Glossary of Terms

Additive Effect An additive effect is where two or more substances act together to produce a total effect that is the same as the sum of the individual effects

Adverse Health Effect

A change in body function or cell structure that might lead to disease or health problems

AFFF Aqueous Film Forming Foams ANZECC Australia and New Zealand Environment and Conservation Council ASC NEPM National Environmental Protection Measure – Assessment of Site Contamination ASLP Australian Standard Leaching Procedure AT Averaging Time Background Level

An average or expected amount of a substance or material in a specific environment, or typical amounts of substances that occur naturally in an environment.

BW Body weight Dermal Contact Contact with (touching) the skin (see route of exposure). Detection Limit The lowest concentration of a chemical that can reliably be distinguished from a zero

concentration. Dose The amount of a substance to which a person is exposed over some time period. Dose

is a measurement of exposure. Dose is often expressed as milligram (amount) per kilogram (a measure of body weight) per day (a measure of time) when people eat or drink contaminated water, food, or soil. In general, the greater the dose, the greater the likelihood of an effect. An “exposure dose” is how much of a substance is encountered in the environment. An “absorbed dose” is the amount of a substance that actually got into the body through the eyes, skin, stomach, intestines, or lungs.

ED Exposure Duration EF Exposure Frequency EFSA European Food Safety Authority ET Exposure time Exposure Contact with a substance by swallowing, breathing, or touching the skin or eyes.

Exposure may be short-term (acute exposure), of intermediate duration, or long-term (chronic exposure).

Exposure Assessment

The process of finding out how people come into contact with a hazardous substance, how often and for how long they are in contact with the substance, and how much of the substance they are in contact with.

Exposure Pathway

The route a substance takes from its source (where it began) to its end point (where it ends), and how people can come into contact with (or get exposed to) it. An exposure pathway has five parts: a source of contamination (such as chemical leakage into the subsurface); an environmental media and transport mechanism (such as movement through groundwater); a point of exposure (such as a private well); a route of exposure (eating, drinking, breathing, or touching), and a receptor population (people potentially or actually exposed). When all five parts are present, the exposure pathway is termed a completed exposure pathway.

FSANZ Food Standards Australia New Zealand


Guideline Value Guideline value is a concentration in soil, sediment, water, biota or air (established by relevant regulatory authorities such as the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC), Australia and New Zealand Environment and Conservation Council (ANZECC) and World Health Organisation (WHO)), that is used to identify conditions below which no adverse effects, nuisance or indirect health effects are expected. The derivation of a guideline value utilises relevant studies on animals or humans and relevant factors to account for inter- and intra-species variations and uncertainty factors. Separate guidelines may be identified for protection of human health and the environment. Dependent on the source, guidelines will have different names, such as investigation level, trigger value, ambient guideline etc.

HHERA Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessment HI Hazard Index Ingestion The act of swallowing something through eating, drinking, or mouthing objects. A

People who could come into contact with hazardous substances (see exposure pathway).

QA/QC Quality Assurance/Quality Control Risk The probability that something will cause injury or harm. RME Reasonable maximum exposure: The RME represents exposure scenario based on a

set of exposure parameters that is representative of expected maximum exposure for that receptor and activity. The RME would not be expected to be exceeded except under highly specific and exceptional circumstances.

Route of Exposure

The way people come into contact with a hazardous substance. Three routes of exposure are breathing [inhalation], eating or drinking [ingestion], or contact with the skin (dermal contact)

Toxicity The degree of danger posed by a substance to human, animal or plant life. Toxicology The study of the harmful effects of substances on humans or animals. TRV Toxicity Reference Value, e.g. an RfD, ADI, TDI, or PTWI. A guideline toxicity value

that incorporates uncertainty or safety factors to identify a safe dose assuming daily lifetime exposure to a substance that is unlikely to cause harm in humans.


Uncertainty Factor

Mathematical adjustments for reasons of safety when knowledge is incomplete. For example, factors used in the calculation of doses that are not harmful (adverse) to people. These factors are applied to the lowest-observed-adverse-effect-level (LOAEL) or the no-observed-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL) to derive a minimal risk level (MRL). Uncertainty factors are used to account for variations in people's sensitivity, for differences between animals and humans, and for differences between a LOAEL and a NOAEL. Scientists use uncertainty factors when they have some, but not all, the information from animal or human studies to decide whether an exposure will cause harm to people (also sometimes called a safety factor).

Addendum Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessment for PFAS: HMAS Albatross ES-1 | P a g e Ref: AU/18/ALBR003-C

Executive Summary

Introduction Environmental Risk Sciences Pty Ltd (enRiskS) has been engaged by Aurecon Australasia Pty Ltd (Aurecon), on behalf of the Australian Government Department of Defence (Defence), to review available data and prepare a human health and ecological risk assessment (HHERA) Addendum in relation to the presence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) located at, and in the vicinity of, HMAS Albatross (0026), Nowra, NSW (the “base”; refer to Figure 1 for the HMAS Albatross site boundary).

Investigations conducted by Aurecon have detected concentrations of some PFAS compounds in the environment at, and downgradient of, the base. PFAS are a family of fluorine-containing compounds with unique properties to make materials stain- and stick-resistant. PFAS are often described as being “ubiquitous in the environment”. They have been widely used in man-made products such as paints, roof treatments, hardwood floor protectant, surface protection products (e.g. carpet and clothing treatments) and coatings for cardboard and packaging. Some PFAS are or were also historically used in fire-fighting foams (also called Aqueous Film Forming Foams or AFFF). PFAS are not found in the environment from natural sources, only from anthropogenic sources (ATSDR 2015).

In November 2017, enRiskS prepared a HHERA for the base and surrounding area which is outlined in the following report:

enRiskS (2017), DEHP-ID-183-D1 Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessment for PFAS: HMAS Albatross, 10 November 2017.

The HHERA identified several areas where there was the potential for exposures to PFAS to be elevated and further assessment was required to better understand human health and ecological risks.

For the on-base area, this was limited to ecological receptors within the Lowland Rainforest, where the potential for bioaccumulative effects on the terrestrial environment could not be excluded. No direct toxicity effects to the terrestrial environment were identified in this area.

For the off-base area, the HHERA identified that risks associated with the consumption of fish caught from the Shoalhaven River were low and acceptable (based on the limited data collected). However, it was identified that there was the potential for elevated exposures from fish intakes from Currambene Creek. The collection of additional data was recommended to better inform the risk assessment. It was also identified that there was the potential for adverse effects to the environment of the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek following bioaccumulation and intakes by higher order consumers.

It is acknowledged that there are known to be other sources of PFAS to the environment downgradient of the base, especially to the Shoalhaven River. The known sources include sewage treatment plant outfalls, industrial activities and rural fire brigade sites.


Additional data has now been collected by Aurecon (2018) and this HHERA Addendum provides a further evaluation of the specific human health and ecological risk issues outlined above.

This HHERA Addendum should be read in conjunction with enRiskS (2017); it is not written to be read as a standalone report.

Objectives The objectives of the assessment presented in this report are:

To undertake a further quantitative evaluation of the potential risks to human health following the consumption of fish and crustaceans (“biota”) from the Shoalhaven River or Currambene Creek;

To undertake a further qualitative evaluation of the potential bioaccumulation risks to terrestrial ecological receptors within Lowland Rainforest areas on base; and

To undertake a further qualitative evaluation of the potential risks to aquatic (freshwater and marine if applicable) ecological receptors within the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek.

This assessment has been undertaken to evaluate potential risks to human health and the environment based on the information available up to 23 March 2018 and as described in Section 1.4. The HHERA has addressed human health and environmental risk issues relevant to PFAS in the investigated environmental media (including food products), and as arising from the use and storage of AFFF at HMAS Albatross. The assessment has not addressed human health or environmental risk issues associated with other chemicals.

This report is an addendum to the HHERA (enRiskS 2017) and as such only addresses risk issues relevant to the additional data collected. Refer to the HHERA for assessment of other risk issues on- and off-base.

The HHERA Addendum has considered risks to recreational fishers following the consumption of biota from the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek. Risks to commercial fishers and the public following sale of biota into the market have not been considered further as the NSW Government has indicated that any biota with PFAS from the site will be diluted sufficiently in the market so as not to be of further concern.

enRiskS acknowledges the assistance of the Aurecon Ecology team in preparing the ERA components of this HHERA Addendum.

Section 1. Background 1.1 Introduction Environmental Risk Sciences Pty Ltd (enRiskS) has been engaged by Aurecon Australasia Pty Ltd (Aurecon), on behalf of the Australian Government Department of Defence (Defence), to review available data and prepare a human health and ecological risk assessment (HHERA) Addendum in relation to the presence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) located at, and in the vicinity of, HMAS Albatross (0026), Nowra, NSW (the “base”; refer to Figure 1 for the HMAS Albatross site boundary).

enRiskS acknowledges the assistance of the Aurecon Ecology team in preparing the ERA components of this HHERA Addendum.

1.3 Methodology In general, the approach taken for the assessment of human health and environmental risks is in accordance with guidelines/protocols endorsed by Australian regulators, including:

National Environmental Protection Measure – Assessment of Site Contamination (ASC NEPM) including: Schedule B1 Investigation Levels for Soil and Groundwater (NEPC 1999 amended

2013a)


Schedule B4 Guideline on Health Risk Assessment Methodology (NEPC 1999 amended 2013c)

Schedule B6 Guideline on Risk Based Assessment of Groundwater Contamination (NEPC 1999 amended 2013e)

Schedule B7 Guideline on Health-Based Investigation Levels (NEPC 1999 amended 2013d)

enHealth Environmental Health Risk Assessment, Guidelines for Assessing Human Health Risks from Environmental Hazards (enHealth 2012a);

enHealth Australian Exposure Factor Guide (enHealth 2012b); and Australian and New Zealand Guidelines for Fresh and Marine Water Quality

(ANZECC/ARMCANZ 2000).

Additional guidance has been sought from international sources, and referenced within this document where relevant, however international guidance has not been adopted where it is inconsistent with the Australian regulatory or policy setting. The overall approach for the HHERA is outlined in the following (modified from enHealth 2012):

Issue Identification• Review the available site information• Review information on the nature and extent of

contamination• Develop a preliminary Conceptual Site Model (CSM)• Identify the Contaminants of Potential Concern (CoPC)

that require detailed evaluation• Identify and discuss uncertainties with CSM

Exposure Assessment• Identify and evaluate exposure populations

(human health and ecological) and exposure pathways

• Characterise exposure using available site data and assumptions relevant to the CSM

• Identify and discuss uncertainties

Hazard/Toxicity Assessment• Review health effects and dose-response

characteristics associated with exposure to the CoPC

• Identify appropriate toxicity reference values (TRVs) and ecological guidelines to be used to quantify effects associated with exposure

• Identify and discuss uncertainties

Risk Characterisation• Combine the evaluation of exposure and hazard/toxicity to

characterise risks to human health and the environment• Evaluate uncertainties relevant to the assessment and if

these may change the outcome of the risk assessment• Present conclusions

Risk Management• Identify options for risk management.• Determine if options adequately protective of health and

the environment• Consider economic, social and political aspects• Make informed decisions• Take actions to implement decisions• Monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the decisions

Review and reality check, refine CSM

Review and reality check, refine CSM

Risk communication


More specifically, the following PFAS-specific guidance has been considered in the HHERA:

PFAS National Environmental Management Plan (the “PFAS NEMP”), January 2018 (HEPA 2018); and

Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) guideline Perfluorinated Chemicals in food (FSANZ 2017a), and associated supporting documents: Supporting Document 1 Hazard assessment report – Perfluorooctane sulfonate

(PFOS), Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), Perfluorohexane sulfonate (PFHxS) (FSANZ 2017b) Critical review of pharmacokinetic modelling of PFOS and PFOA to assist in

establishing HBGVs for these chemicals (FSANZ 2017c) Immunomodulation by PFASs: a brief literature review (ToxConsult 2017)

Supporting Document 2 Assessment of potential dietary exposure to PFOS, PFOA and PFHxS occurring in foods sampled from contaminated sites (FSANZ 2017d) Occurrence of and dietary exposure to PFOS, PFOA and PFHxS reported in

the literature (FSANZ 2017e) Occurrence of PFOS, PFOA and PFHxS in foods and water sampled from

contaminated sites (FSANZ 2017f) Supporting Document 3 Summary of other controls for perfluorinated chemicals

(FSANZ 2017g); and Supporting Document 4 Criteria for the establishment of maximum levels in food

(FSANZ 2017h).

The overall approach adopted in this assessment is as follows:

Review of the Conceptual Site Model (CSM) for PFAS in environmental media on- and off-base, as relevant to the additional assessment of health and ecological risks (Sections 2 and 3);

Quantification of likely exposures by human receptors to PFAS off-base and the characterisation of human health risks (Section 4);

Qualitative (screening) ecological risk evaluation for the on- and off-base area (Section 5); and

Conclusions (Section 6).

1.4 Available Information This assessment has been conducted based on information and data presented in the following report:

Aurecon (2018), Investigation of per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances at HMAS Albatross, Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessment Addendum – Field Investigation, 22 March 2018.

The relevant data is provided in Appendix A. A copy of Aurecon (2018) is provided in Appendix B. This information has been relied on for assessing human health and environmental risk issues.

No additional groundwater data was collected by Aurecon (2018), hence this assessment does not consider groundwater.


Section 2. Site Description and CSM 2.1 General A full description of the site and CSM is provided in enRiskS (2017). The relevant details are summarised below for context. Additional information is also available in relation to fishing activities within the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek and this information is summarised. All information has been sourced from Aurecon (2018) unless otherwise indicated.

2.2 Site Location HMAS Albatross (the “base”) is located approximately 170 km south of Sydney and approximately 6 km south-west of Nowra in New South Wales. Owned by the Commonwealth of Australia, the base is a significant establishment for operational, training, engineering, administrative and logistic support for naval air squadrons. The base is bounded by Albatross Road to the north and Braidwood Road to the north and west, with access from the north via Albatross or BTU Road. The southern part of the base can be accessed via an unsealed road off Braidwood or Parma Road. The Princess Highway, which connects Nowra to Sydney, is located to the east of the site.

Land surrounding the base is generally zoned as ‘Rural Landscape’ with the Albatross Aviation and Technology Park zoned as ‘Business Park’, and the surrounding roads and some vegetated areas to the west zoned as ‘Infrastructure’.

2.3 Surface Water Surface water runoff from the site is released into the Shoalhaven River or Currambene Creek. These river systems are described below.

2.3.1 Shoalhaven River

The Shoalhaven River i receives surface water runoff from the northern and western portions of the base via Calymea Creek, Cabbage Tree Creek or Flat Rock Creek. Surface water from the northwest portion of the base also discharges to an unnamed tributary of Calymea Creek, named Braidwood Road drain for the purposes of this investigation. Calymea Creek discharges into the Shoalhaven River at surface water sampling location W01/SR-B2 (refer to Figure 1).

