I <br /> FRIEDMAN & BRUYA, INC. <br /> IENVIRONMENTAL CHEMISTS <br /> IData Qualifiers & Definitions <br /> a- The analyte was detected at a level less than five times the reporting limit. The RPD results may <br /> not provide reliable information on the variability of the analysis. <br /> 111 Al—More than one compound of similar molecule structure was identified with equal probability. <br /> b - The analyte was spiked at a level that was less than five times that present in the sample. Matrix <br /> spike recoveries may not be meaningful. <br /> I ca- The calibration results for this range fell outside of acceptance criteria. The value reported is an <br /> estimate. <br /> c - The presence of the analyte indicated may be due to carryover from previous sample injections. <br /> d - The sample was diluted. Detection limits may be raised due to dilution. <br /> ds - The sample was diluted. Detection limits are raised due to dilution and surrogate recoveries may <br /> I not be meaningful. <br /> dv- Insufficient sample was available to achieve normal reporting limits and limits are raised <br /> accordingly. <br /> I fb- The analyte indicated was found in the method blank. The result should be considered an <br /> estimate. • <br /> fc—The compound is a common laboratory and field contaminant. <br /> I hr - The sample and duplicate were reextracted and reanalyzed. RPD results were still outside of <br /> control limits. The variability is attributed to sample inhomogeneity. <br /> ht - The sample was extracted outside of holding time. Results should be considered estimates. <br /> ip - Recovery fell outside of normal control limits. Compounds in the sample matrix interfered with <br /> I the quantitation of the analyte. <br /> j—The result is below normal reporting limits. The value reported is an estimate. <br /> I J- The internal standard associated with the analyte is out of control limits. The reported concentration is <br /> an estimate. <br /> Iii- The analyte result in the laboratory control sample is out of control limits. The reported <br /> concentration should be considered an estimate. <br /> r- The rpd result in laboratory control sample associated with the analyte is out of control limits. <br /> The reported concentration should be considered an estimate. <br /> I js - The surrogate associated with the analyte is out of control limits. The reported concentration <br /> should be considered an estimate. <br /> lc- The presence of the compound indicated is likely due to laboratory contamination. <br /> IL- The reported concentration was generated from a library search. <br /> nm- The analyte was not detected in one or more of the duplicate analyses. Therefore, calculation of <br /> I the RPD is not applicable. <br /> Ec—The sample was received in a container not approved by the method. The value reported should <br /> e considered an estimate. <br /> pr—The sample was received with incorrect preservation. The value reported should be considered <br /> I an estimate. <br /> ve - The value reported exceeded the calibration range established for the analyte. The reported <br /> concentration should be considered an estimate. <br /> Ivo - The value reported fell outside the control limits established for this analyte. <br /> x- The pattern of peaks present is not indicative of diesel. <br /> y The pattern of peaks present is not indicative of motor oil. <br /> 4 <br />
