Cerkification Agency as a"�isadvantaged Business ��terprise", and by various other states an� entities as a
"Waman-Owned Business".
We provide an array of e�vironmental chemistry and analytical support services to environmental
professiona[s within #[�e private and public sectors thraughout the United States. Serviees cover analykical
needs ranging firom compliance to assessment and remediation to siie clasure, including: Inorganic and
organic analyses; lead in paint, wipes and soils; analy�ical speciaf studies; micraf�iological ser�ices; and
e�vironmen#af matrices (liquid, soils, air, etc.).
Certes is cammitfed ta qua[ify contral and cus#omer service. We incorporate independent ser�ices to
provide certifed reference material and maintain internal "blind" quality assurance samples in liquid and solid
matrices. We were recently recognized for 97% accuracy on the mast recent WP on 126 analytes {national
a�erage was 91 %}; 100% demonstrated on reeent TX 1006 proficiencies; and 100% acc�racy for soil VOC,
SVOC and metals pro�ciencies (dane voluntarily by Certes)_ We utilize the American Standard Tesiing
Method (ASTM), the U.S. En�ironmental Protection Agency {EPA) methods and quality assuranc� �rotocols,
5tandard Methods for Wat�r and Wastewater, and fallow the EPA's quality assurance protocol to pro�ide

Yaur account receives �ersonal a#tention from a seninr merr�ber of our siaff wha is responsible for
managing each of your projects. This assignment ensures their ability to discuss all aspects of your projeci
from start io f+n9sh, including data interpretation.
CerEes has expanded its facilities to 13,000 sc{uare, increasing space for iis metals ar�d genera!
chemistry departments and ereating a new glassware wash facility. Upgrad�s include an enclosed positive-
pressure volati[es laboratary camp[etely isolated from the semi�olatils and extraction laboratories. T#�is
laboratory, in conjunction with the negatively pressured extraction and sample preparation laboratories, was
designed to reduce any chance of cross contamination.
Our capacity and our ability to m�et emergeney turnaround times has �een enhanced substanfially by
, the acc}uisition of instrumentation and the incarporation of autorr[atiar� in sample preparation and ana[ysis. In
the �rganic Laboratory, four (4) Gas Chromatagraph �GC) Purge & Trap for volatiles analysis; Six (6) Gas
ChromatographlMass Spectro�-neiers (GCIMS), three (3} dedieated to voEatiles, three (3} to semivolatiles, and
four (4} GCs wifh FfD for petroleum ar�alyses. Inorganics' recent acquisitions include a second Inductively
Coup[ed Plasma Spectrophatomer (IGP), two Hot Block Digestors and Mercury Analyzer, with autosampler,
' minivap distil�atian �or Cyanide, Phenols and Nitrogens.
All af the members afi our labaratory staff ha�e extensi�e education and technical training in their
fields, which account for o�er 95 years of eombined experience. Our philosophy is client servic�
satisfaction, and our commitment to perform outs#anding analytical services is acknowledged frorrt the Chief

9.3. Mobile Laboratary
OUR VISTON
XENCO Laboratories is proud to offer On-Site Laboratory Serviees (OLS} on the
Sautheastern region of the USA. Our goaIs are to quickly set up a fleet of three
Mobile Laboratories to serve tl�e state of Florida and its surrounding areas.
However, if a project is large enough, we will travel wherever it rnay be needed
depending on yaur specific needs. The first laboratory is now ready. We are
currer�tly developing analytical methodologies and instrum�nt configuraiions to
deliver a much larger throughput of analysis per hour. Same of these ineth�ods
could result on the delivery of as much as ten analyses per hour for several
parameters. All instrumentation is fully automated and completely integrated
wiihin our network.
Every Mobi�e Labaratary is ar wilI be NELAC Accredited for a specific set
of parameters. Big Ber�ha ar 101 is located in Tampa and equipped to de�iver
V4Cs (8260, 624 and/or 8021) by GGMS on a routir�e bas'rs. But the vehicle is
retrofitted to handle FL-PRO TPH, GRO, DRO, PAHs, and ICP or Graphite
furnace rnetals. If your prajeck goes beyond GC-MS V�Cs p��ase sc�edule it wiih
ample ti�na, at least 4 weeks.

3. The sarnples are logged 'mto the LIMS system and assigned a unique sample control number.
Analytical requirements %r each sample are entered into the computer. A hard copy oi the wor�
order a nd o ther i nformation i s p rinted and �led with the recei�ed documentation in ihe Sample
Control Center. A unique sample number is handwriiten on the sample in indelible marker and
secured to each sample container. Data sheets and work sheets are printed for each batch of
samples and distribu�ed to the appropriate laboratory managers. The work sheets list sample
infozmataon and analytical requixements.
4. The samples aze placed in the designated laboratory storage area.
5. The analyst retrieves the samples frvm the storage area. After analysis, the sample is stored until
the assigned iime or written permission is given to either properiy dispose of or return the sample to
the client.
6. Tf a sample requires additional work to be performed by a qualified outside laboratory, a chain of
custody fvrm is completed and submitted with a representative portion of khe sample. A copy of
this form is maintained on file, along wiih sirnilar informaiian located in a baund log book. The
chosen laboratory signs and dates the form upon receipt and returns it with its f nal report upan
completion of analysis.
7. At times, samples will deviate from a normal matrix (soil, water, sludge}. These may include, but
are not limited to, rags, foam and plastic. It will be the policy when t�is occurs for Iogin to bring it
irnmediately to the attention of th� laboratory manager or department head. The lab manager or
department head wiil aversee that the sample is run with appropriate considera�ion. It is
recommended that �ach of these samples b� spiked.
8. The following tables list the criteria used to confirm compliance with sample preservation,
container and haldin� tirne requirements. Minimum volume requirements for eaeh method ar.e alsa
included. These tables are consistent with the inforrnation prnvid�d in 40CFR 136.3 Table II
(1991) and with SW-846 Chapters 2 and 4(3rd edition, September 1986, with Update I, �uly 1992,

Analytical 1Vlethod�lagy
Certes Environmental Laborataries, L.L.C. uti�izes rnethods of analysis which provide evidence of
analyte iden�ification, separation fram interfering substances, limits of ineasurement apprapriate to that
of analyte concentration and reasonable measures of precision and accuracy for the data obtained.
Dep�nding on the analysis requested and the sample matrix, the rnethod employed may be an official,
standard or reference meihod such as tl�ose published by AOAC, ASTM, AOCS, or USDA, ar it may
be a screening methad or modified method such as Hach Corporation's EPA approved pracedures
developed from APHA Standard Methods. Analyses will be perfarmed in accordance with the
methods cit�d herein unless specific project requirements or needs dic�a.te adoption oi an alternate
method or some modification of the cited methods. There will be no de�iation from accep�ed methads
without natifying the clieni.
If analysis is perfarmed in an a.lternate manner, the methad wiil �e documented. Docwnentation is
dependent upon the specific instrumentation and d�ta coll�ction and reduction methads used within the
lab. Methods used directly from official ar standard pracedures are referenced as �uch. Quality
Ass��rance op�ratians are maintained in compliance with Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and
Texas Natural Resource Cons�rvation Commission (TNRCC) regulatians or recomm�nded practices.
Quality assessment samples are includ�d in the sarnple stream at frequencies :required by the various
�rotoco�s associated wifh the methods. Control limits are set at levels recommended by EPA quality
assurance conven�ions. Should control data indicate that an analytical process is out of cantrol, the
cause is investigated and corrected and the sample batch is re-extracted and/or re-analyzed. ,

