity limits Thereshyfore these solid wastes do not exhibit the characteristic of EP Toxicity

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours

Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely

Estimates of the total load of PCBs in sediments will vary with the size and distribution of particles composing them The proportion of pore space (porosity) within a sediment is dependent on these parameters The porosity in turn determines the bulk densitv and hence weight of a particulate volume of sediment
An estimate of the porosity of inner New Bedford Harbor c_mdash was deshytermined based on the weight loss upon heating samples of the sediment overshynight at 110degC

Inasmuch as sediment PCB analyses are normally reported as dry weight the amount of dry sediment in inner New Bedford Harbor can be determined by similar calculations ignoring the density of seawater which fills the pore spaces of wet sediment Such calculations yield a bulk dry density of 052 gcm3 and a total weight of dry sediment of 115 x 106 tons
Assuming that the average concentration of PCB mixtures 1254 and 1242 (1016) in core NB84 SC5 (Table I ) are representative for the entire inner New Bedford Harbor to a depth of 50 cmthen the total load may be estimated by multiplying the dry weight concentrations (ppm) by the total dry weight of the sediment (Table 2 )
Three other laboratories (Mass Div Mar Fish Cat Cove Marine Lab Mass Dept Envir Qual Engineering Lawrence Experimental Station US Environmental Protection Agency Florida Lab) have previously reported a total of 28 analyses of 1254 mixture in inner New Bedford Harbor sediments Averages from the individual laboratories and an average of all 28 analyses are included in Table 2 for comparison

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours

Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely
J( hn DerHovanesian PhD nior Chemist

Estimates of the total load of PCBs in sediments will vary with the size and distribution of particles composing them The proportion of pore space (porosity) within a sediment is dependent on these parameters The porosity in turn determines the bulk densitv and hence weight of a particulate volume of sediment
An estimate of the porosity of inner New Bedford Harbor c_mdash was deshytermined based on the weight loss upon heating samples of the sediment overshynight at 110degC

Inasmuch as sediment PCB analyses are normally reported as dry weight the amount of dry sediment in inner New Bedford Harbor can be determined by similar calculations ignoring the density of seawater which fills the pore spaces of wet sediment Such calculations yield a bulk dry density of 052 gcm3 and a total weight of dry sediment of 115 x 106 tons
Assuming that the average concentration of PCB mixtures 1254 and 1242 (1016) in core NB84 SC5 (Table I ) are representative for the entire inner New Bedford Harbor to a depth of 50 cmthen the total load may be estimated by multiplying the dry weight concentrations (ppm) by the total dry weight of the sediment (Table 2 )
Three other laboratories (Mass Div Mar Fish Cat Cove Marine Lab Mass Dept Envir Qual Engineering Lawrence Experimental Station US Environmental Protection Agency Florida Lab) have previously reported a total of 28 analyses of 1254 mixture in inner New Bedford Harbor sediments Averages from the individual laboratories and an average of all 28 analyses are included in Table 2 for comparison

RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours

Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely
J( hn DerHovanesian PhD nior Chemist

Inasmuch as sediment PCB analyses are normally reported as dry weight the amount of dry sediment in inner New Bedford Harbor can be determined by similar calculations ignoring the density of seawater which fills the pore spaces of wet sediment Such calculations yield a bulk dry density of 052 gcm3 and a total weight of dry sediment of 115 x 106 tons
Assuming that the average concentration of PCB mixtures 1254 and 1242 (1016) in core NB84 SC5 (Table I ) are representative for the entire inner New Bedford Harbor to a depth of 50 cmthen the total load may be estimated by multiplying the dry weight concentrations (ppm) by the total dry weight of the sediment (Table 2 )
Three other laboratories (Mass Div Mar Fish Cat Cove Marine Lab Mass Dept Envir Qual Engineering Lawrence Experimental Station US Environmental Protection Agency Florida Lab) have previously reported a total of 28 analyses of 1254 mixture in inner New Bedford Harbor sediments Averages from the individual laboratories and an average of all 28 analyses are included in Table 2 for comparison

PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours

Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely
J( hn DerHovanesian PhD nior Chemist

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm

Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours

Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely
J( hn DerHovanesian PhD nior Chemist

