Details: SUMMARY: TC/EC Positive Alert Response - Sample Invalidation DETAILS: Received a call from Dave Cullens. The repeat sample collected 10/21 at the same location as the 10/19 TC+/EC+ result also tested TC+/EC+. Both repeat samples collected upstream and downstream tested TC absent. This meets the requirements to invalidate the original TC+/EC+ routine sample. Both triggered source samples collected at wells #1 and #2 also tested TC absent. Those were the only two wells that were in use at the time of the 10/19 positive, so only two triggered source samples from those wells were required. ACTION NEEDED: DWP to invalidate the 10/19 TC+/EC+ routine sample, PWS to collect one more routine sample this month as a replacemement.