Method Validatian
Method �alidation consists af studies performed by the persannel within the Iaboratory to document the
facility's competence and 5p6C1�LC analytical capabilities with a spacific methodolagy. Methad
validations are per%rmed whenever a new rnethod is introduced into the labaratory or whene�ver an
existing method undergoes a significant change. Examples of significant changes would include:
1, Additian of analytes to a multi-analyt� method,
2. Major instru�ment repair ar modifications such as replacement ar servrce of a detector.
3. Modification of any chramatagraphic variables affecting retention time and peak shape.
4. Modification of ICP instrument variables which rnight affect interelement interference
carr�ciion,
5. Installation af a chrornatographic coiumn with different characteristics than the original
column.
6. Modificaiion of the extraction, digestion ar clean-up procedures,
7. Modification ta the norm�l �olumes of sample, digestate, or extract used far analysis.
For organic methods (GC, GC/MS} and conventional chernistry paxameters, method �alidatians are
perfai-med at least once per year. For metais rnethads, Tnstrurnent Detection Limits (IDL's) and Linear
Range (LR} studies are conducted ance per year, or as needed, and new Interelement Correetian factors
(IECs) are deterznined at least once per year.
Data from ini�ial method validation studies is rnaintained in �'iles within the analytical depa.rtment.
Files also contain method references and SQPs aIong with any special information pertin�nt to the
validation procedure. Subsaquent validation studies are compared and mainiained alang with the initial

general procedures are described b�low.
Precision and �4ccuracy Studie�
C�rtes conducts h�vo types of precision and accuracy studies: I} for Tnitial Demonst�ation of
Proficiency for new analysts and first-iime new met�ods, and 2) monitoring o�-going ia� performance
by calculating in-house control limits. See the sectian on Contral Charting for calculating in-house
control limits.
Precision and Accuracy studies are used to document the t�ias and repeatability which can be expected
frorn a method. The procedure for performing a Precisian az�d Accuracy study is based upon the
qua�ity control guidelines cited in the variot�s EPA methods and involves the replicate analysis of at
least four "QC check samples". Statistical rasults from the check sample ana�yses, such as the a�erage
percent r ecavery and the relative standard de�iation, a.ee campared with acc�ptable criteria derived
within the laboratary or specified within the analytical method.
Methad De�ection Lrmits
Method detection limits (MDLs) a re d etermined i n a ccordance w ith f ederal g uidelines: 4 4CFR 136
Appez�dix B{;revision t.11}, The deiec�ion 1113ll� i5 defined as the mianimum eoncentration of a
�ubstance that can be measured and reparted with 99% confidence that the analyt� concentration is
greater than zero and is determined from analysis of a sample in a gi�en ma�trix. The statistical
procedure allows for computation af inethod detectian �imits based upon a minimum oi seven replicate
ana.lyses oi a ch�ck sample wluch is prepared at a concentration between 1 and S t:am�s the estimatad
MDL. The check sample is carried through the entire ana�ytical grocedure far the method, including
al� appropriate extractions, cleanups, and derivitizations, and the standard deviatian oi the result for
each target cvmpound is multiplied by the apprapriate Student's t factor to obtain the MDL,
For the MDL to be acceptal�le, the rat�a of M DL s pik� c oncenlxaiion t o c ale�latsd M DL { standard
de�iatian x siudent t) must no� be greater than 10. For U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the ratio should
he between 1 and 5 for reagent water matrix spikes and 1 and 10 for the salid ar other mairices.
The percent reeovery should be greater than twenty p�rcent (20%j for the MDL to be acceptable. If the
recovery is C 2Q%, an NIDL check sampi� may be analyzed {2 x the calculated MDL). All analytes in
the MDL check sarnple must be detected :for it ta be considcred v�.lid.
Before accepting the calculated MDL for a compaund, it must b� campared to the cancentration spiked
into the ch�ck sample. Ifthe concentration spiked into the check samples is between one and ten times
the calculated MDL, the MD� may be accepted. If the cancentration spiked is greater than ten times
the calculated NIDL, it indicates that the mathod is more sensiiive than exp�ctefl and either a new study
must be performed at a lower caneentration or, if repeating the study is impractical, the I��IDL may be
set to the �evel which was spiked inta the check samples. If fihe spike levei is less than the calculated
MDL, it indicates t�e method is Iess sensitive than expected and new study must be performed afi a
higher concentratian in order to obtain a valid MDL for the compour�d.

Practical Quantiiation Limit
Practical Quantita�ian Limit (PQL) is the lo�ve�t concentration that can be reliably achieved within
specified limits of precision and accuracy during routine laboratary apera�ing canditions. The PQL is
generally 5 ta 10 times the NIDL. Hawever, it may be ar�itrarily chosen within these guidelines ta
simplify data reporting. For many analytes tYie PQL analy�e concentration is selected as the la�uvest
non-zero standard in the calibratian curve, Sample PQLs are highly matrix-dependent. The FQL is
used as the laboratory reporting limits (RLj. These may ba adjusted to meet project specific data
quality ot�jectives (i.e., larger sample aliquot used, sample extract concentrated, etc.)
Retention Time Windows
Retentian Time Windows (RTWs} are established for chromatogaphic methads which do not I�ave the
capability to confirm compound identification. RTWs are also recommended for GCIMS methods
where cc�mpounds with similar spectra elute very closely (i.e. the Dich�orobenzenes and �everal
Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons). RTW studies provide not vnly a statistical basis for
identification of a'compaund through its retention time but also provide a trac0able record pro�ing that
� the compound assigned to a specific peak at the given retention time is, in fact, the targst compound.
Reteutian Time Window �tudies always start with documentation of the elution order for the target
compaunds on a specific calumn. The elution order may be documented in one of three ways:
1. Referer�ce to a published chromatogram supplied by the manufacturer of the column which
clearly indica,tcs the elution ordex and identification of ali target compounds under similar
chromatographic conditions to those ap�lied vs+ithin the laboxatory's methad.
2. Reference ta a chrort�atographic run with Mass Spec�ral peak identification perfarmed under
similar conditions to tho�e applied within the laboratory's method.
3. Elution of individual targe� compounds fram separate single-componeni standards under the
conditions of the analysis.
Once the elution arder is documented, the statistical variability of the retention times of the individual
target compounds are determined by cxlculating the standaxd deviation of each eompound's retention
time from at least three separate standards which have been analyzed on t�ree separate days. Once the
standard deviation is determined, a retention ti�ne window is established beginning at the mean
retentian time for the tar�et campound minus three s�andard de�iations and cankinuing to the meazx
plus three standard deviations. In most cases, the calculat�;d window will be rounded up or down ba��d
upon anatyst judgment befar� incorporation into a standardized compaund file within the appiicable
chromatographic data system. (�uture versions of CLP S�W will not require IDLs}.
I�tst�ument Detection Limrts
Instrument detection limits (IDL's) are dctermined in accordance with EPA CLP procedures outlined in
the Statement of Work for Tnorganic Analyses (Document number ILMO 4.1 and EPA SW846). The
instrurnent detectian limit may be determined by two methods: 1) by EPA SW846 af multiplying by 3
the average of the standard deviations obtained on t�ree non-consecutive days from the analysis of a

