EDF 1.2i Data Dictionary Rev. 2, 07/23/20012
Valid Value Fields
Various data fields in the EDF require entry of valid values (codes, also known as “VVLs”).Valid values are built-in codes that the format requires for certain fields, such as contractornames, matrices, and laboratories. The reason for using specific values for these fields is tostandardize the data entry, to ensure data consistency and prevent errors. Freely entered datamight contain extra spaces, commas, or dashes that would make meaningful datamanipulation and thorough or accurate data searches impossible.
Most valid values are abbreviations of common or proper names; hence selecting the correctcode is generally straightforward. However, some valid values are also used to link dataproperly (e.g., QCCODE is used to help link a laboratory replicate [“LR1”] to its originalfield sample [“CS”]). This Data Dictionary provides lists of the valid value codes and theirdefinitions for each valid value field in the EDF.
New valid value codes can be requested Monday through Friday between 9:00 a.m. and6:00 p.m. Pacific Standard Time through the office of ArsenaultLegg, Inc., by phone (907)346-3827, fax (907) 346-1577, or e-mail [email protected]. Please allow 72hours for code generation.

MATRIX
EDF 1.2i Data Dictionary Rev. 2, 07/23/200184
MATRIX
Definition: The MATRIX field identifies the sample’s medium or make-up (e.g., soil, air,water, etc.), as categorized by the analytical laboratory.
Attributes: C2
Included in Tables: SAMPLETESTRESULTSQCCLEDFFLAT
Guidelines & Restrictions:• MATRIX may not be left blank.
• MATRIX must contain a valid value.
• Laboratory-generated QC samples using only laboratory reagents may be assignedQC MATRIX codes such as “WQ” (“Water QC Matrix”) for a blank spike. (The useof “*Q” MATRIX codes is recommended for data that will be converted into the AirForce Center for Environmental Excellence [AFCEE] Environmental ResourcesProgram Information Management System [ERPIMS] formats, but is not required.)
• Laboratory-generated samples which use the original environmental sample matrixare assigned the MATRIX code that describes the original sample matrix, rather thanthe QC sample matrix, (e.g., a matrix spiked waste water sample would be assigned“WW” [“Waste Water”] rather than “WQ” [“Water QC Matrix”]).
• When the laboratory is not completely informed about the exact sample matrix, itshould enter the more general MATRIX codes (such as “W” for “Water” and “SO”for “Soil”).