2.3.2 Currambene Creek

Currambene Creek receives surface water run-off from the southern and eastern portions of the site. The majority of this surface water is directed in surface drainage lines to discharge into the base’s sewage treatment plant (STP). In addition, Currambene Creek and two other freshwater creeks (Yerriyong Gully and Parma Creek) traverse the southern and eastern portion of the site. Yerriyong Gully and Parma Creek flow along the southern boundary of the site and drain into Currambene Creek at the Princes Highway. Currambene Creek then flows into Jervis Bay at Huskisson, located over 14 km to the east and south of the site. Currambene Creek (and its two major tributaries - Yerriyong Gully and Parma Creek) has been identified to be a primary migration pathway for PFAS from the base.


2.3.3 Recreational Fishing Activities

Shoalhaven River The Shoalhaven River supports a large population of commercial fishers that produce seafood for domestic and export markets. The main biota species targeted within the Shoalhaven River include:

Bream; Dusky flathead; Luderick; Sea mullet; Sand whiting; Silver biddy; Yellowfin bream; School prawn; and Mud crab.

As indicated in Section 1.2, this HHERA Addendum has not considered risks following commercial fishing. However, it is assumed that the biota species targeted by commercial fishers would also be targeted by recreational fishers. Other primary industries in the Shoalhaven River include oyster growing and vegetable farming. The river also supports a tourism industry with activities including recreational fishing, surfing and boating.

A report is available outlining the findings of a 12-month field survey undertaken to investigate recreational fishing activities in the Shoalhaven River (Miles 2011). The study was undertaken between June 2009 and May 2010, and the main findings relevant to the HHERA Addendum are as follows:

2,203 individual fishers were interviewed. Most of the interviews were conducted on the weekend;

A total of 3,056 fishers were recorded during effort counts. It is not known how many of these fishers were repeat fishers;

The total fishing effort was approximately 212,500 hours. This is around 70 hours per fisher assuming there are no repeat fishers: If it is assumed that someone goes fishing for around 4 to 5 hours each occasion,

this equates to approximately 15 fishing trips per year If it is assumed that someone goes fishing for around 2-3 hours, this equates to

approximately 30 fishing trips per year

For repeat fishers, the number of fishing trips per year is unknown.

Approximately half of the study participants were visitors from other regions (with 65% of these people visiting the region specifically to go fishing):

The total catch was in estimated to be 59,952 fish of which around 31% were Bream, 22% were Flathead and 17% were Luderick;

Only 11.7% of fishers were catch and release fishing; Around 85% of fishers were recorded to be fishing from boats with shore fishing comprising

most of the remainder; and


Most fishers interviewed (33.7%) reported that they were not specifically targeting a particular species (i.e. they were targeting anything). When fishers indicated they were targeting a species, the most popular were Flathead (31.3%), Bream (23.6%) and Luderick (4.2%). The remaining fishers were targeting Jewfish (2.3%), Whiting (1.2%), Tailor (1.1%), Leatherjacket (0.9%) and Estuary Perch (0.5%). The main flathead species targeted was Dusky Flathead.

Currambene Creek Several areas of Currambene Creek are zoned for protection by NSW DPI. An extract of the relevant section of the Zoning Map is shown below. The full map is provided in Appendix C.

The majority of upper Currambene Creek east of Princes Highway is a Sanctuary Zone and fishing is prohibited (although recreational boating is allowed). Downstream of the Sanctuary Zone, Currambene Creek is classed as a Habitat Protection Zone and recreational fishing and boating is allowed. Recreational fishing in the Habitat Protection Zone is known to target Yellowfin Bream, Dusky Flathead, Luderick, crabs and Garfish.

Commercial fishing in Currambene Creek is minimal. Commercial fishing is prohibited in the Sanctuary Zone, and limited activities are allowed in the Habitat Protection Zone (e.g. garfishing, line fishing and hand gathering).

Currambene Creek flows into Jervis Bay at Huskisson, which is a Marine Park managed by the NSW DPI. The marine area at Huskisson is used for activities, including fishing, boating, scuba diving, snorkelling and some commercial fishing. In Jervis Bay, outside the Marine Park Sanctuary Zones, both commercial and recreational fishing occurs:

Recreational fishing in Jervis Bay is estimated to catch approximately 21 tonnes per year, targeting Blue and Slimy Mackerel (as bait fish and for human consumption), Dusky Flathead, Sand Whiting, Sand Flathead, Squid, Rock Lobster, Yellowfin Bream, Snapper, Yellowtail Kingfish and Eastern Australian Salmon; and


Species targeted for commercial fishing in Jervis Bay include Sand Whiting, Yellowtail Scad, Striped Grunter, Yellowfin Bream, Common Silver Biddy, Tailor, Longfin Pike, Blue Mackerel, Southern Calamari, Gummy Shark, Snapper, Silver Trevally, Blue Weed-Whiting, Tarwhine, Sole, Australian Salmon, Australian Sardine, Onespot Puller, Mulloway, Sea Mullet, Luderick, Eastern Sea Garfish, Eastern School Whiting, Sweep and Sandy Sprat (Whitebait). Commercial catch from ocean hauling, including Jervis Bay, varies from several hundred to over 25,000 kg.

2.4 Use of Groundwater and Surface Water, Off-Base During the preparation of enRiskS (2017) it was identified that property types in the off-base area included private residence and agriculture. Some of these properties were identified to be using surface water (dam water) for agricultural purposes e.g. stock watering and irrigation. No properties were identified to be extracting and using river water.

The data used in this HHERA Addendum has been collected from further downstream of the investigation area assessed in enRiskS (2017) and there is no further information available in to confirm if water from the Shoalhaven River or Currambene Creek is extracted and used. For the purpose of this HHERA Addendum it has been assumed that river water may be extracted and used for stock watering or irrigation.

Further discussion is provided in Section 4.3.

2.5 Lowland Rainforest Community Four areas of Lowland Rainforest were identified in the south-eastern corner of the base in 2006 by SKM. The key characteristics of this ecological community include (Aurecon 2018):

Distribution within the South Eastern Queensland bioregions and the NSW North Coast and Sydney bioregions;

Soil derived from basalt or alluvium; Altitude of less than 300 m above sea level; Areas of high annual rainfall (>1,300 mm); More than 2 km inland from the coast; Structure of the ecological community is typically a tall (20 to 30 m) closed forest, often with

multiple canopy layers; and Patches of the ecological community typically have high species richness.

Aurecon (2018) also indicates that the Lowland Rainforest at the base has yet to be listed as an endangered ecological community. Regardless, further assessment of the Lowland Rainforest has been undertaken in this HHERA Addendum for completeness.


2.6 Available Data

2.6.1 Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek

Sampling for fish and crustaceans (referred to as “biota” in this assessment) was undertaken by Aurecon (2018) at a total of six locations – three on each of the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek. The locations were as follows (refer to Figure 1):

Shoalhaven River: Approximately 7 km upstream of Calymea Creek and Shoalhaven River confluence,

closer to Burrier, but still in the intertidal zone (location SR-B1). This location is considered a background location for the sediment and surface water sampling, but is not a background location for the biota sampling as some of the fish species identified (e.g. Bass and Mullet) will easily swim distances more than 7 km

Confluence of Calymea Creek and Shoalhaven River (location W01/SR-B2) Approximately 7 km downstream of confluence of Calymea Creek and Shoalhaven

River, closer to Watersleigh (location SR-B3) Currambene Creek:

Existing water/sediment location W04, which is just downstream of the Sanctuary Zone to the east of Princess Highway

Approximately 5.7 km from the mouth of Currambene Creek (location W06/CC-B2) Approximately 2.2 km from the mouth of Currambene Creek, at the oxbow

adjacent/south of Woollamia (sample CC-B3)

Historical surface water and sediment data is also available for location W05 which is located between W04 and W06 on Currambene Creek (enRiskS 2017). This is a total of 3 sampling locations on the Shoalhaven River and 4 sampling locations on Currambene Creek.

A number of biota species were targeted as identified based on advice provided by the NSW Department of Primary Industries (DPI) and NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA). Samples were collected using mesh nets and baited traps. Twelve species were able to be caught from each of the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek, with some variability in species caught between creeks:

Bream, Eastern Sea Garfish, Estuary Perch, Luderick, Mud Crab and Sea Mullet were caught in both waterways;

Australian Bass, Dusky Flathead, Herring, Sand Mullet, Tiger Mullet and Tailor were only caught in the Shoalhaven River; and

Black Sole, Blue Swimmer Crab, Freshwater Prawn, Mulloway, Sand Whiting and Silver Trevally were only caught in Currambene Creek.

Scientific names for the biota species are provided in Aurecon (2018) (Appendix B).

Currambene Creek samples were collected on 30 January 2018 and 4 to 7 February 2018. Shoalhaven River samples were collected on 8 to 10 February 2018. A surface water and sediment sample were also collected from each biota sampling location. Collected biota samples were generally analysed as 2 to 5-part composites of fillets with the skin on (i.e. portions likely to be consumed by humans) unless caught species were too small to fillet or there was insufficient


sample for compositing. All samples were analysed for an extended PFAS suite. One duplicate and one triplicate soil sample was analysed, and 2 triplicate biota samples were analysed. The primary laboratory was Eurofins and the secondary laboratory was the Australian Government National Measurement Institute (NMI).

A summary of species targeted and caught at each sample location is provided in Table 2.1. Sampling locations are shown on Figure 1.

2.6.2 Lowland Rainforest

A total of 8 soil sampling locations were excavated within the 4 distinct areas of the Lowland Rainforest by Aurecon (2018) on 31 January 2018. The locations were as follows:

Southern end of the base: HA95 to HA97; Around Yerriyong Gully: HA92 to HA94 (Southern Area) and HA89 to HA91 (Northern Area);

and Around Currambene Creek: HA86 to HA88.

Soil samples were collected at 0.1 m and 0.5 m depth from each bore except for HA94 and HA95 where shallow bedrock was encountered at 0.2 m depth. Collected samples were analysed for an extended PFAS suite and for Australian Standard Leaching Procedure (ASLP) PFAS at neutral pH. ASLP is a leachate test that is relevant to understanding how PFAS in soil may leach under environmental condition e.g. following rainfall. The primary laboratory was Eurofins and the secondary laboratory was the NMI.

2.6.3 Quality and Completeness of Available Data

Aurecon (2018) provides a review of the Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) produces adopted for the assessment and concluded that the quality of the analytical data is acceptable for interpretative use. A summary of the results for the primary and triplicate biota samples is provided in Table 2.2.

Review of Table 2.2 indicates concentrations of PFOS were reported in the primary samples are 30 to 70% higher than those reported in the triplicate samples. The primary sample results have been adopted for this assessment.

2.7 Conceptual Site Model (CSM) The CSM presented in enRiskS (2017) (as compiled by Aurecon during the conduct of the Detailed Site Investigation) has been updated to reflect the risk issues being further evaluated in this HHERA Addendum and is presented in Table 2.3. The full CSM is provided in enRiskS (2017).

Section 3. Issue Identification – Human Health 3.1 General This purpose of this section of the HHERA Addendum is to review the available surface water, sediment and biota data to identify if the PFAS concentrations reported are sufficiently elevated to require a detailed assessment of risk. The assessment has also considered the existing information relating to the properties and likely fate and transport of PFAS in the environment.

PFAS are a family of man-made fluorine-containing chemicals that do not occur naturally in the environment. The have unique properties that make materials stain- and stick-resistant because the compounds repel oil, grease and water. However, these unique properties also make them persistent in the environment and highly mobile in soil and water.

There are many PFAS compounds however most reviews in the scientific literature, and by the Australian Government, have focused on PFOS, PFOA and PFHxS as these three PFAS are generally considered to be of most concern from an environmental health point of view. This is because of several factors including:

These PFAS are often identified in the highest concentrations in the environment; These PFAS are known to be bioaccumulative (with PFOS usually of most concern from a

bioaccumulation perspective); There is evidence of adverse health effects in experimental studies with animals; and These PFAS have been the focus of the most research historically (with most research

focusing on PFOS and PFOA).

The main exposure pathway for PFAS is the oral (ingestion) pathway (including the ingestion of biota) and this pathway normally drives the evaluation of risk issues. PFAS are not volatile at environmental pH, so the vapour inhalation/vapour intrusion pathway does not require assessment. Although the data is limited, there is also scientific evidence to suggest that the dermal absorption is negligible in comparison to the ingestion pathway.

The review presented here has considered data collected in the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek for characterising PFAS risk issues. Where historical data is available from the same sampling locations, the historical data has also been re-reviewed for completeness.

Figure 1 shows the locations of the sediment, surface water and biota data. Appendix A presents data relevant to PFAS reported in biota, surface water and sediment. Further information relating to the toxicity of PFAS is provided in Section 4 and enRiskS (2017).

3.2 Receptors and Exposure Pathways This HHERA Addendum has focused on potential risks to recreational users of the downstream waters of Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek (at the locations sampled), from concentrations of PFAS in sediment, surface water and biota. In this context, users of the waterways may be exposed to PFAS impacted media during the following activities:

Direct contact with sediment (e.g. during wading in the shallows);


Direct contact with surface water during swimming (called primary contact recreation) and incidental contact during boating and fishing activities (called secondary contact recreation); and

Home consumption of biota from the waterways.

Residents in properties adjacent to the waterways may also be exposed to PFAS impacted media during the following activities:

Use of surface water for irrigation or stock watering; and Home consumption of edible produce caught, grown or raised with PFAS impacted water.

There is no further information is available at this time in relation to the potential use of surface water from the downstream areas of the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek (as sampled by Aurecon 2018) for the above activities. Hence, further quantitative evaluation cannot be undertaken at this time. Further discussion is provided in Section 4.3.

Table 3.1 presents a more detailed overview of the exposure pathways relevant to the assessment of human exposures, as assessed in this HHERA Addendum. The table also outlines the data that is relevant to the assessment of these exposures and outcomes of the screening level assessment undertaken. Text shown in blue indicates that risks have been concluded to be acceptable while text shown in purple indicates that further assessment is required in the HHERA Addendum. Where data is available, this further assessment has been presented in the HHERA.

The screening level assessment is presented in Section 3.5. This assessment has identified the presence of elevated concentrations of PFAS (specifically PFOS) in edible biota in the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek. Further assessment of potential exposures is therefore required (refer to Section 4).

Notes for Table 3.1: “” = Exposure pathway is potentially complete 1 = Dermal uptake of PFAS in soil and water is understood to be limited in comparison to the incidental ingestion

pathways however further assessment has been provided in this HHERA Addendum for completeness. Refer to enRiskS (2017) for further information.


3.3 Review of Sediment Data No PFAS concentrations of concern were identified in off-base sediments during the preparation of enRiskS (2017).

This section of the HHERA Addendum provides a review of the additional sediment data collected by Aurecon (2018). Table 3.2 presents a summary of the sediment concentrations reported in the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek (refer to Figure 1 for sample locations). The data has been presented for PFOS + PFHxS and PFOA, the key PFAS compounds where screening level guidelines are available. The screening level guidelines for soil for a public open space (recreational) setting have been adopted (HEPA 2018). Screening level guidelines for soil have been adopted as there are no screening level guidelines for PFAS in sediment. This is consistent with the approach adopted in enRiskS (2017). Exposures to soil and sediment in a recreational setting are expected to be similar hence the adoption of soil guidelines is appropriate.