Ltnear Ranges
Lin.ear range v�erifications are also perfarmed in accardance with EPA SW846 procedures outlined in
the Methad 6010B Sectoin 7.2.5.4 (Document number II.M� 4.1). The lineax range for an elenlent is
the highest level for which a result will be reported far a given element from a specific run before
dilufion is required. Individual �;lement results of the upper dyr�amic linear range standard musi
quantify within ten percent o�their respective true values in arder tv qualify their linear ranges.
The upper limit of the linear dynamic range is determined by running a set of varying concentration
standards. Due to sensitivity af some elements (standards are analyzed as mixes, not individual
elements}, several standards may be needed to reach the upper limit for a particular element.
Interedemer�t Correction Factars
Tnterelernen� carrection factvrs {IECs} are determined by analyzing separate standards containing
known interference (i.e. calcium, magnesium, aluminttm, iron} and determining the effect each
interference has on the quantitation at the designated wa�velength for each other target elcment.
Interelement Correction factors are then calculated by dividing the inducad concentration of each
affected target analyt� by the cancentration of the interference which generated fihe si�al. Note th.at it
is extremely important �or the standards cantaining the interference to be obtained from the purest
possible source metals. Many com�nercially available standards of these elemanfs will actually contain
trace quantities of some of the other target elements. The trace quantities may b� su�'ficient ko cause
significant over-correctian for interelement interference if the resulting IECs are applied. Each IEC
standard should be aspirated and the resulting Atomic Emission spectrum at each wavelength of
interest should be viewed and evaluated for the presence af an actual target pealc before using the
standard for calculating IECs. The normal set of elements used as interference checks are: aluminum,
iron, chramium, copper, nickel, manganese, titanium, va.nadium. Minerals (calcium, magnesium,
sodium, and potassiutn) do not normally cause spectral interferences.

Calib�-ation
Standards Preparation and Cont�ol
Analy�ical standards used for calibrat�on include ISO 9000 Source (w�ene�er possible}, pure
(reference) materials, stock solutions, working solutions, ealibration standards, surrogate stan�ards and
check standards.
Primary Standa�d Materials
Pure or Primary Standard grade (reference} materials used for preparation af other standards are only
purchased from suppliers capable of provi�ing certificates of analysis or similar praof of purity. Where
applicable, EPA certified reference materials or client-supplied certified analytical reference materials
are used. All standard materials are marked with the receipt date, lot number and expiration date.
Stock Solutions
Stock salutian are prepared by dissolving known amounts of reference material(s) in a suitable solven�.
Alternativety, stack solutions may be purchased from vendors capable of supplying appropriately
certified solutians. Whether prepared in the laboratory ar pu�chased from a suitable source, the
following items must be recorded an the bottle cantaining the stock solu�.an:
L Unique Standard ID{tot numher, log book referencs, etc.}
2. Descriptive Labeling (i.e. "1Q0 �.g/ml Pesticide Spike Mix")
3. Date prepared (date received if purcnased)
4. Expiratian date
5. Initials of �he analyst preparing the standard {or opening standard if purchased)
6. Amy hazards or cautians associated with the solution (i.e. "Flammablc/Carcinogen")
7. Siorage Instructions (i,e. "�tare at -10°C"}
Okhet infoxmatian regarding the stock solution is entered into a standards Iag bool� speci�ic to the
analysis or area where the analysis is performed. The items recorded in the log book include:
1. Unique Standard TD
2. Date prepared
3. Expiration date
4. Saurce, Purity and Lot Number of all Reference Materials used
5. Saurce ar�d Lvt Number of all Solvents used
6. Descriptive tabulatian of all dilution steps
7. Initial/Final concentrations af aIl analytes
8. Preparing Analyst's initials
9. Instruc�ions for use (i.e. "spike 1.0 mL far M�"}
Once prepared and verif ed, standards are stored in separate refrigeraied areas away from samples and
extracts. Expiration dates are checked beFore a stock solution is used within the laboratory.
Working Standard Solutions
Warking standards are often nsed during the prepa�t'ation of calibration standards, surrogate spike
solutions and matrix spike solutions. Warking standard solutions are prepared by diluting known
quantities of stock solutions to concentration ranges which allow for more reproducible measurements

of the quantities used in preparation af the final standards. Working standard solutians are logged and
labeled the same way as stock solutians and are gene:rally included in the same log book. Nlost
con�entional chemistry working standards are stored at 4 f 2°C for periods of time specified in the
assaciated az�al�ical methods. Working standards for metals az'e stored at ambier�t temperatures for up
to si�t months. Organic �orking standard solutions are stared at -10°C ta -15°C vvh�n not in use and
require frequent re-preparation. Standards must be immediately returned to cold storage after each use.
Calibration Standards
Calibration standards are prepared �y diluting stock or warking solutions to the appropriate
concentrations required by the ana�y�ical methad. Preparation is recarded in a standards log book the
same way as for stock aa�d working solutions so that the final recart� provides traceabiiity of daily
s�andards to a certi�ed material or supplier. Each calibration standard container is labeled in the same
manner as a stock soluiian.
Culibratiara Check Standards
Check standards ar� prepared in the same manner as regular calibranan �tandards but from re£erence
materials or stock solu�ions which haue been obtained from a different source (i.e., different
supplier/vendar; and if not available, different �at number of thc s#andard} than Yhat used for the
calibration standards. �
Salvents
Solvents used for preparation of standards are cbecked far purity before use. All solvents must be fre�
fram target analytes and interferences far the method it is h�ing used for. If the solvents purchased are
af pesticide grade then an analytical clzeck for purit� is not required, buY m�.y be recommended. If the
solvents purchased axe not of p�s�icide grade, if required, the certifieation of analysis is checked far
impurities that might cause interferenc�. Only pestxcide grade salvents are used to prepare standards
for GC ar GC/MS, and spectrally pure, interference free soivents for HPLC methods. Freon used far
preparativn af standards and �xtraction o� samples for oil and grease content is purch�sed as a certified
reagent from the supplier or is distilled prior �a use. Only reagents ar solvents eertified by the supplier
as "trace metal" grade are used fvr preparation of standards for metals analysis. ASTM type II reagent
water is used far preparaiion of aIl aqueous solutians and standards.
Instrument Calihration Procedures
Anaiytical I nstrumentaiion i s c alibrated using traceable standards in accordance �with the calibration
requirements specified in the pertinent analytical �nethod. Speci�c instrumentation employed within
�he laboratory and the routinc calibration procedures far each method are briefly describ�d below.
Gas Chromatagraphy (SW 8015B Mod., 80218, 8081A, 8082)
Gas chromatographs are initially calibrated using a five paint calibration. Each day, the initial
calibration is verified by the use af a eontinuing calibration standard which is �om�ared to �he ini�ial
calibration curve, Tf the response falls within the acceptable limits specified i�y the published reference
or method SOP, the run ma� continue with the blank and samples. If the continuing calibration fails,
then the aa�alyst must inspect the instrument and methodalogy �'or errar. rf it is beIieved that an error
was possible, the analyst may elect to re-inj�ct the continuing calibration sarnple and cantinue with the
analysis if it praves ta meet the acc�ptance criteria. Yf the continuing calibratian standard daes nat
meet ihe acceptance criteria, a ncw initial calibration must be perfarrned. Methods such as 8021B and
&481A/8082 (Aromatic Volatile Organic and Organochlorine PesticideslPCB's respectively, all GC and

