Use of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in consumer uses of TULAC

Supply of Use of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in consumer uses of Textiles, Upholstery, Leather Apparel and Carpets (TULAC) Following the publication of the UK REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and restriction of Chemicals) Regulatory Management Options Analysis (RMOA) for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) (HSE, 2023), we are considering whether to propose restrictions on the use of certain PFAS-containing products. To help guide this decision, it would be useful to have more knowledge about PFAS exposure specific to GB. Among the consumer product categories in GB, Textiles, Upholstery, Leather, Apparel, and Carpets (TULAC) has one of the highest estimated potential emissions as well as the possibility of direct human exposure. We are looking for a laboratory to analyse approximately 50 TULAC samples for PFAS concentrations using an appropriate method. Due to uncertainty over the range of PFAS that may be present, a total PFAS analysis such as the Total Oxidisable Precursor (TOP) assay or Total Hydrolysable Precursor (THP) assay should be used with characterisation of the extract. We will also consider alternative PFAS extraction / analysis methods that the laboratory considers suitable or beneficial for the matrices being tested. We anticipate that TULAC samples would be sent to the laboratory in December 2024, with analysis to be complete by the end of February 2025. The objective is to generate information on PFAS concentrations in a variety of pertinent product categories available on the GB market, particularly those that haven't been thoroughly examined before.

ID 5623675 - DAERA - CAFRE - ESTABLISHMENT SOIL CARBON STOCKS BASELINE AT THE CAFRE FARMS

The CAFRE Soil Carbon Coring Project has been developed by technologists at CAFRE to obtain a field level baseline of soil carbon stocks, soil nutrient and carbon properties at the five CAFRE estate farms in Northern Ireland. The project will provide CAFRE with a dataset that can be used for the delivery of innovation projects and industry demonstration on the management of soil carbon stocks and soil sequestration rates across a wide array of soil types, land uses and management practices. The project objectives are to - provide a detailed accurate measurement, analysis and establishment of a dataset of soil carbon stocks on active agricultural soils and on non-active agricultural/farmland soils at an individual field and subsequent whole farm level at each CAFRE farm centres - sample, analyse and report on broad soil nutrient and carbon properties at 0 – 7.5 cm depth on grassland areas and 0 – 15 cm on arable areas at an individual field and subsequent whole farm level at each CAFRE farm centre.. CAFRE wishes to establish a contract for a Supplier to provide a stratification and sampling plan, in-field sampling, lab analysis and reporting of soil carbon stocks. In addition, the supplier will provide the provision of sampling for broad soil nutrient analysis, and soil carbon properties from across the CAFRE estate farms, which are to be analysed by NRM Cawood Laboratories.
