(2) Compliance with the MCLs in table 1 of this rule shall be determined based on the
analytical results obtained at each sampling point. If 1 sampling point is in violation of an
MCL, then the supply is in violation of the MCL. All of the following provisions apply:
(a) For supplies monitoring more than once per year, compliance with the MCL is
determined by a running annual average at each sampling point.
(b) Supplies monitoring annually or less frequently whose sample results exceed the
regulatory detection level as defined in R 325.10605 shall begin quarterly sampling.
Compliance with the MCL shall be based on the running annual average. For the purpose
of calculating the running annual average, the initial exceedance shall be the result for the
first quarter. If the department requires a confirmation sample under R 325.10717(12), then
the average of the initial exceedance and the confirmation sample shall be the result for the
first quarter. The supply shall not be in violation of the MCL until it has completed 1 year
of quarterly sampling.
(c) If any sample result causes the running annual average to exceed the MCL at any
sampling point, then the supply is out of compliance with the MCL immediately.
(d) If a supply fails to collect the required number of samples, then compliance shall be
based on the total number of samples collected.
(e) If a sample result is less than the detection limit, then zero shall be used to calculate
the annual average.
