PFAS Blueprint PFAS planning document February 2021 Minnesota’s PFAS Blueprint A plan to protect our communities and our environment from per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances This document was written by a large number of staff and managers from the MPCA, MDH, DNR and MDA. The initial drafts of issue papers were written by PFAS Lateral Team subject experts. Primary coordination, compilation, and editing was done by Sophie Greene, MPCA’s PFAS coordinator. Drafts of issue papers were reviewed by the relevant program management, the entire Staff PFAS Lateral Team, and the entire Manager PFAS Lateral Team. Finally, the document was reviewed by commissioners of participating agencies.

  • Basic Chemistry
    CH 2- THE CHEMISTRY OF LIFE Atoms . The study of chemistry begins with the basic unit of matter, the atom. The Greek philosopher Democritus called the smallest fragment of matter the atom, from the Greek word atomos. Atoms (cont.) . Placed side by side, 100 million atoms would make a row only about 1 centimeter long. Atoms contain subatomic particles that are even smaller. Atoms (cont.) . What three subatomic particles make up atoms? Atoms (cont.) . The subatomic particles that make up atoms are . protons . neutrons . electrons Atoms (cont.) . Smallest property of an element that still has the properties of that element . “The building blocks of matter” . Atoms are made of smaller (subatomic) particles arranged in a particular way . p+ (proton) . n° (neutron) . e- (electron) Atoms (cont.) . Protons and neutrons have about the same mass. Protons are positively charged particles (+). Neutrons carry no charge (◦). Strong forces bind protons and neutrons together to form the nucleus, which is at the center of the atom. Atoms (cont.) . The electron is a negatively charged particle (−) with 1/1840 the mass of a proton. Electrons are in constant motion in the space surrounding the nucleus (e- cloud). Atoms (cont.) . The subatomic particles in a helium atom. Atoms (cont.) • Electrons are attracted to the positively charged nucleus but remain outside the nucleus because of the energy of their motion. • Because atoms have equal numbers of electrons and protons, and because these subatomic particles have equal but opposite charges, atoms are neutral. Atoms (cont.) . Atomic number- # of p+ AND electrons in an atom . Mass number- total # of p+ + n° in an atom .

  • All About the Chemical Bonds and Compounds
    All about the Chemical Bonds and Compounds Video Transcript Almost everything we see or touch in daily life – such as the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe, and so on – is the result of chemical bonding. In other words, the world around us is generally not composed of isolated atoms. Instead, atoms bond to one another to form molecules and hence chemical compounds, which make up the world around us. Chemical bonding is the physical process that causes atoms and molecules to be attracted to each other and held together in more stable chemical compounds. There are three primary types of chemical bonds and compounds: Ionic bonds, covalent bonds, and metallic bonds. With ionic bonds, electrons are exchanged or transferred between atoms. They exist in ionic compounds. Generally, they’re a metal and a nonmetal – sodium chloride, magnesium oxide, etc. With covalent bonds, electrons are shared among the atoms. They exist in covalent and molecular compounds. Generally, they are nonmetals – carbon dioxide, dihydrogen monoxide, etc. With metallic bonds, a pool of electrons roam freely across entire molecule. They exist in metallic compounds. Generally, they’re metals and alloys – copper, gold, etc. A chemical compound is a group of two or more different atoms that are attracted to each other. Compounds can be divided into ionic compounds, covalent compounds, and metallic compounds. This table lists some key properties of each. Be aware that it is the valence electrons (those in the outermost level) that are involved in bonding. Atoms try to fill their outer energy levels because it’s energetically favorable for atoms to be in that configuration and it makes them stable.

  • Chapter 10 – Chemical Reactions Notes
    Chapter 8 – Chemical Reactions Notes Chemical Reactions: Chemical reactions are processes in which the atoms of one or more substances are rearranged to form different chemical compounds. How to tell if a chemical reaction has occurred (recap): Temperature changes that can’t be accounted for. o Exothermic reactions give off energy (as in fire). o Endothermic reactions absorb energy (as in a cold pack). Spontaneous color change. o This happens when things rust, when they rot, and when they burn. Appearance of a solid when two liquids are mixed. o This solid is called a precipitate. Formation of a gas / bubbling, as when vinegar and baking soda are mixed. Overall, the most important thing to remember is that a chemical reaction produces a whole new chemical compound. Just changing the way that something looks (breaking, melting, dissolving, etc) isn’t enough to qualify something as a chemical reaction! Balancing Equations Notes: Things to keep in mind when looking at the recipes for chemical reactions: 1) The stuff before the arrow is referred to as the “reactants” or “reagents”, and the stuff after the arrow is called the “products.” 2) The number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the arrow. Even though there may be different numbers of molecules, the number of atoms of each element needs to remain the same to obey the law of conservation of mass. 3) The numbers in front of the formulas tell you how many molecules or moles of each chemical are involved in the reaction. 4) Equations are nothing more than chemical recipes.

    Lake Smetana Water Quality Study Use Attainability Analysis (Updated from 2003) Prepared for Nine Mile Creek Watershed District February 2020 4300 MarketPointe Drive, Suite 200 Minneapolis, MN 55435 952.832.2600 www.barr.com REPORT SUMMARY Lake Smetana Water Quality Study Use Attainability Analysis Update for Lake Smetana (2019) Prepared for Nine Mile Creek Watershed District February 2020 MANAGING LAKE SMETANA WATER QUALITY WORKING TO MEET DISTRICT GOALS Lake Smetana is a shallow, 56-acre lake within the “Golden Triangle” area of Eden Prairie, an industrial park surrounded by Interstate 494 and U.S. Highways 212 and 169. The lake is situated along the South Fork of Nine Mile Creek, approximately 1.3 stream miles downstream of Bryant Lake within the Nine Mile Creek watershed. With an average depth of 3 feet and maximum depth of 10 feet, the lake’s shallow nature and urbanized watershed pose water quality challenges. Although improved in recent years, water quality in Lake Smetana has historically been moderate to poor. The Nine Mile Creek Watershed District (NMCWD), a local unit of government that works to solve and prevent water-related problems, conducted a study of Lake Smetana in 2019 to evaluate current water quality and identify protection and improvement strategies. Additional information on the current lake conditions, water quality challenges, and recommended management strategies are summarized in this project overview. Protecting and enhancing the water quality of the lakes within the Nine Mile Creek watershed is one of the primary goals of the Nine Mile Creek Watershed District. The NMCWD’s lake management program includes data collection (monitoring), assessment (e.g., studies), and implementation of projects and programs to protect and improve water quality and aquatic habitat.
