2004 Dioxin Monitoring in Fish Tissue -REVISED
Waterville Reservoir Special Water Quality Sample Results
Blue Ridge Paper Products, Inc.
Canton, NC
Dear Mr. Haynes -
The subject report dated December 2004 was submitted on 5 January 2005 in accordance with
permit conditions. This study, required by our NPDES permit, consists of annual sampling of
fish at specific sites in the Pigeon River and analysis of those fish for dioxin. Fish collection for
2004 took place in August.
Dr. Luanne Williams of the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS),
Occupational and Environmental Epidemiology Branch was included in the distribution of the
original report. Dr. Williams requested changes to the report regarding the presentation of
detection limit values and to correct an error regarding the NC DHHS action level for dioxin in
fish. The original report incorrectly stated the action level as 3 ppt. The correct, current NC
DHHS dioxin fish tissue action level is 4 ppt. The revised report dated February 2005 is
enclosed. The changes do not alter the substance or conclusions of the original report.
EA Engineering Science and Technology completed fish collection and the report. They also
made the report revisions requested by Dr. Williams. Fish collection followed the December
2001 monitoring plan approved by DENR. Severn Trent Laboratories completed the dioxin
analyses. The 2004 fieldwork included biannual water quality samples collected from the
Waterville reservoir in accordance with Condition A.12 of the NPDES permit. The Waterville

Subject corrections to August-September 2004 Blue Ridge Dioxin
Monitoring in Fish Tissue Report
I have reviewed the December 2004 Blue Ridge Dioxin Monitoring in Fish
Tissue Report. There are a few corrections that should be made for
future reports. The corrections are listed below.
* On page 6-1, sixth paragraph, the NC DHHs dioxin fish tissue
action level is incorrectly stated as 3 ppt. The NC DHHS dioxin
fish tissue action level is 4 ppt. The first and second sentence
in the sixth paragraph should be replaced with the following
language " The NC DHHS recommends an average toxicity equivalent
(TEQ) level of 3 ppt in fish tissue fillets. The NC DHHS issues
dioxin fish tissue advisories at an average toxicity equivalent
level of 4 ppt. "
* On page 6-4, first paragraph, the NC DHHS dioxin fish tissue
action level is incorrectly stated as 3 ppt. The NC DHHS dioxin
fish tissue action level should be correctly stated as 4 ppt.
* Table 6-3 incorrectly reports the chlorinated dioxin and furan
results. Instead of reporting non-detect under the results
column, the detection limits for the individual congeners were
reported. It is confusing to the reader to report the detection
limits in the results column and then report 0.000 in the TEQ
column. For future reporting, indicate non-detect or ND in the
results column if the congener was not detected.
The advisory for carp should continue for the Walters Lake or Waterville
Reservoir because 2003 carp sampling showed average TEQ level above the
action level of 4 ppt. In addition, the 2004 average toxicity
equivalent (TEQ) levels for carp (2 .22 and 2.49 ppt) were below the
action level of 4 ppt but the average weight sampled of 3 .9 kg is
significantly lower than the average weight sampled from 1999-2003 of
5.042 kg. The average TEQ level for carp weighing more than 3.9 kg is
likely to be higher than the action level of 4 ppt.
Please do not hesitate to email me or call me if you have any questions
at 919-715-6429.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Bottom feeding species were collected in 2004 from six locations in the Pigeon River and
analyzed for 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzofuran
- (TCDF), and other CDD and CDF isomers. TCDD and TCDF concentrations in fillet
composites from bottom feeders were very low (range=non-detected to 1.0 ppt) at the three
riverine locations downstream of the mill. Bottom feeders used at these locations were
common carp, black redhorse, and channel catfish. TCDD concentrations in bottom feeder
fillet composites at the two Waterville Lake locations were 1.7 ppt and 1.6 ppt (Stations 4A
and 4B, respectively) for carp and non-detect for flathead catfish (Station 4A) and channel
r catfish (Station 4B). Since 1990, TCDD concentrations in common carp fillets have declined
dramatically (94-99 percent) at all downstream stations (Figure ES-1).

