<strong>QATS</strong> <strong>SPECIAL</strong>-<strong>REQUEST</strong> & <strong>SITE</strong>-<strong>SPECIFIC</strong> <strong>PESs</strong><br />

REGION IX MONTROSE <strong>SITE</strong><br />

Special-request chloral hydrate soil <strong>PESs</strong> confirmed<br />

the presence of chloral hydrate at the site.<br />

<strong>QATS</strong> also developed a method for the extraction and<br />

analysis of chloral hydrate in soil.<br />

Presence of chloral hydrate resulted in the identification<br />

of a new responsible party (PRP).<br />

Large amount of chloroform at the site led to suspicion<br />

that breakdown of chloral hydrate was the cause – PES<br />

usage helped confirm this.<br />

Region was prepared to abandon efforts for chloral<br />

hydrate detection until provided with the <strong>PESs</strong> and<br />

method.<br />

Pesticide <strong>PESs</strong> with 2,4’-DDT, -DDD, and -DDE are now<br />

standard <strong>QATS</strong> <strong>PESs</strong> due to additional requests.<br />