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours

Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely
J( hn DerHovanesian PhD nior Chemist

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

The ash scum and sludge samples were found not to contain any of the above contamshyinants in concentrations equal to or greater than the EP Toxicity limits Thereshyfore these solid wastes do not exhibit the characteristic of EP Toxicity

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours

Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

The ash scum and sludge samples were found not to contain any of the above contamshyinants in concentrations equal to or greater than the EP Toxicity limits Thereshyfore these solid wastes do not exhibit the characteristic of EP Toxicity

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400
Sincerely

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours

Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely
J( hn DerHovanesian PhD nior Chemist

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours
Louis L Gershman Laboratory Director Boston District Office

ATTENTION Mr James Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely
J( hn DerHovanesian PhD nior Chemist

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Mr Robert E Mendoza US Environmental Protection Agency Regionl Room 2203 J F Kennedy Federal Building Boston Massachusetts 02203
Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded

ATTENTION Mr James Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB
Sincerely
NorMari But terwo~rtl

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely
J( hn DerHovanesian PhD nior Chemist

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours

ATTENTION Mr James Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB
Sincerely
NorMari But terwo~rtl

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely
J( hn DerHovanesian PhD nior Chemist

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours

Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely
J( hn DerHovanesian PhD nior Chemist

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Bruce W Tripp PhD Research Associate Department of Chemistry Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Woods Hole MA 02543
Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400
Sincerely
Robert j Reimold PhD t Project Manager

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours
Louis L Gershman Laboratory Director Boston District Office

ATTENTION Mr James Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB

Robert J Reimold PhD Project Manager Metealf amp Eddy Inc 50 Staniford Street Boston MA 02114
Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely
J( hn DerHovanesian PhD nior Chemist

Vcrsar INTRODUCTION
Versar received 27 sanples from US EPA Region I on November 17 1981 for
PCB analysis All samples were collected by Region I personnel and sent to
Versar via Delta Airlines All analytical work was performed in accordance with
the written work plan for Task IV2-81-02-06
Die methodology for the analysis is outlined below The Standard Versar Quality Control Program (SVQCP) was followed and the results discussed in the Quality Control Summary Section A description of the SVQCP is enclosed for
your convenience Appendix I contains copies of field and laboratory Chain-of Custody forms
RESULTS
The results for the analysis of 27 soil and sludge samples are tabulated
in Table 1 Three samples were found to be free of PCBs at the 1 ppm detection limit Out of the remaining samples 6 were guantitated between 1 ppm and 50
ppm 2 between 50 ppm and 500 ppm and the last 16 substantially higher than
500 ppm
METHODOLOGy
Soil1 Ten grams of soil were extracted with three 50 ml portions
11 acetonehexane The extracts were passed through a
Na2sdeg4 column and collected in a 250 ml Kuderna-Danish After the extract was concentrated to below 50 ml it was
transferred to a 100 ml volumetric flask and diluted to
the mark with hexane
At this point 5 ml of extract were pipetted on top of a
20 gram packed florisil column The aliquot was eluted
with 200 ml petroleum ether and concentrated to 5 ml One
ml was vialed for injection (2 yl) into a gas chromatograph
equipped with an electron capture detector

STANDARD VERSAR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Standard Versar Quality Control Program is included with each batch of samples A batch is a suitable number of samples to be analyzed at one tine The program consists of four QC audits which are treated with the same conditions as the samples The QC audits represent from 20-400 of the total number analyzed depending on the number of samples per batch The audits are
(1) Duplicate (2) Spiked Matrix (3) Method Standard (4) Method Blank
A sample is chosen randomly from the batch and split three ways labelled x y and z The x and y aliquots are analyzed as duplicates (QC Audit 1) The z aliquot and a blank sample (QC audits 2 and 3) are spiked with the parameter of interest at the concentration of interest The fourth QC audit is simply a blank treated as a sample
Versar calculates its laboratory precision and recovery as follows Precision - calculated from the duplicate sample and presented
as the relative percent difference
---b-x 100 (a + b)2
Pecovery - calculated from the spiked sample and the method standard and presented as the percent recovered
f xlOO
Where a - first value from sample x b - second value from sample y c - amount calculated d - amount spiked
Method blanks are calculated from the values obtained from instrument background and method interferences detected during analysis A value reported does not mean the parameter of interest was detected but it does reflect the lower limits of detection