1. INTRODUCTION
This report details the results of a study conducted during 2004 to determine the
concentrations of 2,3,7,8-TCDD (dioxin) and 2,3,7,8-TCDF (furan) in bottom-feeding fish
collected from the Pigeon River near Canton, North Carolina. The study described herein is
number 15 in a series of fish tissue surveys designed and conducted to be completely
responsive to the requirements of A.(9.) Dioxin Monitoring Special Condition in Blue Ridge
Paper's current NPDES permit for the Canton Mill (Permit No. NC0000272). Sampling
locations, selection of target species, sampling methods, and sample preparation/preservation
techniques are in accordance with the study plan (EA 2001a). The approved study methods
and scope detailed herein generally follow those used since 1990 (EA 1990, 1991, 1992,
1993a, 1993b, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2000, 2001b, 2001c, 2003, and 2004).
However, selected project details were modified to be responsive to the
suggestions/recommendations of the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (NC DENR), the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency, U.S. EPA Region IV, and
the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (NC DHHS). The principal
change in the program was that the collection and analysis of sportfish composite samples have
not been required since 2000.
The 2004 study was conducted during 31 August — 2 September, during which time biologists
— from EA collected and prepared fish tissue samples from six sampling locations on the Pigeon
River.
Details relevant to the location of Pigeon River sampling stations and fish tissue sampling
objectives follow in Sections 2 and 3, respectively. Fish collection techniques and level of
effort are detailed in Section 4; methods of sample preparation and shipment are presented in
Section 5. Analytical results are summarized in Section 6 and references are provided in
Section 7.

2. SAMPLING LOCATIONS
In accordance with the study plan (EA 2001 a), fish were collected from six locations on the
Pigeon River. Five monitoring stations were located downstream from the Canton Mill outfall
- (four in North Carolina and one in Tennessee) and one control or background site was located
upstream of it. Detailed sampling station information is provided in Table 2-1 and Figure 2-1.
Station 1, the background site,is located at Pigeon River Mile(RM) 64.5, approximately 1.2 RM
upstream from the Canton Mill outfall (Figures 2-1 and 2-2). Fish were collected from the river
reach adjacent to the Canton Recreational Park(located upstream from the city of Canton).
Except under extremely high flows, the Canton Mill dam blocks the movement of fishes and
thereby prevents the interaction of control and downstream monitoring station fishes.
Monitoring Station 2 is located upstream from Clyde,North Carolina at RM 59.0, approximately
4.3 RM downstream from the Canton Mill outfall (Figures 2-1 and 2-3). Station 3 is 11.0 RM
downstream from the outfall (RM 52.3), in the vicinity of the old Rt. 209 Bridge(Figures 2-1 and
2-4). Monitoring stations 4A and 4B are located in Waterville Lake at RM 41.5 and 39.0,
respectively(Figure 2-1). Station 4A is located approximately 21.8 RM downstream from the
Mill outfall,near the Messer Branch-Pigeon River confluence(Figure 2-5). Monitoring Station
4B is in the vicinity of the Wilkins Creek-Pigeon River confluence, approximately 24.3 RM
downstream from the Canton Mill outfall (Figure 2-6). Station 5 is located near Bluffton,
Tennessee at RM 19.0, approximately 44.3 RM downstream from the Mill outfall and about 6
miles downstream of the CP&L Hydro site(Figures 2-1 and 2-7). Sampling stations were
separated by at least 5.5 RM(with the exception of the Waterville Lake stations which are only
2.5 RM apart). Appropriate habitats were sampled within each study reach in an effort to collect
the desired complement of fishes.
Fish sampling was conducted in the vicinity of each location described above,however, the
distance or effort at each station depended on how difficult it was to collect fish at that station.
At Station 1, an approximate 0.1 RM reach was sampled which was centered on the bridge by the
city park. The Station 2 sample reach was approximately 0.2 RM in length and was adjacent to a
sharp bend along Old Thickety Road. The Station 3 sample reach extended approximately 0.2
RM,just upstream of the old Rt. 209 Bridge. An approximate 0.4 RM reach of Waterville Lake
was sampled adjacent to and upstream of the Messer Branch-Pigeon River confluence. The
Station 4B study area consisted of a 1.0 RM reach of Waterville Lake located near the Wilkins
Creek-Pigeon River confluence. Sampling at Stations 4A and 4B included gillnetting near the
shore along both the left and right banks of Waterville Lake. A large pool just upstream of the I-
40 Bridge was sampled at Location 5.

