2 Role of Science in NRDA Who is responsible for the release? (liability) What was released (e.g., hazardous substances, oil)? Where did the contamination go? (pathway) When did the release(s) occur? (timing) What was exposed? (confirmation of exposure) What injuries occurred? What natural resource services were lost and what is the value of those losses? (injury and damage assessment) How can the injuries and service losses be restored? (restoration planning) Abt Associates pg 2
3 Role of Science in NRDA Recent Scientific Developments in Natural Resource Injury Assessment and Quantification Emerging Contaminants Emerging Effects Evolving Methods Abt Associates pg 3
4 Emerging Contaminants Abt Associates pg 4
5 Example: Perfluorochemicals (PFCs) (aka PFASs) Human-made persistent organic compounds Used to make products that resist heat, stains, oil, and water (i.e., non-stick, stain-resistant and waterproof ) Used in textiles and leather products, metal plating, the photographic industry, semi-conductors, paper and packaging, coating additives, cleaning products, and pesticides (U.S. EPA 2014) Fire-fighting foam (for petroleum-based fuels) used at oil refineries, airfields Abt Associates pg 5
6 PFCs PFCs present in blood of people and animals world-wide. Increasing awareness of PFC persistence and mobility Increasing data from toxicity studies, particularly for widely-produced PFOA (Perfluorooctanoic acid) and PFOS (Perfluorooctyl sulfonate) Less known about toxicity of other PFCs. Abt Associates pg 6
7 PFCs Lack of scientific agreement on health effects. Information from studies of laboratory animals and epidemiological studies of humans exposed. Studies finding potential links to bladder and kidney cancer, immunotoxicity in children, risks to developing fetuses and infants Manufacturers (e.g., 3M) argue PFCs have never been proven to cause harm to humans at environmental concentrations. Some researchers concerned by risks to sensitive populations at very low concentrations (parts per trillion levels, less than a drop of food dye in a 1000 Olympic size swimming pools) Increasing litigation over human health effects and natural resource damages from PFC releases Abt Associates pg 7
8 PFCs PFC water contamination sites and public water supplies with PFC detections. Source: Northeastern University Social Science Environmental Health Research Institute data, map by EWG Abt Associates pg 8
9 PFCs Drinking water advisories/health risk limits EPA 2009 MN 2009/2011 EPA 2016 MN 2017 PFOA [ng/l] PFOS [ng/l] Proposed MCL NJ= 14 ng/l for PFOA; DW advisories VT = 20 ng/l for PFOA and PFOS Abt Associates pg 9
10 PFCs Potential effect of criteria on extent of injured groundwater and affected wells PFOA > 400 ng/l PFOA > 35 ng/l Abt Associates pg 10
11 PFCs Fish Consumption Advisories for PFOS Accumulates in fish Biological resource injury definition [43 CFR 11.62(f)(1)(ii) and (iii)] Meal advice categories based on levels of PFOS in fish Level of PFOS in fish [ng/g, or parts per billion (ppb)] Meal frequency 40 Unrestricted > 40 to meal/week > 200 to meal/month > 800 Do not eat Source: Minnesota Department of Health, Abt Associates pg 11
12 PFCs NRDA issues Baseline (i.e., absent the release ) issues: Background concentration in environment (water, biota)? Multiple sources? PFCs not on CERCLA Hazardous Substances List (state law may allow definition as hazardous substance/waste) EPA has not set enforceable drinking water MCLs under SDWA Scientific research ongoing to understand effects on human health and environment. Abt Associates pg 12
13 PFCs Potential injury assessment consequences of states/feds lowering guidelines for PFOA and PFOS New or additional concerns about specific drinking water sources Increased spatial/temporal extent of exposed/injured resources Increased concerns about pathways to other resources Impact on FCAs Abt Associates pg 13
14 PFCs The future for injury assessment for PFC contamination? Minnesota s NRDA litigation against 3M at Cottage Grove for injuries to groundwater, surface water, sediment and aquatic life. Identification of new locations with PFC concentrations creating public, state, and federal concerns Increasing class action and NRDA litigation Abt Associates pg 14
15 Emerging Effects Abt Associates pg 15

23 Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Surface oiling ~100,000 km 2 Potential influence of UV enhanced toxicity on organisms near surface and in shallow water. Abt Associates pg 23

26 Photo-induced Toxicity Conclusions We observed direct photo-sensitization of oil in all invertebrate and vertebrate species tested We observed increased oil toxicity in UV-irradiated oil-water mixtures suggesting photo-modification UV-enhanced oil toxicity has important implications when evaluating environmental exposures and quantifying injuries to PAHs Abt Associates pg 26
27 Evolving Methods Abt Associates pg 27
28 NRDA ephemeral data collection Ephemeral data time-sensitive data collected to study the environmental impacts of a spill/release Abt Associates pg 28
29 NRDA ephemeral data collection considerations Data collection opportunities and needed evidence may be lost if response slow or unprepared Response teams don t have same goals as teams collecting NRDA data Yellowstone River Oil Spill; Source: NY Times, 7/2/2011 Abt Associates pg 29
30 NRDA ephemeral data collection- State Needs Collect high-priority litigation-quality data to assess exposure, quantify injury for state resources. Don t rely entirely on federal agencies Previously-prepared guidance documents and SOPs for collection of litigation-quality ephemeral data in state-relevant habitats and natural resources Methods to allow field staff to target exposed areas Sufficient trained staff (state and/or contractor) who can respond quickly and competently Abt Associates pg 30
31 NRDA ephemeral data collection Remote Sensing Tools Satellite images, aerial overflights, drones Better target sampling of areas exposed to oil/contaminant releases Collect images/data that can be used to qualitatively or quantitatively support injury assessment Abt Associates pg 31
32 NRDA ephemeral data collection NRDA Lessons Learned/Post-Audit Evaluate data quality and use to improve collection in future spills/releases Improve training and guidance documents Abt Associates pg 32
33 Summary Future NRDA injury assessments may want to consider emerging contaminants, include new information on toxic effects, and work to improve ephemeral data collection methods Questions? Abt Associates pg 33
