US EPA.\4\ U.S. Geological Survey Techniques of Water-Resource Investigations, Book 5, Laboratory Analysis, Chapter A4, Methods for Collection and Analysis of
Aquatic Biological and Microbiological Samples. 1989. USGS.\5\ Because the MF technique usually yields low and variable recovery from chlorinated wastewaters, the Most Probable Number method will be required to
resolve any controversies.\6\ Tests must be conducted to provide organism enumeration (density). Select the appropriate configuration of tubes/filtrations and dilutions/volumes
to account for the quality, character, consistency, and anticipated organism density of the water sample.\7\ When the MF method has been used previously to test waters with high turbidity, large numbers of noncoliform bacteria, or samples that may contain
organisms stressed by chlorine, a parallel test should be conducted with a multiple-tube technique to demonstrate applicability and comparability of
results.\8\ To assess the comparability of results obtained with individual methods, it is suggested that side-by-side tests be conducted across seasons of the
year with the water samples routinely tested in accordance with the most current Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater or EPA
alternate test procedure (ATP) guidelines.\9\ Annual Book of ASTM Standards-Water and Environmental Technology, Section 11.02. 2000, 1999, 1996. ASTM International.

Lactose broth may be used in lieu of lauryl tryptose broth (LTB), if at least 25
parallel tests are conducted between this broth and LTB using the water samples normally tested, and this comparison demonstrates that the false-
positive rate and false-negative rate for total coliform using lactose broth is less than 10 percent. No requirement exists to run the completed phase
on 10 percent of all total coliform-positive tubes on a seasonal basis.\13\ These tests are collectively known as defined enzyme substrate tests, where, for example, a substrate is used to detect the enzyme [beta]-
glucuronidase produced by E. coli.\14\ After prior enrichment in a presumptive medium for total coliform using 9221B.1-2006, all presumptive tubes or bottles showing any amount of gas,
growth or acidity within 48 h 3 h of incubation shall be submitted to 9221F-2006. Commercially available EC-MUG media or EC

within 18 h of incubation at 35 [deg]C rather than the 24 h required for the Colilert[supreg] test and is recommended for marine water samples.\18\ Descriptions of the Colilert[supreg], Colilert-18[supreg], Quanti-Tray[supreg], and Quanti-Tray[supreg]/2000 may be obtained from IDEXX

International.\4\ For the determination of total metals (which are equivalent to total recoverable metals) the sample is not filtered before processing. A digestion
procedure is required to solubilize analytes in suspended material and to break down organic-metal complexes (to convert the analyte to a detectable
form for colorimetric analysis). For non-platform graphite furnace atomic absorption determinations a digestion using nitric acid (as specified in
Section 4.1.3 of Methods for the Chemical Analysis of Water and Wastes) is required prior to analysis. The procedure used should subject the sample to
gentle, acid refluxing and at no time should the sample be taken to dryness. For direct aspiration flame atomic absorption determinations (FLAA) a
combination acid (nitric and hydrochloric acids) digestion is preferred prior to analysis. The approved total recoverable digestion is described as
Method 200.2 in Supplement I of ``Methods for the Determination of Metals in Environmental Samples'' EPA/600R-94/111, May, 1994, and is reproduced in
EPA Methods 200.7, 200.8, and 200.9 from the same Supplement. However, when using the gaseous hydride technique or for the determination of certain
elements such as antimony, arsenic, selenium, silver, and tin by non-EPA graphite furnace atomic absorption methods, mercury by cold vapor atomic
absorption, the noble metals and titanium by FLAA, a specific or modified sample digestion procedure may be required and in all cases the referenced
method write-up should be consulted for specific instruction and/or cautions. For analyses using inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission
