Data Qualifiers and Definitions <br /> Qualifiers <br /> A See Report Comments. <br /> B Analyte was present in an associated method blank. <br /> 1131 Analyte was present in a sample and associated method blank greater than MDL but less than RDL. <br /> BQ1 No valid test replicates.Sample Toxicity is possible. Best result was reported. <br /> BQ2 No valid test replicates. <br /> BQ3 No valid test replicates. Final DO is less than 1.0 mg/L. Result may be greater. <br /> BQ4 Minor Dissolved Oxygen loss was observed in the blank water check, however,the LCS was within criteria,validating the batch. <br /> BQ5 Minor Dissolved Oxygen loss was observed in the blank water check. <br /> C Possible laboratory contamination. <br /> D RPD was not within control limits.The sample data was reported without further clarification. <br /> D1 Lesser amount of sample was used due to insufficient amount of sample supplied. <br /> D2 Reporting limit is elevated due to sample matrix. Target analyte was not detected above the elevated reporting limit. <br /> D3 Insufficient sample was supplied for TCLP. Client was notified. TCLP was performed per the Client's instructions. <br /> DW Sample result is calculated on a dry weigh basis. <br /> E Concentration is estimated because it exceeds the quantification limits of the method. <br /> The sample was read outside of the method required incubation period. <br /> IR Inconclusive Result. Legionella is present, however,there is possible non-specific agglutination preventing specific identification. <br /> J Reported value is estimated <br /> L The laboratory control sample(LCS)or laboratory control sample duplicate(LCSD)was out of control limits. Associated sample <br /> data was reported with qualifier. <br /> L2 LCS did not meet recovery criteria, however,the MS and/or MSD met LCS recovery criteria,validating the batch. <br /> M The matrix spike(MS)or matrix spike duplicate(MSD)was not within control limits due to matrix interference.The associated <br /> LCS and/or LCSD was within control limits and the sample data was reported without further clarification. <br /> M1 The matrix spike(MS)or matrix spike duplicate(MSD)is not within control limits due to matrix interference. <br /> M2 The matrix spike(MS)or matrix spike duplicate(MSD)was not within control limits. The associated LCS and/or LCSD was not <br /> within control limits. Sample result is estimated. <br /> N1 Sample chromatography does not match the specified TPH standard pattern. <br /> NC The analyte concentration in the sample exceeded the spike level by a factor of four or greater,spike recovery and limits do not <br /> apply. <br /> P Sample was received without proper preservation according to EPA guidelines. <br /> P1 Temperature of sample storage refrigerator was out of acceptance limits. <br /> P2 The sample was preserved within 24 hours of collection in accordance with EPA 218.6. <br /> P3 Per Client request, sample was composited for volatile analysis. Sample compositing for volatile analysis is not recommended <br /> due to potential loss of target analytes. Results may be biased low. <br /> Q1 Analyte Calibration Verification exceeds criteria.The result is estimated. <br /> Q2 Analyte calibration was not verified and the result was estimated. <br /> Q3 Analyte initial calibration was not available or exceeds criteria.The result was estimated. <br /> S The surrogate recovery was out of control limits due to matrix interference.The associated method blank surrogate recovery <br /> was within control limits and the sample data was reported without further clarification. <br /> S1 The associated surrogate recovery was out of control limits; result is estimated. <br /> S2 The surrogate was diluted out due to the presence of high concentrations of target and/or non-target compounds.Surrogate <br /> recoveries in the associated batch QC met recovery criteria. <br /> S3 Internal Standard did not meet recovery limits.Analyte concentration is estimated. <br /> T Sample was extracted/analyzed past the holding time. <br /> T1 Reanalysis was reported past hold time due to failing replicates in the original analysis(BOD only). <br /> T2 Sample was analyzed ASAP but received and analyzed past the 15 minute holding time. <br /> T3 Sample received and analyzed out of hold time per client's request. <br /> T4 Sample was analyzed out of hold time per client's request. <br /> T5 Reanalysis was reported past hold time. The original analysis was within hold time,but not reportable. <br /> T6 Hold time is indeterminable due to unspecified sampling time. <br /> T7 Sample was analyzed past hold time due to insufficient time remaining at time of receipt. <br /> Definitions <br /> DF Dilution Factor <br /> MDL Method Detection Limit. Result is reported ND when it is less than or equal to MDL. <br /> ND Analyte was not detected or was less than the detection limit. <br /> NR Not Reported.
