Enclosed are the analytical results for sample(s) submitted to ACZ Laboratories, Inc. (ACZ) on February 06, 2020. This project has been assigned to ACZ's project number, L57286. Please reference this number in all future inquiries.
All analyses were performed according to ACZ's Quality Assurance Plan. The enclosed results relate only to the samples received under L57286. Each section of this report has been reviewed and approved by the appropriate Laboratory Supervisor, or a qualified substitute.
Except as noted, the test results for the methods and parameters listed on ACZ's current NELAC certificate letter (#ACZ) meet all requirements of NELAC.
This report shall be used or copied only in its entirety. ACZ is not responsible for the consequences arising from the use of a partial report.
All samples and sub-samples associated with this project will be disposed of after March 29, 2020. If the samples are determined to be hazardous, additional charges apply for disposal (typically $11/sample). If you would like the samples to be held longer than ACZ's stated policy or to be returned, please contact your Project Manager or Customer Service Representative for further details and associated costs. ACZ retains analytical raw data reports for ten years.

cc: Clark Short, Angela Persico
Kent Applegate:
Enclosed are the analytical results for sample(s) submitted to ACZ Laboratories, Inc. (ACZ) on February 15, 2020. This project has been assigned to ACZ's project number, L57461. Please reference this number in all future inquiries.
All analyses were performed according to ACZ's Quality Assurance Plan. The enclosed results relate only to the samples received under L57461. Each section of this report has been reviewed and approved by the appropriate Laboratory Supervisor, or a qualified substitute.
Except as noted, the test results for the methods and parameters listed on ACZ's current NELAC certificate letter (#ACZ) meet all requirements of NELAC.
This report shall be used or copied only in its entirety. ACZ is not responsible for the consequences arising from the use of a partial report.
All samples and sub-samples associated with this project will be disposed of after April 03, 2020. If the samples are determined to be hazardous, additional charges apply for disposal (typically $11/sample). If you would like the samples to be held longer than ACZ's stated policy or to be returned, please contact your Project Manager or Customer Service Representative for further details and associated costs. ACZ retains analytical raw data reports for ten years.
If you have any questions or other needs, please contact your Project Manager.

Enclosed are the analytical results for sample(s) submitted to ACZ Laboratories, Inc. (ACZ) on February 29, 2020. This project has been assigned to ACZ's project number, L57681. Please reference this number in all future inquiries.
All analyses were performed according to ACZ's Quality Assurance Plan. The enclosed results relate only to the samples received under L57681. Each section of this report has been reviewed and approved by the appropriate Laboratory Supervisor, or a qualified substitute.
Except as noted, the test results for the methods and parameters listed on ACZ's current NELAC certificate letter (#ACZ) meet all requirements of NELAC.
This report shall be used or copied only in its entirety. ACZ is not responsible for the consequences arising from the use of a partial report.
All samples and sub-samples associated with this project will be disposed of after April 10, 2020. If the samples are determined to be hazardous, additional charges apply for disposal (typically $11/sample). If you would like the samples to be held longer than ACZ's stated policy or to be returned, please contact your Project Manager or Customer Service Representative for further details and associated costs. ACZ retains analytical raw data reports for ten years.
If you have any questions or other needs, please contact your Project Manager.

Sample Receipt
Sample Analysis
Holding Times
Text10:ACZ Laboratories, Inc. (ACZ) received 10 groundwater samples from Rio Algom Mining Company on May 27, 2020. The samples were received in good condition. Upon receipt, the sample custodian removed the samples from the cooler, inspected the contents, and logged the samples into ACZ's computerized Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). The samples were assigned ACZ LIMS project number L59258. The custodian verified the sample information entered into the computer against the chain of custody (COC) forms and sample bottle labels.
Text10:These samples were analyzed for inorganic, radiochemistry parameters. The individual methods are referenced on both, the ACZ invoice and the analytical reports. The extended qualifier reports may contain footnotes qualifying specific elements due to QC failures. In addition the following has been noted with this specific project:
1. This project is a client requested re-analysis of several previously reported samples.
Text10:Any analyses not performed within EPA recommended holding times have been qualified with an "H" flag.