spectrometry (ICP-AES), the direct current plasma (DCP) technique or the EPA spectrochemical techniques (platform furnace AA, ICP-AES, and ICP-MS) use
EPA Method 200.2 or an approved alternate procedure (e.g., CEM microwave digestion, which may be used with certain analytes as indicated in Table IB);
the total recoverable digestion procedures in EPA Methods 200.7, 200.8, and 200.9 may be used for those respective methods. Regardless of the
digestion procedure, the results of the analysis after digestion procedure are reported as ``total'' metals.\5\ Copper sulfate or other catalysts that have been found suitable may be used in place of mercuric sulfate.\6\ Manual distillation is not required if comparability data on representative effluent samples are on file to show that this preliminary distillation
step is not necessary: however, manual distillation will be required to resolve any controversies. In general, the analytical method should be
consulted regarding the need for distillation. If the method is not clear, the laboratory may compare a minimum of 9 different sample matrices to
evaluate the need for distillation. For each matrix, a matrix spike and matrix spike duplicate are analyzed both with and without the distillation
step. (A total of 36 samples, assuming 9 matrices). If results are comparable, the laboratory may dispense with the distillation step for future
analysis. Comparable is defined as <20% RPD for all tested matrices). Alternatively the two populations of spike recovery percentages may be compared
using a recognized statistical test.\7\ Industrial Method Number 379-75 WE Ammonia, Automated Electrode Method, Technicon Auto Analyzer II. February 19, 1976. Bran & Luebbe Analyzing

\12\ Carbonaceous biochemical oxygen demand (CBOD5) must not be confused with the traditional BOD5 test method which measures ``total BOD.'' The
addition of the nitrification inhibitor is not a procedural option, but must be included to report the CBOD5 parameter. A discharger whose permit
requires reporting the traditional BOD5 may not use a nitrification inhibitor in the procedure for reporting the results. Only when a discharger's
permit specifically states CBOD5 is required can the permittee report data using a nitrification inhibitor.\13\ OIC Chemical Oxygen Demand Method. 1978.

47(3):421-426.\29\ Approved methods for the analysis of silver in industrial wastewaters at concentrations of 1 mg/L and above are inadequate where silver exists as
an inorganic halide. Silver halides such as the bromide and chloride are relatively insoluble in reagents such as nitric acid but are readily soluble
in an aqueous buffer of sodium thiosulfate and sodium hydroxide to pH of 12. Therefore, for levels of silver above 1 mg/L, 20 mL of sample should be
diluted to 100 mL by adding 40 mL each of 2 M Na2S2O3 and NaOH. Standards should be prepared in the same manner. For levels of silver below 1 mg/L the
approved method is satisfactory.\30\ The use of EDTA decreases method sensitivity. Analysts may omit EDTA or replace with another suitable complexing reagent provided that all method
specified quality control acceptance criteria are met.\31\ For samples known or suspected to contain high levels of silver (e.g., in excess of 4 mg/L), cyanogen iodide should be used to keep the silver in
solution for analysis. Prepare a cyanogen iodide solution by adding 4.0 mL of concentrated NH4OH, 6.5 g of KCN, and 5.0 mL of a 1.0 N solution of I2
to 50 mL of reagent water in a volumetric flask and dilute to 100.0 mL. After digestion of the sample, adjust the pH of the digestate to >7 to prevent
the formation of HCN under acidic conditions. Add 1 mL of the cyanogen iodide solution to the sample digestate and adjust the volume to 100 mL with
reagent water (NOT acid). If cyanogen iodide is added to sample digestates, then silver standards must be prepared that contain cyanogen iodide as
well. Prepare working standards by diluting a small volume of a silver stock solution with water and adjusting the pH>7 with NH4OH. Add 1 mL of the
cyanogen iodide solution and let stand 1 hour. Transfer to a 100-mL volumetric flask and dilute to volume with water.\32\ ``Water Temperature-Influential Factors, Field Measurement and Data Presentation,'' Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations of the U.S.