In addition, the Total PFAS concentration has been reviewed. For the purpose of screening the total PFAS concentration has been compared against the screening level guideline for PFOS + PFHxS. This is conservative as there is some evidence that not all PFAS are as toxic as PFOS and PFOA, but appropriate for a screening level evaluation as if concentrations of Total PFAS are below the screening level guidelines for PFOS + PFHxS and PFOA then it can be concluded that no further evaluation of any detected PFAS is required.

For sediment, the only PFAS detected was PFOS, so the Total PFAS concentration is equal to the PFOS concentration (and the PFOS + PFHxS concentration).

2 = Includes data reported as part of enRiskS (2017). ND = Not detected at the laboratory limits of reporting: 0.005 to 0.0005 mg/kg.


Review of Table 3.2 indicates the following:

PFAS has not been detected in sediment in the Shoalhaven River; PFOS has been detected in Currambene Creek however there are no concentrations of

PFOS (or any other PFAS) at any location sampled, that exceed the adopted screening guidelines (public open space). Hence there are no human health risk issues of concern for exposures to sediment in Currambene Creek;

Maximum concentrations of PFOS in sediment in Currambene Creek (0.021 mg/kg) are around 50 times below the adopted screening guideline (1 mg/kg). In addition, the adopted screening guideline assumes that 20% of the tolerable daily intake for PFOS comes from sediment (80% of exposure is assumed to come from other pathways). Hence, the adopted screening guideline is adequate to assess potential risks from multiple exposure pathways (if present); and

There is no clear pattern in relation to concentrations of PFOS in sediments in Currambene Creek, concentrations are similar at all locations.

The above assessment does not address potential exposures to PFAS following accumulation in biota, which may then be caught and consumed by users of the waterways. This exposure pathway has been assessed on the basis of the biota data collected, as presented in Section 3.5.

3.4 Review of Surface Water Data PFAS concentrations in excess of the recreational water guidelines were identified in surface water in off-base waterways during the preparation of enRiskS (2017). This included locations SW13-F and SW14-F in Currambene Creek (maximum PFOS + PFHxS concentration of 3.7 µg/L). Detailed calculations undertaken at that time, and presented in enRiskS (2017), indicated that risks associated with average or typical exposures that may occur for adults and children were low, and risks associated with upper estimate exposures by adults were also low. Risks associated with upper estimate exposures by young children were slightly elevated, however, the upper estimate of potential recreational exposures was considered to be overly conservative as the maximum surface water concentration was considered. In addition, young children were assumed to access and swim in the same locations 150 days per year, for 1.5 hours each time, for 5 years and access and use of surface waterways is not expected to occur at this level in these areas.

This section of the HHERA Addendum provides a review of the additional surface water data collected by Aurecon (2018). Data from previous surface water sampling locations that were not resampled by Aurecon (2018) have not been reassessed. This previous data is considered in enRiskS (2017).

Table 3.3 presents a summary of PFAS concentrations reported in surface water in the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek (refer to Figure 1 for locations).

The assessment of recreational exposures including swimming has been undertaken by comparing the concentrations reported in surface water against recreational water guidelines (Department of Health 2017). This is conservative as the Australian guidance for recreational water quality (NHMRC 2008) assumes that 0.2 L water is consumed every day during recreational activities. This is sufficient to cover exposures during swimming/wading as well as other incidental exposures.

PFAS concentrations have been screened against the more conservative guidelines for PFOS+PFHxS. 2 = Includes data reported as part of enRiskS (2017). ND = Not detected at the following laboratory limits of reporting: 0.001 to 0.005 µg/L.


PFAS was not detected in surface water at the background location in the Shoalhaven River; PFOA was not detected in surface water. Hence there are no human health risk issues of

concern for exposures to PFOA in surface water and no further assessment of PFOA is required;

Concentrations of PFAS reported in surface water in the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek are below the recreational water use guidelines. Maximum concentrations of Total PFAS in surface water in the Shoalhaven River (0.013 µg/L) are around 5 times below the adopted screening guideline (0.7 µg/L). Maximum concentrations of Total PFAS in surface water in Currambene Creek (0.3 µg/L) are around 2 times below the adopted screening guideline. Hence there are no human health risk issues of concern for recreational exposures, including any multiple exposures, to PFAS in these surface water bodies and no further assessment is required; and

The available data suggests that PFAS concentrations in surface water decrease with distance downstream, however additional data would be required to confirm this pattern.

In relation to river flow rates and rainfall conditions at the time of the surface water sampling, previous data (from enRiskS 2017; at locations W01 and W04 to W06) was collected during baseflow conditions. Water sampling conducted by Aurecon (2018) in January/February 2018 was undertaken during low flow (dry) conditions. Baseflow and dry conditions are most representative of when people may swim in the waterbodies.

The above assessment does not address potential exposures to PFAS following accumulation in biota in the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek, which may then be caught and consumed by recreational fishers. This exposure pathway has been assessed based on the biota data collected, as presented in Section 3.5.


3.5 Review of Biota Data from Aurecon (2018) The biota data reviewed as part of enRiskS (2017) indicated the potential for elevated exposures to recreational fishers from PFOS concentrations in fish and crustaceans, should fishing occur. However, it was noted that recreational fishing was more likely to occur further downstream of where the biota samples were collected, and there was no biota data available for the downstream locations. Given this, further sampling of edible biota at downstream locations, where recreational fishing is likely to occur, was recommended.

In this HHERA Addendum, the initial assessment of potential human health risks following the consumption of biota, has been undertaken by comparing the reported concentrations of PFOS + PFHxS in the biota collected by Aurecon (2018) to the FSANZ (FSANZ 2017a) trigger levels for PFOS + PFHxS in finfish and crustaceans. It is acknowledged that these trigger levels assume that all the tolerable daily intake is sourced from either fish or crustaceans. In addition, the trigger levels for crustaceans may not be protective of high consumers of some crustaceans (including prawns). However, the trigger levels are still considered suitable for use in the HHERA Addendum as concentrations of PFAS in sediment and surface water in the waterbodies are well below the relevant screening guidelines for recreational use (refer to Section 3.3 and 3.4).

Table 3.4 presents a summary of PFOS + PFHxS concentrations reported in biota caught from the estuarine reaches of the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek (refer to Figure 1 for locations). Samples of yabbie and Australian Bass previously collected from the freshwater areas of Currambene Creek (locations SW13-F and SW14-F), and reviewed as part of enRiskS (2017), have also been included. A review of the data for PFAS in biota shows that the main PFAS detected in fish was PFOS, with PFHxS also detected in 13 species (Yabbie, Mud Crab, Blue Swimmer Crab, Freshwater Prawn, Australian Bass, Silver Trevally, Black Sole, Estuary Perch and Mulloway). PFOA was detected in Yabbie from SW13-F (Currambene Creek upstream; maximum concentrations of 1.6 µg/kg ww well below the FSANZ trigger level of 520 µg/kg ww) but not detected in any other biota species/locations. Some other PFAS were also detected intermittently and are considered in Section 4.4.

Notes: Shading indicates an exceedance of the adopted guideline value based on the maximum concentration. 1 = Ref. FSANZ (2017). “--” = Indicates no data available

Review of Table 3.4 indicates the following in relation to PFOS + PFHxS concentrations in biota:

Concentrations in all fish species sampled, except for Bream, Dusky Flathead, Eastern Sea Garfish and Tailor, exceed the trigger level for finfish;

The highest concentrations from the data collected by Aurecon (2018) were reported in Black Sole (367 µg/kg). This was based on one whole fish analysed. The next highest concentrations were reported in Silver Trevally (39.2 µg/kg) and then Tiger Mullet/Sea Mullet/Mulloway/Estuary Perch (all around 20 µg/kg);

Concentrations exceed the trigger levels for finfish in both the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek, and at all locations;

Four of the fish species (Australian Bass, Estuary Perch, Sea Mullet and Tiger Mullet) were caught from the Shoalhaven River upstream (SR-B1) and downstream of Calymea Creek (SR-B2). In relation to these fish: Concentrations in Australian Bass and Estuary Perch were similar


Concentrations in Sea Mullet and Tiger Mullet were 5 to 10 times higher at the downstream location. On face value this seems to suggest that the base may be the source of the downstream concentrations, however Mullet will easily swim distances more than 7 km (i.e. between sample locations) so the data is not useful for determining the source of the impacts

Concentrations in Blue Swimmer Crabs and Mud Crabs were similar and below the trigger level for crustaceans; and

Concentrations in Freshwater Prawns are below the trigger level for crustaceans, based on one sample of 3 prawns. However, as noted above, the trigger levels for crustaceans may not be protected of prawns. Hence, further assessment of prawns has been undertaken in this HHRA.

In relation to the high concentrations of PFOS + PFHxS which were reported in the Black Sole, Aurecon have indicated that this fish is a carnivore that lies on the floor of the waterway, partially buried in the sand or mud with its eyes protruding. When prey (e.g. an invertebrate or small fish) comes near it, the Black Sole ambushes its prey and eats it. The Black Sole is known to bioaccumulate chemicals from the food it eats and would also typically digest more sediment than other fish species (e.g. the Flathead). A Black Sole will also consume more smaller fish than a Flathead, and its prey are also more likely to also be bottom dwellers. This, alongside the sample analysed (which was a whole fish), may explain why significantly elevated concentrations of PFOS were reported in the Black Sole, as compared to other fish/crustacean species. This is because other organs such as the liver have been analysed and higher concentrations of PFAS may be present in these organs.

A similar species to the Black Sole is the Lemon Tongued Sole, which may also occur in Currambene Creek1. As the behaviour of these fish are similar, Lemon Tongued Sole may also accumulate high levels of PFOS + PFHxS. However, neither species is commonly caught by recreational fishers.2,3

PFOS + PFHxS concentrations were reported below the FSANZ (2017) trigger levels in several species comprising Bream, Dusky Flathead, Eastern Sea Garfish, Tailor, Blue Swimmer Crab and Mud Crab. 7 composites (2 to 5-part) and 1 individual fillet of Bream were collected and analysed from Currambene Creek. This is adequate to conclude that no further assessment is require for Bream from Currambene Creek.

The available data for the remaining species is summarised in Table 3.5 (Shoalhaven River) and Table 3.6 (Currambene Creek). Limited samples were able to be collected for these biota species therefore a Margin of Safety (MOS) approach, which considers the ratio between the maximum reported concentration and the trigger level, has been used to check if further assessment is required. A MOS of 10 has been adopted as the threshold above which further assessment is required. A MOS of 10 allows for an order of magnitude change which is an industry rule of thumb

and considered to be reasonable to account for any uncertainties in the investigation data. This is also in line with the range of concentrations reported in Table 3.4.

Notes: Shading indicates species where it is concluded that further assessment is required.

Review of Table 3.5 indicates that the highest MOS for the fish was reported for Tailor however only one fillet was analysed. On this basis, it is concluded that further, more detailed assessment of Tailor is required. Similarly, further, more detailed assessment is required for Dusky Flathead, Bream and Eastern Sea Garfish, as the MOS is only 1-4 times and limited samples have been able to be collected and analysed. The further, more detailed, assessment, is provided in Section 4.

Although only 2 Mud Crabs have been collected and analysed, the MOS is >10. This indicates there are unlikely to be significant health risk issues associated with the consumption of crab from the Shoalhaven River and no further assessment of Mud Crab is required.

Review of Table 3.6 indicates that a more detailed assessment is required for Eastern Sea Garfish and Freshwater Prawn, as the MOS is only 1-2 times and limited samples have been able to be collected and analysed. The further, more detailed, assessment is provided in Section 4.

Although only a few crabs have been collected and analysed, the MOS is >10. This indicates there are unlikely to be significant health risk issues associated with the consumption of crab from Currambene Creek and no further assessment of crab is required.

3.6 Review of Biota Data from NSW DPI In addition to the sampling conducted by Aurecon, the NSW Department of Primary Industries (DPI) has also assessed PFAS concentrations in edible fish species within the Shoalhaven River. The sampling was conducted over Summer and Autumn in 2015/16 under the NSW PFAS Expanded Sampling Program.


Species targeted in the Shoalhaven River included Luderick, Sea Mullet, School Prawn, Sand Whiting, Yellowfin Bream, Mud Crab, Silver Biddy and Dusky Flathead. These species comprise 97% of the commercial catch (by biomass) in the Shoalhaven River. In addition, Blue Swimmer Crab and Eastern King Prawn were collected from the adjacent Lake Woolumboola, as they are not present in large numbers in the Shoalhaven River. The locations sampled are close to points of discharge from creeks evaluated in the Shoalhaven River, as well as further downstream. Appendix E presents the data provided for this assessment, including a figure showing the sample locations within the Shoalhaven River. Location 6 is near Aurecon location SR-B3, with locations 5 to 1 located progressively downstream.

Table 3.7 presents a summary of the PFAS concentrations reported in edible fish species with comparison against the FSANZ trigger levels.

Concentrations of PFAS reported in crustaceans in the Shoalhaven River area are below the trigger levels. This confirms that no further assessment of crustaceans (including crabs) in the Shoalhaven River is required;

PFOS concentrations reported in fish from sampling by NSW DPI at location 4 exceed the FSANZ trigger level. The maximum concentration of PFOS reported in fish in sampling locations 3 and 2 just exceeds the trigger level; and

PFOS concentrations reported in fish by Aurecon (2018) are similar to (and lower than) concentrations reported by NSW DPI.


In relation to concentrations of PFOS in fish, not all sources of PFOS in the Shoalhaven River have been identified and hence source of the PFOS levels reported in fish in sampling locations 2 to 4 is not known. Any contribution from the base has not been not fully defined.

3.7 Comparative Review of Investigation Data for PFOS This section of the Addendum HHERA reviews the concentrations of PFOS reported in sediment, surface water and biota in the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek in January/February 2018 to see if any patterns are evident. Only three data points on one sampling occasions are available for all three media and any patterns that are identified from the review of the information should be considered in this context.


Concentrations of PFOS in the Shoalhaven River are shown on Graph 1.

Graph 1. PFOS in sediment, surface water and biota in the Shoalhaven River, January/February 2018

PFOS was not detected in sediment in the Shoalhaven River so no conclusions can be drawn in relation to patterns between sediment and surface water/biota.

Concentrations of PFOS in surface water increase as you move downstream, after the entrance of Calymea Creek. Concentrations of PFOS in surface water appear to be linked to concentrations of PFOS in biota, with the maximum biota concentrations reported at SR-B2 and SR-B3 where surface water concentrations were highest. However, concentrations in biota were generally similar at all


three sampling locations and this is apparent from a review of average concentrations. In addition, concentrations of PFOS in surface water were low in January/February 2018, which makes it difficult to draw any firm conclusions.


Concentrations of PFOS in Currambene Creek are shown on Graph 2.

Concentrations of PFOS in Black Sole (347 µg/kg) have not been presented on the graph. This fish species behaves differently to most of the other fish sampled as it buries in the mud rather than swimming in the water column. Hence, the data point is considered an outlier and has been excluded from the graph (but included in the discussion below).

Graph 2. PFOS in sediment, surface water and biota in Currambene Creek, January/February 2018

Graph 3 shows that PFOS concentrations in surface water decrease as you move downstream in Currambene Creek. Conversely, PFOS concentrations in biota (especially maximum concentrations) increase as you move downstream. PFOS was not detected in sediment at W04 but was detected at similar concentrations at CC-B2 and CC-B3. The Black Sole with the elevated PFOS concentrations was caught at location CC-B2 (no sediment dwelling fish were caught at CC-B3).

