<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 />QA/QC
<br />Quality Assurance/Quality Control
<br />Notes: To avoid false positive
<br />detection of benzene, benzene -free solvents are to be used. Fused capillary columns are preferred to packed
<br />columns; a packed column may be used as a "first cut" with "dirty" samples or once the hydrocarbons have been characterized and proper
<br />QA/QC is followed.
<br />For drinking water sources,
<br />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.
<br />PHS-EHD recommends holding those samples until disposal is indicated.