3. SAMPLING OBJECTIVES
In accordance with the study plan (EA 2001a), the goal of the fish collection effort was to
collect one composite bottom feeder fillet sample at each of the six sampling stations. Each
composite consisted of 5 similarly sized (shortest specimen within 75%of the length of the
longest) adult individuals of the target species. Common carp (Cyprfnus carpio) was the target
species at Stations 2, 3, 4A, and 4B. Common carp are absent at Stations 1 and 5, so at these
stations, black redhorse(Moxostoma duquesnet) was the target bottom feeder. In addition, one
' additional fillet composite sample using flathead catfish was collected at Station 4A (Waterville
Lake) and additional fillet composite samples using channel catfish were collected at Stations 4B
(Waterville Lake) and 2 (upstream of Clyde).
In addition to the fillet composites, a whole body composite consisting of 5 similarly sized
common carp was collected at Station 4A in Waterville Lake.
In summary, fish were collected as follows:
• Bottom feeder fillet composite—one sample at all six stations
• Catfish fillet composite—one sample at Stations 2,4A, and 4B
Common carp whole body composite—one sample from Station 4A
In addition to locations 2, 4A, and 413,the study plan called for the collection of a catfish fillet
composite sample at Station 3, if specimens were encountered. However, no specimens were
encountered at this location in 2004. In fact, a composite sample has never been submitted for
analysis from Station 3; and 2004 represents the first year that a composite sample of catfish was
collected and submitted for analysis from Location 2.
Every reasonable effort was made to collect the desired size, species, and/or number of fish,
however, the outcome of the sampling effort each year is dependent on physical river
conditions and the natural diversity and abundance of target fishes at each sampling location.
The 2004 Pigeon River collections yielded the desired species at each sampling station. In
addition, the number of specimens collected made it possible to composite individuals of
similar weight and length (with larger/adult specimens preferred), and the 75 percent rule was
met for all samples.

4. FISH COLLECTION TECHNIQUES AND LEVEL OF EFFORT
Sampling was conducted during 31 August — 2 September 2004. Notes were recorded at each
sampling station with regard to the type of sampling gear, level of effort (time), and habitat
(Table 4-1). Surface water temperature measurements at each riverine location are summarized
below:
Station RM Date Team C
1 64.5 9/2 18.6
2 59.0 9/1 23.9
3 52.3 8/31 25.1
5 19.0 9/1 21.2
All fish submitted for tissue analysis were measured to the nearest millimeter (total length) and
weighed to the nearest gram (wet weight). These data are summarized in Table 4-2. In an
effort to keep the size of the carp submitted for analysis from Waterville Lake consistent
among years, only those carp that were within one standard deviation of the mean size of carp
submitted for analysis from 1993 through 2003 were retained. The mean size of carp
submitted for analysis during this period was 618 mm and only those fish within one standard
deviation (i.e., 567-669 mm) of that mean were analyzed in 2004 (Table 4-2).
The field investigators were equipped with an array of collecting gear, which enabled sampling
of all habitats regardless of river conditions. U.S. EPA recommends active methods of fish
collection in their Sampling Guidance Manual (Versar 1984), such as electrofishing, trawling,
angling, or seining. These methods are preferred over passive methods (e.g., gill nets, trap
nets, trotlines) because the collection period is typically shorter (i.e., hours versus days--
thereby minimizing decomposition), and because samples are collected from more definable
areas (Versar 1984). Eeectrofishing was used at all stations, except 4A and 4B (Waterville
Lake), where gill nets were necessary because of water depth. A boat electrofishing unit
(pulsed direct current) was used to sample fish at Stations 1, 2, 3 and 5. The boat
electrofisher was equipped with a Smith Root Type VIA electrofisher, and powered by a 240-
volt 5000W generator. Electrofishin techniques followed those described in the National
g g 4
Dioxin Study (Versar 1984).
Fish collection techniques and level of effort (time) expended at each of the six stations are
summarized in Table 4-1. Total study effort involved —1.4 electrofishing-hours and —161 net-
hours. Total electrofishing duration (energized time) was 20, 35, 6, and 25 minutes at
Stations 1, 2, 3, and 5, respectively.

