Under a mandate of national environmental laws, the Agency strives to formulate and implement actions leading to a compatible balance between human activities and the ability of natural systems to support and nurture life. To meet this mandate, the EPA's Office of Research and Development provides data and science support that can be used to solve environmental problems and to build the scientific knowledge base needed to manage our ecological resources wisely, to understand how pollutants affect our health, and to prevent or reduce environmental risks. The Environmental Technology Verification (ETV) Program has been established by the EPA to verify the performance characteristics of innovative environmental technology across all media and to report this objective information to permitters, buyers, and users of the technology, thus substantially accelerating the entrance of new environmental technologies into the marketplace. Verification organizations oversee and report verification activities based on testing and quality assurance protocols developed with input from major stakeholders and customer groups associated with the technology area. ETV consists of seven environmental technology centers. Information about each of these centers can be found on the Internet at http://www.epa.gov/etv/. Effective verifications of monitoring technologies are needed to assess environmental quality and to supply cost and performance data to select the most appropriate technology for that assessment. Under a cooperative agreement, Battelle has received EPA funding to plan, coordinate, and conduct such verification tests for "Advanced Monitoring Systems for Air, Water, and Soil" and report the results to the community at large. Information concerning this specific environmental technology area can be found on the Internet at http ://www. epa.gov/etv/centers/center 1 .html. in ------- Acknowledgments The authors wish to acknowledge the support of all those who helped plan and conduct the verification test, analyze the data, and prepare this report.

The goal of the ETV Program is to further environmental protection by substantially accelerating the acceptance and use of improved and cost-effective technologies. ETV seeks to achieve this goal by provid- ing high-quality, peer-reviewed data on technology performance to those involved in the design, distribution, financing, permitting, purchase, and use of environmental technologies. ETV works in partnership with recognized testing organizations; with stakeholder groups consisting of buyers, vendor organizations, and permitters; and with the full participation of individual technology developers. The program evaluates the performance of innovative tech- nologies by developing test plans that are responsive to the needs of stakeholders, conducting field or laboratory tests (as appropriate), collecting and analyzing data, and preparing peer- reviewed reports. All evaluations are conducted in accordance with rigorous quality assurance (QA) protocols to ensure that data of known and adequate quality are generated and that the results are defensible. The EPA's National Exposure Research Laboratory and its verification organization partner, Battelle, operate the Advanced Monitoring Systems (AMS) Center under ETV. The AMS Center recently evaluated the performance of the AANDERAA Instruments, Inc. RCM Mk n, housing theOptode3830. ------- Chapter 2 Technology Description The objective of the ETV AMS Center is to verify the performance characteristics of environmental monitoring technologies for air, water, and soil. This verification report provides results for the verification testing of the Mk n with Optode 3830 by AANDERAA Instruments, Inc. Following is a description of the Optode 3830, based on information provided by the vendor. The information provided below was not verified in this test. The Optode 3830 (Figure 2-1) uses a platinum porphyrin complex as a dynamic fluorescence quencher to monitor oxygen in water. The porphyrin complex is embedded in a gas-permeable foil that is exposed to the surrounding water. A black optical isolation coating protects the complex from sunlight and fluorescent particles in the water. This sensing foil is attached to a sapphire window, providing optical access for the measuring system from inside a watertight titanium housing. The foil is excited by modulated blue light, and the phase of a returned red light is measured. By linearizing and temperature compensating with an incorporated temperature sensor, the absolute oxygen concentration can be determined. The diameter of the Optode 3830 is 36 millimeters (mm) (1.42 inches). It is 86 mm (3.39 inches) long and weighs 0.23 kilograms (8.11 ounces). Pricing information is available from the vendor. The Mk n with Optode 3830 was verified for temperature, dissolved Figure 2-1. AANDERAA oxygen (DO), and turbidity. The range, resolution, and accuracy, as Oxygen Optode 3830 indicated by the vendor, for those parameters are listed below. Table 2-1.