US EPA. Note: A 450-W UV lamp may be used in this method instead of the 550-W lamp specified if it provides performance within the quality control
(QC) acceptance criteria of the method in a given instrument. Similarly, modified flow cell configurations and flow conditions may be used in the
method, provided that the QC acceptance criteria are met.\56\ QuikChem Method 10-204-00-1-X, Digestion and Distillation of Total Cyanide in Drinking and Wastewaters using MICRO DIST and Determination of
Cyanide by Flow Injection Analysis. Revision 2.2, March 2005. Lachat Instruments.\57\ When using sulfide removal test procedures described in EPA Method 335.4-1, reconstitute particulate that is filtered with the sample prior to
distillation.\58\ Unless otherwise stated, if the language of this table specifies a sample digestion and/or distillation ``followed by'' analysis with a method,
approved digestion and/or distillation are required prior to analysis.\59\ Samples analyzed for available cyanide using OI Analytical method OIA-1677-09 or ASTM method D6888-09 that contain particulate matter may be
filtered only after the ligand exchange reagents have been added to the samples, because the ligand exchange process converts complexes containing
available cyanide to free cyanide, which is not removed by filtration. Analysts are further cautioned to limit the time between the addition of the
ligand exchange reagents and sample filtration to no more than 30 minutes to preclude settling of materials in samples.\60\ Analysts should be aware that pH optima and chromophore absorption maxima might differ when phenol is replaced by a substituted phenol as the color
reagent in Berthelot Reaction (``phenol-hypochlorite reaction'') colorimetric ammonium determination methods. For example when phenol is used as the
color reagent, pH optimum and wavelength of maximum absorbance are about 11.5 and 635 nm, respectively--see, Patton, C.J. and S.R. Crouch. March 1977.
Anal. Chem. 49:464-469. These reaction parameters increase to pH 12.6 and 665 nm when salicylate is used as the color reagent--see, Krom,
M.D. April 1980. The Analyst 105:305-316.\61\ If atomic absorption or ICP instrumentation is not available, the aluminon colorimetric method detailed in the 19th Edition of Standard Methods may
be used. This method has poorer precision and bias than the methods of choice.\62\ Easy (1-Reagent) Nitrate Method, Revision November 12, 2011.

Appendix B, Definition and Procedure for the Determination of the Method Detection Limit, of this Part 136.
\3\ Methods for Benzidine: Chlorinated Organic Compounds, Pentachlorophenol and Pesticides in Water and Wastewater. September 1978. U.S. EPA.\4\ Method 624 may be used for quantitative determination of acrolein and acrylonitrile, provided that the laboratory has documentation to substantiate
the ability to detect and quantify these analytes at levels necessary to comply with any associated regulations. In addition, the use of sample
introduction techniques other than simple purge-and-trap may be required. QC acceptance criteria from Method 603 should be used when analyzing samples
for acrolein and acrylonitrile in the absence of such criteria in Method 624.\5\ Method 625 may be extended to include benzidine, hexachlorocyclopentadiene, N-nitrosodimethylamine, N-nitrosodi-n-propylamine, and N-
nitrosodiphenylamine. However, when they are known to be present, Methods 605, 607, and 612, or Method 1625B, are preferred methods for these
compounds.\5a\ Method 625, screening only.\6\ Selected Analytical Methods Approved and Cited by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, Supplement to the 15th Edition of Standard
Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater. 1981. American Public Health Association (APHA).\7\ Each analyst must make an initial, one-time demonstration of their ability to generate acceptable precision and accuracy with Methods 601-603, 624,
625, 1624B, and 1625B in accordance with procedures each in Section 8.2 of each of these Methods. Additionally, each laboratory, on an on-going basis
must spike and analyze 10% (5% for Methods 624 and 625 and 100% for methods 1624B and 1625B) of all samples to monitor and evaluate laboratory data
quality in accordance with Sections 8.3 and 8.4 of these methods. When the recovery of any parameter falls outside the warning limits, the analytical
results for that parameter in the unspiked sample are suspect. The results should be reported, but cannot be used to demonstrate regulatory
compliance. These quality control requirements also apply to the Standard Methods, ASTM Methods, and other methods cited.\8\ Organochlorine Pesticides and PCBs in Wastewater Using Empore \TM\ Disk.

