What is a Data Element ? SDC-0055-057-JE-8019
2.0 SAMPLING and ANALYSIS Sampling of biota, soil, and water was conducted in the states of South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Virginia, Maryland, Ohio, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Florida and Delaware. This effort was to identify and analyze the biological and chemical data values to be included in the National Site Report. The chemical data identified in the table below will be used to determine the environmental impacts. Report