It is however noted that PFOS concentrations in surface water are within the same order or magnitude, so any patterns that appear to be present may be due to variability in the dataset


caused by sampling and analysis protocols or other factors, rather than actual correlations between PFOS in the various media. Further, and like the data for the Shoalhaven River, average concentrations of PFOS in biota are similar across all sampling locations.


Section 4. Assessment of Human Health Risks 4.1 Approach to Quantifying Risks to Human Health Based on the review of risk issues presented in Section 3, the consumption of some fish species and freshwater prawns containing PFAS requires a more detailed assessment of potential risks to human health.

The quantification of risks to human health has been undertaken in accordance with industry best practice and guidance (enHealth 2012a; NEPC 1999 amended 2013). This requires the following:

Quantification of exposure – this is how much PFAS can enter the body following the consumption of fish and crustaceans containing PFAS. The exposure assessment is undertaken to be representative of a particular population and does not calculate the exposure for a given individual. Populations are grouped to reflect common activities undertaken by that group (such as children) or by the location of the population in relation to the contaminant distribution. For this reason, it is important that the exposure assessment be undertaken in such a way that the most sensitive individuals within the potentially exposed population are adequately protected. The following steps have been followed to estimate the exposure or intake of PFAS:

Identification of exposure parameters for each of the identified exposure pathways and receptors. These are values that describe the physical and behavioural parameters relevant to the potentially exposed population and the pathway of exposure. Some examples include fish ingestion rate (e.g. amount of fish consumed each day), exposure frequency (i.e. days per year that fish from the Shoalhaven River or Currambene Creek is consumed), exposure duration (e.g. number of years that fish is consumed) and body weight. Where available, exposure parameters have been obtained from Australian sources (enHealth 2012b);

Estimation of the chemical concentration in fish and crustaceans. This is available from the sampling and analysis of biota samples from the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek; and

Calculation of the daily chemical intake or exposure concentration using the relevant exposure parameters and chemical concentration.

Exposures that may occur following the consumption of fish and crustaceans have been calculated for adults and young children, noting that children aged 2 to 3 years are considered to be the most sensitive receptors (NEPC 1999 amended 2013), young children have a lower body weight, so their intake per unit body weight is higher.

The assessment of risks is also limited to the waterways where sampling was undertaken, and the extent of sampling within these waterways.

Quantification of the hazard or toxicity of the PFAS compounds evaluated – this is where tolerable daily intake (TDI) values are identified for characterising the toxicity of the PFAS compounds evaluated in this assessment i.e. PFOS and PFHxS (PFOA was not detected in biota).

Consistent with reviews by other authorities (EFSA 2008; enHealth 2016; USEPA 2016a, 2016b), FSANZ has determined a TDI for PFOS on the basis of data derived from animal studies, that show exposure to these compounds can cause liver toxicity and tumours and reproductive and


developmental effects. The available epidemiological studies have not provided sufficient evidence of a link between exposure to PFOS and PFHxS and any cancer type in human beings.

In relation to PFHxS, FSANZ determined there was insufficient information to establish a TDI for PFHxS. In the absence of a TDI, FSANZ agrees with enHealth (enHealth 2016) that using the TDI for PFOS is likely to be conservative and protective of public health. This means that PFHxS and PFOS should be summed for the purposes of exposure assessment and risk characterisation.

The TDIs adopted by FSANZ for the assessment PFOS + PFHxS are summarised in Table 4.1. This table also includes the background intakes, based on the reviews presented by ToxConsult (ToxConsult 2016a, 2016b) adopted for the characterisation of risk.

Table 4.1: Summary of toxicity reference values adopted for PFOS and PFHxS

PFAS Compound TDI Background intake Reference PFOS + PFHxS 0.02 µg/kg/day 0.0014 µg/kg/day (7% of the TDI) (FSANZ 2017b)

A detailed summary of the toxicity of PFOS + PFHxS is provided in enRiskS (2017).

Risk characterisation – this combines the exposure/intake and toxicity information to calculate a risk. For the assessment of PFAS, this has been undertaken on the basis of a threshold TDI.

The characterisation of risk has involved the calculation of a hazard quotient (HQ), which is the ratio of the estimated intake (or exposure concentration, as a daily average dose) to the TDI (expressed as an acceptable daily dose), with consideration for background intakes4. The HQs are then summed over all exposure pathways to calculate a Hazard Index (HI), which represents the potential risks associated with cumulative exposures from multiple pathways (where these are of potential significance). These calculations are as follows:

Hazard quotient (HQ)(e.g. ingestion or dermal) = Daily chemical intake(TRV-Background)

Where there is only one exposure pathway of relevant, the HQ is equal to the HI.

The interpretation of an acceptable HI needs to recognise an inherent degree of conservatism that is built into the establishment of appropriate TRVs adopted (using many uncertainty factors) and the exposure assessment. Hence, in reviewing and interpreting the calculated HI the following is noted:

4 Background intakes are intakes of a chemical that are derived from sources other than the contamination being assessed. This may include dietary intakes and intakes from drinking water or urban air. Refer to enRiskS (2017) for further discussion.

∑=PFASandpathwaysAll

HQHIHazard )(


A HI less than or equal to a value of 1 (where the total intake or exposure is less than or equal to the TDI) represents no cause for concern as outlined in NEPM guidance (NEPC 1999 amended 2013); and

A HI greater than 1 requires further consideration within the context of the assessment undertaken. The calculation infers that there is the potential for the total intake of PFAS to be higher than the TDI. This does not necessarily mean that harm will occur as the intake parameters (e.g. amount of fish ingested) are conservative, and the TDI has inherent safety margins incorporated. The likelihood of harm occurring increases with the extent to which intakes exceed the TDI (i.e. with higher HIs).

The calculation of a HI assumes that the toxicological effects of all the chemicals evaluated are additive. This means that the chemicals act in the same way in the body and affect the same target tissues. As this assessment has considered exposures to PFAS compounds, it is reasonable to assume that additive effects may occur.

4.2 Consumption of Fish and Crustaceans

4.2.1 General

Intakes of PFOS + PFHxS from the consumption of fish and crustaceans have been calculated based on the following equation:

Intakef=Cf x IRf x FI x Bo x EF x ED

BW x AT …Equation 4.1

Where

Intakef = Daily intake of PFOS + PFHxS from fish or crustaceans (µg/kg/day)

Cf = PFOS + PFHxS concentration in edible fish tissue (µg/kg)

IRm = Fish or crustacean ingestion rate (kg/day)

FI = Fraction ingested from contaminated source (unitless)

Bo = Oral bioavailability (unitless)

EF = Exposure frequency (days/year)

ED = Exposure duration (years)

AT = Averaging time (days)

BW = Body weight (kg)

Table 4.3 presents a summary of the fish and crustaceans in the Shoalhaven River where exposures may be elevated if these species are regularly caught and consumed. The calculations presented have been based on the following upper estimate of the fish and crustacean consumption rates:

Fish: 123 g for adults and 73 g for children per day: and Crustaceans: 63 g for adults and 21 g for children per day.


The assumed serving size of fish is roughly equivalent to the serving sizes assumed by NSW EPA (150 g for adults and 75 g for children).5 Exposures based on average consumption rates are around 3 to 4 times lower than those based on upper estimates. Exposures that are not elevated based on average consumption rates are indicated with a “*”.

Full calculations are presented in Appendix D.

Risks associated with upper estimate consumption rates by adults are low, with the HI less than 1 for all species except Sea Mullet (HI = 1.9) and Tiger Mullet (HI = 1.7). All calculated HI are <2 indicated that exposures are unlikely to be significantly elevated. Further, these HI assume that 100% of an adult’s diet of fish for the whole year comes from the Shoalhaven River, and an adult consumes 123 g/day fish every day. It is highly unlikely that this would occur in real life. HI based on more likely exposures, either average fish intakes or 50% of

dietary intakes from the Shoalhaven River, are below the acceptable level of 1. Exposures over the summer holidays are also acceptable;

Risks associated with upper estimate exposures by children, where 100% of the diet is sourced from the Shoalhaven River, are elevated for 6 fish species: Australian Bass Dusky Flathead Herring Sand Mullet Sea Mullet Tiger Mullet

This assumes that a child eats 73 g/day of fish and sources 100% of their diet of fish from the Shoalhaven River. It is highly unlikely that this would occur in real life. HI based on more likely exposures (i.e. 30% of fish diet from the Shoalhaven River) are elevated only for Sea Mullet and Tiger Mullet, and exposures are not elevated based on average intakes or intakes over the summer holidays.

If it is assumed a child eats 73 g/day fish and sources 50% of their diet from the Shoalhaven River, exposures are also slightly elevated (HI = 1.1 to 1.4) for Australian Bass, Herring and Sand Mullet. Exposures are not elevated based on average fish intakes, or for intakes over the summer holidays.

Overall, the calculations indicate that except for 2 species of Mullet, exposures by adults and children are unlikely to be elevated based on average fish consumption rates. Exposures by adults and children are also unlikely to be elevated based on upper bound fish consumption rates, unless over 50% of the diet of fish is sourced from the Shoalhaven River (in which case exposures by children may be elevated).


Table 4.4 presents a summary of the fish and crustaceans in Currambene Creek where exposures may be elevated if these species are regularly caught and consumed. The calculations based on the upper estimate of the fish and crustacean consumption rate have been presented. For adults this is 123 g/day of fish and 63 g/day of crustacea. For children, this is 73 g/day of fish and 21 g/day of crustacea. Exposures based on average consumption rates are around 3 to 4 times lower than those based on upper estimates. Exposures that are not elevated based on average consumption rates are indicated with a “*”.

Review of Table 4.4 indicates the following in relation to risks associated with the consumption of fish and crustaceans from upstream (freshwater) locations SW13-F and SW14-F:

Risks associated with the consumption of Australian Bass are significantly elevated for both adults and children; and

Risks associated with the consumption of Yabbie are elevated for adults and children assuming 100%, 50% and 30% consumption rates, but are not elevated for occasional intakes such as intakes over the summer holidays.

Review of Table 4.4 indicates the following in relation to risks associated with the consumption of fish and crustaceans from downstream (estuarine) locations where recreational fishing is more likely to occur:

Risk associated with the consumption of Eastern Sea Garfish and Sand Mullet are below the acceptable level for both adults and children;


Risks associated with the consumption of Black Sole are significantly elevated for both adults and children. Black Sole are rarely caught and consumed (and extremely unlikely to be consumed whole) and in relation to this the following is noted: An adult could consume 120 to 150 g/day of Black sole on 10 to 11 days/year before

the acceptable risk level of 1 was reached A child could consume 73 g/day of Black Sole on 3-4 days/year before the

acceptable risk level of 1 was reached Exposures are elevated based on average consumption rates

As part of the PFAS investigation for RAAF Base East Sale6, Carp were collected and PFOS + PFHxS concentrations were measured in both the fillets and remainder of the carcass. Concentrations in the fillets were in the range 18 to 72 µg/kg and concentrations in the remainder of the carcass were in the range 240 to 470 µg/kg. This confirms that concentrations of PFOS + PFHxS reported in the whole Black Sole in Currambene Creek are likely to overestimate concentrations reported in the edible portions. However, only 1 Black Sole has been caught and analysed whole, hence any variability in PFAS concentrations, and the actual PFOS concentration in the edible portions of the Black Sole, is not known. Overall, the interpretation of health risks based on a single data point is likely to be limited.

Risks associated with the consumption of Silver Trevally are also significantly elevated, especially for maximum possible or reasonable maximum exposures (i.e. 100% or 50% of a populations diet of fish comes from Currambene Creek). If it assumed that Silver Trevally is only caught and consumed over the Summer Holidays or Weekends (i.e. 8% to 30% of a population’s diet), risks to adults are below the acceptable level. Risks to children are 2 to 3 times the acceptable level based on the upper estimate consumption rate and below the acceptable level based on the average consumption rate;

Risks associated with the consumption of Estuary Perch, Sand Whiting, Mulloway and Freshwater Prawn are elevated based on maximum possible or reasonable maximum exposures. If it assumed that these species are only caught and consumed over the Summer Holidays or Weekends, risks for adults are below the acceptable level. Risks for children are at or below the acceptable level based on the upper estimate consumption rate and below the acceptable level based on the average consumption rate;

The majority of the elevated exposures relate to location CC-B2; No elevated exposures were identified for fish consumed from location W04 except for

slightly elevated risks to children (HI = 1.6) if 100% of the diet of fish for the year is Sea Mullet with the upper estimate consumption rate. Risks based on the average consumption rate are acceptable for 100% of the diet;

Similarly, risk calculated for downstream location CC-B3 were generally below the acceptable level except for: Consumption of Estuary Perch by children based on the upper estimate consumption

rate and 100% of the diet (HI = 2.9)

Risks based on the average consumption rate are acceptable for both species.

4.3 Consideration of Multiple Exposures A discussed in Section 2.3, this HHERA Addendum has assumed that river water may be extracted and used for stock watering or irrigation at the surface water sampling locations investigated by Aurecon (2018). This is conservative but appropriate as there is no information on whether surface water is extracted and used.

The screening assessment for surface water data in Section 3.4 identified that there were no concentrations of PFOS + PFHxS above the recreational water use guidelines. Hence, there are no risk issues of concern associated with incidental contact exposures that may occur during the extraction and use of surface water (e.g. maintenance of pumping infrastructure, children playing in wading pools and sprinklers). However, where concentrations of PFAS are above the drinking water guidelines, the use of surface water for the irrigation of fruit and vegetables and crops or stock watering requires further evaluation.

Table 4.5 presents a summary of PFAS concentrations reported in surface water in the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek with the drinking water guidelines (refer to Figure 1 for locations).

Review of Table 4.5 indicates the following in relation to PFAS in surface water:

Concentrations PFOA in surface water are below the drinking water guidelines. Hence there are no human health risk issues of concern for exposures to PFOA in surface water and no further assessment of PFOA is required;

Concentrations of PFAS reported in surface water at the confluence of Calymea Creek and the Shoalhaven River exceeded the drinking water guidelines when sampled in 2017 (refer to enRiskS 2017). When this location was re-sampled in 2018, reported concentrations were below the drinking water guidelines;

Concentrations of PFAS reported in surface water downstream in the Shoalhaven River are below the drinking water guidelines. However, based on the similarity of concentrations reported at this location and SR-B2, PFAS concentrations may exceed the drinking water guidelines seasonally;

Concentrations of PFAS reported in surface water in Currambene Creek exceed the drinking water guidelines at 2 of the 4 sampling locations; and

The data indicates there is some variability in PFAS concentrations which is consistent with what is known about the behaviour of PFAS in the environment (i.e. its highly leachable nature).

Whether surface water can be extracted and used will also depend on the saltiness of the water noting that both the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek are estuarine in their downstream reaches. The total dissolved solids (TDS) concentration in surface water at the Aurecon (2018) sampling locations is summarised in Table 4.6. The suitability of water for use for irrigation and stock water based on the TDS concentrations (ANZECC 1992; ANZECC/ARMCANZ 2000), a reported PFOS + PFHxS concentrations, have also been indicated.