in accordance with procedures given in Section 8.2 of each of these methods. Additionally, each laboratory, on an on-going basis, must spike and
analyze 10% of all samples analyzed with Method 608 or 5% of all samples analyzed with Method 625 to monitor and evaluate laboratory data quality in
accordance with Sections 8.3 and 8.4 of these methods. When the recovery of any parameter falls outside the warning limits, the analytical results for
that parameter in the unspiked sample are suspect. The results should be reported, but cannot be used to demonstrate regulatory compliance. These

US EPA.\4\ U.S. Geological Survey Techniques of Water-Resource Investigations, Book 5, Laboratory Analysis, Chapter A4, Methods for Collection and Analysis of
Aquatic Biological and Microbiological Samples. 1989. USGS.\5\ Because the MF technique usually yields low and variable recovery from chlorinated wastewaters, the Most Probable Number method will be required to
resolve any controversies.\6\ Tests must be conducted to provide organism enumeration (density). Select the appropriate configuration of tubes/filtrations and dilutions/volumes
to account for the quality, character, consistency, and anticipated organism density of the water sample.
\7\ When the MF method has not been used previously to test waters with high turbidity, large numbers of noncoliform bacteria, or samples that may
contain organisms stressed by chlorine, a parallel test should be conducted with a multiple-tube technique to demonstrate applicability and
comparability of results.\8\ To assess the comparability of results obtained with individual methods, it is suggested that side-by-side tests be conducted across seasons of the
year with the water samples routinely tested in accordance with the most current Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater or EPA
alternate test procedure (ATP) guidelines.\9\ Annual Book of ASTM Standards--Water and Environmental Technology. Section 11.02. 2000, 1999, 1996.

parallel tests are conducted between this broth and LTB using the water samples normally tested, and this comparison demonstrates that the false-
positive rate and false-negative rate for total coliform using lactose broth is less than 10 percent. No requirement exists to run the completed phase
on 10 percent of all total coliform-positive tubes on a seasonal basis.\12\ These tests are collectively known as defined enzyme substrate tests, where, for example, a substrate is used to detect the enzyme [beta]-
glucuronidase produced by E. coli.\13\ After prior enrichment in a presumptive medium for total coliform using 9221B.1-2006, all presumptive tubes or bottles showing any amount of gas,
growth or acidity within 48 h 3 h of incubation shall be submitted to 9221F-2006. Commercially available EC-MUG media or EC
media supplemented in the laboratory with 50 [micro]g/mL of MUG may be used.\14\ Samples shall be enumerated by the multiple-tube or multiple-well procedure. Using multiple-tube procedures, employ an appropriate tube and
dilution configuration of the sample as needed and report the Most Probable Number (MPN). Samples tested with Colilert[supreg] may be enumerated with
the multiple-well procedures, Quanti-Tray[supreg] or Quanti-Tray[supreg]/2000, and the MPN calculated from the table provided by the manufacturer.\15\ Colilert-18[supreg] is an optimized formulation of the Colilert[supreg] for the determination of total coliforms and E. coli that provides results
within 18 h of incubation at 35 [deg]C, rather than the 24 h required for the Colilert[supreg] test, and is recommended for marine water samples.\16\ Descriptions of the Colilert[supreg], Colilert-18[supreg], Quanti-Tray[supreg], and Quanti-Tray[supreg]/2000 may be obtained from IDEXX

(c) Under certain circumstances, the Regional Administrator or the Director in the Region or State where the discharge will occur may determine for a particular discharge that additional parameters or pollutants must be reported. Under such circumstances, additional test procedures for analysis of pollutants may be specified by the Regional Administrator, or the Director upon recommendation of the Alternate Test Procedure Program Coordinator, Washington, DC.
(d) Under certain circumstances, the Administrator may approve additional alternate test procedures for nationwide use, upon recommendation by the Alternate Test Procedure Program Coordinator, Washington, DC.
