The Director shall establish a performance standard for the detection of perfluorinated compounds. In developing the performance standard under subsection (a), the Director shall emphasize the ability to detect as many perfluorinated compounds present in the environment as possible using analytical methods that— achieve limits of quantitation (as defined in the document of the United States Geological Survey entitled Analytical Methods for Chemical Analysis of Geologic and Other Materials, U.S.
Geological Survey and dated 2002); and are as sensitive as is feasible and practicable. In developing the performance standard under subsection (a), the Director may— develop quality assurance and quality control measures to ensure accurate sampling and testing; develop a training program with respect to the appropriate method of sample collection and analysis of perfluorinated compounds; and coordinate with the Administrator, including, if appropriate, coordinating to develop media-specific, validated analytical methods to detect individual and different perfluorinated compounds simultaneously.
