CHEMICAL PARAMETERS

1 The parametric value refers to the residual monomer concentration in the water as calculated according to specifications of the maximum release from the corresponding polymer in contact with the water. This is controlled by product specification.
2 Where possible, without compromising disinfection, a water undertaker (in relation to a supply of water for human consumption purposes) must strive for a lower value.
3 See also regulation 8(5).
4 See also regulation 5(3)(d).
5 See the definition of “pesticides and related products” in regulation 2.
6 The parametric value applies to each individual. “other pesticide” means a pesticide other than aldrin, dieldrin, heptachlor and heptachlor epoxide.

(4) The monitoring programme may be based on a risk assessment as set out in regulation 30.

(5) When choosing appropriate parameters and other micro-organisms, parasites or substances for monitoring programmes, local conditions for each water supply system must be taken into consideration.

TABLE 3

Annual Sampling Frequencies: Treatment Works or Supply Points

Sampling is at treatment works for the substances and parameters shown in column (1) of the Table as items (1) to (6) and at supply points for the other substances and parameters, except nitrite subject to notes 2 and 3 to the Table below. This table sets out the annual sampling frequencies for all the substances and parameters in column 2 at treatment works or supply points. The frequencies are determined according to the volume of water supplied at each treatment works or supply point (column 3).

1 The water undertaker may use the number of inhabitants in a supply zone instead of the volume of water to determine the minimum frequency, assuming a water consumption of 200 l/day/capita.
2 The volumes are calculated as averages taken over a calendar year.
3 Sampling at treatment works when chloramination is practised.
4 Sampling at treatment works when chloramination is not practised.

The performance criterion for measurement uncertainty (k = 2) is the percentage of the parametric value stated in the table or better. Measurement uncertainty must be estimated at the level of the parametric value, unless otherwise specified.
3 If the value of uncertainty of measurement cannot be met, the best available technique should be selected (up to 60%).
4 The method determines total cyanide in all forms.
5 Values for trueness, precision and uncertainty of measurement are expressed in pH units.
6 Reference method EN ISO 8467.

TABLE C

Minimum performance characteristics: trueness, precision and limit of detection- may be used until 31 December 2019

1 Acrylamide, epichlorohydrin and vinyl chloride to be controlled by product specification.
2 Trueness is a measure of systematic error, i.e. the difference between the mean value of the large number of repeated measurements and the true value. Further specifications are those set out in ISO 5725.
3 Precision is a measure of random error and is usually expressed as the standard deviation (within and between batches) of the spread of results from the mean. Acceptable precision is twice the relative standard deviation. This term is further specified in ISO 5725.
4 Limit of detection is either three times the standard deviation within a batch of a natural sample containing a low concentration of the parameter; or five times the standard deviation of a blank sample (within a batch).
5 The method determines total cyanide in all forms.
6 Values for trueness, precision and uncertainty of measurement are expressed in pH units.
7 Reference method EN ISO 8467 1995.
8 The performance characteristics for individual pesticides are given as an indication. Values for the uncertainty of measurement as low as 30% can be achieved for several pesticides, higher values up to 80% may be allowed for a number of pesticides

Regulation 8

SCHEDULE 5 N.I. MONITORING FOR INDIVIDUAL RADIONUCLIDES

1.  A water undertaker may use a screening strategy for gross alpha and gross beta to monitor for the parametric indicator value for indicative dose M1 . The recommended screening value for gross alpha is 0.1Bq/l and for gross beta is 1.0Bq/l. N.I.

If the gross alpha activity exceeds 0.1Bq/l or the gross beta activity exceeds 1.0Bq/l, analysis for specific radionuclides is required.

The radionuclides to be measured must be based on all relevant information about likely sources of radioactivity.

Marginal Citations

M1 Where appropriate gross beta activity may be replaced by residual beta activity after subtraction of the K-40 activity concentration.

2.  Calculation of the ID N.I.

The ID must be calculated from the measured radionuclide concentrations and the dose coefficients [F1 referred to as “standard values and relationships” in Article 13, and recommended for the estimation of doses from internal exposure in the definition of “standard values and relationships” in Article 4(96), of the Council Directive 2013/59/Euratom laying down basic safety standards for the protection against the dangers arising from exposure to ionising radiation] or more recent information recognised by the Department, on the basis of the annual intake of water (730l for adults). Where the following formula is satisfied, it can be assumed that the ID is less than the parametric value if 0.1mSv and no further investigation is required.

where

C_i(obs) = observed concentration of radionuclide i

C_i(der) = derived concentration of radionuclide i (see Table 1)

n – number of radionuclides detected.

TABLE 1

Derived concentration for radioactivity in water intended for human consumption¹

1 This table includes value for the most common natural and artificial radionuclides; these are precise values, calculated for a dose of 0.1mSV, an annual intake of 730 litres and using the dose coefficients [F2 referred to as “standard values and relationships” in Article 13, and recommended for the estimation of doses from internal exposure in the definition of “standard values and relationships” in Article 4(96), of the Council Directive 2013/59/Euratom laying down basic safety standards for the protection against the dangers arising from exposure to ionising radiation] ; derived concentration for other radionuclides can be calculated on the same basis, and values can be updated on the basis of more recent information recognised by the competent authorities.
2 Where appropriate gross beta activity may be replaced by residual beta activity after subtraction of the K-40 concentration.

3.  Performance characteristics and method of analysis. N.I.

For the following parameters and radionuclides, the method of analysis used must, as a minimum be capable of measuring activity concentrations with a limit of detection specified in Table 2 below:

TABLE 2

1 The limit of detection must be calculated according to the ISO standard 11929: Determination of the characteristic limits (decision threshold, detection limit, and limits of confidence interval) for measurements of ionising radiation– Fundamentals and application, with probabilities of error of 1st and 2nd kind of 0.05 each.
2 Measurement uncertainties must be calculated and reported as complete standard uncertainties or as expanded uncertainties with an expansion factor of 1.96 according the ISO Guide for the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement.
3 The limit of detection for tritium and for radon is 10% of its parametric value of 100 Bq/l.
4 The limit of detection for gross alpha activity and gross beta activities are 40% of the screening values of 0.1 and 1.0 Bq/l respectively.
5 This limit of detection applies only to initial screening for ID for a new water source, if initial checking indicates that is not plausible that Ra-228 exceeds 20% of the derived concentration, the limit of detection may be increased to 0.8 Bq/l for routine Ra-228 nuclide specific measurements until a subsequent re-check is required.
