ORGANIC GLOSSARY OF DATA QUALIFIERS AND ABBREN"IATIONS Oreanic Data Oualifiers A TIC is a suspected a1do1-condensation product B Compound was found in the associated blank and the sample C Pesticide identification was confirmed by GC/MS D Concentration values reported at a secondary dilution factor, or surrogate or matrix spike recoveries were not obtained because the extract was diluted for analysis E Concentration exceeds the instrument calibration range and was subsequently diluted I Appears on the "results spreadsheet" and "quant reports" to indicate an interference, or it appears on pesticide Form 8 to indicate an instrument blank without a surrogate J Result is an estimated value below the reporting limit, or a Tenatively Identified Compound (TIC) N Indicates presumptive evidence of a Tentatively Identified Compound (TIC) P The percent difference between the results from two GC columns is greater than 25%, and the lower of the two values is reported T Compound was found in the associated TCLP extraction blank and the sample U Compound was analyzed for but not detected at or above the reporting limit X Laboratory-defined qualifier description included in the narrative QC result was outside the laboratory control limits Abbreviations BS Blank Spike spike analysis was conducted on reagent grade water or a matrix free from the analyte(s) of interest BSD Blank Spike Duplicate BRL Below Reporting Limit CD Calculation Factor used by the Laboratory's Information Management System (LIMS) DF Dilution Factor DL Appears in the sample ID to indicate a secondary dilution LCS or (LC) denotes Laboratory Control Standard MB Method Blank or (PB) preparation blank MS Matrix Spike MSD Matrix Spike Duplicate NA Not Applicable NC Not Calculated NR Not Required NS Not Spiked RE Appears in the sample ID to indicate a Re-analysis 1 REP Replicate analysis REPREP Sample was reprepared and then reanalyzed RFW# Equivalent to the laboratory sample identification (LAB ID) 1 RPD Relative Percent Difference of duplicate analyses RRF Relative Response Factor ' RT Retention Time RTW Retention Time Window NO'T'ES • One or a combination of these data qualifiers and abbreviations may appear in the analytical report • Soil sediment and sludge results are reported on a dry weight basis except when analvzed for landfill disposal or incineration parameters All other results on a solid matrix are reported on an as received"basis unless noted dtfferendv • Repotting limits are adjusted for preparation sample size sample dilutions and sample moisture content if analvzed on a dr% weight basis ' R;:%iced (o O1 94
