passivated canisters, Tedlar bags and solid adsorbent media; analysis of speciated reduce sulfur compounds; analysis of carbonyl compounds e.g. formaldehyde and other aldehydes sampled with DNPH tubes and impingers; analysis of pesticides, PCBs, PAHs and other semivolatile compounds, collected using high volume and t low volume polyurethane foam (PUF) and PUF/XAD-2 traps and modified Method 5 sampling trains; analysis of phenols and cresols by HPLC; analysis of atmospheric gases; and determination of BTU heat content. The laboratory maintains an 4 inventory of almost 1,000 pre-cleaned passivated stainless steel canisters, low i volume flow controllers, vacuum gauges, and a wide assortment of sampling media. r i CAS/Simi Valley performs a wide variety of specialized tests including the analysis i of by-products of natural attenuation/intrinsic bioremediation; compliance testing for the pulp and paper industry; measurement of thermal decomposition products from aviation and hydraulic fluids for the aerospace industry; landfill compliance tests and I J material off-gas testing of building materials, commercial and consumer products. The laboratory also conducts product evaluations in a 1000 cubic foot testing room. i Our air laboratory maintains a separate offsite extraction laboratory. The purpose of this facility is to minimize the use of volatile solvents and other chemicals at the analytical laboratory facility, thereby enabling the laboratory to achieve low parts per I billion or parts per trillion detection of volatile organic compounds in a contaminant- free environment. I CAS/Canoga Park, California provides a full range of environmental testing services from its two fixed laboratory facilities. The main facility houses all analytical and support services while a separate extraction laboratory minimizes possibility of solvent cross- contamination of environmental samples. The laboratory routinely provides results within ten working days of sample receipt. Client assigned and dedicated Project Chemists actively work with clients to reserve capacity for rush work and other special project requirements. CAS/Canoga Park can customize report and electronic deliverables to suit the special reporting requirements of various federal, state, and local regulatory agencies including the COELT electronic data format required by the California State Water Resources Board for LUFT sites. In j addition to Navy work, several other large volume commercial projects have required full raw data packages for data validation by an independent, third party data validation I firm. I Services are provided in support of Superfund sites, landfills, groundwater monitoring and remediation, site assessments, industrial wastewater discharge under POTW or Page 5 of 29 i
