C. If an approved method is not available for a particular parameter, or a method or method alteration that is not an approved method is required or authorized to be used for a particular parameter by the EPA, ADEQ, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or 9 A.A.C. 8, a licensee or a person exempt under R9-14-602(4) or (5) may request approval of an alternate method or method alteration by submitting to the Department:
1. For an alternate method or method alteration required or authorized by the EPA, ADEQ, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or 9 A.A.C. 8, the following information:
a. The name, address, and telephone number of the licensee or person exempt under R9-14-602(4) or (5) submitting the request;
b. The name, address, and telephone number of the laboratory for which approval of the alternate method or method alteration is requested;
c. Identification of the parameter for which approval of the alternate method or method alteration is requested; and
d. Reference to the EPA, ADEQ, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or 9 A.A.C. 8 requirement or authorization for the use of the alternate method or method alteration for which approval is requested;
2. For an alternate method or method alteration to be used because an approved method is not available for a particular parameter, the following information:
a. The name, address, and telephone number of the licensee or person exempt under R9-14-602(4) or (5) submitting the request;
b. The name, address, and telephone number of the laboratory for which approval of the alternate method or method alteration is requested;
c. Identification of the parameter for which approval of the alternate method or method alteration is requested; and
d. Written justification for using the alternate method or method alteration for which approval is requested, including the following:
i. A detailed description of the alternate method or method alteration;
ii. References to published or other studies confirming the general applicability of the alternate method or method alteration to the parameter for which its use is intended;
iii. Reference to the EPA, ADEQ, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or 9 A.A.C. 8 requirement to test the parameter; and
iv. Data that demonstrate the performance of the alternate method or method alteration in terms of accuracy, precision, reliability, ruggedness, ease of use, and ability to achieve a detection limit appropriate for the proposed use of the alternate method or method alteration; and
3. An alternate method or method alteration approval fee of $50, payable to the Arizona Department of Health Services, in the form of a certified check, business check, money order, or credit card payment.
D. Before approving an alternate method or method alteration that is not required or authorized by the EPA, ADEQ, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or 9 A.A.C. 8, the Department may require that the alternate method or method alteration be performed by a laboratory designated by the Department to verify that, using the parameter for which its use is intended, the alternate method or method alteration produces data that comply with subsection (C)(2)(d)(iv).
E. The Department may approve an alternate method or method alteration if the Department determines:
1. One of the following:
a. Use of the alternate method or method alteration is required or authorized by the EPA, ADEQ, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or 9 A.A.C. 8; or
b. Use of the alternate method or method alteration is justified as described in subsection (C)(2)(d); and
2. If the alternate method or method alteration pertains to drinking water compliance testing, the EPA concurs that the alternate method or method alteration may be used.
F. The Department may rescind the approval of an alternate method or method alteration approved by the Department according to subsection (E), if, as applicable:
1. For an alternate method or method alteration requested under subsection (C)(1), the alternate method or method alteration is no longer required or authorized by the EPA, ADEQ, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or 9 A.A.C. 8; or
2. For an alternate method or method alteration requested under subsection (C)(2), an approved method becomes available for the particular parameter.