Notes for Table 4.6: Shading indicates a potentially complete exposure pathway based on the salinity (TDS) of the water and the PFOS + PFHxS concentration. 1 = Total dissolved solids (TDS) concentration = electrical conductivity (EC) x 0.64, rounded to the nearest 100

mg/L. 2 = Refer to Table 4.5 and Appendix B. 3 = Ref. ANZECC (1992). 4 = Ref. ANZECC/ARMCANZ (2000). Review of Table 4.6 indicates the following:

The salinity of the water in the Shoalhaven River at location SR-B1 is such that the water quality is suitable for use as irrigation and stock water. This is independent of whether or not PFAS is present in the water;

The salinity of the water in the Shoalhaven River at location SR-B2 is such that the water quality is suitable for watering sheep, however is unsuitable for watering other stock or for irrigation; and

The salinity of the water in the Shoalhaven River location SR-B3 and Currambene Creek is such that the water quality is not suitable for irrigation or stock watering.

PFAS was not detected in surface water at location SR-B1 (Shoalhaven River). Hence, there are no health risk issues associated with the extraction of surface water containing PFAS from SR-B1, for use for irrigation or stock water.

In relation to location SR-B2 (Shoalhaven River), sheep can tolerate up to 10,000 mg/L TDS. Hence, it is possible that someone may want to use Shoalhaven River water for their sheep. Concentrations of PFOS + PFHxS in surface water at this location vary seasonally. Maximum PFOS + PFHxS concentrations (1.2 µg/L) are around 20 times the drinking water guidelines (0.07 µg/L) however minimum concentrations (0.0057 µg/L) are around 10 times below the guideline.

enRiskS (2017) included a detailed assessment (including calculations) of the potential risks to human health following the home consumption of sheep meat and offal raised on PFAS impacted water. Based on the calculations undertaken in enRiskS (2017), health risks were concluded to be acceptable for concentrations of PFOS + PFHxS in water up to 0.23 µg/L. The calculations were based on worst-case assumptions for the consumption of sheep offal by adults. At a PFOS + PFHxS water concentration of 0.23 µg/L:

Risks to children consuming sheep meat were 10 to 500 times below the acceptable level (Hazard Index = 0.002 to 0.1);

Risks to adults consuming sheep meat were 20 to >1,000 times below the acceptable level (Hazard Index = 0.0008 to 0.08); and

Risks to adults consuming sheep offal based on average and reasonable maximum exposure (RME) assumptions were 10 to 30 times below the acceptable level (HI = 0.03 to 0.1).

As the concentration of PFOS + PFHxS in water at SR-B2 is 2 times lower than that assumed in enRiskS (2017) (as outlined above), it can be inferred that risks following the home consumption of sheep meat and offal would also be acceptable and would be 2 times lower than that outlined above.


On this basis, no unacceptable risks to human health are identified if surface water from SR-B2 is extracted and used for watering sheep.

Surface water from the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek would not be suitable for use for any other purposes (e.g. industrial use or aquaculture), without further assessment.

4.4 Uncertainties The main uncertainties identified during the conduct of this HHERA Addendum are discussed below. Overall, the available information is considered adequate for informing management actions for the protection of human health in the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek.

4.4.1 Fishing Patterns

The quantification of exposure has adopted several conservative assumptions regarding activities that the local community may undertake and how these activities may result in exposure to PFAS.

There is limited information in relation to how many times recreational fishers may catch fish from the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek (i.e. how much of their diet of fish may come from these waterways), and this assumption is an important input for the risk calculations.

In this assessment risk calculations have been based on a range of possible exposure scenarios, including a scenario where someone (adult or child) sources 100% of their diet of fish from the Shoalhaven River or Currambene Creek, down to a scenario where someone only consumes fish over the Summer Holidays (i.e. 8% of a populations diet; which may be representative of a tourist visiting the area). While the maximum exposure scenario is unlikely to be representative of actual exposures, it is possible that a fisher may consume fish from the waterways every day for the Summer Holidays or every weekend. Hence, the exposure assumptions adopted for the HHERA Addendum are considered reasonable for characterising likely exposures and informing the need for management.

A further fishing survey (of fishers) could be considered, however Aurecon have indicated that some fishers were unwilling to discuss their fishing activities when approached during the Aurecon (2018) data collection program. A further fishing survey may also not be able to rule out the possibility that a local fisher may catch and consume fish from the waterways every weekend, most weekends or while on holidays.

4.4.2 Biota Sampling

A limited number of samples of some species (e.g. Mud Crabs, Blue Swimmer Crabs, Freshwater Prawn, Sand Mullet and Tailor) have been able to be collected by Aurecon (2018). Some species (e.g. Herring, Black Sole, Eastern Sea Garfish) were also analysed as whole fish rather than fish fillets. The analysis of whole fish is expected to overestimate the concentrations of PFAS that may be present in the edible portions, as other organs such as the liver are analysed and higher concentrations of PFAS may be present in these organs. Some species such as Herring are also more likely to be used as bait rather than consumed by humans. Hence, the overall approach adopted for the HHERA Addendum is conservative.


It is understood that Aurecon (2018) went to significant effort to target and obtain appropriate biota samples for the HHERA Addendum, and the samples obtained are likely to be representative of the availability of fish/crustaceans at the time of sampling. Hence, the available data is generally representative of the availability of species in the waterway at the time of sampling (and by inference the probability that the species may be caught by recreational fishers). For example, only 2 Blue Swimmer Crabs were above to be caught in Currambene Creek (no Blue Swimmer Crabs could be caught in the Shoalhaven River) which makes sense as these crabs are not known to be present in large numbers in these waterways. There is also adequate data for the assessment of 1 of the 3 main target fish species in the Shoalhaven River (Bream) and there is some data for the remaining 2 species (Luderick and Dusky Flathead) to confirm that the current NSW Government fishing advisories are appropriate.

Overall, the available information is considered adequate for informing management actions for the protection of human health in the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek.

4.4.3 Presence of Other PFAS

As discussed in Section 3.1, this HHERA Addendum has focused on health risks from PFOS and PFHxS as these PFAS are generally considered to be of most concern from an environmental health point of view, especially where edible products are concerned. No PFOA has been detected in environmental samples analysed by Aurecon (2018) so no further evaluation of PFOA is necessary.

For sediment and surface water data, the Total PFAS concentration has been screened against the guidelines for PFOS + PFHxS and no risk issues have been identified. This means that no further assessment of the other PFAS is required for sediment and surface water.

The main PFAS detected in biota samples collected by Aurecon (2018) was PFOS, the following other PFAS were detected:

PFHxS: 11 samples; PFNA: 1 sample; PFHpS: 2 samples; N-MeFOSE: 1 sample; and FOSA: 1 sample.

The available data is summarised in Table 4.7.


Table 4.7: Summary of Concentrations of PFAS Other than PFOS in Biota

Notes: Refer to Appendix A and Appendix B for further details Concentrations of PFHxS have been considered in the risk calculations along with PFOS. Hence, no further evaluation of PFHxS is required.

PFHpS and PFNA were detected in Black Sole however exposures have been calculated to be potentially elevated for Black Sole based on PFOS and PFHxS concentrations. Hence, the detection of PFHpS and PFNA in Black Sole does not affect HHERA Addendum outcomes.

PFHpS has also been detected in low concentrations in Freshwater Prawn. However, concentrations of PFOS + PFHxS comprise 98% of the Total PFAS concentrations for the Freshwater Prawn sample. Hence, the detection of PFHpS in Freshwater Prawn does not affect HHERA Addendum outcomes. Similarly, FOSA concentrations in Sand Whiting make up only 5% of the Total PFAS concentration (with PFOS contributing the rest). Concentrations of Total PFAS in Sand Whiting are also above the FSANZ trigger level without consideration of FOSA. Hence, the detection of FOSA in Sand Whiting does not affect HHERA Addendum outcomes.

The detection of N-MeFOSE in Estuary Perch is interesting and unusual as N-MeFOSE was detected in the sample of Estuary Perch from SR-B1 but was not detected in samples from SR-B2 or SR-B3. Also, at SR-B1, concentrations of N-MeFOSE comprised 78% of the Total PFAS reported (concentration of 5.1 µg/kg; the remaining 22% of the Total PFAS concentration comprised PFOS at 1.4 µg/kg). Hence, health risks calculated based on PFOS may not be representative of health risks from Total PFAS. N-MeFOSE is a PFOS precursor which means it may degrade to PFOS in the environment.

If it is assumed the concentration of PFOS in Estuary Perch is 6.5 µg/kg ww, the revised risk estimates are obtained for the upper bound estimates:

Exposures 365 days/year: risks are acceptable for adults and 1-2 times the acceptable level for children (HI = 1.7);

Exposures 200 days/year: risks are acceptable for adults and at the acceptable level for children; and

Exposures over the weekend or Summer Holidays: risks are acceptable for adults and children.


This is a similar level of health risk to that calculated for other fish species (Sea Mullet, Sand Mullet and Dusky Flathead) in the Shoalhaven River (refer to Table 4.3). Hence, no effect on HHERA Addendum outcomes is identified.


Section 5. Screening Ecological Risk Assessment 5.1 General This section presents a screening level assessment of potential ecological risks relevant to the following on- and off-base environments:

Potential risks to terrestrial ecological receptors within Lowland Rainforest; and Potential risks to aquatic ecological receptors within the Shoalhaven River and Currambene

Creek.

The assessment is a screening level assessment, as it is largely based on the comparison of PFAS concentrations reported in various media with screening level guidelines, available and relevant to the protection of the terrestrial or aquatic ecosystems.

In relation to the assessment of potential ecological risk issues relevant to PFAS, it is important to note that PFAS are chemically and biologically stable in the environment, are mobile (in water and can easily leach from soil to water) and are persistent and bioaccumulative. Hence the assessment presented has considered issues relevant to the direct toxicity of PFAS, as well as the potential for bioaccumulation and secondary poisoning (i.e. where predators are harmed through the consumption of prey or food sources that contain PFAS).

5.2 Lowland Rainforest In relation to on-base terrestrial environments, PFAS in soil reported in the top 2 m (consistent with advice in the ASC NEPM) has been compared against screening criteria relevant to the protection of terrestrial environments (HEPA 2018). These guidelines relate to direct toxicity to flora and fauna species, as well as indirect pathways (e.g. consumption by higher level predators and off-site migration). The main PFAS detected in soil in the Lowland Rainforest Community was PFOS, with PFHxS also detected in 2 soil samples. Guidelines are only available for PFOS hence the focus of this review is PFOS.

Table 5.1 presents a summary of PFOS concentrations reported in soil in the top 2 m in the Lowland Rainforest Community. The table also presents a comparison against the adopted screening criteria.

Average only calculated when 3 sample results were available. “--” = No screening guideline adopted. 1 = Ref. HEPA (2018). ND = Not detected at the following laboratory limits of reporting: 0.005 mg/kg


PFOS was not detected in soil in 2 of the 4 Lowland Rainforest areas – at the southern end of the base and at the southern end of Yerriyong Gully. Hence there are no environmental health risk issues of concern for exposures to soil in these 2 Lowland Rainforest areas; and

Maximum concentrations of PFOS reported in soil in the remaining 2 Lowland Rainforest area were below the screening level guideline for direct toxicity however exceeded the guideline for bioaccumulation and off-site transport. The affected communities are those adjacent to Currambene Creek and at the northern end of Yerriyong Gully. This confirms that there is the potential for PFAS exposures by higher order predators to be elevated in these two areas.

The screening guideline for bioaccumulation (0.01 mg/kg) was derived by Environment Canada (Environment Canada 2017). This guideline is the lowest value from a set of values derived for the protection of soil ingestion by primary, secondary and tertiary order consumers. The relevant guidelines are as follows:

Primary consumer – 2.2 mg/kg; Secondary consumer – 0.01 mg/kg; and Tertiary consumer – 0.6 mg/kg.

Concentrations of PFOS in soil in the Lowland Rainforest are below the guidelines for primary and tertiary consumers, however further review is required for secondary consumers.

The food chain used to derive the guideline for secondary consumers by Environment Canada was noted to be complex, involving up to 3 trophic levels. Guidelines were derived for an insectivorous mammal (Common Shrew; guideline of 0.012 mg/kg), omnivorous mammal (Deer Mouse; guideline of 0.17 mg/kg) and omnivorous bird (American Robin; guideline of 0.33 mg/kg). The low guideline for the Common Shrew was due to the low bodyweight, high food ingestion rate and high proportion of the diet (95%) that was insects/invertebrates, and which are known to accumulate PFOS to the greatest extent.


Concentrations of PFOS in soil in the Lowland Rainforest are below the guideline for omnivorous birds and mammals but exceed the guideline for insectivorous mammals. The Common Shrew (the insectivorous mammal on which the Environment Canada guideline is based) is not found in Australia however a similar species might be the Antechinus which is also known as the Marsupial Mouse (marsupials are a sub-class of mammals). Two species of Antechinus – the Yellow-footed Antechinus (Antechinus flavipes) and the Brown Antechinus (Antechinus stuartii) may be present at the base. These Antechinus are around 35 to 56 g in weight for males and 20 to 34 g for females. They eat a variety of insects, spiders and centipedes, as well as some flowers, nectar, small birds, small reptiles/frogs and may also eat House Mice. Both species are short-lived (males typically 1 year, females up to 2-3 years).7

In relation to the significance of the potential risk issues for insectivorous marsupials such as the Antechinus, concentrations of PFOS in surface soil (0.1 m depth), which is the soil most likely to be accessed, are only 2-4 times the screening level guideline for bioaccumulation (average and maximum concentrations respectively). Concentrations in deeper soil (0.5 m depth) are less than 10 times the screening level guideline and are less likely to be accessed. This does not suggest the potential for significantly elevated exposures due to bioaccumulation, especially if the Antechinus population forages over an area larger than that impacted with PFOS. Further, the Antechinus species that may be present at the base are not listed on the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 List of Threatened Fauna.8

It is however noted that there is limited information in general in relation to the specific dietary preferences of Australian marsupials and/or how they may be affected by PFOS concentrations in their diet. There is also limited information in relation to the small insectivorous mammal species that may be present in the Lowland Rainforest at the base.

In addition, and as noted in enRiskS (2017), the presence of PFAS in soil leachate in 2 areas of the Lowland Rainforest also remains an ongoing source of PFAS to the off-site environment.

5.3 Aquatic Environments This section provides a review of concentrations of PFOS in surface water and biota in the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek with the relevant screening guidelines for the protection of aquatic environments. Consistent with enRiskS (2017), the following guidelines have been adopted:

The 95% species protection value for freshwater has been adopted for the assessment of effects due to direct toxicity. Comparison of PFOS concentrations in surface water against the 95% species protection level is presented in Table 5.2; and

The Environment Canada (2017) guidelines for birds and mammals consuming aquatic biota have been adopted for the assessment of effects due to bioaccumulation. Comparison of PFOS concentrations in biota against the Environment Canada guidelines is presented in Table 5.3. A further discussion of the relevance of these guidelines to the off-base area is provided in enRiskS (2017).

The 99% species protection value for freshwater has not been adopted for the assessment of effects due to bioaccumulation as aquatic biota sampling has been undertaken. HEPA (2018) lists this value as available for use however indicates that the guideline is “around the trace limit of reporting (LOR) currently offered by commercial laboratories. As such, interpreting and applying this screening value may present challenges in some contexts. The recommended approach is to sample and analyse aquatic biota to account for bioaccumulation and comparison with relevant criteria (see Environmental guidelines and criteria section).”

