These documents are analytical reports from TestAmerica Laboratories, Inc. for environmental testing of digester sludge samples from the Collier County Board of County Commissioners' G.G. Sludge/Golden Gate Plant and N.E. Sludge/N.E. Plant. The reports detail comprehensive laboratory analyses of solid sludge samples collected in October and November 2018, testing for various metals (including arsenic, cadmium, copper, and zinc), volatile and semivolatile organic compounds, mercury, nitrogen, phosphorus, and other chemical parameters. The samples were analyzed using multiple methods including Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP), Cold Vapor Atomic Absorption (CVAA), and Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) techniques.

The laboratory reports include detailed quality control measurements, spike recoveries, method detection limits, and qualifiers indicating whether compounds were detected or not detected. The tests were performed to assess the chemical composition and potential environmental impacts of the digester sludge, with most analytes falling within acceptable regulatory limits. The documentation demonstrates rigorous scientific testing protocols, with each sample undergoing multiple analytical methods and quality checks. TestAmerica Savannah, located in Georgia, conducted these tests and is accredited by the Florida NELAP (National Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program) with an EPA Region 4 certification valid through June 30, 2019.
