A The following report summarises extraction I preparation and analysis times and compares with recommended holding times. Dates reported represent fi rst date of extraction or analysis and precludes subsequent dilutions and rerun s. Information is also provided re the sample conta iner (preservative) from which the analysis aliquot was taken. Elapsed period to analysis represents number of days from sampling where no extraction I digestion is involved or period from extraction I digestion where this is present. For composite samples, sampling date is assumed to be that of the oldest sample contributing to the composi te. Sample date for laboratory produced leachates is assumed as the completion date of the leaching process. Outliers for holding time are based on USEPA SW 846, APHA, AS and NEPM (1999) . A listing of breaches is provided in the Summary of Outliers.
Holding times for leachate methods (excluding elutriates) vary according to the ana lytes being determined on the resulting solution. For non -volati le analytes, the holding time compliance assessment compares the leach date with the shortest ana lyte holding time for the equivalent soil method. These soil holding times are: Organics (14 days) ; Mercury (28 days) & other metals (180 days). A recorded breach therefore does not guarantee a breach for all non-volatile parameters.
A The following report summarises the frequency of laboratory QC samples analysed within the analytical lot(s) in which the submitted sample(s) was(where) processed. Actual rate should be greater than or equal to the expected rate. A listing of breaches is provided in the Summary of Outliers.

NT: Not tested INS: Insufficient sample for this test NA: Test not required
NA: Test not required <: Less than LCS: Laboratory Control Sample
Quality Control Definitions Blank: This is the component of the analytical signal which is not derived from the sample but from reagents, glassware etc, can be determined by processing solvents and reagents in exactly the same manner as for samples. Duplicate: This is the complete duplicate analysis of a sample from the process batch. If possible, the sample selected should be one where the analyte concentration is easily measurable. Matrix Spike: A portion of the sample is spiked with a known concentration of target analyte. The purpose of the matrix spike is to monitor the performance of the analytical method used and to determine whether matrix interferences exist. LCS (Laboratory Control Sample): This comprises either a standard reference material or a control matrix (such as a blank sand or water) fortified with analytes representative of the analyte class. It is simply a check sample. Surrogate Spike: Surrogates are known additions to each sample, blank, matrix spike and LCS in a batch, of compounds which are similar to the analyte of interest, however are not expected to be found in real samples.
Laboratory Acceptance Criteria Duplicate sample and matrix spike recoveries may not be reported on smaller jobs, however, were analysed at a frequency to meet or exceed NEPM requirements. All samples are tested in batched of 20. The duplicate sample RPD and matrix spike recoveries for the batch were within the laboratory acceptance criteria.
Duplicates: <5xPQL - any RPD is acceptable; >5xPQL - 0-50% RPD is acceptable. Matrix Spikes and LCS: Generally 70-130% for inorganics/metals; 60-140% for organics and 10-140% for SVOC and speciated phenols is acceptable.

developed procedures are employed in the absence of documented standards or by client request.
Where moisture determination has been performed, results are reported on a dry weight basis.
Where a reported less than «) result is higher than the LOR, this may be due to primary sample extractldigestate dilution and/or insuffient sample for analysis.
Where the LOR of a reported result differs from standard LOR, this may be due to high moisture content, insufficient sample (reduced weight employed) or matrix interference.
When date(s) and/or time(s) are shown bracketed, these have been assumed by the laboratory for processing purposes. If the sampling time is displayed as 0:00 the information was not provided by client.

• EG005T: Poor precision was obtained for some elements on sample ES106932 #8 due to sample heterogeneity.
• EP066,EP068, EP075(SIM) : Particular samples required dilution due to sample matrix interferences. LOR values have been adjusted accordingly.
• EP080:Level of Reporting raised for toluene due to ambient background levels in the laboratory.
• EP080:The trip spike and its control have been analysed for volatile TPH and BTEX only. The trip spike and control were prepared in the lab using reagent grade sand spiked with petrol.
The spike was dispatched from the lab and the control retained.
Results confirmed by re extraction and reanalysis.

Method Blank (MB) and Laboratory Control Spike (LCS) Report The quality control term Method I Laboratory Blank refers to an analyte free matrix to which all reagents are added in the same volumes or proportions as used in standard sample preparation. The purpose of this QC
parameter is to monitor potential laboratory contamination. The quality control term Laboratory Control Sample (LCS) refers to a certified reference material, or a known interference free matrix spiked with target
analytes. The purpose of this QC parameter is to monitor method precision and accuracy independent of sample matrix. Dynamic Recovery limits are based on statistical evaluation of processed LCS.