Target species were collected at all sampling stations in 2004. Common carp, the target
bottom feeder at stations 2, 3, 4A, and 4B, were collected (and prepared for fillet and/or
whole body analysis) at those stations. In addition, the preferred target bottom feeding species
(black redhorse) was collected from Stations 1 and 5. The physiography of the Waterville
Lake Stations 4A and 4B necessitated the use of gill nets for the collection of bottom feeding
_ species. All nets were pulled and examined on a regular basis to reduce stress or specimen
mortality. All specimens submitted for analysis appeared healthy and in good condition.
Lengths and weights for each fish making up each composite are provided in Table 4-2.
Bottom feeder fillet composites consisted of five black redhorse at Stations 1 and 5 and five
common carp at Stations 2, 3, 4A, and 4B. In addition, a second bottom feeder fillet
-- composite, consisting of five channel catfish, was prepared for analysis from Stations 2 and
4B. A bottom feeder fillet composite, consisting of five flathead catfish, was also prepared for
analysis from Station 4A. A single bottom feeder whole body composite consisting of five
common carp from Station 4A was prepared for analysis (Table 4-2).
All ten composites submitted for analysis in 2004 met the US EPA Region IV recommendation
(Cunningham 1990) that the smallest specimen in each composite be equal to or greater than
- 75 percent of the total length of the largest specimen in that composite (Tables 4-2 and 6-4).

5. SAMPLE PREPARATION
All fish tissue samples were prepared in accordance with U.S. EPA Region IV
recommendations (Cunningham 1990) as described in EA (2001a). To prevent
cross-contamination between sampling stations, all sampling equipment likely to come into
contact with the fish was rinsed extensively with site water between stations.
Specimens collected at each station were sorted by size and species, and target species were
identified. The objective was to obtain a 3 to 5-fish composite sample at each station (plus a
catfish composite for each station in Waterville Lake [and if present, from Stations 2 and/or 3]
as well as a common carp whole body composite from either station in Waterville Lake),
which met the species and size objectives discussed in Section 3. From the target fishes
collected, specimens of similar length and weight were selected for each composite sample.
All specimens retained were immediately placed on ice for later processing. For each fish
retained, length and weight data were collected and recorded on the appropriate fisheries data
sheet.
Following identification of target organisms, selection of composite samples, and collection of
length/weight data, each specimen was prepared for shipment and analysis. Bottom feeder
fillet samples consisted of epaxial muscle tissue and skin from one side of the fish. Bottom
feeder whole body samples consisted of the entire fish. Fillet samples were prepared by
removing the scales (or removing skin from catfishes) and then making an incision behind the
opercula (on both sides of the fish) from the base of the spine (behind the skull) to just below
the pectoral fin. Care was taken to cut through the epaxial muscle without puncturing the rib
cage or gut lining. A second incision was made along the length of the spine to the caudal fin
on both sides of the fish. The epaxial muscle was then gently cut away from the rib cage to
obtain a fillet. In this fashion, all flesh and skin was obtained from head to tail on both sides
of the fish. Fillet knives were solvent rinsed (hexane and acetone) between fish from different
stations. Each composite sample was wrapped in aluminum foil (dull side toward sample),
labeled, and placed on dry ice. Right side fillets were sent to Severn Trent Laboratory for
analysis; left side fillets were retained by Blue Ridge personnel as back-up fillets.
All individual specimens (fillets or whole bodies) composing a single composite sample were
placed together in a water-tight plastic bag labeled with the station name, sample number, and
the number of specimens in that composite. All labels contained the following information:
• sample identification number,
• sample location and station identification,
sampling team initials,
date of sample collection,
• species name,
sample type (i.e., fillet or whole body)
5-1

A chain-of-custody form was filled out for each cooler of samples submitted for analysis.
Each form included composite-specific information and instructions. Copies of all
chain-of-custody records are provided in Appendix A.
All samples were frozen solid prior to shipment to the analytical laboratory. The frozen
samples were packed on dry ice, shipped via overnight delivery on 7 September and were
received, still frozen, at Severn Trent Laboratory - Sacramento on 8 September 2004.

