L" <br />J <br />I <br />] <br />L� <br />J <br />7 <br />Kelso has a dedicated Drinking Water laboratory, which was developed in order to <br />service the growing need for clean water and the associated testing required to verify <br />purity. CAS has been performing drinking water testing since 1989 for inorganic and <br />volatile organic compounds. The expansion into full service testing, including all of the <br />regulated and unregulated compounds of concern allows Kelso to support clients <br />nationwide. <br />A few of the more advanced analytical techniques employed at CAS/Kelso include <br />specialized sample preparation, ultra -trace PAHs and alkylated homologs analyses, <br />GC/ECD analysis for individual PCB congeners, isotope dilution for volatile and <br />semivolatile organics, ultra -trace organotin speciation, pore water sample preparations <br />and analyses, clean room techniques for ultra -trace metals, advanced chemical <br />separations for ultra -trace metals, purge and trap atomic fluorescence for ultra -trace <br />mercury, specialized inorganic testing (e.g., chromium reducible sulfur, microbially <br />reducible iron, etc.), explosives testing, and numerous other procedures which have <br />been developed for specific applications and projects. <br />CAS/Redding, California occupies over 17,000 square feet of space. The <br />laboratory specializes in high-end data deliverable packages (i.e. CLP, AFCEE and <br />CLP -like deliverables) for federal (AFCEE, ACOS, Navy, EPA,) and private sector <br />clients. The advanced data management and reporting systems the laboratory uses <br />provides the capability to produce custom, comprehensive electronic data <br />deliverables. Much of the federal client work CAS/Redding performs is routinely <br />validated by third party validation companies. <br />I <br />E <br />0 <br />C <br />0 <br />CAS/Redding's laboratory also contains a soil science laboratory to support our <br />agricultural, physical, mining and exploration and production clients. <br />CAS/Simi Valley, California is a nationally recognized air -testing laboratory that <br />specializes in the analysis of ambient and indoor air pollution, stationary source <br />emissions, process gas and industrial hygiene samples. The laboratory has <br />performed testing on projects for clients in all the U.S. States, Puerto Rico, Guam <br />and several other countries. In addition, CAS/Simi Valley has provided analytical <br />support to colleges and universities located throughout the United States. CAS/Simi <br />Valley is accredited by the American Industrial Hygiene Association. <br />Routine tests performed by the laboratory include: analysis of microbial volatile <br />organic compounds (MVOCs) and speciated hydrocarbons in SUMMA® and Silco <br />Page 4 of 29 <br />
