If soil samples are reported on a dry-weight basis, then all analytical results and detection limits should be captured on a dry-weight basis (BASIS D). Otherwise, capture the wet weight results and detection limits (BASIS W). When multiple percent moisture or solid determinations have been performed on a sample, capture these results within the analytical method to which they pertain. For example, moisture was determined for each aliquot of a sample subjected to (SW6010B, SW8260B, and SW8270C). In this case, enter the % moisture value for each aliquot, and the corresponding results data.