(e) Sample preservation procedures, container materials, and maximum allowable holding times for parameters are cited in Tables IA, IB, IC, ID, IE, IF, IG, and IH are prescribed in Table II. Information in the table takes precedence over information in specific methods or elsewhere. Any person may apply for a change from the prescribed preservation techniques, container materials, and maximum holding times applicable to samples taken from a specific discharge. Applications for such limited use changes may be made by letters to the Regional Alternative Test Procedure (ATP) Program Coordinator or the permitting authority in the Region in which the discharge will occur. Sufficient data should be provided to assure such changes in sample preservation, containers or holding times do not adversely affect the integrity of the sample. The Regional ATP Coordinator or permitting authority will review the application and then notify the applicant and the appropriate State agency of approval or rejection of the use of the alternate test procedure. A decision to approve or deny any request on deviations from the prescribed Table II requirements will be made within 90 days of receipt of the application by the Regional Administrator. An analyst may not modify any sample preservation and/or holding time requirements of an approved method unless the requirements of this section are met.

other fluoropolymer, unless stated otherwise in this Table II; ``G'' is glass; ``PA'' is any plastic that is
made of a sterilizable material (polypropylene or other autoclavable plastic); ``LDPE'' is low density
polyethylene.\2\ Except where noted in this Table II and the method for the parameter, preserve each grab sample within 15
minutes of collection. For a composite sample collected with an automated sample (e.g., using a 24-hour
composite sample; see 40 CFR 122.21(g)(7)(i) or 40 CFR Part 403, Appendix E), refrigerate the sample at <=6
[deg]C during collection unless specified otherwise in this Table II or in the method(s). For a composite
sample to be split into separate aliquots for preservation and/or analysis, maintain the sample at <=6 [deg]C,
unless specified otherwise in this Table II or in the method(s), until collection, splitting, and preservation
is completed. Add the preservative to the sample container prior to sample collection when the preservative
will not compromise the integrity of a grab sample, a composite sample, or aliquot split from a composite
sample within 15 minutes of collection. If a composite measurement is required but a composite sample would
compromise sample integrity, individual grab samples must be collected at prescribed time intervals (e.g., 4
samples over the course of a day, at 6-hour intervals). Grab samples must be analyzed separately and the
concentrations averaged. Alternatively, grab samples may be collected in the field and composited in the
laboratory if the compositing procedure produces results equivalent to results produced by arithmetic
averaging of results of analysis of individual grab samples. For examples of laboratory compositing
procedures, see EPA Method 1664 Rev. A (oil and grease) and the procedures at 40 CFR 141.34(f)(14)(iv) and (v)
(volatile organics).\3\ When any sample is to be shipped by common carrier or sent via the U.S. Postal Service, it must comply with
the Department of Transportation Hazardous Materials Regulations (49 CFR part 172). The person offering such
material for transportation is responsible for ensuring such compliance. For the preservation requirement of
Table II, the Office of Hazardous Materials, Materials Transportation Bureau, Department of Transportation has
determined that the Hazardous Materials Regulations do not apply to the following materials: Hydrochloric acid
(HCl) in water solutions at concentrations of 0.04% by weight or less (pH about 1.96 or greater; Nitric acid
(HNO3) in water solutions at concentrations of 0.15% by weight or less (pH about 1.62 or greater); Sulfuric
acid (H2SO4) in water solutions at concentrations of 0.35% by weight or less (pH about 1.15 or greater); and
Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) in water solutions at concentrations of 0.080% by weight or less (pH about 12.30 or
less).
