Description A standard analytical test method (EPA Method 8082) is used to analyze polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) mixtures at contaminated site cleanups that are conducted under the Model Toxics Control Act and Sediment Management Standards rules. This memo provides regulatory interpretation and guidance about when it is appropriate to use an alternative analytical test method for such cleanups (EPA Method 1668).