The Mk n with Optode 3830 was evaluated by determining calibration check accuracy and by comparing Mk n with Optode 3830 measurements with standard reference measurements and measurements from handheld calibrated probes. Two Mk n with Optode 3830s were deployed in saltwater, freshwater, and laboratory environments near Charleston, South Carolina, during a 3 /^-month verification test. Water quality parameters were measured both by the Mk n with Optode 3830 and by reference methods consisting of collocated field-portable instrumentation and analyses of collected water samples. During each phase, performance was assessed in terms of calibration check accuracy, relative bias, precision, linearity, and inter-unit reproducibility. The performance of the Mk n with Optode 3830 was verified in terms of the following parameters: • DO • Temperature • Turbidity. 3.2 Test Site Characteristics The three test sites used for this verification were selected in an attempt to expose the Mk n with Optode 3830 to the widest possible range of conditions while conducting an efficient test. The three sites included one saltwater, one freshwater, and one controlled location. Approximate ranges for the target parameters at each of the test sites as determined by reference measurements are given in Table 3-1. ------- Table 3-1. Water Characteristics at the Test Sites Saltwater Parameter DO Temperature Turbidity Low 3 milligrams/ liter (mg/L) 20°C 8NTU High 6 mg/L 28°C 37NTU Freshwater Low 6.8 mg/L ire 1.7NTU High 11. 2 mg/L 27°C 3.6NTU Mesocosm Low 9.3 mg/L 9°C 0.4NTU High 12.1 mg/L 16°C 15NTU 3.3 Test Design The verification test was designed to assess the performance of multi-parameter water probes and was closely coordinated with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) through the Center for Coastal Environmental Health and Biomolecular Research (CCEHBR). The test was conducted in three phases at a saltwater site in a tributary of Charleston Harbor; a freshwater site at the Hollings wetland on the CCEHBR campus; and a controlled site at the CCEHBR mesocosm facility in Charleston, South Carolina. At each test site, two Mk n with Optode 3830s were deployed as close to each other as possible to assess inter-unit reproducibility. The first phase of the test was conducted at the saltwater site (Figure 3-1). The CCEHBR campus has access to the tributary of Charleston Harbor site, which is a predominantly tidal body of water that receives some riverine input; its salinities range from 20 to 35 parts per thousand. The second phase of the test was conducted at the freshwater site (Figure 3-2). The freshwater site was a wetlands area near the Hollings Marine Research Laboratory, located on the CCHEBR campus. The third phase was conducted at the CCEHBR's mesocosm facility (Figure 3-3). This facility contains modular mesocosms that can be classified as "tidal" or "estuarine." The mesocosm phase included both saltwater and freshwater conditions. The precision measurements were performed before the Mk n with Optode 3830 was deployed into the saltwater environment. The Mk n with Optode 3830 was placed in a tank of saline water inside the NOAA laboratory. While in this stable environment, the Mk n with Optode 3830 sampled at a rate of once per minute for approximately 30 minutes to collect data used in the percent relative standard deviation (RSD). The schedule for the various testing activities is given in Table 3-2. ------- Figure 3-1. Saltwater Site Figure 3-2. Freshwater Site ------- Figure 3-3. Mesocosm Tank Table 3-2.

Dockside reference measurements were made for DO and temperature, while reference samples for turbidity were collected and returned to the laboratory for analysis. Figure 3-4 shows the Mk n with Optode 3830s at the pier. The Mk n with Optode 3830s were mounted on iron posts that were driven into the river bed. The Mk n with Optode 3830s were approximately 0.5 meters apart in the shallows of the tidal river. Reference samples were collected throughout the day during the test. For the duration of this phase, the Mk n with Optode 3830s were deployed at depths between approximately one and 10 feet, varying according to the tide. Table 3-3 shows the times and numbers of samples taken throughout the saltwater test phase. Figure 3-4. Saltwater Deployment ------- Table 3-3.

As in the saltwater portion of the verification test, the Mk n with Optode 3830 monitored the naturally occurring target parameters 24 hours per day, while reference measurements were made and turbidity reference samples collected, again rotating among collection times. Table 3-4 shows the sampling times and number of samples collected throughout the freshwater test phase. The Mk n with Optode 3830s were hung from a large post suspended several feet from the bottom of the pond. During this portion of the deployment, the salinity and stratification of the freshwater pond increased. Natural weather and extreme tidal events caused the freshwater pond to become brackish and highly stratified. Reference measurements taken at varying depths along the water column during the first week of December showed significant stratification between the top and bottom of the freshwater pond. As a result, the freshwater phase at the Rollings wetlands was discontinued on December 8. The mesocosm deployment (Section 3.3.3) was extended to collect data using a freshwater deployment.

