Aqua GeoServices Ltd. 1 / 5 Rpt 119-15

I INTRODUCTION Following up on the recommendations made in Aqua Geoservices Ltd. (AGS) report No. 118-15 (dated October 2015), AGS were requested by Ferguson Environmental Services Ltd., on behalf of their client IPSEN Manufacturing Ireland Ltd. (IMIL), to resample the two wells where low levels of Glycerol MonoStearate (GMS) were detected in the Semi-Volatile Organic Compounds (sVOC) Tentatively identified Compounds (TIC) analysis. The following report details the monitoring carried out by AGS on the 12th of November 2015 and the subsequent analyses performed by Jones Environmental Laboratory Ltd. (JEL) in the United Kingdom (UK).

I.1 Scope of Work The scope of work consisted of the sampling and analysis of 2 monitoring wells (MW-1, MW-2) that showed low levels of glycerol monostearate duringthe monitoring undertaken on the 02/09/15. All the monitoring wells are located within the IMIL Compound (Cf. Figure 01). The samples were analysed for sVOC TIC to heck for the presence of GMS. The assessment and reporting took place following receipt of the analytical results from the laboratory. They consist of the following elements:

• Document the methodology of the monitoring; • Compile and analyse the data gathered during the site visit; • Present the investigation findings, assess the trend of the groundwater quality in each monitoring

well and provide the results in their environmental context.

I.2 Methodology The methodology followed the guidance set out in BS ISO 5667-22:2010 (Water Quality. Sampling guidance on the design and installation of groundwater monitoring points) and consisted of the following:

I.2.1 Well purging In order to fill the sampling bottles with groundwater samples representative of the groundwater formation, each monitoring well was extensively purged prior to the sample collection. This allowed the removal of stale well water. Purging was carried out using the following equipment:

• a Waterra Power Pack PP1 and associated High Flow inertial pump tubing and valves; • a 2” submersible pump with tubing and valves; • a hand held High Flow inertial pump tubing and valves.

During the purging, field parameters (Temperature, pH, Conductivity) were also monitored using a field monitoring kit (Hanna Instrument 9828). MW2 ran dry during the purging and was allowed to recover partially prior to take a sample. MW1 was purged over than three times its volume of water. It was sampled after the field chemistry parameters had stabilised.

I.2.2 Groundwater sampling The sampling was carried out in strict accordance with the best practices available. Due to the necessity of sampling semi-Volatile Organic Compounds (sVOC), it was necessary to take the following precautions:

• Use of a hydrasleeve™ sampling method so as to minimise turbulence and avoid any contact with air;

• Separate, dedicated bailer and/or High Flow inertial pump tubing and valves were used; • Use of dedicated sampling bottles (PTFE capped glass bottles for organic) provided by the

laboratory according to the determinands to be analysed. • Use of a cool box and ice packs keeping a temperature of <4oC.

I.2.3 Groundwater Analysis Groundwater analysis was carried out in accordance with Schedule 4(ii) Groundwater Monitoring of IED Licence Number P0117-01 and amended on the 23/05/07 under Section S96(1) of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Acts, 1992 and 2003. All the samples were stored in an electrical cool box refrigerated at 4oC during the sampling. They were then transferred in a coolbox with icepacks and collected on-site by DHL, on behalf of JEL. The two groundwater samples were analysed for the following parameters:

• Semi-Volatile Organic Compounds & Tentatively Identified Compounds. Full details of the analysis are provided in the Appendix of this report.

I.3 Project Team Aqua-GeoServices Ltd. project team for this work consisted of:

• EurGeol Bruno Teillard, PGeo, M.Sc. Hydrogeology – Desk Study & Reporting. Bruno is a qualified Hydrogeologist with over 18 years of experience in Ireland and abroad.

I.4 Assessment and Reporting The assessment and reporting took place following completion of laboratory analysis. They consist of the following elements:

• Documentation of the study methodology; • Presentation the study findings; • Compilation and analysis of the data gathered; • Preparation of a comprehensive report, production of 2 copies.

II. SITE LOCATION The IMIL site is located in an industrial park in Blanchardstown, Dublin 15 (Cf. Figure 01). It is positioned at National Grid Reference E310850-N231675 in the Ordnance Survey Discovery Series Map Sheet No. 50. It is bounded by Snugborough Road to the West, the Regional Road R843 to the North, a grass field to the East, a car park to the South.

III. GROUNDWATER QUALITY The following tables summarize the results of the Field Measurements and the Analytical Results. Full details of the analytical results are provided in the Appendix.

