Abstract
The memorandum discusses the process used to calculate the PQLs for lead and copper. The PQLs for lead and copper have been calculated from the detection limits listed in Table 1 and from the results of Performance Evaluations (PE) studies. The data from Water Supply PE studies No. 12-17 and the low lead concentration sample from Water Pollution PE study No. 11 have been used to calculate the PQL for lead. The data from Water Pollution studies No. 12-16 have been used to calculate the PQL for copper, since copper was not included in Water Supply studies until very recently.