- 6. ANALYTICAL RESULTS
The fish tissue samples were received at Severn Trent Laboratory (STL) - Sacramento,
California under chain-of-custody on 8 September 2004. Once received at the laboratory,
samples were compared to the chain-of-custody record to verify the contents of each shipping
container. Each individual fish or fillet within a composite was homogenized separately by
STL personnel, and equal aliquots of the homogenate from each fish were removed to
constitute the composite. Dioxin and furan analyses were performed using high resolution Gas
Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GS/MS) as required by the U.S. EPA. Laboratory
documentation of all chemical extractions and analyses are provided in Appendix B. All
chemical analyses of the samples were conducted using EPA Method 8290 (U.S. EPA 1994)
as specified in the Canton Mill NPDES permit.
The quality of the analytical results was assured through reproducible calibration and testing of
the extractions and GC/MS systems. A laboratory method blank was prepared along with each
batch of samples. The laboratory also used precision and recovery standards for determination
of initial and ongoing precision and accuracy.
Laboratory reports for all 2004 Pigeon River fish tissue dioxin, furan, and lipid content
analyses are provided in Appendix B. Each laboratory analysis report form lists the
concentration of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzofuran
(TCDF), and all other CDD/CDF isomers. Results of the dioxin, furan, and lipid content
analyses are summarized in Table 6-1. Detection limits are reported parenthetically on a
sample-specific basis. Only fillet results are discussed below because NC DHHS considers
only fillet results when issuing health advisories.
Concentrations of 2,3,7,8-TCDD in bottom feeder composite fillet samples were below the
level of detection at Stations 1, 2, 3, 4A (flathead catfish), 4B (channel catfish), and 5 (Table
6-1). Concentrations of 2,3,7,8-TCDD were detectable only in common carp composite fillet
samples from Stations 4A (1.7 ppt) and 413 (1.6 ppt). Furan isomer (2,3,7,8-TCDF) analysis
results indicated a concentration range from non-detect [Stations 1, 2 (channel catfish), 4A
(flathead catfish), and 4B (channel catfish)] to 2.2 ppt (common carp at Station 413).
Examination of the data in Table 6-1 indicates that all fish collected during this study had body
burdens well below the FDA dioxin health advisory level (25 ppt) for fish tissue [as
established and presented in FDA (1981 and 1983) and Cordle (1983)].
The NC DHHS recommends an average toxicity equivalent (TEQ) level of 3 ppt in fish tissue
fillets. The NC DHHS issues dioxin fish tissue advisories at an average toxicity equivalent
level of 4 ppt (e-mail correspondence with Dr. Luanne Williams 18 January 2005). The TEQ
of each chlorodibenzo dioxin and furan (CDD/F) isomer is based on the toxicity equivalence
factor (TEF) (WHO 1997 and Table 6-2) as described in the 2001 Study Plan (EA 2001b).
The TEQ value is calculated assuming additivity of effects from the individual congeners of
dioxins and furans and is expressed as an "equivalent amount of 2,3,7,8-TCDD" (NC
DEHNR 1991). The measured concentration of each CDD/F isomer, when multiplied by its