\4\ Samples should be analyzed as soon as possible after collection. The times listed are the maximum times that
samples may be held before the start of analysis and still be considered valid. Samples may be held for longer
periods only if the permittee or monitoring laboratory has data on file to show that, for the specific types
of samples under study, the analytes are stable for the longer time, and has received a variance from the
Regional Administrator under Sec. 136.3(e). For a grab sample, the holding time begins at the time of
collection. For a composite sample collected with an automated sampler (e.g., using a 24-hour composite
sampler; see 40 CFR 122.21(g)(7)(i) or 40 CFR part 403, Appendix E), the holding time begins at the time of
the end of collection of the composite sample. For a set of grab samples composited in the field or
laboratory, the holding time begins at the time of collection of the last grab sample in the set. Some samples
may not be stable for the maximum time period given in the table. A permittee or monitoring laboratory is
obligated to hold the sample for a shorter time if it knows that a shorter time is necessary to maintain
sample stability. See 136.3(e) for details. The date and time of collection of an individual grab sample is
the date and time at which the sample is collected. For a set of grab samples to be composited, and that are
all collected on the same calendar date, the date of collection is the date on which the samples are
collected. For a set of grab samples to be composited, and that are collected across two calendar dates, the
date of collection is the dates of the two days; e.g., November 14-15. For a composite sample collected
automatically on a given date, the date of collection is the date on which the sample is collected. For a
composite sample collected automatically, and that is collected across two calendar dates, the date of
collection is the dates of the two days; e.g., November 14-15. For static-renewal toxicity tests, each grab or
composite sample may also be used to prepare test solutions for renewal at 24 h, 48 h, and/or 72 h after first
use, if stored at 0-6 [deg]C, with minimum head space.\5\ ASTM D7365-09a specifies treatment options for samples containing oxidants (e.g., chlorine). Also, Section
9060A of Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater (20th and 21st editions) addresses
dechlorination procedures.\6\ Sampling, preservation and mitigating interferences in water samples for analysis of cyanide are described
in ASTM D7365-09a. There may be interferences that are not mitigated by the analytical test methods or D7365-
09a. Any technique for removal or suppression of interference may be employed, provided the laboratory
demonstrates that it more accurately measures cyanide through quality control measures described in the
analytical test method. Any removal or suppression technique not described in D7365-09a or the analytical test
method must be documented along with supporting data.\7\ For dissolved metals, filter grab samples within 15 minutes of collection and before adding preservatives.
For a composite sample collected with an automated sampler (e.g., using a 24-hour composite sampler; see 40
CFR 122.21(g)(7)(i) or 40 CFR Part 403, Appendix E), filter the sample within 15 minutes after completion of
collection and before adding preservatives. If it is known or suspected that dissolved sample integrity will
be compromised during collection of a composite sample collected automatically over time (e.g., by interchange
of a metal between dissolved and suspended forms), collect and filter grab samples to be composited (footnote
2) in place of a composite sample collected automatically.\8\ Guidance applies to samples to be analyzed by GC, LC, or GC/MS for specific compounds.\9\ If the sample is not adjusted to pH 2, then the sample must be analyzed within seven days of sampling.\10\ The pH adjustment is not required if acrolein will not be measured. Samples for acrolein receiving no pH
adjustment must be analyzed within 3 days of sampling.\11\ When the extractable analytes of concern fall within a single chemical category, the specified preservative
and maximum holding times should be observed for optimum safeguard of sample integrity (i.e., use all
necessary preservatives and hold for the shortest time listed). When the analytes of concern fall within two
or more chemical categories, the sample may be preserved by cooling to <=6 [deg]C, reducing residual chlorine
with 0.008% sodium thiosulfate, storing in the dark, and adjusting the pH to 6-9; samples preserved in this
manner may be held for seven days before extraction and for forty days after extraction. Exceptions to this
optional preservation and holding time procedure are noted in footnote 5 (regarding the requirement for
