<br /> Batch A distinct set of samples analyzed at a specific time
<br /> Found Value of the QC Type of interest
<br /> Limit Upper limit for RPD,in%
<br /> Lower Lower Recovery Limit,in% (except for LCSS,mg/Kg)
<br /> MDL Method Detection Limit Same as Minimum Reporting Limit unless omitted or equal to the PQL(see comment#5)
<br /> Allows for instrument and annual fluctuations.
<br /> PCN/SCN A number assigned to reagents/standards to trace to the manufacturers certificate of analysis
<br /> PQL Practical Quantitation Limit Synonymous with the EPA term"minimum level"
<br /> QC True Value of the Control Sample or the amount added to the Spike
<br /> Rec Recovered amount of the true value or spike added,in%(except for LCSS,mg/Kg)
<br /> RPD Relative Percent Difference,calculation used for Duplicate QC Types
<br /> Upper Upper Recovery Limit,in% (except for LCSS,mg/Kg)

<br /> Blanks Verifies that there is no or minimal contamination in the prep method or calibration procedure
<br /> Control Samples Venfies the accuracy of the method,including the prep procedure
<br /> Duplicates Verifies the precision of the instrument and/or method
<br /> Spikes/Fortified Matrix Determines sample matrix interferences,if any
<br /> Standard Verifies the validity of the calibration
<br /> «, «
<br /> B Analyte concentration detected at a value between MDL and PQL The associated value is an estimated quantity
<br /> H Analysis exceeded method hold time pH is a field test with an immediate hold time
<br /> L Target analyte response was below the laboratory defined negative threshold
<br /> U The material was analyzed for,but was not detected above the level of the associated value
<br /> The associated value is either the sample quantitation limit or the sample detection limit

<br /> (1) QC results calculated from raw data Results may vary slightly if the rounded values are used in the calculations
<br /> (2) Soil,Sludge,and Plant matrices for Inorganic analyses are reported on a dry weight basis
<br /> (3) Animal matrices for Inorganic analyses are reported on an"as received"basis
<br /> (4) An asterisk in the"XQ"column indicates there is an extended qualifier and/or certification qualifier
<br /> associated with the result
<br /> (5) If the MDL equals the PQL or the MDL column is omitted,the PQL is the reporting limit
