About this file

This file is a technical specification document listing test method references for laboratory analytical services, issued by the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) as part of RFP-25-81029. The document provides a comprehensive list of 59 standardized testing methods and reference materials that must be followed for analyzing fish tissues and sediment samples, including methods from the American Public Health Association, American Society for Testing and Materials, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and other authoritative sources.

The references cover a wide range of analytical procedures for detecting and measuring various substances including metals, organic compounds, PCBs, cyanide, mercury, arsenic, and PFAS in environmental samples. The document specifically highlights current versions of methods, with the most recent being the 2024 EPA Method 1633A for PFAS analysis and the 2023 Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater (24th Edition). This technical specification appears to be a supporting document that establishes the required testing methodology standards for the broader laboratory services contract.