thiosulfate reduction), and footnotes 12, 13 (regarding the analysis of benzidine).\12\ If 1,2-diphenylhydrazine is likely to be present, adjust the pH of the sample to 4.0 0.2 to prevent rearrangement to benzidine.\13\ Extracts may be stored up to 30 days at <0 [deg]C.\14\ For the analysis of diphenylnitrosamine, add 0.008% Na2S2O3 and adjust pH to 7-10 with NaOH within 24 hours
of sampling.\15\ The pH adjustment may be performed upon receipt at the laboratory and may be omitted if the samples are
extracted within 72 hours of collection. For the analysis of aldrin, add 0.008% Na2S2O3.\16\ Place sufficient ice with the samples in the shipping container to ensure that ice is still present when
the samples arrive at the laboratory. However, even if ice is present when the samples arrive, immediately
measure the temperature of the samples and confirm that the preservation temperature maximum has not been
exceeded. In the isolated cases where it can be documented that this holding temperature cannot be met, the
permittee can be given the option of on-site testing or can request a variance. The request for a variance
should include supportive data which show that the toxicity of the effluent samples is not reduced because of
the increased holding temperature. Aqueous samples must not be frozen. Hand-delivered samples used on the day
of collection do not need to be cooled to 0 to 6 [deg]C prior to test initiation.\17\ Samples collected for the determination of trace level mercury (<100 ng/L) using EPA Method 1631 must be
collected in tightly-capped fluoropolymer or glass bottles and preserved with BrCl or HCl solution within 48
hours of sample collection. The time to preservation may be extended to 28 days if a sample is oxidized in the
sample bottle. A sample collected for dissolved trace level mercury should be filtered in the laboratory
within 24 hours of the time of collection. However, if circumstances preclude overnight shipment, the sample
should be filtered in a designated clean area in the field in accordance with procedures given in Method 1669.
If sample integrity will not be maintained by shipment to and filtration in the laboratory, the sample must be
filtered in a designated clean area in the field within the time period necessary to maintain sample
integrity. A sample that has been collected for determination of total or dissolved trace level mercury must
be analyzed within 90 days of sample collection.\18\ Aqueous samples must be preserved at <=6 [deg]C, and should not be frozen unless data demonstrating that
sample freezing does not adversely impact sample integrity is maintained on file and accepted as valid by the
regulatory authority. Also, for purposes of NPDES monitoring, the specification of ``<=[deg]C'' is used in
place of the ``4 [deg]C'' and ``<4 [deg]C'' sample temperature requirements listed in some methods. It is not
necessary to measure the sample temperature to three significant figures (1/100th of 1 degree); rather, three
significant figures are specified so that rounding down to 6 [deg]C may not be used to meet the <=6 [deg]C
requirement. The preservation temperature does not apply to samples that are analyzed immediately (less than
15 minutes).\19\ An aqueous sample may be collected and shipped without acid preservation. However, acid must be added at
least 24 hours before analysis to dissolve any metals that adsorb to the container walls. If the sample must
be analyzed within 24 hours of collection, add the acid immediately (see footnote 2). Soil and sediment
samples do not need to be preserved with acid. The allowances in this footnote supersede the preservation and
holding time requirements in the approved metals methods.\20\ To achieve the 28-day holding time, use the ammonium sulfate buffer solution specified in EPA Method 218.6.
The allowance in this footnote supersedes preservation and holding time requirements in the approved
hexavalent chromium methods, unless this supersession would compromise the measurement, in which case
requirements in the method must be followed.\21\ Holding time is calculated from time of sample collection to elution for samples shipped to the laboratory
in bulk and calculated from the time of sample filtration to elution for samples filtered in the field.\22\ Sample analysis should begin as soon as possible after receipt; sample incubation must be started no later
than 8 hours from time of collection.\23\ For fecal coliform samples for sewage sludge (biosolids) only, the holding time is extended to 24 hours for
the following sample types using either EPA Method 1680 (LTB-EC) or 1681 (A-1): Class A composted, Class B
aerobically digested, and Class B anaerobically digested.\24\ The immediate filtration requirement in orthophosphate measurement is to assess the dissolved or bio-
available form of orthophosphorus (i.e., that which passes through a 0.45-micron filter), hence the
requirement to filter the sample immediately upon collection (i.e., within 15 minutes of collection). [38 FR 28758, Oct. 16, 1973]
