1 Analytical Approved for Compliance Monitoring under the Ground Water Rule Analysis for the following contaminants shall be conducted in accordance with the methods in the following table or their equivalent as determined by. The methods and monitoring requirements for these contaminants are specified in 40 CFR and Additional methods are listed in Appendix A to Subpart C of Part 141. The CFR is the legal reference for approved methods and takes precedent over this table. The table should accurately reflect the analytical methods information published in 40 CFR 141. If you find discrepancies, please notify The Safe Drinking Water Hotline ( ) so that can correct the table. Microbial Contaminants Escherichia coli The time from sample collection to initiation of analysis may not exceed 30 hours. The ground water system is encouraged but is not required to hold samples below 10 C during transit. A standard sample volume of at least 100 ml must be collected for fecal indicator analysis regardless of the fecal indicator or analytical method used Total Coliforms and Escherichia coli (E. coli) in Water by Membrane Filtration by Using a Simultaneous Detection Technique (MI Medium) 9221 F for the Examination 9222 G for the Examination September R This method incorporates MI agar into Method 9222 as described for the analysis of Total Coliforms in the Total Coliform Rule [141.21(f)] EC-MUG (Method 9221 F) or NA-MUG (Method 9222 G) can be used for E. coli testing step as described in (f)(6)(i) or (iii) after use of 9221 B, 9221 D, 9222 B, or 9222 C EC-MUG (Method 9221 F) or NA-MUG (Method 9222 G) can be used for E. coli testing step as described in (f)(6)(i) or (iii) after use of 9221 B, 9221 D, 9222 B, or 9222 C for the Examination 9223 for the Examination 1998 Colilert, Colisure, and Colilert-18 media are approved for use Colilert, Colisure, and Colilert-18 media are approved for use.
