SUMMARY:RCRA Compliance at Cleanup Sites: Onsite Management of Remediation Waste
DESCRIPTION:This free webinar covered what waste site cleanup staff and managers need to know about how to ensure compliance with RCRA regarding onsite management of remediation waste. It was the third in a four-part series taking place in the fall of 2019 and winter 2020. The presenters were Ross Bunnell\, CT DEEP and Martin Sanchez\, NJ DEP. Mr. Bunnell and Mr. Sanchez are long time RCRA inspectors and program managers with experience addressing contaminated waste sites. In developing their presentations\, they worked with colleagues from the other states in the Northeast to make sure the information applies to all of the states in the region. \n \nRoss Bunnell’s PowerPoint Slides \nMartin Sanchez’s PowerPoint Slides

SUMMARY:EPA's Aerosol Can Universal Waste Rule
DESCRIPTION:In late 2019\, EPA announced the signing of its final Aerosol Can Rule. The final Rule adds hazardous waste aerosol cans to the list of universal wastes regulated under 40 CFR part 273. The universal waste regulations encompass protective requirements for facilities generating\, handling\, and transporting certain categories of hazardous waste that are commonly generated by a wide variety of establishments. It incorporates flexibilities\, such as additional time to accumulate these wastes. By providing a clear\, practical system for handling discarded aerosol cans\, this change will reduce the regulatory costs for a wide variety of establishments generating and managing aerosol cans\, including the retail sector. The streamlined standards are also expected to promote the collection and recycling of aerosol cans. The webinar presentations by EPA Headquarters staff covered the requirements under the Rule and their benefits. \n \nPowerPoint Slides

SUMMARY:PFAS: Results of Fish Tissue Studies in New Jersey & New York
DESCRIPTION:This webinar included the following presentations: \nJesse Becker\, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation\nPFAS in New York State Fish: 2010 – 2018 [PDF] \nSandra Goodrow\, New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection\nInvestigation of Levels of Perfluorinated Compounds in New Jersey Fish\, Sediment\, and Surface Water [PDF]  \nNew Jersey and New York recently conducted fish tissue studies in order to understand the prevalence of poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the environment and the risk it might pose to the public. \nJesse Becker\, NYSDEC presented PFAS in New York State Fish\, 2010 – 2018 and shared the results of several fish tissue studies performed in New York; and for more recent efforts\, the relation to locations with PFAS releases. \nSandra Goodrow\, NJ DEP presented the results of a statewide targeted fish tissue study that included the evaluation of the PFAS concentration of sediment and surface water at the fish collection sites. These results were used to evaluate the extent of known site contamination and ultimately led to the issuance of fish consumption advisories in New Jersey.

SUMMARY:PFAS: Vermont's Soil Background Study & Transformation of Poly-fluoroalkyl Substances in the Environment
DESCRIPTION:The webinar included the following presentations: \nDr. Wenyu Zhu\, University of Vermont\nPFAS Surface Soil Background Study [PDF] – note: this file is large (>20MB)] – and link to the report\, PFAS Background in Vermont Shallow Soils [PDF] \nDr. Jennifer Field\, Oregon State University\nFate – Biotransformation [PDF] – slides excerpted from an Interstate Technology and Regulatory Council (ITRC) presentation \nDr. Field referenced several articles during Q&A:\n– Will Backe’s paper that shows our analysis of 3M AFFF (Table S6) and fluorotelomer AFFF (Table S5).  The fluorotelomer species have only linear chains.\n– In the article by Buck on p. 19 \, there are branched PFCSs made by a variation of the telomer process. This telomer processes\, which results in C9\, C11\, and C13 PFCAs\, may be used in only some applications – for example\, I have not seen an AFFF enriched in these odd number long-chain PFCAs.\n– For landfill leachate composition\, refer to Table 2  in the reference from Allred\, B.M.\, Lang\, J.R.\, Barlaz\, M.A.\, Field\, J.A. 2014.  Orthogonal zirconium diol/C18 LC-MS/MS analysis of poly and perfluoroalkyl substances in landfill leachate.  J Chromatography A\, 1359\, 202-211.  Copyrighted by Elsevier \nWenyu Zhu\, Post Doctorial Associate\, University of Vermont presented the results of a surface soil background study conducted by the University of Vermont and Sanborn\, Head\, and Associates\, with support from the Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC). Surface soil samples were collected from 66 locations across Vermont in the summer of 2018 and analyzed for 17 PFAS compounds. Dr. Zhu will present the project activities and methodologies\, the analytical results\, and next steps. \nDr. Jennifer Field\, Professor\, Oregon State University presented on the biological transformation of poly-fluoroalkyl substances in the environment – what we know we know and what we know we don’t know. Dr. Field is an internationally recognized expert and her PFAS research interests are particularly focused on AFFF and on landfill leachate.