Reference measurements were made and water samples were collected during each test day throughout the normal operating hours of the facility (nominally 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.). During this phase, the mesocosm was manipulated to introduce variations in the measured parameters. The turbidity of the system was varied by operating a pump near the sediment trays to suspend additional solids in the water. During the last three weeks of testing, saltwater was drained and replaced with freshwater. These activities are detailed in Table 3-5. Table 3-5.

Parameters over the ranges specified in Table 3-1 were monitored by the Mk n with Optode 3830. Samples were collected and analyzed using a reference method for comparison. 3.4 Reference Measurements The reference measurements made in this verification test and the equipment used for these measurements were as follows: • DO—National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)-traceable, commercially available probe (Orion 830A) • Temperature—NIST-traceable, handheld thermocouple and readout (Orion 830A) • Turbidity—Hach Ratio XR turbidity meter (Hach 43900). ------- Reagents were distilled deionized water (for field blanks) and a Hach Ratio XR turbidity standard from Advanced Polymer Systems. Sampling equipment consisted of 0.5- to 1.0-L glass bottles, a Niskin sampling device provided by CCEHBR, and provisions for sample storage. The maximum sample holding times are given in Table 3-6. All sample holding time requirements were met. Table 3-6. Maximum Sample Holding Times Parameter Holding Time DO none(a) Temperature none Turbidity 24 hours (^ "None" indicates that the sample analyses must be performed immediately after sample collection or in the water column at the site. 10 ------- Chapter 4 Quality Assurance/Quality Control Quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) procedures were performed in accordance with the quality management plan (QMP) for the AMS Center(2) and the test/QA plan for this verification test.(1) 4.1 Instrument Calibration Both the portable and laboratory reference instruments were calibrated by CCEHBR according to the procedures and schedules in place at the test facility, and documentation was provided to Battelle. 4.2 Field Quality Control Replicate samples were taken during field sampling for assessment of the reference methods. The replicate samples were collected once each week during a regular sampling period by splitting field samples into two separate samples (containers) and analyzing both by the same laboratory reference methods. The results from the replicate analysis and the field blanks met the criteria listed in Tables 4-1 and 4-2, respectively. A container of deionized water (field blank) was taken to the field, brought back to the laboratory, and analyzed in the same manner as the collected samples. 4.3 Sample Custody Samples collected at the saltwater, freshwater, and mesocosm sites were transported by the scientist performing the sampling at CCEHBR to the laboratory in an ice-filled cooler and analyzed immediately; therefore, no chain-of-custody forms were required. 11 ------- Table 4-1.

