Summary

Soil, soil porewater, groundwater, and playa lake sediment samples were collected between September 2021 and November 2023 at Cannon Air Force Base (CAFB) in eastern New Mexico as part of a study on the sources, fate, and transport of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Soil cores (2-foot-long) were collected in September 2021 from six sites that were potential PFAS source areas and one background site. Soil cores were analyzed for targeted PFAS compounds, total oxidizable precursor (TOP) assay, protein content, anions, total organic and inorganic carbon, cation exchange capacity, and pH. Physical properties, which included soil particle size distribution, oxide composition, moisture content, and water potential were also analyzed [...]
