Count Notes:

  ?
  Comments: Row 1 x 109, y 3, y 17. Only 119 valves counted in 1 hour of analysis. A full count would not be reached by time limit. Sample is full of large sediment particled, partially dissolved and broken valves. Continued count Row 2 x 107, y 17, y 2, Row 3 x 106, y 2, y 17, Row 4 x 105, y 17, y 2, Row 5 x 104, y 2, y 17, Row 6 x 103, y 17, y 2. Sparse sample, only 505 valves counted. It would probably take another 45 minutes to complete the count up to 600 valves.