For the PE audit, independent standards were used. Table 4-3 shows the procedures used for the PE audit and associated results. Table 4-3. Summary of Performance Evaluation Audits Audited Parameter DO Temperature Turbidity Audit Procedure Oakton 100 monitor Orion 230 thermometer Advanced Polymer Systems turbidity standard Acceptable Tolerance ±5% ±rc ±10% Actual Difference 1.1% 0.0 °C 0.72% Passed Audit Yes Yes Yes The DO measurement made by the Orion 830A was compared with that from a handheld DO Oakton 100 monitor. Agreement within 1.1% was achieved. The comparison was made with a sample of collected water, and agreement was within 0.0°C. A NIST-traceable Orion 230 thermometer was used for the temperature performance audit. The Hach turbidity meter measurements were compared with an independent turbidity standard. Agreement within 0.72% was observed. 4.4.2 Technical Systems Audit The Battelle Quality Manager conducted a technical systems audit (TSA) on October 28, 2003, to ensure that the verification test was performed in accordance with the test/QA plan(1) and the AMS Center QMP(2) As part of the audit, the Battelle Quality Manager reviewed the reference 12 ------- methods used, compared actual test procedures to those specified in the test/QA plan, and reviewed data acquisition and handling procedures. Observations and findings from this audit were documented and submitted to the Battelle Verification Test Coordinator for response. The records concerning the TSA are permanently stored with the Battelle Quality Manager. During the verification test, two deviations from the test/QA plan were necessary. The first occurred when natural weather events caused the freshwater pond to become brackish and highly stratified, resulting in reference measurements that were not representative of the water the Mk n with 3830 measured. An extended freshwater period, beginning on December 13, 2003, was added to the end of mesocosm deployment to provide data from a freshwater deployment. Therefore, relative bias and linearity data were not collected at the freshwater site. The data were collected from the mesocosm extension instead. The second deviation occurred when a problem with the Niskin sampler developed. The sampler broke after several uses at the beginning of the saltwater period and was replaced as soon as possible. However, this malfunction resulted in fewer reference samples. The deviations had no impact on the results of the test. 4.4.3 Audit of Data Quality At least 10% of the data acquired during the verification test was audited. Battelle's Quality Manager traced the data from the initial acquisition, through reduction and statistical analysis, to final reporting, to ensure the integrity of the reported results. All calculations performed on the data undergoing the audit were checked. 4.5 QA/QC Reporting Each assessment and audit was documented in accordance with Sections 3.3.4 and 3.3.5 of the QMP for the ETV AMS Center.(2) Once the assessment report was prepared, the Verification Test Coordinator ensured that a response was provided for each adverse finding or potential problem and implemented any necessary follow-up corrective action. The Battelle Quality Manager ensured that follow-up corrective action was taken. The results of the TSA were sent to the EPA. 4.6 Data Review Records generated in the verification test were reviewed within two weeks of generation before these records were used to calculate, evaluate, or report verification results. Table 4-4 sum- marizes the types of data recorded. The review was performed by a Battelle technical staff member involved in the verification test, but not the staff member who originally generated the record. The person performing the review added his/her initials and the date to a hard copy of the record being reviewed. 13 ------- Table 4-4.

The results from the calibration checks were summarized, and accuracy was determined each time the calibration check was conducted. Calibration check accuracy (A) is reported as a percentage, calculated using the following equation: A=l-(Cs-Cp)/CsxWO (1) where Cs is the value of the reference standard, and Cp is the value measured by the Mk n with Optode 3830. The closer^ is to 100, the more consistent the calibration check accuracy. 5.2 Relative Bias Water samples were analyzed by both the reference method and the Mk n with Optode 3830, and the results were compared. The results for each sample were recorded, and the accuracy was expressed in terms of the average relative bias (B), as calculated from the following equation: where CP is a measurement taken from the Mk n with Optode 3830 being verified at the same time as the reference measurement was taken, and CR is the reference measurement. This calculation was performed for each reference sample analysis for each of the three target water parameters. In addition, relative bias was assessed independently for each Mk n with Optode 3830 to determine inter-unit reproducibility. 15 ------- 5.3 Precision The standard deviation (S) of the measurements made during a period of stable operation at the mesocosm was calculated and used as a measure of probe precision: S = n-1 (Ck-C)2 k ' 1/2 (3) where n is the number of replicate measurements, Ck is the concentration reported for the kth measurement, and C is the average concentration of the replicate measurements. Precision was calculated for each of the three target water parameters. Probe precision was reported in terms of the percent RSD of the series of measurements. S %RSD = =xlOO (4) C y ' 5.4 Linearity For target water parameters, linearity was assessed by linear regression, with the analyte concentration measured by the reference method as an independent variable and the reading from the analyzer verified as a dependent variable. Linearity is expressed in terms of the slope, intercept, and coefficient of determination (R2). Linearity was assessed separately for each Mk n with Optode 3830. 5.5 Inter-Unit Reproducibility The results obtained from the two Mk n with Optode 3830s were compiled independently and compared to assess inter-unit reproducibility. Inter-unit reproducibility was determined by calculating the average absolute difference between the two Mk n with Optode 3830s. In addition, the two Mk n with Optode 3830s were compared by evaluating the relative bias of each. 16 ------- Chapter 6 Test Results The results of the verification of the two Mk n with Optode 3830s (identified as 1103 and 1104 in this report) are presented in this section. The Mk n with Optode 3830 data were recorded at 10-minute intervals throughout the verification test. First, a visual record of the condition of the Mk n with Optode 3830s pre- and post-deployment is discussed, then the statistical comparisons are made. Finally, a record of the activities involved in servicing and maintenance of the Mk n with Optode 3830s is presented. Prior to the initial saltwater deployment, the Mk n with Optode 3830s were in "like-new" condition. That is, they arrived from the vendor crated and ready for installation. Figure 6-1 shows one of the two Mk n with Optode 3830s in its pre-deployment condition. As deployed, the end where the individual probes are placed is exposed and oriented on top of the probe.