HPLC methods) alsa require that a calibration check standard to be analyzed after every 1Q samples
and at the end of the analytical batch.
�
Method 8081A includes pravision for analysis of a pesticide degradation standard (DDT/Endrin
Breakdawn Standard) prior to sample analysis and daily thereafter. When analysis is c�ndueted for
pesticides, the degradation standard will be analyz�d and checked against the hrealcdown criteria
specified in the method. Poor perforrnance on the breakdown standard indicates the presenee of
fouling materia� in the injection liner which may affect proper identificatian and quantitation of Endrin
and DDT along with their respective. degradation praducrs. Failure to meet the breakdown criteria for
either compound will normally require injector maintenance fallawed by re-confrmation of
ealibration. '
Every time a new column is used a new initial calibration must be perfa�ed. Some analysas, �ueh as
those involving volatile target compotu�.ds, may require more frequent re-calibration as indicated by the
perfotmance of calibration �checks or 1�y the requirements af a specific customer or methad.
r�
Because identification of compaunds by gas chromatography is based primarily upan retention time
and ca-elution of non-target compounds can occur, positive results for target compotulc�s detected on a
singie calumri wi11 be considered tentat�ve until confirmed by one of the follvwing techniques:
1. Elution� at the appropriate retention time and with an equivalent response (i.e, within ±40% of
the first response) on a second column w�ich exhibits a different elution pattern than th�
ar�ginal column. �
2.. Re-analysis by GC/MS ar another techriique involving qualitative identification of the target
analyte.
Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (SW 8260B, S270C)
GC/MS instrumantation is subjected to a mass spectrometer tune chec�c using Bromofluorobenzene
(BFB} for volatiles (8260B} and D ecafluorotriphenylphasp�ine ( DFTPP) far s emi-valatiles ( 8270C)
before coniinuing with any further calibration or a,nalyses. The criteria for acceptance of tune checks is
specified in each analytieal meihac�.
As with the nvrmal gas chromatography methods, a five point initial calibration curve is run %r each
GCIMS target analyte. A mid-paint cQntinuing calibration check is then run every 1� hours, along with
samples, and the responscs of the method-specif ed system p�rformance check compounds (SPCCs)
and calibration check compounds (CCCs) are compared with the criteria specified in the appropriate
rnethods. When the daily calibratian standard relative response factars fall vu#side the acceptable limits
far the ana.iytes, a new irutial calibration is run.
Interriai standard compounds are included with al1 samples and standards analyzed by GCIMS. These
cornpounds provide benchmark areas for quantitaiion of ali other eampounds within a given injection.
The primary ion raspo�e area from each internal standard in e�ery i�.jection must fall within the range
of -54 to +100% of its corresponding area in the daily calibration standard in order to maintain
consistent documentation of the applicability of the caiibration curve ar response factor� fram the
initial and/or daily calibration.

Inductively Coupled Plasrraa Atomic Ernission Spectroscapy (S�'601OB)
Analysis for metats by ICP requu`es an initial calibratiQn consisting of ai least a blank and three
standards fol�owed by either daily drift correctipn with a high and low standazd ar da.ily recalibra.tian
with a blank and three standards. Tn either case, calibration is fallowed by analysis of a second-source
initial caiibration verification (ICV} check standard and an initial calibration �lank {ICB). A mid-level
continuing calibration �erification {CCV) and a cantinuing calibrafion blank {CCB) are also a�un after
every ten samples and at the end of the daily run. IeVs and CCVs tr�u�t quantify within th.e acaeptance
criteria specified b� the analytical method and IC$s/CCBs must yield results which aire Iess than the
reparting limits far the elements, reporting limits may be PQL or MI7L.
Interelement Cor.rection factors (IECs) must also be verified at the beginning and again at the end of
each run (or within eight hours of the first verification} by aspiratin� of a check standard containing
only the interfering elements (iCSA) and then hy aspiration of a standard contaaning interference along
with known levels of target elements {ICSAB). The absolute values resulting far the target analytes in
the ICS,A should not be significantly greater than their respective reporting limits. The target elements
in the ICSAB must quantify within 20% of their true values.
Serial dilutions and post digesiion spike test are performed far each preparatian batch and are used to
verif�+ t h� presence o'r absenae of interferences. Serial dilution invol�es analyzing a second diluted
(normally 1:5 dilution) aiiquot of a sample. Results must agree withiz� � 10%. Post digestive spikes
are when a digestate is spiked with standards and recoveries checked. The recovery must be within 75-
125% of the known value.
Failure to meet the calibration acceptance �riteria will necessitata corr�ctive actions such as repair and
re-calibration of #he instrument followed by re-analysis of any sampl�s analyzed while the calibration
was ou� of control. F'ailure to verify IECs may indicate the need for redetermination.
When GFAA or AA detection limits are requi�ed, analysis is performed on Certes' solid state ICP,
capable af achieving these limits, Where MDL studies do noi support meeting limits on a particular
elernent, or if due to regulatory or client specific DQO's GFAA/AA methods ar� required, sampies will
be s�bcont�racted to att ap�roWed lab performing the appropriate AA or ICP/MS method upon approval
from the client.
IR and UY/Visible Spect�ophotometry
Anaiyses involving photametric determination (TR, W/Vis} require a daily 3 to 5 point initial
calibratzan fa�lowed by a mid-point standard which is included with every ten samples analyzed and at
the end af the daily run.
Snzallltzstrument Cali6ration
pH rneters, conductivity meters, colorimeters, thermocouples, and relat�d sma11 laboratory
measuremeni de�ices are calibrated according to manufacturer`s instructions. Wherever possible,
calibratian is confirmed by analysis andlor adjustment againsi a tr�ceable reference material {i.e.
traceabl0 pH buffers, traceable conducti�ity standards}.