appropriate TEF, yields the TEQ of that isomer (the toxic concentration of that isomer relative
to the toxicity of 2,3,7,8-TCDD). In cases where CDD/F concentrations were below the level
of detection, a value of zero was used in the TEQ calculation.
The TEQ calculation and summarization schemes presented in Table 6-3 followed methods
used by NC DHHS (NC DEHNR 1991). TEQ values in 2004 were the lowest to date.
Bottom feeder fillet TEQ values were below the NC DHHS advisory limit of 4 ppt at all
stations (Table 6-3).
Table 6-4 illustrates the decline in 2,3,7,8 TCDD concentrations in carp fillet samples from
1990 through 2004. Since 1990, 2,3,7,8 TCDD concentrations in carp fillets declined -
dramatically (94-99 percent) at all sampling stations (Table 6-4, Figure 6-1). As in 2003, ,
2,3,7,8 TCDD concentrations in carp fillets in 2004 were detected only from Stations 4A and
4B in Waterville Lake. The concentrations of 2,3,7,8 TCDD in carp fillets from Waterville
Lake in 2004 were significantly lower than those observed in recent years. For example, the
2,3,7,8 TCDD concentration in carp fillets from Station 4A (1.7 ppt) was the lowest value
observed since 2001 (Table 6-4). Similarly, the 2,3,7,8 TCDD concentration in carp fillets
from Station 4B (1.6 ppt) was the lowest observed to date, and represents a decline of 87
percent from the concentration observed at this station in 2003. A correlation likely exists
between 2,3,7,8 TCDD concentrations in carp fillets from Waterville Lake and specimen size.
For example, on average, the size of the carp submitted for fillet analysis from Waterville
Lake increased in recent years prior to 2004, particularly at Station 4B. During the period
1999-2003, the mean weight of carp analyzed at Stations 4A and 4B was 3.193 kg and 5.042
kg, respectively, compared to only 2.673 kg (Station 4A) and 3.207 kg (Station 4B) for the
period 1994 through 1999 (EA 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2000, 2001b, 2001c, and —
2003). However, the carp submitted for analysis from Waterville Lake in 2004 had a mean
weight of only 3.75 kg at Station 4A and 3.9 kg at Station 4B, significantly smaller than the
carp analyzed in 2003 (EA 2004). In fact, based on mean weight, the carp composite -
submitted for analysis at Station 4B in 2004 was the smallest since 1996. The decline in
average size noted in 2004 was the result of retaining only those specimens within one
standard deviation of the mean size of specimens for the period 1993 through 2003 as
described in Section 4. Concentrations of 2,3,7,8 TCDD in carp fillets from Waterville Lake
increased slightly during 1999-2003 when larger fish were submitted for analysis, then
declined noticeably in 2004, when smaller fish were submitted for analysis, particularly at
Station 4B (Figure 6-1). In contrast to carp fillets, 2,3,7,8 TCDD concentrations in catfish -
fillets from Stations 4A and 4B have been below detectable levels since 2002 (Figure 6-2).
Thus, despite modest increases in recent years that are likely artifacts associated with the size
of the specimens collected, the concentration of 2, 3, 7, 8 TCDD in carp fillets from
Waterville Lake has declined by 94-99 percent from 1990 through 2004 (Figure 6-1).

CASE NARRATIVE
STL SACRAMENTO PROJECT NUMBER G4I080341
BIOLOGIC,8290,Dioxins/Furans
Sample(s): 1,2,3,4,5,6,7, 8, 9
Native analyte 2,3,7,8-TCDF is outside the ion ratio control limits in the laboratory control
sample(LCS) associated with the sample. This is the result of instrument related issues.
This analyte has been designated with a"W'qualifier to indicate the isomer has been
qualified as "positively identified,but at an estimated quantity". The quantitation is based on
theoretical ratios.
The"Totals"detection limit for some of the homologue series has been elevated due to the
presence of polychlorinated diphenyl ethers(PCDPEs).
The ending calibration standard ST0914A of sequence 14SE045D5 had a response for
2,3,7,8-TCDD between-20 and-25%. An average response factor of the initial and ending
standards for this analyte will be calculated and applied to all associated samples with a
positive result. Non detect results are not impacted by this observation.
The ending calibration standard ST0914A of sequence 14SE045D5 had a lowered response
for 2,3,7,8-TCDF of -43.4%. The associated samples are non detect for this analyte with an
estimated detection limit well below the target detection limit. There is no possibility of false
negatives.
Sample(s): 5
Analyte 2,3,7,8-TCDF in sample5 has been flagged with a UA"qualifier due to a matrix
interference that is causing the ion ratio to be outside limits.The result has been qualified as
"positively identified,but estimated quantity"because the quantitation is based on theoretical
ratios.There is no adverse impact on data quality and no corrective action is necessary.
There were no other anomalies associated with this project.