Figure 6-2 shows the post-deployment condition of the Mk n with Optode 3830s. The Mk n with Optode 3830s were covered with a combination of green algae, silt, and some shell growth. Figure 6-2. Mk II with Optode 3830 After Saltwater Deployment. Both Mk H with Optode 3830s after being removed from the saltwater deployment (top), with close-ups of Mk n with Optode 3830 (left) and turbidity probe (right). Prior to redeployment at the freshwater location, the Mk n with Optode 3830s were cleaned. This consisted of gently rubbing the optical windows of the turbidity and oxygen probes with a towel and 10% acetic acid solution. Then the Mk n with Optode 3830s were placed overnight in a tank of oxygen-saturated water before deployment. Figure 6-3 shows the cleaned and reconditioned Mk n with Optode 3830s in this tank. 18 ------- Figure 6-3. Cleaned and Reconditioned Mk II with Optode 3830 in Storage Tank Used Between Deployments Finally, the condition of the Mk n with Optode 3830s after the freshwater deployment was recorded and is shown in Figure 6-4. As can be seen from the photos, the Mk n with Optode 3830s appeared more fouled after the saltwater deployment than after the freshwater deployment, both from biofouling and small marine life. Figure 6-4. Mk II with Optode 3830 After Freshwater Deployment, with Close-up of Mk n with Optode 3830 (right) 19 ------- 6.1 Calibration Check Accuracy The Mk n with Optode 3830s were calibrated only at the beginning of the test. The calibrations were checked at the end of each deployment as instructed by the vendor. No check was performed for temperature. Table 6-1 shows the results from these calibration checks for the saltwater, freshwater, and mesocosm tests. Table 6-1. Calibration Check Accuracy Deployment Location Date Saltwater 10/29/2003 Freshwater 12/9/2003 Mesocosm 1/13/2004 Calibration Check Accuracy (%) 1103 DO 98.9 98.9 99.7 Turbidity 30 1,500 NA(a) 1104 DO 97.3 95.6 83.9 Turbidity 18 800 520 ^ Saturated; no data reported. The accuracy shown in Table 6-1 is the comparison of how well the Mk n with Optode 3830s held their calibration throughout the verification test. The Mk n with Optode 3830s were factory calibrated; and, therefore, no adjustments to the calibrations were made during the verification test. As shown in the table, the turbidity calibration check did not correlate well with the initial calibration values. The Mk n with Optode 3830, as tested, used a turbidity probe that had a maximum range of 20 NTU, which is designed for the most common use of these probes—open ocean waters. The calibration check accuracy for DO was consistently greater than 98.9% for the 1103. The 1104 measurements were consistently lower than the 1103 from the first day of deployment and had a calibration check accuracy ranging from 83.9 to 97.3%. 6.2 Relative Bias Relative bias (the percent difference between the Mk n with Optode 3830 measurements and the reference measurements) was assessed by comparing the reference measurements with the 1103 and 1104 readings. The Mk n with Optode 3830 reading that was closest in time to the reference sample was used. Plots of the 1103 and 1104 data, along with the corresponding reference measurements that were used for the relative bias calculations, are shown in Figures 6-5a-f No data are reported for the freshwater period because of the stratification that occurred. The relative bias results are summarized in Table 6-2. The temperature measurements resulted in a relative bias that was below 2% throughout the test. The oxygen relative accuracy was below 20% throughout the saltwater deployment and below 10% throughout the mesocosm deployment. During saltwater deployment, the turbidity probe exhibited higher bias because the deployment conditions sometimes exceeded the Mk n with Optode 3830 range. These results 20 ------- « Reference 1103 Saltwater a | t n & 10/6/20030:00 10/11/20030:00 10/16/20030:00 10/21/20030:00 Date and Time 10/26/20030:00 10/31/20030:00 Figure 6-5a.

