Almost
all work done by ODA is divided between measurement time,
involving one of the ODA spectrophotometric instruments,
and analysis time, not directly involving those instruments.
To incorporate the costs of obtaining and maintaining these
instruments, a higher rate is charged for measurement time.
As
of 4/01/2008, the rates are
