Continued issue of waste water from campers entering the river

The system doesn't like the 6,760 value for EC nor the 0.14 for Phosphorous ? - maybe you can check and get back to me if i have entered it incorrectly? 

With regards, the QA results maybe we can arrange a visit for training  - with known values that we can get feedback on immediately .