It is also noted that the majority of the biota data is for fish fillets and not whole fish, which may underestimate the concentrations of PFOS in the whole fish that may be consumed by higher order predators (due to the accumulation of PFOS in fish liver for example).

Review of Table 5.2 and Table 5.3 indicates the following:

Of the 6 surface water samples collected from Currambene Creek: Concentrations of PFOS at one location W04 were slightly above the adopted criteria

relevant to the protection of the aquatic environment (reported concentration of 0.15 µg/L compared to a guideline of 0.13 µg/L; as presented in Table 5.2)

Concentrations of PFOS at location W05 were at the guideline Concentrations of PFOS in the remaining 4 sample were below the guideline

This does not suggest the potential for significant effects due to direct toxicity.

Concentrations of PFOS reported in surface water at downstream locations in Currambene Creek, and at all locations in the Shoalhaven River, are below the adopted guideline relevant to the protection of the aquatic environment (as presented in Table 5.2). This confirms that there are unlikely to be adverse effects due to direct toxicity in these areas; and

Concentrations of PFOS reported in biota in Currambene Creek and the Shoalhaven River exceed the criteria relevant for assessing bioaccumulation, including effects on higher level consumers, birds and mammals. The relevant data is further summarised in Table 5.4.

Grey shading indicates PFOS concentration exceeds the guideline by up to 2 times. Blue shading indicates PFOS concentration exceeds the guideline by >2 times. Orange shading indicates PFOS concentration exceeds the guideline by >5 times. Purple shading indicates PFOS concentration exceeds the guideline by >10 times.

Review of Table 5.4 indicates the following key biota species in relation to potential risks to fish/crustacea eating birds and mammals (i.e. potential effects following bioaccumulation):

Birds and mammals in the Shoalhaven River: Sea Mullet and Tiger Mullet; and Birds and mammals in Currambene Creek: Black Sole, Silver Trevally and Freshwater

Prawn.

As noted above, Black Sole is a sediment dwelling predator and hence is less likely to be eaten by aquatic birds and mammals. However, the other fish/crustacea species may be caught and consumed.

In relation to concentrations of PFOS in fish, not all sources of PFOS in the Shoalhaven River have been identified and hence any contribution from the base has not been not fully defined.

In addition, the majority of the available data is for fish fillet and not whole fish which may underestimate PFOS concentrations in whole fish that may be consumed, and subsequently the assessment of ecological risks.


Section 6. Conclusions 6.1 General On the basis of additional data collected to March 2018, enRiskS has undertaken a human health and ecological risk assessment (HHERA) Addendum in relation to the presence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) located at, and in the vicinity of, HMAS Albatross (0026), Nowra, NSW (the “base”).

In Investigations conducted by Aurecon have detected concentrations of some PFAS compounds in environmental at, and downgradient of, the base. In November 2017, enRiskS prepared a HHERA for the base and surrounding area which is outlined in the following report:




For the off-base area, the HHERA identified that risks associated with the consumption of fish caught from the Shoalhaven River were low and acceptable (based on the limited data collected within the geographic boundaries of the sampling). However, it was identified that there was the potential for elevated exposures from fish intakes from Currambene Creek. The collection of additional data was recommended to better inform the risk assessment. It was also identified that there was the potential for adverse effects to the environment of the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek following bioaccumulation and intakes by higher order consumers.

Additional data has now been collected by Aurecon (2018) and this HHERA Addendum provides a further evaluation of the specific human health and ecological risk issues outlined above. It is acknowledged that there are known to be other sources of PFAS to the environment downgradient of the base, especially in relation to the Shoalhaven River. The known sources include sewage treatment plant outfalls, industrial activities and rural fire brigade sites.

6.2 Summary of Findings Table 6.1 provides an overview of the ways in which the assessed receptors (including members of the community and the terrestrial and aquatic environments) may be exposed to PFAS, derived from the HMAS Albatross Base and the conclusions relevant to these areas.


Table 6.1: Conclusions of HHERA Addendum

How the community may be exposed?

Potential risks to health or the environment

Area where potential risk issues identified

Human health – Off-base Recreational exposures, Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek Direct contact with PFAS in sediments

Low and acceptable. NA

Recreational use of surface water Low and acceptable NA Consumption of fish caught from local waterways

The available data indicates the potential for elevated exposures from fish and crustacean intakes.


Residential exposures Use of surface water for stock watering and irrigation

Low and acceptable. Shoalhaven River* and Currambene Creek*

Environment – On-base Terrestrial Environment of the Lowland Rainforest Direct toxicity No risk issues identified NA Bioaccumulation and effects on higher order consumers

The available data indicates the potential for elevated exposures to any resident populations of small insectivorous mammals within two areas of the Lowland Rainforest.

Yerriyong Gully, Northern End (HA89 to HA91) and Currambene Creek (HA86 to HA88)

Environment – Off-base Aquatic Environment of the Shoalhaven River* and Currambene Creek* Direct toxicity The available data does not suggest

the potential for significant effects due to direct toxicity.

NA

Bioaccumulation and higher order consumers

The potential for adverse effects to the environment cannot be excluded.


* The Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek areas referenced in this table is limited to the waterways where sampling was undertaken, and the extent of sampling within these waterways.

1 Introduction

1.1 Background A Detailed Site Investigation (DSI) and Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessment (HHERA) of per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) at HMAS Albatross completed on behalf of the Department of Defence (Defence) in 2017. Based on the findings of the HHERA, additional biota sampling and risk assessment is required downstream on the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek. Additional soil sampling onsite, within the Lowland Rainforest areas, is also required.

This report presents the methodologies and findings of the HHERA Addendum field investigations. Through implementation of the Sampling and Analysis Quality Plan (SAQP), this investigation aims to provide a reliable data set to further assess potential risks to human health and ecological receptors on-base and off-base associated with PFAS which has originated from HMAS Albatross.

1.2 Objectives The objectives of the HHERA Addendum field investigation are to:

Undertake additional sampling and analysis to allow a quantitative evaluation of the potential risks to human health within the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek due to PFAS presence arising from the use and storage of AFFF at HMAS Albatross

Undertake additional sampling and analysis to allow a qualitative evaluation of the potential risks to terrestrial and aquatic (freshwater and marine if applicable) ecological receptors within Lowland Rainforest areas on base and within the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek due to PFAS presence arising from the use and storage of AFFF at HMAS Albatross.

1.3 Scope of works The field investigation was conducted to meet the requirements of the HHERA Addendum SAQP. The scope of works of the investigation subject to this report are summarised in Table 1.1.

1.5 Data quality objectives and indicators

1.5.1 Data quality objectives Data quality objectives (DQOs) are qualitative and quantitative statements derived from the outputs of the first six steps of the seven steps DQO process that:

Clarify the study objective Define the most appropriate type of data to collect Determine the most appropriate conditions from which to collect data Specify tolerable limits on decision errors which will be used as the basis for establishing the quantity and

quality of data needed to support the decision

This SAQP addresses the seventh step of the DQO process, which requires an SAQP to be developed to generate data to meet the DQOs.

The DQOs for this investigation have been prepared in line with the DQO process outlined in US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) (2006), NEPM 2013 (Schedule B2) and the Guidelines for the NSW Site Auditor Scheme (DEC 2006), and are presented in the seven-step DQO approach presented in Table 1.2.

Table 1.2 Data quality objectives

Process Response

Step 1: State the Problem

Following completion of the HHERA, recommendations were made to undertake additional biota sampling to allow for further assess human health and ecological risk to be undertaken downstream of existing sampling locations, as well as soil sampling in the Lowland Rainforest areas on base to assess bioaccumulation risks. Biota sampling along the Shoalhaven River (upstream and downstream of Calymea Creek) and further downstream along Currambene Creek, as well as soil sampling in the Lowland Rainforest areas is required to assess human health and ecological risks.


Process Response

Step 2: Identify the Decision

The principle objectives of the HHERA Addendum are to: Assess the nature and extent of PFAS in biota further downstream on the Shoalhaven

River and Currambene Creek in accordance with the relevant standards and guidelines (refer Section 1.4)

Assess the nature and extent of PFAS in soil in the Lowland Rainforest areas on base. Assess the adequacy and completeness of all information gathered Provide sufficient input to allow regulatory bodies to make informed decisions on

suitable management measures for the protection of human health and the environment, including: − Identification of suitability for consumption of biota in the surrounding area − Identification of the potential for bioaccumulation in the surrounding area

Step 3: Identify the Inputs to the Decision

Objectives and scope of works of this investigation Site history and previous investigations, including the DSI and HHERA CSM, including potential sources, pathways and receptors Potential contaminants of concern (PFAS) Field methods, such as sampling, sample storage and preservation, laboratory

methods, quality control (QC) and quality assurance (QA) Media to be sampled (biota including fish and crustacea, surface water, sediment and

soil samples) and location of samples Adopted assessment criteria for surface water and soil Where possible, biota samples will be collected at the change of tide, as a greater

number of biota are likely to be present during this time. To ensure consistency, surface water samples will also be collected during this period.

Field data (including water quality parameters and visual/olfactory observations) and laboratory analysis

Step 4: Define the Boundaries of the Study

The field investigation comprised sampling locations within HMAS Albatross and off site to provide additional information and allow assessment of the nature and extent of PFAS in biota in the surrounding waterways and in soil from the Lowland Rainforest areas on base, in accordance with the relevant standards and guidelines. Biota sampling will include fish/crustacea and water and sediment samples at locations described in Section 2.2. Soil sampling will also be undertaken from the four areas of Lowland Rainforest areas on the base. The sampling unit for soil and sediment will be an assessed, collected and logged soil sample in a HDPE jar. The sampling unit for surface water will be an assessed, collected and field screened water sample in a HDPE bottle. The sampling unit for biota will be an assessed, collected and identified sample collected from each sampling location and will comprise, where practicable, four composite samples each comprised of five individuals (or fillets depending on the fish size) from each species. Species targeted are provided in Section 2.2.1. All sampling containers/bags will be laboratory supplied.

Step 5: Develop a Decision Rule

The field investigation will be designed to collect data on PFAS concentrations in biota to assess the nature and extent of PFAS compounds in biota in the surrounding area, further downstream of previous sampling locations, as well as allowing the undertaking of further risk assessment based on the biota PFAS data. Assessment of PFAS presence and potential risks to human health and ecology receptors will be undertaken as per the Methodology for HHERA: HMAS Albatross (EnRiskS 2016) The HHERA Addendum will: Undertake a quantitative evaluation of the potential risks to human health associated

with potential direct contact exposures with PFAS from edible produce (including fish products) in the off base area, in the context of the existing land uses. This includes public users of off base waterways downstream of the base

To undertake a qualitative evaluation of the potential risks to terrestrial and aquatic (freshwater) ecological receptors in the on and off base areas

To undertake a qualitative evaluation of the potential risks to terrestrial, freshwater and (if applicable) marine ecological receptors in the off base area

The HHERA Addendum will be undertaken in general accordance with the relevant guidelines (refer Section 1.4).


Process Response

Step 6: Specify Tolerable Limits on Decision Errors

Acceptance limits on field and laboratory data collected for this investigation will be in accordance with NEPM 2013 and the Western Australia Department of Environment Regulation 2017 Interim Guideline on the Assessment and Management of Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS). The acceptable limits on decision errors to be applied in the investigation and the manner of addressing possible decision errors have been developed based on the data quality indicators (DQIs) of precision, accuracy, representativeness, comparability and completeness, and are presented in Section 1.5.2. The potential for significant decision errors will be minimised by completing a robust QA/QC program and by completing an investigation that has an appropriate sampling and analytical density for the purposes of the investigation. Completeness of data collected will be determined by a combination of factors, including: The target amount of four composite samples, consisting of five individuals for each

species to be caught (as per Section 2.2.1), as allowed by up to two weeks of fishing across the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek

Species likely to be caught (based on commercial fisher local knowledge and information provided by NSW Department of Primary Industries (DPI)), and those species able to be caught over the duration of the investigation. Species able to be caught over the duration of the investigation will be representative of those species likely to be caught by commercial and recreational fishers in the same period.

Step 7: Optimise the Design for Obtaining Data

The sampling strategy and SAQP have been developed in accordance with relevant guidelines specified in Section 1.4 through targeted sampling of potential source-pathway-receptors. Samples are to be analysed by a National Association of Testing Authorities (NATA) accredited laboratory within approved sample holding times. The recommended holding time for PFAS is 14 days.

1.5.2 Data quality indicators The DQIs for the assessment are presented in Table 1.3.

1.6 Statement of limitations Aurecon performed the services in a manner consistent with the normal level of care and expertise exercised by members of the environmental profession. No warranties express or implied, are made. It should be noted that some information provided in this report is reliant on information provided by third parties such as Department of Defence and various State and Commonwealth government departments. Aurecon takes no responsibility for the quality/accuracy of information provided by third parties.

The outcome of this report is limited to information supplied for the activities associated with the scope of works only. It is intended that this assessment provides a description of the identified PFAS sources, pathways and receptors and recommendations on how to address and manage any issues at the location in question.

Soil and rock formations are often variable, resulting in heterogeneous distribution of PFAS across a site. PFAS concentrations may be estimated at chosen sample locations, however, conditions between sample sites can only be inferred on a basis of geological and hydrological conditions and the nature and the extent of the PFAS. Boundaries between zones of variable PFAS concentrations are often indistinct, and therefore interpretation is based on available information and the application of professional judgement. Aurecon uses best judgement acquired from working on similar sites and makes recommendations based solely on the results obtained.


We note that this report has been prepared for the use of Defence only and is based on information provided by Defence. Aurecon takes no responsibility and disclaims all liability whatsoever for any loss or damage that Defence may suffer as a result of using or relying on any such information or recommendations contained in this report, except to the extent Aurecon expressly indicates in this report that it has verified the information to its satisfaction. This report does not provide a complete assessment of the environmental status of the site, and it is limited to the scope defined herein. Should further information become available regarding the conditions at the site, including previously unknown likely sources of PFAS, migration pathways or receptors, Aurecon reserves the right to review the report in the context of the additional information.

2 Site identification and sampling locations

2.1 Site background

2.1.1 Lowland Rainforest SKM (2006) identified areas of Lowland Rainforest, an endangered ecological community under the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 (NSW). The key characteristics of the ecological community include (DoEE 2018):

Distribution within the South Eastern Queensland bioregions and the NSW North Coast and Sydney bioregions

Soils derived from basalt or alluvium

Altitude of less than 300 m above sea level

Areas of high annual rainfall (>1,300 mm)

More than 2 km inland from the coast

Structure of the ecological community is typically a tall (20 to 30 m) closed forest, often with multiple canopy layers

Patches of the ecological community typically have high species richness

It should be noted that the Lowland Rainforest at HMAS Albatross has yet to be formally listed as an endangered ecological community.