critical temperaiure measurements such as:
� Sample Coaler Monitoring
� Standard and Ext�act Starage Monitori�g
Q Solids Drying Ovens
e Incubatars Monitoring
Traceable mercury thertnometers are ahecked at the ice point against an rTIST traceable priznary
reference standard thermometer or are replaced by another certi�ied traceable thermameter on at least
an annual basis. If the ice-point check indicates the need for temperature carrectian, the thermarneter
is either marked wit�i a special tag indicating the corr�ction amount or is discarded in fa�or of a
thermometer which does nvt require cazrection.
Yolumeiric Glassware
Other measur�rnent devices which are invoi�ed in ar� analytical process, such as �olumetric pipettes,
burett�s, and calibrated syringes require some Form of docurnented calibration as well. In. most cases,
this requirement is satisfied by the manufacturer and indicated on the appropriate device via a
classification mark (i.e, "Class A" for volumetric pipettes) ar via a s�rial number insenibed on �he
device and an accornpanying certificate af calibration. For �olumetric glassware, the laboratory
rautinely uses only devices calibrated by the manufacturer ta meet the "Glass A" requ�rernents
specified in ASTM standard E969 for mathods requiring votumetric transfer af liquids.
�'ield Equipment CalibratiQn
Field �quipment ar�d other laboratory measuring devices a�re calibrated against re�erence standards on at
least an annual basis. Field equipment incl�des iterzas such as flaw meters, colorimeters and hand�held
pH, conductivity, or dissalved oxygen meters. Where labaratory personriel are invol�ved in sampling

Internal Quality Cantrol Checl�s aad Control Charts
The laboratory's approach to Internal Quality Control checks consists af the incorporation ai several
specific types of "QC Samples" wiihin the nortnal laboxatory analytical scheme cornbined with
evaluation of the QC Sa�nple results against methad-specified control limits or against statistically
derived control li�nits and contral charts.
QC Check Samples
QC Check Samples include hlanks, labaratory. control samples, matrix spikes, laburatoxy contral
samples, duplicates, and reference sarnples. The check samples are includ�d in analytical batches as a
means of assessing d�ta quality for validation purposes and to assist in manitor€ng the perfarmance of
the method. Additional check samples may �ae included in tlie sample stream at the disaretion of the
Director of Technical Services or when necessary to o�tain statistical data for overall laboratory
performance evaluations or revision of Data Quality Objectives. The specific prQcedures for
preparation, treatment, and frequency of check satnples vary depending upon the method employed.
Method Blanks
For almost all types of analyses, a method blank is p�'epared and analyzed with e�ery batch of samples.
Batches may contain as many as 20 samples for conventional chemishy parameters and for S W-846
organics and rnetals procedures. The rnethod blank is a matrix blank (i.e. reagent water, reagent sand,
sodiu�n sulfate) which is carried thraugh the e:ntire preparation and ar�alytical process to check for
bac�Cground or procedural contamination. Method blank results should be very close ko or le�s than the
detectian limit for the analyte.
Field/Trip Blanks
Fielci andlor Trip blanks may be included if Certes personnel are i�valved in sampling or if provisio:ns
for field blanks are included in sample kits sent to the customer. The field biank is used ta determine if
sample eontamination is occurring during collection and shipment to the laboratory. Field blanks are
especially applicable to volatile orgar�ics analysis (VOA) where volatiile cantaminarzts can be
introduced from ambient air an-site, during shipment, and in the labaratory.
Matrix Sp�kes
Matrix spikes are included with every batch of samples {where sample volufne ailows) and are used to
assess ihe ability af the method to recover a known quantity of ana�yte from a real-warld sample
matnix. The matrix spike is a customer's sample �vhich has been fortified with a known amount af the
specific analyte(s) being determined by the test meihod. The rnatrix spike is primarily an indicator of
whether or not interference in the sample matr�x might be inhibiting the ability of the preparation and
analysis procedures to recover the analyte of interest. Low spike recoverics indicate possible
interference present in the sample rnatrix.

Revision 21; S�ptember, 2002
Sur�ogate Compauncds
A special type of spiking compaund or group of compounds is added to all samples which are analyzed
by GC/M5 and mast GC meihods. T hese "s urrogate s pike" c ompaunds are s imilar t o t I�e a nal�rtes
narmally detected by the method but are not cornpounds typically found in the enviranment. They
provide a check on the possibility of matrix interference or pr�paration inefficiencies for every sample
analyzed and can be monitored relatively easily. Acceptable limits for surrogate recoveries are
specifi�d in the analytical methods or may be deri��d within fihe laboratory.
Duplicates
Duplicate samples are included in thc vast majority of analytical methods and may be ei�her sample
duplicates, laboratory contro� sample duplicaie (LCSD) or matrix spike duplicates (MSD). Matriac
spike duplicates are pref�rred where the likelihood of encountering the analy�e in any gi��n sample is
relatively low wl�ile regular sample duplica�es are applicable ta methods where the analyte is known to
be presen� in most samples. Duplicate samples, which �rield results below detection �imits, are r�ot
acceptable for �se in assessing the precision of the method or far data validation; so some methads will
utilize both matrix spike and regular sample duplieates to ensure recovery of legitimate duplicate
results. Duplicate sample results gi�e an indication of the repeatability or precision of the t�st method.
Acceptable 1 imits for t h� r esults are sei far specific methods and their analytes. In sorne cases the
limits corne frorn the published rne�hods while in others the limits are established statistically within
the taboratory.
Reference Samples
Reference saranples (also called L�boratary Control �ampl�s) are included with every analytical batch
along with the rest of �he check samples and are us�d to �nonit�r the accuracy (in terms of bias) of the
method. Reference samples may be specially prepared and certified materials purchased frvm outside
�ources or may be blank matrices whici� ha�e been spiked by lab personn�l with the analyte(s) of
interesi. Reference samples are used to check the ov�rall ability of the method to produce results within
aceeptable ranges of true or reference values. The reference sampie is particu�arly critical in validating
data praducet� by an analytical run and unacceptable results vviil aUnost always invalidate the
corresponding data.
Stati�tical Quality Control {Control Charting)
Certes utilizes a hard copy system of control charting to rr�aintain statistical documcntation of the
analytical p rocessas c onducted i n t he 1 abaratory. W hile m ost i nstrument control software has been
configured to check qualiiy canirol indicators, sueh as surrogate recoveri�s, against established
acceptaz�ce criteria, con�rol charting is usefui for long t erm and t rend m onitoring o f q uality c ontrol
checks. When the analysis of a sample set (batch) is completed, the analyst reviews the pertinent
analytical data against fixed method requirements for calibration and instzument contral. Recaveries
for quality cantrol samples are calet�la�ed and plotted on control charts anc� the analyst eva.luates
whether or not the method is in the �lnalytical Cc�rtt,�ol by examining the accuracy and precision for the
batch in relatian to th� warning and control limits in effect at the tirne.
Control charts contain applicable centerline, warning and eontrol limits for each parameter plotted. An
initial set of data paints {30 or greater} of the quality control parameter are used ta calculate the mean
value, standard deviation, the warning limits (t2Q) and the control limits (±30'). The analyst evaluat�s
the analytical precisian and accuracy and compares it to published control limits. The laboratory limits

