After the DWQI submitted this report to the Commissioner of the NJDEP, the DWQI was informed of new USEPA information on analytical method 515.3 that requires re-evaluation of the use of this analytical method for the analysis of DCPA (Dacthal) and degradates. The recommended MCL for DCPA (Dacthal) and degradates is on hold until the DWQI's Testing Subcommittee and Health Effects Subcommittee complete their re-evaluations.