General Surface runoff from the northern and western portions of the site drain northwest to an unnamed tributary of Calymea Creek, named Braidwood Road drain for the purposes of this investigation. Calymea Creek also receives water from further south within Colymea State Conservation Area and Colymea State Forest. Cabbage Tree Creek and Flat Rock Creek flow from the north of the site through Triplarina Nature Reserve and Mundamia and West Nowra. Close to the site, these creeks are ephemeral in nature, however further from the site, the creeks become perennial, particularly as they join with other tributaries and are potentially recharged by the groundwater.

Shoalhaven River originates south of Braidwood and flows for 300 km in a north-easterly direction. The River flows through Nowra and receives water from base, through Calymea Creek, Cabbage Tree Creek and Flat Rock Creek. Primary industries in the Shoalhaven River include commercial fishing, oyster growing and vegetable farming. There is also a tourism industry with activities including recreational fishing, surfing and boating.

Fishing practices The Shoalhaven River supports a large population of commercial fishers that produce seafood for domestic and export markets (50/50 split). The main species targeted within the Shoalhaven River include (SOURCE):

School prawn

Luderick

Sea mullet

Silver biddy

Yellowfin bream


Dusky flathead

Sand whiting

Mud crab

Blue swimmer crab

Approximately 100 to 200 tonnes of seafood are caught annually in the Shoalhaven River.

A survey of recreational fishing in Shoalhaven River was completed in 2011 and noted that there were very few fishers observed upstream of the Nowra Bridge, although noted that more fishers might be expected in the cooler months of the year, when bass and estuary perch are targeted in this region (Miles and West 2011). Dusky flathead, Yellowfin/Black bream and Luderick were caught and kept in the largest numbers (Miles and West 2011). It was estimated that recreational anglers spent approximately 212,500 hours fishing in the Shoalhaven River and was split evening between local and visiting fishers. During the surveyed year, between 52,000 and 68,000 fish were captured and kept and a further 195,000 to 240,000 fish were captured and released (Miles and West 2011).


General Currambene Creek is a primary migration pathway for PFAS from HMAS Albatross, including its two major tributaries, Yerriyong Gully and Parma Creek. The upper reaches of Currambene Creek (and Yerriyong Gully) are typically prone to high velocity flushes of water during rainfall events and low flows or limited connectivity throughout the remainder of the year (SKM 2009). As such, the upper reaches of both creeks provided minimal habitat for fish (SKM 2009). Further away from HMAS Albatross, Currambene Creek and Yerriyong Gully become perennial in nature as water from the wider catchment is captured and the creeks are potentially recharged by the groundwater.

The majority of upper Currambene Creek (east of Princes Highway) is a Sanctuary Zone with no fishing permitted. However, the lower reaches of Currambene Creek have the potential to be used for recreational boating, swimming and fishing.

Currambene Creek flows into Jervis Bay at Huskisson, which is a Marine Park managed by the NSW DPI. The marine area at Huskisson is used for activities, including fishing, boating, scuba diving, snorkelling and some commercial fishing (NSW Marine Parks Authority 2011).

Fishing practices Commercial fishing in Currambene Creek, a Habitat Protection Zone, is minimal to non-existent, although recreational fishing is known to occur in Currambene Creek. Recreational fishing in upper Currambene Creek, above the Sanctuary Zone, likely targets Australian Bass (largely catch and release) and is known for yabbying. Recreational fishing in lower Currambene Creek, in the Habitat Protection Zone, targets Yellowfin Bream, Dusky Flathead, Luderick, crabs and garfish.

In Jervis Bay, outside the Marine Park Sanctuary Zones, both commercial and recreational fishing occurs. Recreational fishing in Jervis Bay is estimated to catch approximately 21 tonnes per year, targeting Blue and Slimy Mackerel (as bait fish and for human consumption), Dusky Flathead, Sand Whiting, Sand Flathead, Squid, as well as rock lobster, Yellowfin Bream, Snapper, Yellowtail Kingfish and Eastern Australian Salmon.

Species targeted for commercial fishing in Jervis Bay include Sand Whiting, Yellowtail Scad, Striped Grunter, Yellowfin Bream, Common Silver biddy, Tailor, Longfin Pike, Blue Mackerel, Southern Calamari, Gummy Shark, Snapper, Silver Trevally, Blue Weed-Whiting, Tarwhine, Sole, Australian Salmon, Australian Sardine, Onespot Puller, Mulloway, Sea Mullet, Luderick, Eastern Sea Garfish, Eastern School Whiting, Sweep, Sandy Sprat (Whitebait). Commercial catch within the Jervis Bay estuary is estimated at 260 kg per year and the commercial catch from ocean hauling, including Jervis Bay, varies from several hundred to over 25,000 kg.


2.2 Sampling locations

2.2.1 Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek Six locations were selected as sampling locations (three on the Shoalhaven River and three on Currambene Creek), focusing on areas where the general public have access to Shoalhaven River and are likely to undertake recreational fishing, as well as providing a spread of sample locations to provide representative data along the waterways. Locations selected are presented in Figure 2.1 and include:

Shoalhaven River:

− Approximately 7 km upstream of Calymea Creek and Shoalhaven River confluence, closer to Burrier, but still in intertidal zone (SR-B1)

− Confluence of Calymea Creek and Shoalhaven River (SR-B2)

− Approximately 7 km downstream of confluence of Calymea Creek and Shoalhaven River, closer to Watersleigh (SR-B3)

Currambene Creek:

− Existing water/sediment location at WW04

− Approximately 5.7 km from the mouth of Currambene Creek (CC-B2)

− Approximately 2.2 km from the mouth of Currambene Creek, at the oxbow adjacent/south of Woollamia (CC-B3)

Species targeted in the Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek are presented in Table 2.1.

Waterway sampling (Shoalhaven River) 8 to 10 February 2018 Aurecon

3.2 Field data collection and sampling The sampling techniques implemented in accordance with the methodology in the Sampling and analysis quality plan (SAQP) for the Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessment (Aurecon 2017) and is summarised in Table 3.2.

Table 3.2 Sampling methodology

Activity Details

Safety Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS) and “Take 5” Risk Assessments were completed prior to commencement of site works.

Site inspection Proposed sample locations were inspected where accessible, and vetted for integrity to determine their suitability for sampling.

Waterway biota sampling (crustacea and fish)

Biota sampling included the collection of fish and crustacea at six locations. Samples were collected via the use of mesh nets and baited traps. Fish samples were gutted and filleted on site, with flesh samples sent to the laboratory to be analysed for PFAS compounds.

Surface water and sediment sampling

A surface water sample was taken from each of the waterway biota sampling locations and analysed for the full PFAS suite, in addition to heavy metals and general water quality parameters including nutrients, total organic carbon (TOC) pH, electrical conductivity (EC) and total suspended solids and total dissolved solids (TDS). Sediment samples were collected from accessible points as close to the proposed locations points as practicable. A fresh pair of disposable nitrile gloves were used for handling of each sample to minimise the opportunity for cross contamination. Samples were collected directly into laboratory supplied labelled sample bottles and stored in a chilled cooler prior to submission to the laboratory for testing under chain of custody documentation. The field parameter probes were decontaminated after each sample was collected.

Quality assurance and quality control

Work was conducted in accordance with industry-accepted standards and quality assured procedures. Quality control procedures are designed to increase sample data quality and help interpret discrepancies in results. Field quality control included rigorous sample collection, decontamination procedures (where appropriate), and sample documentation. As each sample was collected it was labelled with a unique sample identifier, the initials of the sampler, the date and the project number. Samples were placed immediately into cooler boxes for transport to the laboratory. Chain of Custody (COC) documentation was completed with data including sample identification, date sampled, matrix type, preservation method, analyses required and name of sampler. Quality control samples comprised of the collection of duplicate and triplicate samples. As per AS4482.1, duplicate (intra-laboratory duplicate) and triplicate (inter-laboratory duplicate) samples, equivalent to a minimum of 1:20 (5%) of the number of primary samples, and one per day of sampling, were collected and analysed for PFAS.


3.3 Permits to conduct works The sampling of fish (including crustacea) during the field works was conducted under the provisions of Aurecon’s NSW DPI permits:

Scientific Collection Permit (P14/0025-1.5)

Marine Parks Permit (JBMP 18001/020219-1.0)

3.4 Laboratory analysis All biota, soil, water and sediment samples were analysed for the full PFAS analytical suite provided by the laboratories.

Primary biota samples were analysed by Eurofins laboratories, who are accredited by the National Association of Testing Authorities Australia (NATA) for the PFAS analytes. Secondary samples were analysed by the National Measurements Institute (NMI), who are also NATA accredited.

Samples were placed in laboratory supplied containers, which were completely filled with sample. Sample containers included the following:

PFAS analysis: Specialised bottles, jars and bags were used for storing samples, which are free from Teflon and other PFAS precursors. Glass jars were not used as there is evidence to suggest some PFAS can adsorb to glass surfaces

Analysis of PFAS in biota samples was conducted by high performance liquid chromatography/triple quadrupolemass spectrometry (HPLC/MS/MS). Analysis of PFAS in aqueous samples was by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), in accordance with NATA.

3.5 Compliance with the SAQP Whilst every effort was made to implement the HHERA SAQP in its entirety, deviations from the SAQP were required. Such deviations included:

The sampling location in upper Currambene Creek (at Fall’s Creek) (CC-B1) was relatively dry during sampling with no surface water flow (refer Figure 4.1). Sampling effort was applied on 29 January, 1 February and 2 February 2018, although no biota was caught. In addition, no biota was observed at this sampling location. As such, it is unlikely that recreational fishers could catch biota from this location during this time.

Other upper Currambene Creek sampling locations (SW13 and SW14) were also very turbid during the time of sampling and assessed by Aurecon ecologists to be unsuitable for biota. Discussions with residents living along upper Currambene Creek suggested no fishing occurs as the creek is too shallow and intermittent.

The alternate location approximately 500 m downstream (CC-B1 alternate) was unable to be sampled, given it was situated within the Sanctuary Zone. As such, biota sampling was conducted at W04, just downstream of the Sanctuary Zone.

Despite sampling effort applied, not all targeted species could be caught in the quantity required in the SAQP. However, it is considered that a sufficient representation of species was caught to effectively conduct the risk assessment.

Figure 4.1 illustrates the rainfall at Nowra RAN Air Station AWS (#068072) and stream level at Currambene Creek (216004) during the sampling for the HHERA Addendum. It is noted that rainfall in the area occurred in early January, with the stream level of Currambene Creek rising to 0.19 m. However, very little rain occurred between 14 January and 20 February 2018, with the stream level of Currambene Creek steadily decreasing. Sampling for the HHERA Addendum occurred between 30 January and 10 February 2018.

6 Quality assurance and quality control

6.1 Introduction Quality assurance and control (QA/QC) procedures relevant to the this investigation were carried out in general accordance with the relevant NEPM (2013) Schedule B(2) Guideline on Data Collection, Sample Design and Reporting – Section 4 and Schedule B(3) Guideline on Laboratory Analysis of Potentially Contaminated Sites.

Full details of the QA/QC methodology are included in Appendix C.

6.2 Data validation summary In summary, data assessment examined laboratory results, chain of custody documentation, and field QA/QCs. The following comments can be viewed as an overall summary of the quality of the analytical component for this project:

Sample integrity and container requirements were documented as acceptable for all samples

The method blanks were documented as below the LOR for all analytes indicating that contamination was not added during the laboratory analysis

Matrix spike duplicate recovery % R values indicated that sample accuracy acceptable for all samples

Laboratory surrogate recovery % R values and laboratory control spike recovery % R values were considered acceptable indicating that laboratory accuracy was acceptable for all samples

Laboratory duplicate RPD (% RPD) results indicated that sample precision was acceptable for the majority of analytes

All laboratory QA/QC method blanks were reported to have analytical concentrations below the laboratory detection limits and thus found to be acceptable

Based on the RPDs and the QA/QC report, the analytical results are considered representative of the concentration of the parameters within the sample media. It is therefore considered that the QA procedures implemented were acceptable in minimising cross contamination during sampling and transportation to the analytical laboratory.

The quality of the analytical component for this Project is considered acceptable.


7 Conclusion The data collected during the HHERA Addendum field investigations is sufficient to allow a quantitative evaluation of the potential risks to be undertaken for human health and the environment within the Shoalhaven River, Currambene Creek and the on base areas of lowland rainforest, due to PFAS presence arising from the use and storage of AFFF at HMAS Albatross.

The HHERA field investigations provided for the collection of waterway biota surface water and sediment samples. The samples were subject to laboratory analysis for PFAS.

The laboratory analysis results for PFAS concentrations present in samples collected as part of the HHERA Addendum field investigations have been presented in this report. Biota containing elevated PFAS concentrations were detected from each sampling location on Shoalhaven River and Currambene Creek, with the highest concentration of PFAS recorded at site CC-B2 on Currambene Creek in the Black Sole (Brachirus nigra). Concentrations of PFAS were detected from each sampling location along Currambene Creek and the two sampling locations on the Shoalhaven River, downstream of the Calymea Creek confluence. In addition, PFAS was detected in two of the three sediment samples from Currambene Creek, although PFAS was not detected in sediment from Shoalhaven River.

The findings of the HHERA Addendum field investigations presented in this report and results of the laboratory analysis will be incorporated in the HHERA Addendum prepared by Environmental Risk Science Pty Ltd.

Sample HistoryWhere samples are submitted/analysed over several days, the last date of extraction and analysis is reported.A recent review of our LIMS has resulted in the correction or clarification of some method identifications. Due to this, some of the method reference information on reports has changed. However,no substantive change has been made to our laboratory methods, and as such there is no change in the validity of current or previous results (regarding both quality and NATA accreditation).

If the date and time of sampling are not provided, the Laboratory will not be responsible for compromised results should testing be performed outside the recommended holding time.

QC - Acceptance Criteria

QC Data General Comments

1. Laboratory QC results for Method Blanks, Duplicates, Matrix Spikes, and Laboratory Control Samples are included in this QC report where applicable. Additional QC data may be available on

request.

2. All soil results are reported on a dry basis, unless otherwise stated.

3. All biota/food results are reported on a wet weight basis on the edible portion, unless otherwise stated.

4. Actual LORs are matrix dependant. Quoted LORs may be raised where sample extracts are diluted due to interferences.

5. Results are uncorrected for matrix spikes or surrogate recoveries except for PFAS compounds.

6. SVOC analysis on waters are performed on homogenised, unfiltered samples, unless noted otherwise.

7. Samples were analysed on an 'as received' basis.

8. This report replaces any interim results previously issued.

Please refer to 'Sample Preservation and Container Guide' for holding times (QS3001).

For samples received on the last day of holding time, notification of testing requirements should have been received at least 6 hours prior to sample receipt deadlines as stated on the SRA.

If the Laboratory did not receive the information in the required timeframe, and regardless of any other integrity issues, suitably qualified results may still be reported.

Holding times apply from the date of sampling, therefore compliance to these may be outside the laboratory's control.

For VOCs containing vinyl chloride, styrene and 2-chloroethyl vinyl ether the holding time is 7 days however for all other VOCs such as BTEX or C6-10 TRH then the holding time is 14 days.

**NOTE: pH duplicates are reported as a range NOT as RPD

mg/kg: milligrams per kilogram mg/L: milligrams per litre ug/L: micrograms per litre

ppm: Parts per million ppb: Parts per billion %: Percentage

org/100mL: Organisms per 100 millilitres NTU: Nephelometric Turbidity Units MPN/100mL: Most Probable Number of organisms per 100 millilitres

Dry Where a moisture has been determined on a solid sample the result is expressed on a dry basis.