QC Parameter Definitions
QC Batch:The QC batch consists of a set of up to 20 field samples that behave similarly(i.e.,same matrix)
and are processed using the same procedures,reagents,and standards at the same time.
_ Method Blank: An analytical control consisting of all reagents,which may include internal standards and
surrogates,and is carried through the entire analytical procedure. The method blank is used to define the level
of laboratory background contamination.
Laboratory Control Sample and Laboratory Control Sample Duplicate(LCS/LCSD):
An aliquot of blank matrix spiked with known amounts of representative target analytes. The LCS(and LCSD
as required)is tamed through the entire analytical process and is used to monitor the accuracy of the analytical
process independent of potential matrix effects. If an LCSD is performed,it may also used to evaluate the
precision of the process.
Duplicate Sample(Di):Different aliquots of the same sample are analyzed to evaluate the precision of an
analysis.
Surrogates: Organic compounds not expected to be detected in field samples,which behave similarly to
target analytes. These are added to every sample within a batch at a known concentration to determine the
efficiency of the sample preparation and analytical process.
Matrix Spike and Matrix Spike Duplicate(MS/MSD): An Ms is an aliquot of a matrix fortified
with known quantities of specific compounds and subjected to an entire analytical procedure in order to indicate
the appropriateness of the method for a particular matrix. The percent recovery for the respective compound(s)
is then calculated. The MSD is a second aliquot of the same matrix as the matrix spike,also spiked,in order to
determine the precision of the method.
- Isotope Dilution: For isotope dilution methods,isotopically labeled analogs(internal standards)of the
native target analytes are spiked into the sample at time of extraction. These internal standards are used for
quantitation,and monitor and correct for matrix effects. Since matrix effects on method performance can be
judged by the recovery of these analogs,there is little added benefit of performing MS/MSD for these methods.
MS/MSD are only performed for client or QAPP requirements.
Control Limits:The reported control limits are either based on laboratory historical data,method
requirements,or project data quality objectives. The control limits represent the estimated uncertainty of the
test results.

Jill Kaltman, STL Sacramento -
Our consultant, FA Engineering, completed the 2004 fish tissue sample collection this week. We will ship
the frozen fish samples to your lab overnight on Tuesday 9n12004 for delivery Wednesday 918/2004.
This year we encountered catfish at a location where they had been absent in prior years. As a result,we
have a total of 10 fish tissue samples foranalysis. The PO was issued for 9 samples at$900 each.
Proceed with all 10 analyses and Invoice us for same. I will adjust the PO amount when the invoice is
received based on the unit price in STL quote BRP071204.
- _ The tissue samples will be shipped on 9f712004 under the following chain of custody records:
#128341 -right fillet composites, 9 location &species samples of 5 fillets each
#128343-5 carp whole body specimens for lab composite
We are retaining the left fillet composites samples in our freezer until we receive confirmation that the
above samples are received and processed succesfuliy by the lab.
The analytical reports should be submitted to my attention at Blue Ridge Paper.

CASE NARRATIVE
STL SACRAMENTO PROJECT NUMBER G4I080257
BIOLOGIC,8290,Dioxins/F urans
Sample(s): 1
The ending calibration standard ST0914A of sequence 14SE045D5 had a response for
2,3,7,8-TCDD between-20 and-255o. An average response factor of the initial and ending
standards for this analyte will be calculated and applied to all associated samples with a
positive result. Non detect results are not impacted by this observation.
The ending calibration standard ST0914A of sequence 14SE045D5 had a lowered response
_ for 2,3,7,8-TCDF of -43.4%. The associated samples are non detect for this analyte with an
estimated detection limit well below the target detection limit. There is no possibility of false
negatives.
Native analyte 2,3,7,8-TCDF is outside the ion ratio control limits in the laboratory control
sample(LCS)associated with the sample. This is the result of instrument related issues.
This analyte has been designated with a"VA"qualifier to indicate the isomer has been
qualified as"positively identified,but at an estimated quantity". The quantitation is based on
theoretical ratios.
There were no other anomalies associated with this project.

