Post-monitoring checklist (for Advanced)
I have checked that all of my results and units are correct
I have rinsed my sampling containers and equipment 3 times with tap water
For nutrient tests, I have selected the lower result when difficult to determine between 2 colours on the comparitor
When the result was within the 'poor' range, I have repeated the test another 2 times to determine the mode
I have filed the paper results sheet for future reference
