Not detected at or above the reporting limit <br /> Relative Percent Difference (RPD) An indication of method precision based on duplicate analysis <br /> Reporting ] ,mit (RL) The lowest corcentratier rout ncl, dcterm-ned during laboratory operations Tne RL is <br /> generally 1 to 10 times the Method Detection Limit (MDL). Reporting limits are matrix, method, and analyte <br /> dependent and take into account any dilutions performed as part of the analysis <br /> surrogates Organic compounds which are similar to analytes of interest in chemical behavior, but are not found <br /> in environmental samples Surrogates are added to all blanks, calibration and check standards, samples, and <br /> spiked samples Surrogate recovery is monitored as an indication of acceptable sample preparation and <br /> instrumental performance <br /> D Surrogates diluted out <br /> # Indicates result outside of established laboratory QC limits <br />