QC Parameter Definitions
QC Batch:The QC batch consists of a set of up to 20 field samples that behave similarly(i.e.,same matrix)
and are processed using the same procedures,reagents,and standards at the same time.
Method Blank: An analytical control consisting of all reagents,which may include internal standards and
surrogates,and is carried through the entire analytical procedure. The method blank is used to define the level
of laboratory background contamination.
Laboratory Control Sample and Laboratory Control Sample Duplicate(LCS/LCSD):
An aliquot of blank matrix spiked with known amounts of representative target analytes. The LCS(and LCSD
as required)is carried through the entire analytical process and is used to monitor the accuracy of the analytical
process independent of potential matrix effects. If an LCSD is performed,it may also used to evaluate the
precision of the process.
Duplicate Sample(DU):Different aliquots of the same sample are analyzed to evaluate the precision of an
analysis.
Surrogates: Organic compounds not expected to be detected in field samples,which behave similarly to
target analytes. These are added to every sample within a batch at a known concentration to determine the
efficiency of the sample preparation and analytical process.
Matrix Spike and Matrix Spike Duplicate(MS/MSD): An MS is an aliquot of a matrix fortified
with known quantities of specific compounds and subjected to an entire analytical procedure in order to indicate
the appropriateness of the method for a particular matrix. The percent recovery for the respective compound(s)
is then calculated. The MSD is a second aliquot of the same matrix as the matrix spike,also spiked,in order to
determine the precision of the method.
Isotope Dilution: For isotope dilution methods,isotopically labeled analogs(internal standards)of the
native target analytes are spiked into the sample at time of extraction. These internal standards are used for
quantimtion,and monitor and correct for matrix effects. Since matrix effects on method performance can be
judged by the recovery of these analogs,there is little added benefit of performing MSIMSD for these methods.
MSIMSD are only performed for client or QAPP requirements.
Control Limits:The reported control limits are either based on laboratory historical data,method
requirements,or project data quality objectives. The control limits represent the estimated uncertainty of the
test results.

Subject 2004 Blue Ridge Fish Tissue Samples PO 285164
3 Sep 2004
Jill Kellman, STL Sacramento-
-. Our consultant,EA Engineering,completed the 2004 fish tissue sample collection this week. We will ship
the frozen fish samples to your lab overnight on Tuesday 9n12004 for delivery Wednesday 91812004.
This year we encountered catfish at a location where they had been absent in prior years. As a result,we
have a total of 10 fish tissue samples for analysis. The PO was issued for 9 samples at$900 each.
Proceed with all 10 analyses and invoice us for same. I will adjust the PO amount when the invoice is
received based on the unit price in STL quote BRP071204.
The tissue samples will be shipped on 9/7/2004 under the following chain of custody records:
#128341 -right fillet composites, 9 location &species samples of 5 fillets each
#128343-5 carp whole body specimens for lab composite
We are retaining the left fillet composites samples in our freezer unfit we receive confirmation that the
above samples are received and processed suocesfuily by the lab.
The analytical reports should be submitted to my attention at Blue Ridge Paper.

[1) The calculated RPD was outside QC acceptance limits.
[21 The spike recovery was outside acceptance limits for the ME and /or MSD due to matrix interference. The ICE
and/or LCSD were within acceptance limits showing that the laboratory is in control and the data is
acceptable.
[3) The spike recovery was outside acceptance limits for the MS and/or MSD due to an analyte concentration in the
sample at four times greater than the spike concentration. The QC batch was accepted based upon LCS and/or
LCSD recoveries within acceptance limits.

On August 8, 2006 Blue Ridge Paper Products Canton Mill(Blue Ridge) will by-pass back up
power at its waste treatment plant low lift station. This project is essential to tie-in a newly
installed diesel driven generator to run the low lift pumps if total mill power and Progress Energy
power are lost at the same time, such as during flood events. This adds an extra level of security
to help protect and ensure smooth operation of the waste treatment plant.
The project will consist of pulling and terminating a cable from an existing transformer to a
newly installed manual transfer switch and terminating a cable from the switch to the bus. The
work is expected to last five to six hours during which time the low lift pumps will be ran on
Mill power with no backup power supply source. Blue Ridge has evaluated the possibility of
providing back up power to the low lift pumps from a 2300-volt generator. However, due to the
short duration of this project, the conditions under which the project will be carried out (see
below), the low risk of total mill power failure, and the difficulty of securing this type of power
supply,Blue Ridge has decided not to pursue a generator to supply back-up power during the
project.
To minimize the potential for an upset,Blue Ridge has planned the following: a) all work that
can be done"on the run"will be completed prior to the outage;b) mill Engineering/
Maintenance personnel along with the contractor have reviewed all tasks involved and have
produced a detailed schedule; c) mill Electricians with radio communications will be stationed at
strategic locations during the outage to respond to any emergency; d) outage is planned for the
morning of August 8 h to minimize the potential for thunderstorms that may cause,a power
outage and during a period of time when low flow is expected from the mill due to a paper
machine outage that day.
If there are any questions or concerns regarding this project,please contact me at the number
below.
