Common use of LIMITS OF ERROR, AND PENALTIES RELATED THERETO Clause in Contracts

LIMITS OF ERROR, AND PENALTIES RELATED THERETO. Limits of error for the common dissolved constituents in aqueous samples are defined in the following schedule, which shall apply to the determination of satisfactory accuracy or precision in analyses for these components: Constituent Allowable Error Calcium 5% or 1.5 mg/1, whichever is greater Magnesium 6% or 1.5 mg/1, whichever is greater Sodium 5% or 2.0 mg/1, whichever is greater Potassium 5% or 1.0 mg/1, whichever is greater Chloride 5% or 1.0 mg/1, whichever is greater Sulfate 5% or 1.0 mg/1, whichever is greater Fluoride 10% or 0.1 mg/1, whichever is greater Boron 5% or 0.2 mg/1, whichever is greater Silica 10% or 2.0 mg/1, whichever is greater Nitrate + Nitrite as NO3 10% or 1.0 mg/l whichever is greater Total Phosphorus as PO4 20% or 0.20 mg/l whichever is greater Orthophosphate as P 20% or 0.20 mg/l whichever is greater Ammonia Nitrogen 20% or 0.20 mg/l whichever is greater Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen 20% or 0.20 mg/l whichever is greater Ag, As, Be, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Mn, Ni, Xx, Xx, Xx, Xx, Xx +25% for concentrations greater than or equal to 5X RDL (See Section 5) MBAS 25% for concentrations greater than or equal to 0.5 mg/l Organophosphorus Pesticides Concentrations cannot be beyond certified QC performance limits as provided by the reference material vendor SemiVolatile Organic Carbon and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons Concentrations cannot be beyond certified QC performance limits as provided by the reference material vendor Oil & Grease Concentrations cannot be beyond certified Constituent Allowable Error QC performance limits as provided by the reference material vendor Ion Balance (Gen. Mineral) 0.5 milli-equivalents per liter or 5% whichever is greater
