(For manufacturing and on

- site processing/use if applicable) SITE RELEASE AND TRANSFER INFORMATION

In this section , estimate the total media

- specific releases after on

- site treatment of

the chemical from your facility. You may estimate the releases by using monitoring data

or any other method you believe appropriate. Estimates should be reported in kgs per year for the reporting period. Enter the values as whole numbers to no more than two

significan t figures . For example, if your annual releases are estimated to be 12,360 kgs

, an estimate of 12,000 kgs should be reported

.

Estimate the number of days per year the release occurs. Enter a whole number

with a maximum of 2 significant figures.

Insert “ NA ” for release activities not associated with the chemical or “0” for

releases of less than 0.5 kgs per year.

For all releases, the source of data and/or basis for determination should be

described in detail. Suggested information about the possible sources/bas i s include s :

1. If the source/basis is an analytical measurement, then

**•** Describe the method (including analytical standards used, sampling,

sample treatment, analysis).

**•** Describe the uncertainties and assumptions made.

**•** G ive the Level of Detection (LOD) /Level of Quantification (LOQ)

.

2. If the source/basis is a mass balance, then

**•** Show the mass balance calculation.

**•** Show that the mass balance closes.

**•** If the mass balance does no t close, then report the fraction of to tal

feed stock that is not accounted for and the assumptions you made to

correct the balance. Describe the uncertainties.

3. If the source/basis is other than measurement or mass balance, then

**•** Describe the method used. For example, if engineering calculations are

used, give a general description and state your assumptions. Describe the

uncertainties.Part IV (cont.)

- SITE LAND RELEASES

Estimate the total releases of the chemical for each category of land disposal, if

applicable. Estimate only on

- site release s . Do not estimate leaks from landfills separately.

This should be accounted for in your estim ate of total landfill release.

Releases to land treatment/land amendment include all waste containing the

chemical that is applied or incorporated into soil on

- site. Do not include waste that is

landfilled.

Surface impoundments are natural topographic de pressions, man

- made

excavations, or diked are as formed primarily of earthen materials designed to hold an

accumulation of the chemical.

Underground injection is the technology of placing fluids underground, in porous

formations of rocks, through wells or other similar conveyance systems.

Other releases include any amount of the chemical that is released to land other

than those listed. An example is the accidental release of the chemical from an

underground pipeline or storage tank.

- 2 Reagents

Test substance, ammonium perfluorononanoate (APFN, 99.9%, S

- 111P, lot. JI020619)

was produced in Seimi Chemical (Kanagawa, Japan). The surrogate standard, 9

- hydrohex adecafluorononanoic acid (9H

- PFNA, 97.8%, lot. C58002501), were purchased from

Daikin Fine Chemical (Osaka, Japan). Distilled water was produced in

- house and checked for

contaminants by LC/MS before use. Distilled water was filtered through a pre

- column, P reclean

ORG (GL Sciences Inc. (Tokyo, Japan)) placed between HPLC pump and solvent mixing unit.

HPLC grade methanol, reagent grade ethanol, and reagent grade ammonium acetate were

purchased from Kanto Chemical Co., Inc.

In order to avoid contamination, di sposable lab ware (tubes, pipettes, etc) was used. 2 mmol/L

ammonium acetate aqueous solution was prepared for HPLC mobile phase.

A fortification standard containing appropriate amount of PFOA was pr epared using a

solvent (2 / 8 (wt) mixture of distilled water / ethanol). A surrogate standard containing 100

ng/ml 9H

One ml of t he sample was put in each of several vials. Appropriate amount of each

fortification standards of APFN was added into the vials. Five ml of ethanol was added into each

vials for the extraction by ultrasonic. Precipitate was separated by centrifugation or f iltration. 0.1

ml of each supernatant and 2 ml of surrogate standard were put in a vial and mixed well. A

portion of the solution was put into the auto

- sampler vial, and injected into LC/MS conditioned

as follows. The calculation of concentration in sample was conducted using standard addition

method.

(2) Waste water

Appropriate amount of the sample was put in each of several vials. Appropriate amount

of each fortification standards of APFN was added into the vials and shaken vigorously. The mixsolution w as appropriately diluted with the surrogate standard. A portion of the solution was put

Same as (2) Waste water.

(4) Waste C6H

One g of the sample was put in each of several vials. Appropriate amount of each

fortification standards of APFN were added into the vials. Ten ml of ethanol/water (1/1 (wt)) was

added into each vials for the extraction by shaking. The solution in ethanol/water layer was

appropriately diluted with the surrogate standard. A portion of the solution was put into the auto

sampler vial, and injected into LC/MS conditioned as follows. The calculation of conc entration

in sample was conducted using standard addition method.
