Symbol Definition A Value reported is the mean (average) of two or more determinations. This code is to be used if the results of two or more discrete and separate samples are averaged. These samples shall have been processed and analyzed independently (e.g. field duplicates, different dil...
Laboratory Analysis. As required by FHWA regulations, only a laboratory certified by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) to perform urinalysis for the detection of the presence of controlled substances will be retained by the City. The laboratory will be required to maintain strict compliance with federally approved chain-of-custody procedures, quality control, maintenance, and scientific analytical methodologies.
Laboratory Analysis. TENANT shall submit laboratory results for sediment chemistry testing of the dredged material to be placed within the site. Sampling and testing shall be performed by a recognized and qualified party satisfactory to the DISTRICT, demonstrating that no metals, petroleum products, pesticides, and polychlorinated biphenols (PCBs) (commonly measured with chlorinated pesticides) or other contaminants are present in the dredged material. Testing shall conclude whether the sediment to be removed meets Florida Residential Cleanup Target Levels (“RCTL”) and/or Florida Industrial Cleanup Target Levels (“ICTL”) as appropriate to the intended disposal site(s). If the material does not meet the RCTL but meets the ICTL, then the TENANT shall certify to the DISTRICT that the material shall only be used for commercial, industrial and/or road base sites. The TENANT and any sub-contractor(s) shall comply with the Plan at all times. In the event that the material does not meet the ICTL, then either party may terminate this Agreement. A minimum of two (2) composite samples from the in situ dredged material will be sufficient to characterize the sediment chemistry as described above.
Laboratory Analysis. All laboratory analyses shall be performed at a DWR-certified laboratory using approved methods as prescribed by section 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations part 136 (40 CFR part 136) or other methods certified by the DWR Laboratory Certification Branch (xxxx://xxx.xx.xxx/about/divisions/water- resources/water-resources-data/water-sciences-home-page/laboratory-certification-branch) or the Director of XXX. 00 XXX Part 136 can be accessed on the web at xxxx://xxx.xx.xxx/about/divisions/water- resources/water-resources-data/water-sciences-home-page/laboratory-certification-branch/rules- regulations. Reporting levels will be at least as stringent as the reporting levels used by the DWR Laboratory. For guidance purposes Table 3 lists target reporting levels for each parameter based on the reporting levels of the DWR Laboratory. The lowest possible analytical limits for all the parameters should be pursued.
Laboratory Analysis. The samples will be analyzed by an analytical laboratory certified by the California Department of Toxic Substances Control to perform the required analyses. Each analysis will be performed in accordance with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste (SW-846). Samples will be collected from the point-of-compliance wellx xx a semi-annual basis and analyzed for the COCs according to the following methods: - VOC analysis: EPA Method 8021; - SVOC analysis: EPA Method 8270; - PCB analysis: EPA Method 8270; - Ammonia analysis: EPA Method 350. In addition, to assess whether metal and pesticide concentrations in leachate and upgradient groundwater vary significantly over time, samples will be collected from selected leachate wellx (X-2A, X-0, xxd S-3A) and upgradient shallow groundwater well (UPG-2) on a bi-annual basis and analyzed according to the following methods: - Selected metals: EPA 6010 or 7000 series methods (As-Method 7061, Cr-Method 6010, Pb-Method 7421, Se-Method 7740); and - Pesticides: EPA Method 8080.
Laboratory Analysis. The samples will be submitted to an independent laboratory which participates in the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) Texas Laboratory Accreditation Program (TLAP) and is accredited with the National Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Conference (NELAC) standard for matrices, methods, and parameters of analysis. The samples will normally be analyzed on a rushed 2-day business day turnaround time. The analysis to be performed is described below.

b. Technical reports in which lab data is addressed (Use Reports pay item)
Laboratory Analysis. All urine specimens tested for drugs of abuse under this policy will be analyzed at a laboratory certified by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). The laboratory selected by the Village for testing conducted under this policy is: Quest Diagnostics 000 X. Xxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000 All specimens will be tested for the drug or drug classes listed in Section II using an immunoassay screen approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The immunoassay screen will use cut-off levels established by the DHHS and DOT to eliminate negative specimens from further consideration. Any presumptive positive test will be subject to confirmation analysis. Any urine specimen identified as positive on the initial screen will be confirmed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) methodology. GC/MS analysis will use cut-off levels established by the DHHS and DOT for confirmation. Any specimen that does not contain drug or drug metabolites above the GC/MS confirmation cut-off levels will be reported by the laboratory as negative. When appropriate, the laboratory may conduct analyses to determine if the specimen has been adulterated. Adulteration tests include but are not limited to specific gravity, creatinine, and pH. In addition, the laboratory may conduct additional analyses to identify or detect a specific adulterant added to the urine specimen. If the laboratory identifies an adulterant added to the specimen, the laboratory will report the specimen as adulterated. If the laboratory determines that the specimen is inconsistent with human urine, the laboratory will report the specimen as substituted. If the laboratory is unable to obtain a valid screening or confirmation analysis, the laboratory will report the specimen as Invalid. If the laboratory determines that the specimen’s specific gravity and creatinine are lower than the normal range, the laboratory will report the specimen as dilute. The laboratory will report all test results to the Medical Review Officer (MRO) by confidential, secure electronic (not telephone) or hard copy transmission. Negative specimens will be destroyed and discarded by the laboratory after results are reported to the MRO. Non-negative specimens (Positive, Adulterated, Substituted, Invalid) specimens will be retained in long-term frozen storage (-20 degrees C or less) for a minimum of one (1) year.