Dear Bob
At long last we have completed filling in the missing information for the New Bedford Data Management System Please accept our apologies for its tarshydiness as due to funding curtailments we have had to stop working on New Bedshyford related projects We are applying for future grants and try to keep abreast of developments concerning the PCB problem However we are not preshysently engaged in any research concerning the problem If you are in need of further information please call and I promise to respond back faster than this last request you may contact either myself or Mr Bruce Tripp
Sincerely

Biological Samples
Collection
Finfish and bottom dwelling shellfish were captured by bottom trawling or capturing in cages while tidal shellfish were caught using procedures similar to those described in Farrington et al (1981) p 3 (enclosed) All samples were handled with equal care being wrapped in clean aluminum foil and frozen immediately at -20C to await analysis
Analytical Results
Detailed methodology (Farrington et al 1981) was developed as part of an EPA sponsored research and monitoring program (The Mussel Watch) Ve employed the Tear 3 extraction procedure (p 10) and column clean-up (p 11) as desshycribed in the report All analyses were performed in duplicate with lt 201 standard deviation between replicate samples Values reported are based on quantitation using packed column chromatography with recovery of internally spiked samples gt 801 Values reported are not corrected for recoveries
Sediment Particulate and Water Samples
Collection Results
Suspended particulate and water samples are collected using an all glass Bodroan bottle (Gagosian et al 1979) The water is immediately filtered through an all stainless steel system with the particulates being collected on 03 micron glass fiber filter and the water collected into a glass carboy Filters are frozen at -20C while water samples are immediately extracted by a single addition of methylene chloride and vigorously stirring Sediment trap samples are collected in an all metal sequencing sediment trap (Jannasch et al 1980) and filtered through 03 micron glass fiber filters and frozen at -20C Sediments were sampled either by a 01 m2 Van Veen grab sampler or a Soutar type box corer Samples were obtained by carefully subsampling the sediment avoiding any material which had contacted the sides of the sampling device
Analytical Results
Water samples were completely extracted with further partitioning into methylene chloride within 24 hrs Sediments and filters were Soxhlet extracted using acetonehexane (suggested EPA procedure) for 48 hrs Clean-up was simishylar to the biological samples with the addition of activated copper to remove elemental sulfur Quantitation was carried out on both packed column and capillary column EC-GC with recoveries of internally spiked standards gt 801 Selected samples were run on GCHS to confirm isomer identifications Occashysional samples were run in duplicate with the variation between replicates lt 201

Dear Dr Tripp
Thank you for your past assistance in sending us information on PCB analysis for the New Bedford PCB Data Management System which we have been developing under our USEPA contract
As you are probably aware this data base is currently being used by the EPA and the State Task Force to develop solutions related to PCB contamination in the Acushnet Estuary
EPA has recently directed us to apply the Data Evaluation Criteria which were discussed in our Phase 1 Report and at the Data Manageshyment System Demonstration on September 1 1982 At present certain information is needed to assist in completing this evaluation
^^s Enclosed is a copy of the summary of the Woods Hole PCB data which bull you sent us We would like to know the dates of analysis of these
samples In addition we are interested in obtaining the following information regarding the generation of these data
1 Methods and procedures used to collect samples
2 Method references including extraction methods and cleanup procedures for each type of sample (sediments aquatic biota etc)
3 Copies of quality control data for each study or series of samples
4 The manufacturer and model number of the gas chromatograph used
Any recent PCB data collected in the Acushnet Estuary area would also be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your attention to this request If you have any questions please feel free to contact our Analytical Chemist Mr Art Michelini at 367-4400

