Amended December 4, 2001

 

 

 

 

 

 

Version Date: 11/7/01

 

Justification:  Methods for determination of metals in sediment by ICP were incorrect.

 

Summary of Changes: 

             

Table A7.1

 

Detail of Changes:  In Table A7.1 the methods for the determination of metals in sediment by ICP were changed from EPA 200.7 ICP/200.8 ICP-MS to SW-846 6010 ICP/6020 ICP-MS.  Please find the amended pages of Table A7.1 attached to this document.

 

 

 

These changes will be incorporated into the QAPP document. TNRCC and the Planning Agency will acknowledge and accept these changes by signing this amendment.
