Site Summary
Location, site history, and previous investigations summarized with maps and coordinates to provide context for sampling locations and potential PFAS sources.
A clear PFAS report provides defensible data for compliance, informs risk-management decisions, documents due diligence for property transactions, and supports remediation planning while reducing liability exposure.
Typical preparers and primary audiences for PFAS reports include environmental consultants, laboratories, regulatory offices, and property owners.
Roles may overlap: labs provide data, consultants interpret findings, and legal or compliance teams act on regulatory obligations.
Location, site history, and previous investigations summarized with maps and coordinates to provide context for sampling locations and potential PFAS sources.
Detailed description of sample types, locations, depths, collection methods, preservative and holding-time procedures, and field quality-control samples such as blanks and duplicates.
Complete chain-of-custody records linking sample IDs, collection dates/times, handlers, and shipment details to ensure data integrity and legal defensibility.
Laboratory reports with method references (EPA methods, LC-MS/MS details), reporting limits, quantified PFAS concentrations, and flagged nondetects or estimated values.
Evaluation of laboratory QC, method blanks, surrogate recoveries, and holding times with conclusions about data usability and limitations.
Comparison to applicable screening or regulatory values, risk conclusions, recommended follow-up actions, and a prioritized remediation or monitoring plan.
| Field mapping and data capture settings | Map PDF/Word fields to database columns for structured reporting and data exports. |
|---|---|
| Document upload and file-format options | Accept PDF, DOCX, and lab CSV exports; require PDF/A archival for final reports. |
| Signer roles and review routing | Define roles for preparer, reviewer, lab certifier, and responsible officer; enforce sequential approvals. |
| Authentication and signer verification | Use email or SMS codes and attach signed audit trail records for legal defensibility. |
| Retention and archival configuration | Store final reports with metadata, encrypted at rest, and retain per retention schedule requirements. |
Confirm the file formats, integrations, and authentication methods required by your laboratory and the receiving regulator before submission.
Ensure integrations preserve metadata and the audit trail; choose storage with AES-256 encryption and secure access controls.
Schedule within project plan; weather can cause delays.
Typically 5–14 business days depending on method and lab workload.
Allow 3–7 business days for technical checks and QA/QC.
State review times vary widely; confirm expected turnaround with agency.
If required, follow state deadlines for notifications.
Field team collects samples and begins chain-of-custody process.
Lab returns raw and validated data with QC metrics.
Consultant compiles interpretation, maps, and recommendations.
Submit via required portal and respond to agency comments.
