Unless otherwise indicated, volatiles by gas chromatography (GC) are reported from a single column Volatiles analyses by GC on low Level soils are conducted at room temperature TCLP extractions are performed at sample amounts, approved by the State of California FLAGS, FOOTNOTES, AND ABBREVIATIONS (as needed) NA = Not analyzed N.I = Not Ignitable N/A = Not applicable S I = Sustains Ignition ug/L = Micrograms per liter I(NS) = Ignites, but does not Sustain Ignition mg/L = Milligrams per liter RPD = Relative Percent Difference NO = Hot detected at a value greater than the reporting limit NC = Not calculable due to values lower than the detection limit (a) = Surrogate recoveries were outside acceptable ranges due to matrix effects (b) = Surrogate recoveries were not calculated due to dilution of the sample below the detectable range for the surrogate. (c) = Matrix spike recoveries were outside acceptable ranges due to matrix effects. (d) = Relative Percent Difference (RPD) for duplicate analysis outside acceptance Limits due to actual differences in the sample matrix (e) = The limit listed for flammability indicates the upper limit for the test. Samples are not tested at temperatures above 140 Fahrenheit since only samples which will sustain ignition at temperatures below 140 are considered flammable. (f) = Results for this hydrocarbon range did not match a typical hydrocarbon pattern. Results were quantified using a diesel standard, however, the hydrocarbon pattern did not match a diesel pattern (g) = Results for this hydrocarbon range did not match a typical hydrocarbon pattern. Results were quantified using a gasoline standard, however, the hydrocarbon pattern did not match a gasoline pattern.