Attn Mr James T Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan
In response to the request to me dated April 26 1982 I have compared my records of our PCBs analyses (various isomers) performed on various samples over the last five (5) years with the data written on the computer print out sheet sent to me with the April 26 1982 letter I find no errors on your computer print out description of the analyses performed by our firm on our three (3) samples dated February 4 1980
For your information we collected a new set of four (4) shallow surface grab bottom sediment samples on April 22 1981 Two (2) of these four (4) 1981 samples were collected at the same locations as two (2) of the three (3) 1980 samples and the other two (2) samples were collected at new locations about fifty (50) feet north of the 1980 samples collection area These four (4) samples collectshyed on April 22 1981 were collected for the Fairhaven Marine Co as part of the same overall project as was collected the first set of samples collected on February 4 1980 (described above)
On each of the four (4) samples collected on April 22 1981 an EP Toxicity Test solution was prepared per the procedure specified under the Federal RCRA (Fed Register Vol 45 98 dated May 19 1980) The analysis of each of the April 22 1981 sample solutions was performed in a Massachusetts DEQE Approved Laboratory for PCBs analytical work

Mr Robert E Mendoza US Environmental Protection Agency Regionl Room 2203 J F Kennedy Federal Building Boston Massachusetts 02203
Dear Mr Mendoza
This is in response to your letter of April 26 1982 which requested certain information regarding our analyses of lobsters collected from New Bedford Harbor for PCBs We have reviewed our records and have the following comments in reply to the five items noted in your request
1 This item lists 15 samples which were collected on various dates The numbers listed appear to be State of Mass sample identification numbers (from specific locations in New Bedford Harbor eg 3-SS) however none of the numbers listed match the state identification tag numbers submitted to our laboratory Although they are similar the samples analyzed by our lab did not have a numerical prefix before the letters Therefore we are not sure whether these specific numbers were analyzed by our Boston District Laboratory
Since the state agencies did not submit any collection report records to us along with the samples we_do not know the exact dates of collection of any of the samples This information would have to be obtained from the agencies that collected the samples However we do know the dates that we received the samples which we analyzed When they were received by our Boston District Laboratory they contained only a state identification tag number All of these samples were immediately assigned an FDA sample number (eg 81-253-946)
In answer to your question as to whether the units are in wet weight or dry weight all of Boston Districts analytical results for PCBs are on a wet weight basis

Incorrectly listed on your letter as 80_-159-301 to 80-159-305
Method of Analysis (Revised 1979)
Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) Vol I Sections 21213(a) 21214(d) with modification Elute with 150 ml Petroleum Ether prior to the 6 Ethyl Ether Petroleum Ether elution step
Preparation of Samples
Fresh or frozen whole lobsters are placed in steam cabinet or autoclave and steamed for 20-30 minutes (depending on whether fresh or frozen) Edible portion of lobster meat (including tamale) is picked from the lobster The edible meat and tamale is composited with a Hobart meat grinder This ground composite is then used for the analysis The shell and inedible portions are discarded
-3shy
For your information we have enclosed a list of lobster samples (Attachment A) which were collected by state agencies from the New Bedford Harbor area and subsequently analyzed by our Boston District laboratory This list contains the FDA sample numbers the state identification tag numbers (as received in Boston District lab) the dates received and our lab results
If we can be of any further assistance please feel free to contact my office
Sincerely yours

ATTENTION Mr James Maughan
Dear Mr Maughan bull shy shy - - -lt- shy mdash shy
We are contacting you at the request of Mr Robert Mendoza of the EPA relative to the PCB data your company has accumulated for the New Bedford area
A review of the data sheet sent to us would indicate that you have captured all of the data submitted by us to EPA etc to date We were unable to add any missing parameters
We are enclosing an additional (11) analytical sheets for other samples we have had analyzed Six relate to discharges to the City Sewer system two to our emergency discharge pipe to the Acushnet River two to incoming water levels and one to a liquid sample taken from mid-river in back of Aerovox The groups are stapled together and prominently identified
We hope these will assist in obtainance of your comprehensive overview of the New Bedford PCB
Sincerely
NorMari But terwo~rtl

Dear Dr Reimold
In response to your letter of November 5 1982 please find enclosed your forms marked in with references to the various laboratory reports included as attachments
The procedures that we follow are those in the US POA Pesticide Analytical Manual The gas chromatograph used is a Tracer Model MT 220 Detection limits for arochlor depend to an extent on available sample and sample matrix type but in general are below 01 ppm Quality control measures included replication of samples spiking and recovery studies
All of our samples from the New Bedford area were collected by the Division of Marine Fisheries biologists under the direction of Mr Piske Questions about the collection of specific samples should be directed to him at the Division of Marine Fisheries 449 Route 6A East Sandwich MA 02537
Sincerely