mus� at least meet the pubiished control limits. Otherwise, carrectivs action must be taken. Unless the
analytical system is significantly changed ar modified, all future qua�ity control parameters are
compared to �he estati'Cished limits. In some cases, warning and cantrol limits have been pre-
determined by the analytica� method employed or have been pre-set at specific le�vels in accarda�ce
with the laboratary's published Data Quality Objeetives. In such cases, the lunits remain the same and
the c ontx�ol c hart i s u tilized p rimarily t o c onfirm compliance with the method requirements or Data
Quaiity Qbjectives and to evaluate trends. Multiple cantrol charts may be utilized on an annual or
semi-annual basis to update the laboratory's published Data Quality Objectives.
Evaluation af Analytical Contral:
Contxol charts are developed to ascertain the eontrol status of a given analytical method through visual
evaluation. The data may also be represented in tabular form for quick refer�nce. In addition to
checking for single-point out-of-control events, the analyst can use the contral charts to predict lxends
in the analytical proces�es which alsa indicate when an analysis is out-of-eontrol. Corrective actions
must be initiated. if the control chart indicates the presence of an out-of-control situation. An out-of
� con�rol situation is indicated if
1, One point plats outside the controllimit.
2. Two sequential points plot outside warning limit but within the control limit.
3. Seven sequential points plof on the same side of tlie centerline. Note that this may not
necessarily b e a n indication o f�. n o ut o f c on�rol situatia� far methods where control
lunits are pre-set by the method or Data Quality Ob�ectives.
4. Seven sequential points glot in an increasing or decreasi�g arder.
5. Seven or more sequential points plot in a cyclical pattern.
Possible causes of an out-of-control trend {ite�ns 2- 5) might include:
1. Shift in rnean - this may be caused by incorrectly prepared standards or reagents,
problems in instrtarnent calibration, or systematic analyst error.
2. Trend of inean upward - this may be caused by d�terioratior� af siandards or reagents.
3. Trend of inean downwa�rd - ihis may be caused by coneentration of standard due to
evaporatian of solvent or deterioration of instrumental response (possibly due to
contamination, active sites, etc.).
4. Increase in variability - this may be caused by pvor analyst technique or deviation from
procerlure.
5. Cyclical Process - this rnay be the result oitemperature fluc�uatiot�s, improper storage of
reagents and standards, or lack ofprapar inshumerat maintenance.

Carrective Actions for Oa�t-of-Cantrol Situations;
1, Failure of Cor�tinuing Calibration Verification (CCT�: If caught right after a CCV, try to
evaluate the reason it failed. Ar� all analytes low? If so, it rnay have been a bad injeetion or
purge. Look for degradation. It may be necessary ta perForm injector maintenance, such as for
pes#icides, or sample introductian system, su�h as on an ICP, (Clean spray chambEr, nebulizer,
andlor replace sample tubing.)
Make the abov� changes and pre�entive maintenance as required. Rerun the CCV. If it passes,
continue with analysis. If it fails, further maintenance or repairs may be needed, including
replacing columns, vendor repairs, detectar cleaning, etc, After these carrectians a�'e made, run
a new initial calibration cuive and reeheck tha CCV. �f the CCV fails during an autosampler
sequence, run all samples from the last passing CCV. If the first CCV run passes, cont'rnue
w'rth analysis of rer�n satnples. If it fails twice, fallow ihe above-mentioned preventive
maintenance and corrective action.
2. Failure of a Laboratory Ca�ttrol Sarnple (LCS) or Laborato�-y Control Sample Duplicate
(LCSD): Look for trends such as a11 a�nalytes low or high, only volatile or higher boiling
compaunds low ar high, only acids or base neutrals low ar high. If e�aluation indicates anly an
analysis probl�m, rerun the LCS. If the instz�u�nent is in calibration, the CCV passes and the
LCS stiil fails, submit a request for re-prep of the extraction b atch o r r erun a 11 s amples f or
volatiles once a passing LCS is established. If it fails a second time upon re-prepping, stop all
analysis and review the prep procedure and spiking solutions. Check the spi,ke solution directly
ta see if it has degradad or evaporatedlconc�ntrated. Re�lace the spiking solution if necessary.
Check all volumetric dispensing and weighing balances for proper operatian. Correct problerris,
re-prep the batch and reanalyze the LCS (and LCSD, if required) and all samples from th�
batch.
�. Failure of Matrix Spake (MS) and/ar Matrix Spike Duplicate (11�SDj: If LCS (and LCSD, if
requi�ed} pass criteria, more tl�an likely the MSIMSD fa.il�re is a result at' sample matrix
affects. Try rerunning them first. If they pass, report the passin� results. If they fail, if
rec�uired by contract or client, the samples will be re-preppad. At minirnum, the data will be
flagged and explained in a case narrativa.
4, Surrogate Failures: Chcck for trends as discussed in the LCS. Rerun first. If it fails a seeond
tirne, the sample should be re-prepped and reanalyzed to canfirm matrix affects. If insufficient
sample remait�s far re-prep/r�-extraction, the sample surragates will be flagged.
5. Internal Standard (IS) Failures: Evat�ate for matrix a.ffects. Rerun to confirm. If passible,
dilute extract sample, add appropriate arnount of IS and reanalyze. Reporting of data wili be
dependenY on the client and/nr contract. In rnost cases, report the lowest dilution that meets IS
acceptance criteria, If it is not possible to c�ilute, note the I� iail�ire i:n the Case Narrative.
Based on "EPA's CLP National Functional Guidelines for Qrganic Data Revievv";
a. Pasiti�e results for compounds using IS outside crite�ia shauld be qualiiied with "estimaied
value"�
b. Non-detected campounds quantitated using an IS area eount greater than 204% should nai
be qualified.

c. Non-detec�ed campounds quantitated using IS area less than 50% are reported with normal
PQL and qualified as not deteeted and esiimated.
d. In cases of �tremely 1ow IS area counts indicating severe loss of sensitivity, nan-detected
target compounds should be qua.lified as unusuable or documented in the Case Narrative.
6. Initial Calibratoan �erifcataon (ICT�: Same as CCV.
7. Continuing Cadibration Blank (CGB): Rerun the CCB. Perform i nstrument m aintenance i f
nec�ssary. If it passes, rerun a11 samples from paint of passing CCB.
8. Interelement Correction Solutaon Check Standards (ICS and INTCHK}: Check IECS,
background correc�ions. Adjust if necessary and recalibrate and reanalyze checks.
Analyst is required to inform the Technical Director if any of the abave occur. Note that trenc�s
involving evaluation of plutked data a�ainst tt�e mean are not applicable to RPD (Precisian) control
charts.
Deiermination of Control Limits for Analytteal Accuracy:
Accuracy, when mea�red in terms of bias, indicates the closeness of analytically det�rn�ned results to
true or reference values. A systematic program invalving sample spiking (Matrix Spikes) and analysis
of reference samples (Laboratary Control Sampl�s) is conducted to determine the labaratary's normal
accuracy when employing an analytical method. The quality control parameter (statistic) used for
accuracy evaluation within the laboratory is the Percent Recovery (%R). The Percent Recovery results
from Matrix Spikes and Laboratory Control Sarnples are plotted on independent charts or are
re�resented in tabular form and are both used during evaluation of analytical accuracy. The equation
used to calculate Percent R�cavery values is given below (Equation 1):
%R — �F—S) x 100 �1)
T
where: %R = th� Percent Recovery
F = the total amount of analyte found in the sample
S = khe amount of analyte already present in the sample
T = the amount of analyte spiked into the sample
Control limits may be calculated using an initial sek of data points (30 or greater), the mean (equation
2} and standard deviation (equation 3) of the Percent Recovery values.

