This document provides examples of how to calculate the 90th percentile for lead and copper levels from sampling results. It explains that the 90th percentile is determined by ordering the results from lowest to highest and either averaging the values at the 90% sample number or using the single highest result if fewer than 5 samples were collected. Comparing the 90th percentile to the action level determines if an exceedance has occurred.
