Notes

The
design
value
"
status"
columns
(
for
2001­
3
and
2002­
4)
also
take
into
account
data
substitution
tests
to
show
that
a
site
has
complete
data.

For
example,
if
during
a
particular
quarter,
a
site
has
2
samples
less
than
the
number
needed
to
have
75%
data
capture,
one
approach
provides
for
the
substitution
of
the
maximum
quarterly
value
for
the
two
missing
samples.
If
the
design
value
is
below
the
level
of
the
standard
after
substituting
these
higher
values,
then
the
site
can
be
deemed
to
have
complete
data
and
be
in
attainment.

The
codes
used
in
the
design
value
status
columns
are:

NA'
=
complete,
violates
NAAQS;

'
A'
=
complete,
meets
NAAQS;

'
na'
=
incomplete,
partial
DV
exceeds
NAAQS;

'
a'=
incomplete,
partial
DV
meets
NAAQS,

'
x'
=
microscale
/
source
oriented,
not
compared
to
annual
NAAQS
2.
Data
completeness:
a
site
is
complete
for
purposes
of
showing
"
attainment"
if
valid
samples
are
obtained
for
75%
of
the
scheduled
sampling
days
each
quarter
for
a
three­
year
period;
