MINIt%,,,,M VERIFICATION LABORATORY ANArCSIS
<br />analysts methods are the designated EPA methods described in EPA SW 846, Third Edition. Those methods not found in SW
<br />846 are specifically noted below. Refer to the "SWRCB LUFT Field Manual", Appendix D (B), Table 3-5 on page A20 for
<br />minimum detection limits for motor vehicle fuel (gasoline and diesel). Refer to "Tri -Regional Board Staff Recommendations for
<br />Initial Evaluation and Investigation of UST's" for the waste and motor oil minimum detection limits.
<br />Detection Limits that remain below the MCL, STLC or Allowable Limit of the contaminant in question will be accepted,
<br />however laboratory shall utilize the most conservative method.

<br />For drinking water sources, EPA recommends that the 500 series for volatile organic should be used in preference to the 600 series because the
<br />detection limits are lower and the QA/QC is better. Samples exhibiting any level of heavy metal contamination may require further analysis. EHD
<br />recommends holding those samples until diiposal is indicated.
