Cal. Code Regs. Tit. 23, § 3891 - Definition of Terms
"COELT" is the United States Army Corps of Engineers Loading Tool program. It is a relational database application that is designed to run with the Microsoft Windows operating system. COELT places laboratory data into the standardized Electronic Deliverable Format (EDF). The program can accept data from Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) or manually entered data. COELT is an optional software application that is intended to help laboratories that require new software to produce the EDF data deliverable. COELT includes a report utility that allows hard copy laboratory reports to be printed that match the actual electronic data. For purposes of the requirements of this chapter, version 1.2a of COELT may be used. The program (coelt12i.exe) and documents (coelt 1.2i manual.zip) for version 1.2i of COELT are available through links provided at http://www.swrcb.ca.gov/ust.
"CSRS-H" is the California Spatial Reference System-Horizontal, which includes the High Precision Geodetic Network (HPGN), the High Precision Geodetic Network-Densification (HPGN-D) and other geodetic control positions. These control positions have been determined by Global Positioning System survey methods in accordance with first order or better standards and specifications from the Federal Geodetic Control Subcommittee (FGCS) of the Federal Geographic Data Committee. These control positions are published by the National Geodetic Survey, California Spatial Reference Center or its successor.
"EDCC" is the Electronic Deliverable Consistency Checker program, which was developed for the EDF1.2i format, described below. The EDCC program is run upon completion of an EDF report and produces an error report. This error report identifies problems within the given data set based upon the EDF database structure, guidelines, restrictions, and valid values. The error report also indicates the nature of each problem, so that the submitter can correct them. For purposes of the requirements of this chapter, the interactive web-version 1.2i or personal computer version 1.2i of EDCC shall be used. Programs (edcc.zip and edccservicepac1.zip) for version 1.2i of EDCC are available through links provided at http://www.swrcb.ca.gov/ust.
"EDF" is the Electronic Deliverable Format, originally developed for the United States Army Corps of Engineers. It is a data standard designed to facilitate transfer of electronic data files from analytical laboratories to end-users. It is a relational database whose files are related to one another through key fields. Laboratories can produce electronic EDF files by using their own LIMS or COELT software. The data components include chain-of custody information, laboratory results, and quality assurance information. For purposes of the requirements of this chapter, version 1.2i of EDF shall be used. Specifications for version 1.2i of EDF (The Electronic Deliverable Format [EDF] Version 1.2i data dictionary are available in Title 27, Division 3, Subdivision 2, Chapter 1 (Laboratory Results) California Code of Regulations, through links provided at http://www.swrcb.ca.gov/ust.
"Geotracker" is the State Board's Internet-accessible database system used by the State Board, regional boards, and local agencies to track and archive compliance data from authorized or unauthorized discharges of waste to land, or unauthorized releases of hazardous substances from underground storage tanks. This system consists of a relational database, on-line compliance reporting features, a geographical information system (GIS) interface and other features that are utilized by the State Board, regional boards, local agencies, regulated industry and the public to input, manage, or access compliance and regulatory tracking data. Geotracker, initially known as the Geographical Environmental Information Management System (GEIMS) database, is available at http://geotracker.swrcb.ca.gov/.
"PDF" means Portable Document Format. "PDF" files are self-contained and cross-platform documents. A PDF file will look the same on the screen and in print, regardless of what type of computer or printer a person uses or which software package originally created the file. Although PDF files contain the complete formatting of the original document, including fonts and images, they are highly compressed, allowing efficient transfer of complex information.
"Permanent monitoring well" means any artificial excavation by any method made for the purpose of monitoring fluctuations in groundwater levels, the quality of groundwater, or the concentration of contaminants in groundwater and which is used for at least thirty days.
"Report" means any document or item that is required for submittal in order for a person to comply with a regulation, directive, or order issued by the State Board, a regional board, or a local agency, including but not limited to, any analysis of material by a laboratory that has accreditation or certification pursuant to Article 3 (commencing with Section 100825) of Chapter 4 of Part 1 of Division 101 of the Health and Safety Code.
