Secondary Environmental Monitors
Secondary Environmental Monitors : Environmental monitoring equipment or activities which, if degraded, will produce a more than minor disruption of a monitoring program. An example of a minor effect would be the failure of a unit whose place in the program is effectively duplicated by overlap between one or more other components. An example of a more than minor effect would be the failure of sufficient units to preclude continued coverage, or the failure of a unit which provides the only coverage for large areas, such as a groundwater monitoring well.