III.1 Legislation In the absence of published criteria for good groundwater chemical status, the results obtained were compared the European Communities Environmental Objectives (Groundwater) Regulations, 2010 (Statutory Instrument No. 9 of 2010). These Regulations establish a comprehensive system of water quality and quantity objectives for all bodies of groundwater and thereby provide a basis for systems of control for achieving those groundwater objectives, taking into account the requirements of the Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) and the Groundwater Directive (2006/118/EC). The Threshold Values are based on the assessment of the general quality of groundwater in a groundwater body in terms of whether its ability to support human uses has been significantly impaired by pollution. Where there are no Threshold Values (TV) for a parameter the results are compared to the Interim Guideline Values (IGVs) “Interim report towards setting guideline values for the protection of groundwater in Ireland”, published by the EPA in June 2003. These IGVs are to be used to assist with the characterisation of groundwater bodies and to establish the need for additional investigation or further action in the event of the guideline values being exceeded. Where there are no EPA IGV’s available (i.e. VOC and sVOC values), the analytical results are compared and discussed with reference to the Dutch Target and Intervention Values (VROM 2000 and subsequent amendments). Using the Dutch criteria the degree of contamination is assessed using the following guidelines:

• S-Value: The Dutch S-Value is a target concentration and is generally considered to represent typical uncontaminated/background values for groundwater.

• I-Value: The Dutch Intervention Value is a level above which the need for further investigation assessment or remediation is indicated (which should take into account site-specific conditions).

Both human and environmental impairment are considered in the development of the guidelines. The Dutch values are only used for guideline purposes in this country as they have no statutory basis outside the Netherlands. However, the Dutch guidelines are generally considered to be one of the most advanced set of generic criteria available, and they are widely accepted by the environmental industry and by the Irish regulatory authorities.

III.2 Field Parameters These parameters were measured directly on site prior to the filling of the sample containers using standard calibrated field equipment. The parameters are summarised below.

Colour Grey tint Clear Light grey tint Light grey tint

Table 4.1 Summary of Field Measurements, IMIL, Dublin 15 (02/09/15) The pH readings recorded at the well head were within the EPA IGV range of 6.5-9.5. At the end of the purging (i.e., when the field parameters stabilised), the pH results were consistent with the previous monitoring rounds. Typical groundwater temperatures range from 10ºC - 12ºC. Upon stabilisation, the groundwater temperatures recorded on the day of sampling ranged from 10.63ºC in MW-2 to 12.78ºC in MW-1. These temperatures remained consistent with the observed value in the previous round of monitoring. Upon stabilisation of the parameter, the recorded conductivity readings were all below S.I. No.9 of 2010 lower limit (800µS/cm) of the Threshold Value range (800 µS/cm – 1,875 µS/cm). As with the observations made in the previous rounds of monitoring, each of the two groundwater samples had a grey (MW-1) to light grey (MW-2) with no odour detected in any of the wells.

III.3 Semi-volatile Organic Compounds (SVOCs) The results for SVOCs are presented in Table 3.3 of this report. For all of the samples analysed, no compounds were detected at levels above their respective laboratory detection limits, which is the same as the previous monitoring rounds. Since AGS’s started the monitoring in 2013, the LoD were further improved by up to a factor 100 for most of the SVOCs. However, some LoD still remain above the relevant threshold or guideline value for their respective parameters. They are:

• Phenols: Although the LoD further improved in 2014 from 0.01mg/l to 0.001mg/l, the LoD from the laboratory still remains above the TV of S.I. No. 9 of 2010 (0.0005mg/l) for this parameter.

• Hexachlorobutadiene: Its LoD remains unchanged (0.001mg/l) since 2013 and is above the TV of SI No. 9 of 2010 (0.0001mg/l),

• Benzo(a)pyrene: Although the LoD improved by a factor 10 since 2013, it still remains above the T.V of SI No. 9 of 2010 and the Dutch Guideline values;

• Hexachlorobenzene, Benzo(bk)fluoranthene and benzo(ghi)perylene: their respective LoD remain unchanged since 2013 and are above both the T.V of SI No. 9 of 2010 and the Dutch Guideline values;

• Indeno(123cd)pyrene): its LoD improved by a factor 10 since the 2013 monitoring but it remains above the Dutch Guideline Value for this parameter (there are no TV of SI No. 9 of 2010 for this parameter).

III.4 Semi-volatile Organic Compounds (SVOCs) TICs In the SVOC analysis when tentatively identified compounds (TICs) are required, the mass spectra of any compounds detected in the sample that are not in the SVOC list are compared to those in the reference library of compounds contained within the GCMS software. For a positive identification of a compound, “The quality match of the mass spectrum of this compound, when compared to the mass spectra contained in the GCMS library, should meet or exceed the Laboratory acceptance criteria of >80% quality match” (Source: Jones Environmental Laboratory). No deviating sample was recorded as part of the analysis undertaken by JEL on the 12/11/15. As a result, GMS was not detected in any of the samples.

