                        2. Potential Acid Sulfate Soil (PASS) likelihood is indicated by Low (L & no shade)(∆ pH from pHF to pHFOX is < 2 pH units), Medium (M & yellow shade)(∆ pH from pHF to pHFOX is ≥ 2 pH units OR pHFOX is <3 ) and High (H & red shade)(∆ pH from pHF to pHFOX is ≥ 2 pH units aND pHFOX is <3)

                        4. The letter in the remark column indicates the presence of the following. O - Organic; S - Shells; Fe - Iron/Iron Oxide; P - Pyrite; and C - Coral.

                        5. Shaded TAA & SCR results are those exceeding the QASSIT action levels of 18 mol H+/t or 0.03 %S.

                        6. Acid-Base Account = Total Acidity (ie. Potential + Actual + Retained) - Total ANC, but not less than TSA
