Footnote:

A) Samples are collected from the storm water collection tank located within the site to prevent contamination from storm water run-off.
B) Our concentration limit of 10mg/L (Milligrams/Litre) is set by the EPA Licence.
C) We collect 3 separate samples from Point 1 to ensure consistency of data.
D) The analysis on the samples is conducted by an independent NATA approved Laboratory.
E) The concentration limits set by the EPA can be interpreted as having about one fifth of a teaspoon of sugar dissolved in a bathtub full of water.
F) The required monitoring frequency is based on rain events
