Recommendation<br />

Response<br />

The text will go as follows:<br />

Data qualifications have been<br />

per<strong>for</strong>med in accordance to LCG.<br />

The qualification “UJ” is defined as<br />

<strong>the</strong> estimates (J) to non-detects (U)<br />

<strong>for</strong> non-metals. It is to be noted that<br />

LCG has a much stringent (or<br />

difficult) QA/QC criteria (except <strong>for</strong><br />

VOC) than SW-846, Contract<br />

Laboratory Protocol (CLP) and<br />

Department of Defense Quality<br />

System Management Plan (DOD<br />

QSM).<br />

(g) Metals: There is no<br />

qualification needed as far<br />

as LCG is concerned.<br />

TestAmerica assigned “J”<br />

(only in case of metals “J”<br />

qualifier is applied <strong>for</strong> blank<br />

contamination) <strong>for</strong> blank<br />

contamination in metal<br />

samples. However, in all<br />

those cases <strong>the</strong> metal<br />

concentrations in <strong>the</strong> blank<br />

were below one half of <strong>the</strong><br />

reporting limit. Thus, no<br />

qualification or correction is<br />

required.<br />

(h) SVOCs: LCG does not<br />

address sample qualification<br />

criteria when associated<br />

method blank and LCS<br />

yields out of range<br />

recoveries. Although<br />

recoveries of 2,4,6tribromophenol<br />

(a surrogate)<br />

was below LCG allowable<br />

limit 50-150% in <strong>the</strong> method