LOR Limit of Reporting.

SPIKE Addition of the analyte to the sample and reported as percentage recovery.

RPD Relative Percent Difference between two Duplicate pieces of analysis.

LCS Laboratory Control Sample - reported as percent recovery.

CRM Certified Reference Material - reported as percent recovery.

Method Blank In the case of solid samples these are performed on laboratory certified clean sands and in the case of water samples these are performed on de-ionised water.

Surr - Surrogate The addition of a like compound to the analyte target and reported as percentage recovery.

Duplicate A second piece of analysis from the same sample and reported in the same units as the result to show comparison.

CP Client Parent - QC was performed on samples pertaining to this report

NCP Non-Client Parent - QC performed on samples not pertaining to this report, QC is representative of the sequence or batch that client samples were analysed within.

TEQ Toxic Equivalency Quotient

RPD Duplicates: Global RPD Duplicates Acceptance Criteria is 30% however the following acceptance guidelines are equally applicable:

Results <10 times the LOR : No Limit

Results between 10-20 times the LOR : RPD must lie between 0-50%

Results >20 times the LOR : RPD must lie between 0-30%

Surrogate Recoveries: Recoveries must lie between 50-150%-Phenols & PFASs

PFAS field samples that contain surrogate recoveries in excess of the QC limit designated in QSM 5.1 where no positive PFAS results have been reported have been reviewed and no data was

affected.

1. Where a result is reported as a less than (<), higher than the nominated LOR, this is due to either matrix interference, extract dilution required due to interferences or contaminant levels within

the sample, high moisture content or insufficient sample provided.

2. Duplicate data shown within this report that states the word "BATCH" is a Batch Duplicate from outside of your sample batch, but within the laboratory sample batch at a 1:10 ratio. The Parent

and Duplicate data shown is not data from your samples.

3. Organochlorine Pesticide analysis - where reporting LCS data, Toxaphene & Chlordane are not added to the LCS.

4. Organochlorine Pesticide analysis - where reporting Spike data, Toxaphene is not added to the Spike.

5. Total Recoverable Hydrocarbons - where reporting Spike & LCS data, a single spike of commercial Hydrocarbon products in the range of C12-C30 is added and it's Total Recovery is reported

in the C10-C14 cell of the Report.

6. pH and Free Chlorine analysed in the laboratory - Analysis on this test must begin within 30 minutes of sampling.Therefore laboratory analysis is unlikely to be completed within holding time.

Analysis will begin as soon as possible after sample receipt.

7. Recovery Data (Spikes & Surrogates) - where chromatographic interference does not allow the determination of Recovery the term "INT" appears against that analyte.

8. Polychlorinated Biphenyls are spiked only using Aroclor 1260 in Matrix Spikes and LCS.

9. For Matrix Spikes and LCS results a dash " -" in the report means that the specific analyte was not added to the QC sample.

10. Duplicate RPDs are calculated from raw analytical data thus it is possible to have two sets of data.

Qualifier Codes/Comments

Code DescriptionN09 Quantification of linear and branched isomers has been conducted as a single total response using the relative response factor for the corresponding linear/branched standard.

N11Isotope dilution is used for calibration of each native compound for which an exact labelled analogue is available (Isotope Dilution Quantitation). The isotopically labelledanalogues allow identification and recovery correction of the concentration of the associated native PFAS compounds.

N15Where the native PFAS compound does not have labelled analogue then the quantification is made using the Extracted Internal Standard Analyte with the closest retention timeto the analyte and no recovery correction has been made (Internal Standard Quantitation).

General Comments

The analytical procedures used by the Environmental Division have been developed from established internationally recognized procedures such as those published by the USEPA, APHA, AS and NEPM. In house

developed procedures are employed in the absence of documented standards or by client request.

Where moisture determination has been performed, results are reported on a dry weight basis.

Where a reported less than (<) result is higher than the LOR, this may be due to primary sample extract/digestate dilution and/or insufficient sample for analysis.

Where the LOR of a reported result differs from standard LOR, this may be due to high moisture content, insufficient sample (reduced weight employed) or matrix interference.

When sampling time information is not provided by the client, sampling dates are shown without a time component. In these instances, the time component has been assumed by the laboratory for processing

purposes.

Where a result is required to meet compliance limits the associated uncertainty must be considered. Refer to the ALS Contact for details.

CAS Number = CAS registry number from database maintained by Chemical Abstracts Services. The Chemical Abstracts Service is a division of the American Chemical Society.

LOR = Limit of reporting

^ = This result is computed from individual analyte detections at or above the level of reporting

ø = ALS is not NATA accredited for these tests.

~ = Indicates an estimated value.

Key :

Analysis will be conducted by ALS Environmental, Sydney, NATA accreditation no. 825, Site No. 10911 (Micro site no. 14913).l

Analysis Holding Time Compliance

Holding times for VOC in soils vary according to analytes of interest. Vinyl Chloride and Styrene holding time is 7 days; others 14 days. A recorded breach does not guarantee a breach for all VOC analytes and

should be verified in case the reported breach is a false positive or Vinyl Chloride and Styrene are not key analytes of interest/concern.

Holding time for leachate methods (e.g. TCLP) vary according to the analytes reported. Assessment compares the leach date with the shortest analyte holding time for the equivalent soil method. These are: organics

14 days, mercury 28 days & other metals 180 days. A recorded breach does not guarantee a breach for all non-volatile parameters.

If samples are identified below as having been analysed or extracted outside of recommended holding times, this should be taken into consideration when interpreting results.

This report summarizes extraction / preparation and analysis times and compares each with ALS recommended holding times (referencing USEPA SW 846, APHA, AS and NEPM) based on the sample container

provided. Dates reported represent first date of extraction or analysis and preclude subsequent dilutions and reruns. A listing of breaches (if any) is provided herein.

Brief Method SummariesThe analytical procedures used by the Environmental Division have been developed from established internationally recognized procedures such as those published by the US EPA, APHA, AS and NEPM. In house

developed procedures are employed in the absence of documented standards or by client request. The following report provides brief descriptions of the analytical procedures employed for results reported in the

Certificate of Analysis. Sources from which ALS methods have been developed are provided within the Method Descriptions.

Analytical Methods Method DescriptionsMatrixMethod

In house: A gravimetric procedure based on weight loss over a 12 hour drying period at 105-110 degrees C.

This method is compliant with NEPM (2013) Schedule B(3) Section 7.1 and Table 1 (14 day holding time).

Moisture Content EA055 SOIL

In-House. A portion of soil is extracted with MTBE. The extract is taken to dryness, made up in mobile phase.

Analysis is by LC/MSMS, ESI Negative Mode using MRM. Where commercially available, isotopically labelled

analogues of the target analytes are used as internal standards for quantification. Where a labelled analogue is

not commercially available, the internal standard with similar chemistry and the closest retention time to the

target is used for quantification. PFOS is quantified using a certified, traceable standard consisting of linear and

branched PFOS isomers.

General Comments

The analytical procedures used by the Environmental Division have been developed from established internationally recognized procedures such as those published by the USEPA, APHA, AS and NEPM. In house

developed procedures are employed in the absence of documented standards or by client request.

Where moisture determination has been performed, results are reported on a dry weight basis.

Where a reported less than (<) result is higher than the LOR, this may be due to primary sample extract/digestate dilution and/or insufficient sample for analysis. Where the LOR of a reported result differs from standard LOR, this may be due to high moisture content, insufficient sample (reduced weight employed) or matrix interference.

Anonymous = Refers to samples which are not specifically part of this work order but formed part of the QC process lot

CAS Number = CAS registry number from database maintained by Chemical Abstracts Services. The Chemical Abstracts Service is a division of the American Chemical Society.

LOR = Limit of reporting

RPD = Relative Percentage Difference

# = Indicates failed QC

Key :

Laboratory Duplicate (DUP) Report

The quality control term Laboratory Duplicate refers to a randomly selected intralaboratory split. Laboratory duplicates provide information regarding method precision and sample heterogeneity. The permitted ranges

for the Relative Percent Deviation (RPD) of Laboratory Duplicates are specified in ALS Method QWI -EN/38 and are dependent on the magnitude of results in comparison to the level of reporting: Result < 10 times LOR:

No Limit; Result between 10 and 20 times LOR: 0% - 50%; Result > 20 times LOR: 0% - 20%.

Method Blank (MB) and Laboratory Control Spike (LCS) Report

The quality control term Method / Laboratory Blank refers to an analyte free matrix to which all reagents are added in the same volumes or proportions as used in standard sample preparation. The purpose of this QC

parameter is to monitor potential laboratory contamination. The quality control term Laboratory Control Spike (LCS) refers to a certified reference material, or a known interference free matrix spiked with target

analytes. The purpose of this QC parameter is to monitor method precision and accuracy independent of sample matrix. Dynamic Recovery Limits are based on statistical evaluation of processed LCS.

QA/QC results


Appendix C QA/QC results

Sampling and laboratory QA/QC QA/QC procedures relevant to the this investigation were carried out in general accordance with the relevant NEPM (2013) Schedule B(2) Guideline on Data Collection, Sample Design and Reporting – Section 4 and Schedule B(3) Guideline on Laboratory Analysis of Potentially Contaminated Sites.

Aurecon considers that adequate QA has been achieved by meeting the following DQOs:

Maintenance of sample integrity (sampling and analytical equipment decontamination, minimisation of cross contamination of samples, cross checking of sample identities, duplicate sampling and analytical data evaluation)

Method accuracy (field and laboratory procedures)

Data precision (laboratory instrumentation checks and record review, laboratory quality control analysis

To ensure that the results of the investigation were valid and defensible, work was carried out according to industry-accepted standards by experienced environmental scientists and in accordance with the requirements of NEPM 2013.

Field QC procedures for the investigation included:

Rigorous sample collection

Collection of intra-laboratory duplicate samples

− One soil sample

Collection of inter-laboratory duplicate samples

− Two biota samples

− One soil sample

Handling and transfer protocols

The laboratories selected for carrying out the laboratory analysis, Eurofins (primary and intra-laboratory duplicate sample analysis), NMI (biota inter-laboratory duplicate sample analysis) and ALS (soil inter-laboratory duplicate sample analysis) are accredited and certified by NATA to carry out each analysis. Internal laboratory QC procedures include duplicate sample analysis and an assessment of laboratory holding times.

Laboratory results of QA/QC testing show that the laboratory data is representative of conditions at sample locations, and therefore can be relied upon for the purpose of this investigation.

Laboratory QA/QC

Sample conditions The majority of samples were received by the laboratories in appropriate sample containers that were pre-treated and preserved.

Samples were stored in a chilled esky with ice bricks whilst in the field and were frozen upon receipt by the laboratory. All samples were delivered to the laboratories within the recommended holding times.


Laboratory blanks The assessment of the laboratory blank samples by Eurofins and ALS reported concentrations of all parameters below the LOR, indicating that the samples were not contaminated during laboratory analysis.

Laboratory duplicates The assessment of laboratory duplicates were generally within the recommended RPD, although there were two instances where the duplicates had an RPD above 30%. This occurred in work order 583547 from chromium and in work order 584697 for total kjeldahl nitrogen. However, Eurofins noted that in both instances, the RPDs passed Eurofins internal criteria, given the low concentrations near and below detection.

As such, it is considered that the level of precision is acceptable.

Laboratory and matrix spikes The laboratory control spikes were within the recovery limits for all analytes. The matrix spikes reported by all laboratories were within the recommended recovery limits for all samples.

Field QA/QC

Sample collection The SAQP contained instructions for hand augering, sediment sampling, surface water monitoring and biota sampling, whilst ensuring cross-contamination is avoided.

Field equipment used during the investigated was free from material containing Teflon® (eg Teflon® tubing, containers, tape etc) as Teflon® is known to contain fluorinated compounds. Waterproof field books and clipboards were not used to avoid plastic coating and glue materials. Markers and Post-It Notes were also avoided.

Field clothing used during the investigation were made of synthetic and natural fibres were used and well laundered, avoiding fabric softener. Water resistant, waterproof or stain-treated clothing were avoided as was Tyvek® clothing.

Disposable nitrile gloves were worn at all times with a new pair of nitrile gloves worn before commencing the following activities at each new sampling location:

Decontamination of re-usable sampling equipment

Prior to contact with sample bottles or water containers

Handling of any QA/QC samples including field blanks and equipment blanks

After the handling of any non-dedicated sampling equipment, contact with non-decontaminated surfaces, or when judged necessary by field personnel

Soil, sediment and water samples were collected in polypropylene or HDPE bottles fitted with unlined polypropylene HDPE screw caps (not Teflon® lined). Glass containers were avoided due to potential loss of analyte through adsorption. Samples were stored in a chilled portable fridge prior to submission to the laboratory for testing under appropriate chain of custody documentation.

During decontamination, Decon 90® was not used as it is known to contain fluorinated compounds. Instead, a water only decontamination procedure was used for all sampling equipment, as recommended by the Western Australia (2017) Interim Guideline on the Assessment and Management of Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS). The decontamination procedure implemented is as follows:

Scrub off excess dirt in first cleaning container

Rinse in tap water (three times)


Rinse with deionised/distilled water (twice)

Intra- and inter-laboratory duplicates

General Data validation of duplicate samples was undertaken by calculation of the RPD from the mean. RPDs for the samples are calculated using the formula:

𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅% =𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅 𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛. 1 − 𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅 𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛. 2

𝑚𝑚𝑅𝑅𝑚𝑚𝑛𝑛 𝑟𝑟𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅× 100

RPD data are used to determine the precision/reproducibility of results. The precision of laboratory analytical results is deemed to be suitable if RPD values fall within the recommended range of 30% RPD where one or both values were greater than 10 x LOR or 50% RPD where one or both values less than 10 x LOR.

Where both values fall below the LOR, the RPD is not calculated. However, if only one value is below the LOR, the LOR is used as that value in the above calculations.

Biota RPD analysis Table F.1 provides details of the two primary samples and the corresponding intra- and inter-laboratory duplicate biota samples collected during the investigation.

RPDs were calculated and reported within criteria with the exception of the following presented in Table F.2.

The RPDs did not exceed 30% for the selected analytes

PFOS 5.5 3.2 52.9

One RPD exceedance of the recommended target RPD percentage was identified, although it is noted that higher variations can also be expected for samples with low analyte concentrations. Based on this, Aurecon deems the exceedances in Table F.2 as acceptable.

Soil RPD analysis Table F.3 provides details of the one primary sample and the corresponding intra- and inter-laboratory duplicate soil samples collected during the investigation.

Table F.3 Field intra- and inter-laboratory duplicates

Primary sample Intra-laboratory duplicate Inter-laboratory duplicate

HA96_0.1_180131 QA101_180131 QA102_180131

RPDs were calculated and reported within criteria with the exception of the following presented in Table F.4.

PFHxS <0.01 µg/L 0.02 µg/L 66.6

Only a single inter-laboratory duplicate result exceeded the recommended target RPD, with the sample a soil leachate result from HA96. The high RPD is indicative of the low values that are near or below detection, which can exaggerate the RPD.

Based on this, Aurecon deems the exceedances in Table F.4 as acceptable.
