Invitation For Bids (IFB) No. 24-00015
Fish Food for WDFW Hatcheries - Statewide
Appendix H - PCB Testing Report
Polychlorinated biphenyls, commonly known as PCBs, are a family of human-made organic chemicals that were used in many industrial and commercial products such as insulating fluids for electric transformers and capacitors, hydraulic fluids, plasticizers, paint additives, lubricants, inks, caulk, and carbonless copy paper. PCBs are also found in products as an unintentional by-product of manufacturing processes. PCBs are ubiquitous in the environment because of their stability, extensive previous use, by-production in manufacturing, inadvertent release, and the inability to control and eliminate them through current waste management practices. PCBs have been shown to cause cancer and affect the human immune, reproductive, nervous, and endocrine systems. PCBs are persistent, bio accumulative, and toxic, and they cycle between the air, soil, and water.
Provide the following information for each product identified in your company's completed Appendix C (Vendor's Price Sheet).
(a) The name of the product (should match the name provided in Appendix C)
(b) Indicate if the product has been testing for PCB (Yes or No).
(c) If the product has been tested for PCBs, provide the month and year of the latest test.
(d) If the product has been tested for PCBs, provide the method of testing (such as EPA Analytical Method 1668c).
(e) Indicate if the testing results determined that PCBs were present in the product.
(f) If PCBs were present in the product, indicate the level of PCBs present in parts per million.
Add additional rows as necessary.
(a) Product Name(b) Tested? (Yes/No)(c) If Yes, latest month/year tested(d) Method of Testing Used(e) PCBs found? (Yes/No)(f) If Yes, results (ppm)
