Gelman Sciences, Inc. d/b/a Pall Life Sciences (PLS) attests to the validity of the laboratory Ann
Arbor, Michigan Environmental Laboratory facilities reported herein. All analyses performed Environmental
Laboratory facilities were done using established laboratory SOPs that incorporate QA/QC the
application methods. PLS's Environmental group has reviewed the data for compliance plan,
and data have been found to be compliant with laboratory protocols unless otherwise below.

otherwise detailed in the individual sections below.
RECEIPT/ STORAGE
The samples were received on the days noted in the report for the Month; the samples properly
preserved and on ice when necessary. Samples that require 1,4-dioxane analysis are
preserved vials to a pH of ≤2, except for the Pall ozone treatment samples. These samples when
mixed with the HCI acid, cause interferences and trap damage. Every attempt is made 24
hours of receipt.
Samples that require Bromate analysis are collected and preserved in the laboratory and
refrigerated.

The barium sample was taken as a composite sample, preserved with nitric acid, and refrigerated before and after being
sent to Ann Arbor Technical Services (ATS) for analysis. This sample is preserved with nitric acid and refrigeration.
Samples that are delivered to the laboratory the same day as they are collected are likely not to have reached a fully chilled
temperature. This is acceptable as long as there is evidence that chilling has begun. All samples are iced or refrigerated
at 4°C (±2°C) from the time of collection until sample preparation or analysis.
1,4-Dioxane (GC-MS)
All ground water and treated water samples were analyzed for 1,4-Dioxane (GC-MS) in accordance with EPA 1624C,
which has been modified to enhance detection limits. Samples that were diluted to bring them within the calibrated range of
the instrument are noted with a "D" under the Qualifier Code section of the data report. Reporting limits were adjusted
based on each dilution.
Reporting limit for undiluted samples is 1ppb (part per billion, micrograms per liter, μg/L). All quality control parameters
were within the acceptance limits for reported samples unless indicated.

Bromate (Ion Chromatography)
All surface water and treated samples were analyzed for Bromate (Ion Chromatography) in accordance with EPA 300.1.
Surrogates are added to all samples. All quality control parameters were within the acceptance limits^ with^ the^ balance^ of
sample analyzed.
The reporting limit for treated samples is 5.0ppb and for surface samples is 2.0ppb.
Barium
A composite Outfall001 sample was sent to Ann Arbor Technical Services (ATS) for total barium analysis in accordance
with EPA 200.7. Barium samples are analyzed quarterly^ in^ compliance^ with^ PLS^ NPDES^ permit.^ This^ sample^ is^ preserved
with nitric acid and refrigeration. The results were less than the permitted level of 440μg/L at 250μg/L.
Qualifiers
1,4-Dioxane Qualifier Codes:
Qualifier Code Description nd: The compound was analyzed for, but not detected at or above the detection limit indicated. D: Analyte value quantified from a dilution, reporting limit is raised to reflect dilution. E: The compound result is greater than the upper^ quantitation^ limit^ in^ the^ associated^ calibration^ curve,^ reported^ as^ estimate. B: The sample vials contained air bubbles larger than 5mm, which may affect compound results. J: The compound was positively identified; the associated numerical value is the approximate concentration. M: Matrix effects, sample required dilution. R: The reported value is unusable and rejected due to variance from quality control criteria. V: The reported value is considered estimated due to variance from quality control criteria. H: Sample was analyzed past 14 day hold time, but within 45 days. 0: Samples analyzed in outside laboratory. S: Samples split with DEQ.
Bromate Qualifier Codes:
Qualifier Code Description nd: The compound was analyzed for, but was not detected at or above the detection limit indicated. E: The compound result is greater than the upper quantitation limit^ in^ the^ associated^ calibration^ curve. J: The^ compound^ was^ positively^ identified;^ the^ associated^ numerical^ value is^ the^ approximate^ concentration. R: The reported value is unusable and rejected due to variance from quality control criteria. V: The reported value is considered estimated due to variance from quality control criteria. H: Sample was analyzed past 28 day hold time
