APPENDIX -- COMPANY REFERENCES NOTE: A suffix of "A" in the method number indicates revision one (the method has been revised once). A suffix of "B" in the method number indicates revision two (the method has been revised twice). A suffix of "C" in the method number indicates revision three (the method has been revised three times). In order to properly document the method used for analysis, the entire method number including the suffix letter designation (e.g., A, B, or C) must be identified by the analyst. A method reference found within the RCRA regulations and the text of SW-846 methods and chapters refers to the latest promulgated revision of the method, even though the method number does not include the appropriate letter suffix.