Warning and Control Limits for Percent R�covery control c�arts are then calculated using the
following equations: �
Uppar Contro! Limit = m+ 3 x StdS
Lower Control Limit = m- 3 x StdS
LTpper� Warning Limit = m f 2 x Stds
Lower �Varning Limit � m- 2 x StdS
Determination of Control Lirrtits forAnadyticalPrecision:
Precision is the measure af how closely mu3tiple analyses of a particular sampie agree with each other.
Precision is assessed by replicat� analyses �uch as a samplelduplicate pair, matrix spike/ma�rix spike
duplicate pair, or by analysis of replicate Laboratory Control Samples. Most analyses will utilize and
plot only one type of replicate on a routine basis. Tn situations where more than one type of replicate is
used, only one RPD needs to be plotted ar�d used for evaluation of analytical contral. The order of
prec�d�nce to be uset�when determining whic� RPD should be used is as follaws:
If a reportable sample/duplicate RPD is obtained frarn aliquots exhibiking results greater than
10 times the applicable detection limit {i.e. IDL ar MDL) and within t�e linear or normal
re}aorting range of �he method, the RPD must be plotted and used for evaluation of analytical
cantrol.
2, If a sample/duplicate pair was not included with the batch or did not meet the criteria listed
abo�e, a matrix spikelmatrix �pike duplicate pair rnust be plotte�l and used for evaluation of
analytical control if it was included in the batch and the analyte concen�ration in the un-spiked
sample was not significantly greater than the spiking level (i.e. greater than four times).
If a sample/duplicate and/or matrix spike/matrix spike duplicate pair were not included in the
batch ar did not meet the criteria listed afaove, a replicate pair of Laboratory Control �amples
rnust be plotted and used for evaluatian of analytical control if it was included in the batch.
The results of the replicate analyses are used to calculaie the relative percent difference (RPD), which
is the governing quality cantz�ol parameter far precision. The RPD for replicate analyses is defined as
100 ti�es the difference (range} of each replicate set, dividad by the a�verage �aluc (mean) of the set.
Note that the absolute ualue of the ca�culated RPD is reported and charted. For replicat� results Dj
and D2, the RPD is calculated fram Equation 4:
RPD = D' � DZ x200
D, � Dz
��)
When an initial set of data points {30 or greater) are collected, control limits may be caiculated using
the mea�a (equation 5) and standard deviation (equation 6) of the RPD value�.

When constructing a ra�ge control chart, the Warning and Control Limits are determined as follaws:

The upper control limit and upper warning litnit are written on a contral chart and the chart then serves
as the basis far evaluation and documentatian of �nalytical control. Iu order to aid in visual evaluation
of �he chart, the warning and control Iimit may be plat�ed as solid horizontal lines across the graph at
their respective points on the Y axis, Lawer Warning and Control Limits are not used because only
absalute values are reported for f,he RPD parameter. Trends involving evaluation of plotted data
against the mean are not applicable to RPD contral charts.
Exampre: ,
Figure 2 presents an example of a control chart far the analytical accuracy of Gasoline Range Organics.
Note the following items:
1. Point 12 is out of control because it plots outside the contral limit.
2. Point 18 is out of control because it is the second sequential point to plot autside the warning
limit but within the controllimit.
3. 1'oint 21 is aut o€ aonttol because it is the s�venth point fo plot a6ove the mean. Note,
hawever, that this ty�e of control issue may not be applicable to methods where DQOs are pre-
set.
4. Paint 24 is out of control because it is the se�enth poinfi to plot in a descendin� pattern.
5. A cyclical pattern is exhibited by points 26 tht'ough 36. The method is co�sidered out of
control when the pattern, consisting of at least seven paints, is detected. (Sea figure 2)

log or may be generated by camputerized instrumentat�on on standard printer paper which is then
bound and stored.
During manual recording, it is the rssponsibility af i�he analyst to record all data us'rng proper
documentation procedures. Proper procedures rnclude:
1. Accurate recot�ds of analysis dateltime
2. Legible writing with no modificatians, write-overs, or cross-oufis
3. Correc�ian af errors with a single line followed by an initial and date
4. Proper application of significant figures and rounding rules
5. Praper documentation and application af all calculations employed
6. Proper inclusian of any miscellaneous instrumental data, charts, or drawings
7. Inclusion oi Analyst signature and date
8. Inclusion of Reviewer signaturc and date
Various instruments in the laboratories provide a computer-generated hard copy oF tt�e chramatograms,
spectra, calculations, calibraCions, resulis, or other data. This information is retained in bulk with the
instrument logs or 'rs kept with th� client's files for �he :refere�ced sample.
Instrument hard copy data is Iaheled to provide a correlation between run dates, batches, and specific
samp�es. In situations whcre ihe instrument does not perfarm complete calculatian of final results, all
data, exccpt chromatographs, taken from the instrument hard copies is transferred ta a bound laboratory
notebook for final calculations. The specific calculations employed in the computation of analytical
resuIts are detailed in the Standa,rd Operating Pracedures for the individual methods.
Data Reduction
in general, data wi�1 be processed by an analyst in one of the following ways:
Page 3$ of $3 Certes Environmental Laboratories, L.L.C.
CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
� Quality Assurance Managemen# P1an
Revision 21; September, 2002
- Manuat computation of resuits with manual reporting,
- Computer computation of results with manual reporting,
- Compu�er computation and reporting of results.
If the data is manually processed by an analyst, a11 steps in the computation are pravided for review
including the source of inpuf parameiers such as response factors, dilution factors, and catibration
constants, Th� analyst signs and dates each page of ca�culatidns and data within a bound log baok for
dacumentation purposes. The bound log book is used for data validatian and re�iew.
For data that is pracessed using a carnputer and then entered into the LIMS by an analyst or data entry
personnel, a hard copy of the computer-generated resul�s is kept and uniquely identified with the
sample numbers along with any other infarmation as may be needed. The hard capy results axe used
for data validation and reviaw.
� If computer processed data is directly acquired from the instrumentatian, hard capies of the actual data
to be transferred along with tape back-up eapies of unprocessed data are made and the analyst verifies
that the following are correct before releasing instrumental data to the reporting system:
- sample nurnbers
- calibratian canstants / response factors
- output parameters such as units and cornpaund names
- numerical values used for detection limits
- di�ution and preparation factors
The hard copies of results are used for data validation and review.
Data Validation
Data Validation is the process of �erifying data quality against labaratory or praject specific quality
control criteria. The first step in the data validation process is the review of all the pertinent qualiiy
assessment samples (calibrations, calibration checks, cantral samples} accampanying a�atch of
analytical samples. Results frorn calibration standards, calibration check standards, rnatrix spikes,
mahix spike duplicates, reference �amples, blanks, surrogates, sample duplicate�, and any other check
samples which may have been included in the batch or sarnple stream are determined and compared to
tY�e acceptabilit� limits and applicabl� control charts for the gi�en method. If' the QC data is within
limits, the validation process continues with a manual re-check of the data processing ar calculations.
The reviewer reviews and veriiies the calculations or data processing results, signs and dates khe report
and approves the worksheet in LIMS. This step can bE performed by an independent analyst or by a
qualifi�d manager. �
Validation of analytical data is rautinely based upon the criteria specified in the following tables.

