Section No. 7.0 <br /> Revision No. 6 <br /> Date 611188 <br /> Page )4 <br /> r;.w <br /> 7.0 ANALYTICAL PROCEDURES <br /> Canonie's laboratory employs U.S. EPA-approved methods in the analysis of <br /> environmental samples, or, when required by particular agencies to which the <br /> client is responsible, approved methodologies published by the particular <br /> agency involved. Most of the procedures utilized by Canonie's laboratory are <br /> taken from the following publications: <br /> Test Methods for Evaluating Salid Waste - Physical/Chemical <br /> Methods, SW-846 (3rd Edition, 1486) <br /> Methods for Chemical Analysis of Water & Wastes, <br /> EPA-600/4-79-020 <br /> Standard Methods for the Examination of water and Wastewater, <br /> APHA-AWWA-WPCF (16th Edition, 1485) <br /> Additional procedures are received from the clients served by the laboratory <br /> or from state regulatory agencies. Table II list the more common methods <br /> utilized for analysis of soils and water. Also included with each table are <br /> holding times, and the method of analysis. Reporting limit-s can be found <br /> within each analytical method SOP. Regardless of the specific method <br /> detection limit, the actual detection limit will be sample matrix dependent. <br /> If the concentration of a particular sample constituent is so high that it <br /> requires dilution prior to analysis, the resulting reporting limit for that <br /> sample will be raised by the dilution factor. There may be a situation where <br /> prior approval was obtained to analyze the sample twice to obtain the <br /> specified detection limit, but should not be considered standard practice. <br /> Canca ieE7�,vi,-o ,mental <br />
