"COELT" is the United States Army Corps of Engineers
					 Loading Tool program. It is a relational database application that is designed
					 to run with the Microsoft Windows operating system. COELT places laboratory
					 data into the standardized Electronic Deliverable Format (EDF). The program can
					 accept data from Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) or manually
					 entered data. COELT is an optional software application that is intended to
					 help laboratories that require new software to produce the EDF data
					 deliverable. COELT includes a report utility that allows hard copy laboratory
					 reports to be printed that match the actual electronic data. For purposes of
					 the requirements of this chapter, version 1.2a of COELT may be used. The
					 program (coelt12i.exe) and documents (coelt 1.2i manual.zip) for version 1.2i
					 of COELT are available through links provided at
http://www.swrcb.ca.gov/ust
.
"CSRS-H" is the California Spatial Reference
					 System-Horizontal, which includes the High Precision Geodetic Network (HPGN),
					 the High Precision Geodetic Network-Densification (HPGN-D) and other geodetic
					 control positions. These control positions have been determined by Global
					 Positioning System survey methods in accordance with first order or better
					 standards and specifications from the Federal Geodetic Control Subcommittee
					 (FGCS) of the Federal Geographic Data Committee. These control positions are
					 published by the National Geodetic Survey, California Spatial Reference Center
					 or its successor.
"EDCC" is the Electronic Deliverable Consistency Checker
					 program, which was developed for the EDF1.2i format, described below. The EDCC
					 program is run upon completion of an EDF report and produces an error report.
					 This error report identifies problems within the given data set based upon the
					 EDF database structure, guidelines, restrictions, and valid values. The error
					 report also indicates the nature of each problem, so that the submitter can
					 correct them. For purposes of the requirements of this chapter, the interactive
					 web-version 1.2i or personal computer version 1.2i of EDCC shall be used.
					 Programs (edcc.zip and edccservicepac1.zip) for version 1.2i of EDCC are
					 available through links provided at
http://www.swrcb.ca.gov/ust
.
"EDF" is the Electronic Deliverable Format, originally
					 developed for the United States Army Corps of Engineers. It is a data standard
					 designed to facilitate transfer of electronic data files from analytical
					 laboratories to end-users. It is a relational database whose files are related
					 to one another through key fields. Laboratories can produce electronic EDF
					 files by using their own LIMS or COELT software. The data components include
					 chain-of custody information, laboratory results, and quality assurance
					 information. For purposes of the requirements of this chapter, version 1.2i of
					 EDF shall be used. Specifications for version 1.2i of EDF (The Electronic
					 Deliverable Format [EDF] Version 1.2i data dictionary are available in Title
					 27, Division 3, Subdivision
					 2, Chapter 1 (Laboratory Results)
					 California Code of Regulations, through links provided at
http://www.swrcb.ca.gov/ust
.
"Geotracker" is the State Board's Internet-accessible
					 database system used by the State Board, regional boards, and local agencies to
					 track and archive compliance data from authorized or unauthorized discharges of
					 waste to land, or unauthorized releases of hazardous substances from
					 underground storage tanks. This system consists of a relational database,
					 on-line compliance reporting features, a geographical information system (GIS)
					 interface and other features that are utilized by the State Board, regional
					 boards, local agencies, regulated industry and the public to input, manage, or
					 access compliance and regulatory tracking data. Geotracker, initially known as
					 the Geographical Environmental Information Management System (GEIMS) database,
					 is available at http://geotracker.swrcb.ca.gov/.
"PDF" means Portable Document Format. "PDF" files are
					 self-contained and cross-platform documents. A PDF file will look the same on
					 the screen and in print, regardless of what type of computer or printer a
					 person uses or which software package originally created the file. Although PDF
					 files contain the complete formatting of the original document, including fonts
					 and images, they are highly compressed, allowing efficient transfer of complex
					 information.
"Permanent monitoring well" means any artificial excavation
					 by any method made for the purpose of monitoring fluctuations in groundwater
					 levels, the quality of groundwater, or the concentration of contaminants in
					 groundwater and which is used for at least thirty days.
"Report" means any document or item that is required for
					 submittal in order for a person to comply with a regulation, directive, or
					 order issued by the State Board, a regional board, or a local agency, including
					 but not limited to, any analysis of material by a laboratory that has
					 accreditation or certification pursuant to Article 3 (commencing with Section
					 100825) of Chapter 4 of Part 1 of
					 Division 101 of the Health and Safety Code.
