Analytical Methods Approved for Drinking Water Compliance Monitoring of Radionuclides Analysis for the following contaminants shall be conducted in accordance with the methods in the following table, or their equivalent as determined by EPA. The methods for these contaminants are specified in 40 CFR 141.25. Additional methods are listed in Appendix A to Subpart C of Part 141. Monitoring requirements for these contaminants are specified in 40 CFR 141.26. The CFR is the legal reference for approved methods and takes precedence over this table. The table should accurately reflect the analytical methods information published in 40 CFR 141. If discrepancies are found, please notify the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800- 426-4791) so that EPA can correct the table.
