Many sampling programs are built on a series of monitoring points with similar sampling requirements, plus several additional analytical packages added to a subset of the monitoring points. The By Interval tab is used to add these additional sampling requirements to an existing sampling program (To add analysis packages to all intervals of a program see the section Adding Analysis Packages to All Intervals of a Sampling Program). The form is shown below.
By Interval tab – Sampling Program form
This form is used to add/edit individual requirements of an interval.
1. Choose the program name from the Available Program box. This will populate the Available Intervals box with the intervals of that program.
2. Select an interval from the list of Available Intervals. The top right portion of the form will list all of the sampling requirements of that interval that were selected on the By Program tab. The lower half of the form shows the individual sampling requirements for the select program.
3. From the drop down lists under Individual Sampling Requirements select the required analytical package(s). Multiple packages can be assigned to a single program.
Note: The list of packages is generated from the Laboratories form (see the Laboratories section for more information). The Sampling Program form may need to be closed and re-opened to update the list of packages if changes to the laboratory packages have been made during the current working session.
4. For each selected package, click the required sampling frequency from the list and enter the start and end date of the requirement.
