oz. jar and submitted to an accredited sub-contract laboratory for analysis by Total PCBs (EPA Method 8082).

Based on laboratory analytical results, analyte concentrations in the tested materials DID NOT EXCEED the standards for hazardous waste referenced in Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 261 (40 CFR 261).

Sample Collection:

Sampling was carried out in a carefully controlled manner in order to ensure the validity of the sampling results.

The samples were collected into new, clean sample containers, and precautions were taken in order to avoid cross contamination of samples and to keep track of sampling locations. The measurements and locations of the samples collected were recorded on a chain of custody and submitted to a laboratory accredited by the New York State Department of Health NELAC. All sample analysis was conducted in accordance with EPA Method 8082.

Sample Results:

Based on laboratory analytical results, analyte concentrations in the tested materials DID NOT EXCEED the standards for hazardous waste referenced in Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 261 (40 CFR 261).

All detailed analytical results can be found in Phoenix Environmental Laborites report ID: CG08049
