Abstract:
The new guidance is intended to clarify any potential ambiguities
in the QA Handbook Method 2.12 and to conform with a July 24, 1989
memorandum on the handling of PM10 collocated data. Accordingly, the
memo reiterates that data from a collocated sampler can be substituted
for the primary sampler if the primary sampler was not operating or
did not produce a valid measurement for that same day. The memo also
suggests that State and local agencies enter the substituted collocated
data as parameter occurrence codes 2 (POC-2). |
