Answer 1

True:
- They should always include the location where the test was performed.
- They should be dated by the technician.

False:
- They should never be altered. (Corrections are allowed but must be done properly — single line through the error, initialed, dated, and reason noted.)
- They should always be written using a pencil. (Use permanent ink so entries are durable and tamper-evident.)