SUMMARY:PFAS: Sampling Challenges in the Field & Michigan's Industrial Pre-treatment Program Initiative Webinar
DESCRIPTION:This webinar included the following presentations: \nJon Russell\, Michigan Department of Environmental Quality\nMichigan’s IPP PFAS Initiative [PDF] – and a listing of MI DEQ PFAS online resources [PDF] \nElizabeth Denly\, TRC\nPFAS Sampling Challenges [PDF] – note: some of the slides presented on the webinar are not included in this posted version. \nJon Russell\, Field Operations Section\, Water Resources Division\, Michigan DEQ. Mr. Russell is the Water Resources Division lead with the Michigan PFAS Action Response Team (MPART) and presented on Michigan’s Industrial Pre-treatment Program (IPP) PFAS Initiative. In February 2018\, the MI DEQ launched the IPP PFAS Initiative\, requiring all municipal wastewater treatment plants with required IPPs to find out whether they may be passing through PFOS and/or PFOA to surface waters and reduce and eliminate any sources if found. The MDEQ is working closely with municipal and industry groups to reduce and eliminate or control sources of PFOS and PFOA as they are found. Jon presented an overview of the IPP PFAS Initiative and its findings\, including their work on biosolids management. \nElizabeth Denly\, ASQ CMQ/OE\, Quality Assurance & Chemistry Director\, TRC presented PFAS Sampling Challenges in the Field. The potential for cross-contamination becomes even more crucial with PFAS than other chemicals because the regulatory criteria for PFAS are in the parts per trillion (ppt)/nanograms per liter (ng/L) range.  Ms. Denly addressed the rules for sampling PFAS in different media and recommendations for proper field quality control (QC) requirements. In addition\, she presented the results of a study performed by TRC and Alpha Analytical on the different PFAS constituents that can be transferred from common sampling materials and the relative concentrations of these PFAS in each of the tested materials.

SUMMARY:PFAS: Assessing Laboratory Data Quality
DESCRIPTION:The webinar included the following presentation: \nDr. Nancy Rothman\, New Environmental Horizons\nPFAS: Assessing Laboratory Data Quality [PDF] \nThe drinking water health advisories and standards for several poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are 70 parts per trillion and lower. Detection at such low levels presents many challenges in the field and in the laboratory and can lead to difficulties in data quality assessment and usability. \nNancy C. Rothman\, Ph.D.\, CEO & Principal Scientist\, New Environmental Horizons\, Inc. presented Analytical Issues Affecting PFAS Data Quality. Building upon the “PFAS Sampling Challenges” presentation\, the practical aspect of reviewing PFAS data for accuracy\, precision\, sensitivity\, and representativeness will be discussed. An example PFAS report was reviewed to demonstrate to users exactly what to look for when deciding if the data are able to be used for project decisions. Specific issues\, limitations\, and interferences in PFAS data were addressed along with the key factors affecting analytical accuracy of PFAS compounds in various types of media. Issues related to comparison of data from one laboratory to another and from one sampling event to another were addressed so that data users can make informed decisions about their projects.