IV. CONCLUSIONS The results of the sVOC analysis were all below the detection limit of the laboratory instrument used, which is consistent with the previous rounds of monitoring undertaken at the site by AGS. No deviating sample was recorded as part of the TIC analysis during this round of monitoring. As a result, glycerol monostearate (GMS) was not detected. Based on the above and the upgradient location of MW-1, the presence of GMS in MW-1 and MW-2 during the round of monitoring of September 2015 may be attributed to a punctual source of contamination located of-site.

V. RECOMMENDATIONS Based on the good sVOC and TIC results at MW-1 and MW-2 during this round of monitoring, no further action is warranted at present.

SOILS

DEVIATING SAMPLES

SURROGATES

DILUTIONS

NOTE

It is assumed that you have taken representative samples on site and require analysis on a representative subsample. Stones will generally be

included unless we are requested to remove them.

ISO17025 (UKAS) accreditation applies to surface water and groundwater and one other matrix which is analysis specific, any other liquids are

outside our scope of accreditation.

As surface waters require different sample preparation to groundwaters the laboratory must be informed of the water type when submitting samples.

Where appropriate please make sure that our detection limits are suitable for your needs, if they are not, please notify us immediately.

NOTES TO ACCOMPANY ALL SCHEDULES AND REPORTS

Please note we are only MCERTS accredited (UK soils only) for sand, loam and clay and any other matrix is outside our scope of accreditation.

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.

15/16359

WATERS

Data is only reported if the laboratory is confident that the data is a true reflection of the samples analysed. Data is only reported as accredited when

all the requirements of our Quality System have been met. In certain circumstances where all the requirements of the Quality System have not been

met, for instance if the associated AQC has failed, the reason is fully investigated and documented. The sample data is then evaluated alongside

the other quality control checks performed during analysis to determine its suitability. Following this evaluation, provided the sample results have not

been effected, the data is reported but accreditation is removed. It is a UKAS requirement for data not reported as accredited to be considered

indicative only, but this does not mean the data is not valid.

Where possible, and if requested, samples will be re-extracted and a revised report issued with accredited results. Please do not hesitate to contact

the laboratory if further details are required of the circumstances which have led to the removal of accreditation.

Where an MCERTS report has been requested, you will be notified within 48 hours of any samples that have been identified as being outside our

MCERTS scope. As validation has been performed on clay, sand and loam, only samples that are predominantly these matrices, or combinations

of them will be within our MCERTS scope. If samples are not one of a combination of the above matrices they will not be marked as MCERTS

accredited.

Negative Neutralization Potential (NP) values are obtained when the volume of NaOH (0.1N) titrated (pH 8.3) is greater than the volume of HCl (1N)

to reduce the pH of the sample to 2.0 - 2.5. Any negative NP values are corrected to 0.

Where a CEN 10:1 ZERO Headspace VOC test has been carried out, a 10:1 ratio of water to wet (as received) soil has been used.

All samples will be discarded one month after the date of reporting, unless we are instructed to the contrary.

Surrogate compounds are added during the preparation process to monitor recovery of analytes. However low recovery in soils is often due to peat,

clay or other organic rich matrices. For waters this can be due to oxidants, surfactants, organic rich sediments or remediation fluids. Acceptable

limits for most organic methods are 70 - 130% and for VOCs are 50 - 150%. When surrogate recoveries are outside the performance criteria but

the associated AQC passes this is assumed to be due to matrix effect. Results are not surrogate corrected.

A dilution suffix indicates a dilution has been performed and the reported result takes this into account. No further calculation is required.

If you have not already done so, please send us a purchase order if this is required by your company.

% Asbestos in Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs) is determined by reference to HSG 264 The Survey Guide - Appendix 2 : ACMs in buildings

listed in order of ease of fibre release.

All analysis is reported on a dry weight basis unless stated otherwise. Results are not surrogate corrected. Samples are dried at 35°C ±5°C unless

otherwise stated. Moisture content for CEN Leachate tests are dried at 105°C ±5°C.

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.

Please note we are not a UK Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI) Approved Laboratory .

Samples must be received in a condition appropriate to the requested analyses. All samples should be submitted to the laboratory in suitable

containers with sufficient ice packs to sustain an appropriate temperature for the requested analysis. If this is not the case you will be informed and

any test results that may be compromised highlighted on your deviating samples report.
