The full complement of modified sampling boxes was not ready until the fourth terminal visit.

Delivery of the sampling equipment in Phoenix was delayed until Wednesday of the sampling week.

Some hydrocarbon samples were lost in Miami, Hagerstown, and Houston because of analytic problems caused by high water content in the samples caused by high humidity and heavy rain.
