Doug:
I haven't seen any official guidelines for APC, typically I've seen enterobacter, listeria, or salmonella used as indicators for environmental swabs. ACP won't tell you too much, I think, because bacteria are everywhere - naturally. Choose a relevant indicator organism, would be my recommendation.
