Clean Water Quality Data for NPDES Reasonable Potential Analyses
Compute AML
Compute MDL
Compute Wasteload Allocation
Sum detected and non-detect concentrations.
Find the adjusted coefficient of variation
Find the Maximum Observed Effluent Concentration (MEC)
Combine values for a composite parameter
Merge together observed concentrations and detection limits
Find the projected Maximum Observed Effluent Concentration (MEC)
Functions for cleaning and summarising water quality data for use in National Pollutant Discharge Elimination Service (NPDES) permit reasonable potential analyses and water quality-based effluent limitation calculations. Procedures are based on those contained in the "Technical Support Document for Water Quality-based Toxics Control", United States Environmental Protection Agency (1991).
