a) Where the results of sampling for antimony, arsenic, asbestos, barium, beryllium, cadmium, chromium, cyanide, fluoride, mercury, nickel, selenium, or thallium indicate a level in excess of the MCL, the supplier must collect one additional sample as soon as possible after the initial sample was taken (but not to exceed two weeks) at the same sampling point.
