Interpretation: Feature 35 (Periodic Water Quality Testing) Part 1 (Quarterly Testing) requires the project team to test for metals/metalloids on a quarterly basis. How should this testing be conducted?
Ruling: Testing procedures must follow the testing protocol outlined in the WELL Performance Verification Guidebook for Feature 31 (Inorganic Contaminants). If possible, sample points that have not been selected in the previous three quarters should be used.
