Dear Fire Chief Callahan:
As you are probably aware,the Florida Department of Environmental Protection(Department)has been
engaged in investigations related to the historic use of aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) at Certified 4-
0
Fire Training Facilities across the State. The Department has been conducting these investigations
because of two contaminants of emerging concern,perfluorooctanoic acid(PFOA) and perfluorooctane >
sulfonate (PFOS),which historically have been used in a wide variety of products,including AFFF. As CL
part of this effort, the Department requested that the Monroe County Fire Rescue—Joe London Fire Q
Training Academy(Facility) complete a questionnaire regarding their use of AFFF. Because the Facility
indicated previous usage of AFFF,the Department's Site Investigation Section(SIS) collected samples
from ground water, surface water, sediment, and soil at the Facility on September 26, 2019.
as
Currently, there is no federal regulatory limit, or maximum contaminant level(MCL) for PFOS or E
PFOA,however, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has established a Health Advisory Level U)
(HAL) to provide guidance to state and local officials in evaluating drinking water quality. The HAL is U)
the level below which adverse health effects are not anticipated to occur over a lifetime of exposure. <
This HAL is 70 nanograms/Liter(ng/L). The Department,pursuant to Chapters 373 and 403, Florida
Statutes (F.S.), and the rules promulgated thereunder in Chapter 62-780, Florida Administrative Code 0
(F.A.C.),has derived provisional groundwater cleanup target levels (GCTLs) and soil cleanup target 00
CD
levels (SCTLs) for PFOA and PFOS.
e
The Department received the certified sample results on October 21, 2019. The following link to
DEP's Information Portal will provide you with access to the Department's documents for this site:

In Summary:
as
* The groundwater sample collected from well TMW-1 had a concentration of
1,100 ng/L of PFOA and 440 ng/L of PFOS, exceeding the provisional cleanup
target level of 70 ng/L. The groundwater sample collected from well TMW-2
had a concentration of 5,200 ng/L of PFOA and 12,000 ng/L of PFOS, also E
exceeding the provisional cleanup target level. U)
* Every soil and sediment sample collected exceeded the provisional leachability U)
soil cleanup target level. Additionally, soil sample SS-8 exceeded the direct
exposure cleanup target level for PFOS.
* Surface water sample SW-1 exceeded the surface water screening levels for U,
PFOA and PFOS. SW-2 exceeded the surface water screening level for PFOS. 12
0
Based on these findings, there is an indication that PFOA and PFOS contaminants have been
released or discharged into the environment at the Facility. As the current property owner and `-
operator of the Facility, you may have legal responsibility for site assessment and rehabilitation
pursuant to Chapters 376 or 403, F.S., and the rules promulgated thereunder in Chapter 62-780,
F.A.C. z
Please be advised that Chapter 62-780, F.A.C., establishes a process and time schedule for
assessing and remediating contaminated sites. All persons who have legal responsibility for site
rehabilitation, pursuant to Chapters 376 or 403, F.S., are required to comply with the provisions of
this rule and are subject to enforcement to compel such compliance.
0
A responsible party is required by 62-780, F.A.C., to initiate a site assessment within 60 days of U)
discovery of the contamination and to submit a site assessment report to the Department within
4-
270 days of discovery of the contamination. As a potentially responsible party at the above- 0
identified site, Monroe County/Monroe County Fire Rescue is subject to the requirements for >
assessment and remediation of such contamination under Chapter 62-780, F.A.C.
CL

We encourage Monroe County Fire Rescue to reach out to the Department with any questions and
recommend that you call to schedule a meeting or teleconference to discuss next steps in the
assessment and cleanup plan development process. Please contact Natalie Hardman in the
