    • The average concentration of insoluble uranium for the 6-month period was 13.2 ppb.

These constituents are analyzed chemically via Inductively Coupled Plasma/Mass Spectroscopy (ICP/MS) as opposed to radiation counting. Laboratory detection limits for uranium and Tc-99 are generally 1 ppb and 5 ppt, respectively
