hence selecting the correct code is generally straightforward However, some valid values are also used to link data properly (e.g., QCCODE is used to help link a laboratory replicate [“LR1”] to its original field sample [“CS”]) This Data Dictionary provides lists of the valid value codes and their definitions for each valid value field in the EDF New valid value codes can be requested Monday through Friday between 9:00 a.m and 6:00 p.m Pacific Standard Time through the office of ArsenaultLegg, Inc., by phone (907) 346-3827, fax (907) 346-1577, or e-mail information@arsenaultlegg.com Please allow 72 hours for code generation EDF 1.2b Data Dictionary Rev 0, 01/05/2001 Summary of Data Elements Field Name In Table(s) Attrb Null Allowed VVL Descr Name Definition Guidelines & Restrictions Analysis Date The date the sample (aliquot, extract, digest and/or leachate) is analyzed Must be in the format YYYYMMDD Must be later than or equal to EXTDATE, RECDATE, LOGDATE, and earlier than or equal to REP_DATE Analytical Method The code identifying the method of analysis Must contain a valid value Approved By The initials of the individual approving the laboratory report No entry for laboratory-generated QC and non-client samples ANADATE TEST RESULTS D8 ANMCODE TEST RESULTS QC CL C7 APPRVD TEST C3 BASIS TEST C1 x Basis The code used to distinguish whether a sample is reported as dry or wet weight, filtered or not filtered Must contain a valid value Valid values for soil samples are "W" or "D" or leachate codes;

percent moisture determinations have been performed on a sample, (i.e., one determination for each analytical method), report the percent moisture results (PARLABEL and PARVAL) within the analytical
