| Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are present in the environment, and are known to be toxic. The EPA has banned the production of such toxic compounds in 1970's, but PCBs in soil and water is continued to be a problem. Analysis of soil and water samples from various sites around Plymouth and Campton, NH provide fate and transport of PCBs in environment around rapidly developing areas in rural New Hampshire. The screen samples were tested at the Plymouth State University using GC-MS while the follow up samples analyzed using standard EPA method at the EPA laboratory. |
