Parameter List for PCBs and Pesticides Table 

The PCBs AND PESTICIDES TABLE contains information about the sample,  analytical methods, and measured values for major polychlorinated biphenyls and pesticides.   The fields are organized by subcategory.  Detailed definitions are provided in the data dictionary. Each of the PCBs and pesticides has its own qualifier and, when needed, detection limit column; however, they are not all listed here.