Since the Mkn with Optode 3830 recorded at intervals of 10 minutes, there could have been as much as 5 minutes' difference between the time of the reference sample and the nearest recorded Mk n with Optode 3830 data. Because of this temporal effect, between 1% and 3% of the relative bias calculations may be attributable to the differences seen between the two measurements. In addition, when combined with the manufacturer's specifications for the accuracy of the reference measurements of 2%, a total of up to 5% difference may be due to the combined temporal effects and inherent accuracy of the reference measurements. 6.3 Precision Table 6-3 shows the results of calculations taken from measurements performed before the saltwater deployment. The precision, reported as %RSD, was less than 3% for temperature and DO. Data from turbidity resulted in higher %RSDs (24.4 and 26.8) possibly as a result of the fact that measurements were near the zero point and particles moving into the detector's view would cause a measurement to spike, despite all attempts to keep the test conditions constant.

Figures 6-6a-f give the results of this comparison by showing the slope, intercept, and coefficient of determination (R2) for each parameter. Linearity and regression coefficients indicated the best agreement between the Mk n with Optode 3830 readings and reference values for temperature. During the saltwater deployment, the DO measurements resulted in slopes between 0.70 and 0.74 and regression coefficients between 0.76 and 0.79 over a range of 3 to 6 mg/L. During the mesocosm deployment, the Mk n with Optode 3830 demonstrated less linear behavior, with the slopes and regression coefficients both decreasing for DO. Finally, when the turbidity sensor was within its working range and not obstructed (as was 1103 during the mesocosm deployment), the measurements resulted in a slope of 0.99 and a regression coefficient of 0.93 over a range of 0.4 to 15 NTU. 25 ------- Reference DO (mg/L) Figure 6-6a.

Linearity Data for Turbidity (Mesocosm) 28 ------- 6.5 Inter-Unit Reproducibility Inter-unit reproducibility was assessed both by comparing the relative bias of the two Mk n with Optode 3830s (Section 6.2) and by comparing the average absolute differences between the two Mk n with Optode 3830 readings for each parameter at each deployment location. Freshwater results are included because the two Mk n with Optode 3830s were deployed to the same depth. Figures 6-7 through 6-9 show the data used for these calculations. These calculations were made for the readings where there was an analogous reference measurement only. The results of average difference comparisons are shown in Table 6-4, where "n" is the number of measurements. Table 6-4.

Inter-Unit Reproducibility Data for Turbidity During Mesocosm Tests ------- 6.6 Other Factors 6.6.1 Ease of Use The Mk n with Optode 3830 was installed and deployed by CCHEBR staff with the oversight of AAKDERAA during installation and Battelle during deployment. Once the Mk n with Optode 3830s were deployed, the vendor adopted a "hands off' approach for the remainder of the test. No maintenance was required. Data were collected to a personal computer by removing the data storage unit (DSU) from the Mk n with Optode 3830 and plugging it into a serial cable supplied by the vendor. AANDERAA-supplied software (Data Reading Program 5059, Version 1.00 build 84) was used to communicate with the DSU, which performed without a problem. The software allowed the data to be converted to ASCII format for inclusion in external data processing software. A sample printout from the software is shown in Appendix A. The Mk n with Optode 3830 required minimal interaction by operators during the test. Those interactions that did occur are described in Table 6-5. Table 6-5.

The two Mk n with Optode 3830s submitted for this test collected data at 10-minute intervals from October 1, 2003, until January 5, 2004, without any interruption in data collection. One hundred percent of the required data was collected by the Mk n with Optode 3830. 39 ------- Chapter 7 Performance Summary Two Mk n with Optode 3830s were evaluated in saltwater, freshwater, and mesocosm environments between October 2, 2003, and January 5, 2004. These Mk U with Optode 3830s measured DO, temperature, and turbidity in water at 10-minute intervals throughout these deployments. Table 7-1 summarizes the performance of the Mk U with Optode 3830s.
