Inspection Samples

The Inspection Samples tab on the Evaluation Details page allows inspectors to create and review the sampling locations and results associated with an inspection.

Samples Tab

Samples and results are created automatically when the inspection is created for a permitted facility with discharge monitoring report (DMR) requirements. They can also be added manually for a permitted inspection without DMR requirements.

Create Samples and Sample Results Automatically

Upon creation of an inspection for a permitted facility with DMR requirements, the Samples tab displays sampling locations for each permitted feature and monitoring point associated with the permit.

Results rows are generated for each parameter associated with each permitted feature and monitoring point. Additional samples and sample results can be added as needed.
