Introduction. Execution of the US
33、ACE Chemical Data Quality Management (CDQM) program for HTRW contamination requires the interface and coordination of several Corps personnel. Procedures and responsibilities for USACE staff performing government CDQM activities are defined and detailed in this Chapter. The USACE project manager (PM
34、) is responsible for initiating and coordinating the defined CDQM activities. 1-2, Goals of the CDOM Program. The goals of the USACE CDQM program are to: 1) generate data of acceptable quality for the intended use; 2) satis the needs of the customer and the regulators; 3) generate sufficient data of
35、 known quality on the first attempt; and 4) provide an historical record for potential future use. When CDQM is used properly, the PM can readily measure the success of the team in meeting the project-specific DQOs. The USACE CDQM program consists of activities presented in ER 11 10-1-263, CDQM for
36、Hazardous Toxic and Radioactive Waste Remedial Activities, Engineer Manual (EM) 200-1-1, Validation of Analytical Chemistry Laboratories, EM 200-1-2, Technical Project Planning Guidance for HTRW Data Quality Design, and EM 200-1-3, Requirements for the Preparation of Sampling and Analysis Plans (SAP
37、S). 1-3. Technical Project Plannins. Each district is responsible for assessment of chemical data quality, including determination of data useability and DQO attainment. The district project chemist is a critical team member for this effort, and must be involved in preparation and review of project
38、documents including scopes of work, SAPS, contract specifications, and final chemical data reports. The district project chemist must be involved at each step of an HTRW project, so that adequate data quality is maintained. The TPP process for design of DQOs is described in EM 200- 1-2. 1-4. CDOM Ac
39、tivities. All HTRW projects require a comprehensive and multifaceted approach to QC and QA in order to achieve and document attainment of appropriate quality for the intended data usage. The district project chemist is the focal point to ensure that chemical data meet DQOs for each HTRW project. The
40、 district project chemist has several techniques to monitor and ensure the quality of chemical data. The district project chemist in conjunction with other members of the TPP team determine the appropriate level of compliance monitoring as discussed in ER 11 10-1-263, Appendix A. This determination
41、should be based upon the intended use of the data and the degree of confidence needed in the quality of the data. Compliance monitog may consist of a combination of activities. Described below are twelve (12) activities that may be applied on a project-specific basis to assist in generating data of
42、known quality. The twelve CDQM activities, their relative cost, and typical use are summarized in Table 1-1. 1-1 Licensed by Information Handling Servicesm 3535789 0737033 997 m EM 200-1-6 10 Oct 97 a. Validation of Primary and QA Laboratories. In general, commercial and government laboratories that
43、 support the USACE HTRW program should obtain a USACE laboratory validation prior to field studies or sample analysis. The QA laboratory is defined as the Chemistry and Materials Quality Assurance Laboratory (CMQAL), located in Omaha, Nebraska or a subcontracted agent that is responsible for analysi
44、s of the project QA samples. For some data uses, other programs (i.e., State Fuel Storage Tank Program, MLA, Navy and Air Force Installation Restoration Program (IRP) Audits) can be utilized. Projects should not be implemented without utilization of information fiom some accreditation authority. Val
45、idation should be maintained throughout the duration of the project. The USACE laboratory validation program is project specific. The validation is a parameter, method, and matrix-specific approval. For each new contract or delivery order awarded during the validation period, a project-specific requ
46、est for validation should be sent to CENWO-HX-C (Corps of Engineers, Northwestern Division, Missouri River Region, HTRW-Center of Expertise, Chemical Data Quality Management Branch) for verification of laboratory status regardless of their expiration date on the list of validated laboratories. The p
47、rimary objectives of the USACE laboratory validation program are to communicate to analytical service providers the USACE QC/QA requirements, ver the laboratories are performing specified analytical methods, and to ensure these laboratories meet the USACE requirements prior to sample analysis. Labor
48、atory validations are performed under the administration of the HTRW-CX applying guidance outlined in EM 200- 1 - 1. The USACE validation program is primarily based on SW-846 methods. The first step of the validation program is a paper review of the laboratorys capabilities to ensure that the propos
49、ed laboratory has the facility, equipment and personnel to meet the project required analyses. The laboratory must demonstrate capabilities by providing acceptable standard operating procedures (SOP) and successfully analyzing project required performance evaluation (PE) samples. The final step of the validation program is an on-site inspection of the laboratorys facility. Validation can be terminated at any step of the process due to inadequate laboratory documentation performance and/or execution. No notice or short notice on-site audits of facilities listed as
