All records were well organized and made available upon request. Facility was not certified for pH or chlorine field parameters. Facility is working with Lab Certification to obtain the necessary certifications. pH calibration records appeared complete. Please ensure that a daily check standard is analyzed. Commercial lab reports were compared to reported values on DMR's for the months of November and December 2017, and January and February 2018. Aluminum results were reported on the DMR in the wrong units for December 5, 2017. Please submit an ammended DMR with the correct information.
