The New York Water Science Center of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in Troy, N.Y., operates a state-of-the-science laboratory for the chemical analysis of soil and water. For over 20 years, the laboratory has specialized in analyses used in acid rain research and other environmental studies such as soil effects on forest health and logging effects on water quality.

In a study conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services, detectable concentrations of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) were found in the soil at every site despite targeting locations with no known PFAS sources (Santangelo and others, 2022). The widespread distribution of PFAS concentrations in New Hampshire has since sparked critical interest into understanding whether recharge to groundwater contains significant concentrations of PFAS after infiltration through soils. To address this concern, the USGS implemented a pilot study designed to evaluate whether PFAS infiltrate through shallow soil into shallow groundwater. Five sites were selected...

Data for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and related chemical and physical characteristics are presented from 30 soil sampling locations within the State of New Hampshire. A total of 15 sites were chosen based on the results of sampling efforts published in Santangelo and others(2022). Sites with relatively high concentrations of PFAS observed during the first study were selected for resampling to better understand the range of concentrations of PFAS in the area. At each of the 15 sites, soil samples were collected as near to the original site as possible (site A), and a second set of soil samples were collected at a secondary location (site B) 50 to 600 feet away from the original location for a total...

Data from a laboratory study undertaken at the U.S. Geological Survey to investigate solid/water partitioning of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in New Hampshire soils and biosolids are presented here. Soils and biosolids used for the experiments were collected using PFAS-free sampling equipment, air dried, gently homogenized, and sieved (soils only). Soil samples were collected from locations with known PFAS contamination (n = 5) and nearby sites with similar soil characteristics but low expected PFAS concentrations (n = 4). Finished biosolids were collected directly from facilities at the final stage of processing and before distribution. Air-dried soils and biosolids were then used for a series of...

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and related chemical and physical data are presented from shallow soil and groundwater at two sites in New Hampshire. The two sites, the former Brentwood Fire Training Area and White Farm, were selected because materials known to contain PFAS were used at each site. White Farm is an active farm where biosolids have been applied for several years. At the former Brentwood Fire Training Area, PFAS-containing aqueous film-forming foams were applied as part of regular fire training exercises. At each site, soil samples were collected in a gridded pattern over the site. Soil horizons within the sampling intervals were described using the National Soil Survey Center Natural Resources...
