About this file
This document is a multi-page analytical report detailing environmental sampling conducted after a lithium battery fire at the Niagara Falls Air Reserve Station (NFAB) Building 700. On June 15, 2024, AFI Environmental collected four samples (three wipe samples and one sediment sample) from different locations within the building, including the entrance floor, random floor area, wall, and floor trench drain. The samples were analyzed by Alpha Analytical for total metals using EPA-approved methods.
Key findings include metal concentrations detected in the samples, with notable results in the sediment sample (B-700-4 Drain): arsenic at 5.10 mg/kg, barium at 352 mg/kg, chromium at 65.8 mg/kg, lead at 69.8 mg/kg, and silver at 0.515 mg/kg. The laboratory report includes detailed quality control data, method blanks, matrix spike analyses, and duplicate sample tests to ensure analytical accuracy. The report was prepared with a quick turnaround time of 72 hours and signed off by the technical director on June 19, 2024, likely to support the ongoing building repair and remediation efforts referenced in the related federal contract opportunity.

Case Narrative
The samples were received in accordance with the Chain of Custody and no significant deviations were encountered during the preparation or analysis unless otherwise noted. Sample Receipt, Container Information, and the Chain of Custody are located at the back of the report.
Results contained within this report relate only to the samples submitted under this Alpha Lab Number and meet NELAP requirements for all
NELAP accredited parameters unless otherwise noted in the following narrative. The data presented in this report is organized by parameter
(i.e. VOC, SVOC, etc.). Sample specific Quality Control data (i.e. Surrogate Spike Recovery) is reported at the end of the target analyte list for each individual sample, followed by the Laboratory Batch Quality Control at the end of each parameter. Tentatively Identified
Compounds (TICs), if requested, are reported for compounds identified to be present and are not part of the method/program Target
Compound List, even if only a subset of the TCL are being reported. If a sample was re-analyzed or re-extracted due to a required quality control corrective action and if both sets of data are reported, the Laboratory ID of the re-analysis or re-extraction is designated with an "R" or "RE", respectively.
When multiple Batch Quality Control elements are reported (e.g. more than one LCS), the associated samples for each element are noted in the grey shaded header line of each data table. Any Laboratory Batch, Sample Specific % recovery or RPD value that is outside the listed
Acceptance Criteria is bolded in the report. In reference to questions H (CAM) or 4 (RCP) when "NO" is checked, the performance criteria for CAM and RCP methods allow for some quality control failures to occur and still be within method compliance. In these instances, the specific failure is not narrated but noted in the associated QC Outlier Summary Report, located directly after the Case Narrative. QC information is also incorporated in the Data Usability Assessment table (Format 11) of our Data Merger tool, where it can be reviewed in conjunction with the sample result, associated regulatory criteria and any associated data usability implications.
Soil/sediments, solids and tissues are reported on a dry weight basis unless otherwise noted. Definitions of all data qualifiers and acronyms used in this report are provided in the Glossary located at the back of the report.
HOLD POLICY - For samples submitted on hold, Alpha's policy is to hold samples (with the exception of Air canisters) free of charge for 21 calendar days from the date the project is completed. After 21 calendar days, we will dispose of all samples submitted including those put on hold unless you have contacted your Alpha Project Manager and made arrangements for Alpha to continue to hold the samples. Air canisters will be disposed after 3 business days from the date the project is completed.
Please contact Project Management at 800-624-9220 with any questions.

Report Submission
All non-detect (ND) or estimated concentrations (J-qualified) have been quantitated to the limit noted in the
MDL column.
Total Metals
L2434073-01, -02, and -04: The sample has elevated detection limits for all elements, with the exception of mercury, due to the dilution required by the sample matrix.
The WG1936048-3 MS recoveries, performed on L2434073-04, are outside the acceptance criteria for barium
(146%), chromium (171%) and lead (129%). A post digestion spike was performed and was within acceptance criteria.
I, the undersigned, attest under the pains and penalties of perjury that, to the best of my knowledge and belief and based upon my personal inquiry of those responsible for providing the information contained in this analytical report, such information is accurate and complete.