Reporting Data
When all analyses for a specifie delivery group af sarnples are complete, recoxded, validated, and
appro�rsd for release to the client, a summary report in the final reporting format is generated fram the
LIMS. The chain of custody, quality control reports, copies of case narratives, presen+ation forms, and
any other requested doeumentation are attached to a copy of the finai report and the entire package is
subjected to review by Project Management. A copy of the final, approved report is filed by Lab
Proj��t ID number and t�e original is sent to the cust�mer. Copies of the reports are kept for a
minimum of five years along with the c�rresponding raw data used in the �eneration of the report.
Despite rigorous Quality Contral safeguards, incorrect data may on rare occasion be reported. This
could be due to human enar, typographics, transcription or data entry. T4�ese results are researchad by
the Quality Assurance Manager and original analyst. If correction is nccessary, a new report is revised
with an apprapriate explanation in the ease narrative and sent to the client. Bath reports are kept in the
assigned job folder.
Often, a client requesis quality con�rol data specific to the analys�s conducted on tlaeir samples. Quality
Conirol Reports are generated in the laborator�+ by analysts or data review personnel associated with
each analytical depariment. When results are complete, the reviewer pr�pares a hand-written f orm
detailing the results af the individua! quality control check samples associated with the batch in which
the ciient's sample was run. The har�d-written QC form is typed and appended to the final repvrt for the
job. An exarnple of a Quality Control Report is includ�d in Figure 3 and 3A. .
Data Review
Certes uses a three-level data review process to insure all data meets quality controt and project
specif c requirements. First, the analyst responsible for generating the data reviews it for quality
contral compliance. A second person familiar with the analysis rechecks key quality con�rol indicators
and checks accuracy of raw data results with LIlVL� inputted results. Finally, a, member of the project
management department reviews the complete project, verifying project specific requirernents and
completeness. In some cases, the Quality Assurance Department will review the final project �.tle if it
involves a data packag� {CLP-like).

COIVIPUTER HARDWARE AND �OFTWARE
All hardware and soflware purchased by Certes Environmental Labaratories goes through a thoraugh
pracess of validation and quality check before it is placed into real-world usage.
Pre-l�ardware and Software Purchase
Any s oftware t hat i s p urchased m ust b e r eviewed and approved by the systems administrator, The
systerns adzninistrator determines if the saftvware can rneet the demands of the laboratory and vvill be
valid for a certa�n amount vf time. The systems administrator installs all softwa.re, unless a vendor
representative is assigned to install the specific soflware. In tt�e case of vendor installatian the systems
administrator aversees the izistalla�ion. All hartlwara used for data acquisition must be reviewed and
approved by the technical martager. The technical manager determines if ihe hardware can handl�; the
labaratory's needs, and is responsible for the installation or �he overseeing of the installa�ion of any
hardware.
Soft-vvare Validation
Certes Enviranmental Laboratories uses five diifereni types of software for data acquisition and
processing. A 11 s oftware w as v alidated b y t he a ssaciated x nstrumen# vencfar. Chrom Perfect� and
Hewlett Packard Chemsiation� are software packages used for data acquisition on Hewlett Packard
Gas Chromatographs and Mass Sp�ctrometers. Thesc software packages are ISO 9001-3 certified
which used by the vendors to valida�e their s�ftware. Thermaspec� is ttsed far data acq�isitioz� on the
Thermo Jerrel Ash ICP. This software package is alsa ISD 9001-3 certified. Spectro Smart Ana�yzer
is used for data acquisition on the Ciros ICP and is validated through a quality policy that Ciros has on
their website at www,ciros-ai.com. It is alsa validaied during Certes methods develapmen� accarding
to EPA protocol. Aspen is the Labaratc�ry Infarmation Manag�ement �ystem (I�IMS) that Ce�rtes us�s
�'ar da�a entry and report writing. Aspen is also ISO 90Q0 certified.
Hardware Validation
Certes check� instrumentation by internal �tandards as sure validity af data. The �echnical manager is
responsible for �e data quality check for any n�w instrurnent before it certified for produc�ion. The
techn�cal manager has a set of standards that he uses to check the quality produced by any instrument that
is to be used. The systerns administrator goes thro�gh a check to assure that any hardware is Year 20D0
campliant E�efors it is installed and usad. The Systerns Administrator checks that the audit trail function is
enabled and used.
Security
Certes has a security system in place for itis sofiware and critical haxdware. The sezver and all soflwaxe are
located in a secure Iocked camput�r roam rnaintained by the syatems admini�trator. Within the network
and LIMS system, each user is assigned by the systerns adzninistrator user narne and password, wluch
restricts access to the system. Each user can only browse necessary area� on the networte and LIMS
system. Data previous to the current year is Uacked up into cotnpact disc and placed in a fireproof safe
�vithin the locked computer room. AIsQ in this safe is a daily backup of ihe a11 infarmation located on the
server.

PREVE�ITIVE MAII�'E�iANCE
In arder to prevent system down tim�, minimize corrective maintenance cost and to help insure data
validity, Certes uses a system of pre�entive maintenance. S�ecific operatar manuals are used to
pinpoint st�;ps in the preventive maintenance scheme for individual instruments. All routine
maintenance is performed as recommended by the manufacturer. The manuals also a5515t in
identificarion of comrnonly needed replacement parts sa that an inventary of these parts can be
praperly maintained. Maintenance contracts are purchased for large, complex, or v�ery sensitive
instr�ments and equigment. This insures periodic preventive maintenance visits by factory authorized
service representatives and immedia�e serviee for carrective actions if required. Critical spare parts are
kept on hand.
li�a'rntenance a�nd Repair Logs
A maintenance�and repair log is associated with each instrument. Nota�ian of the date and maintenance
activity is recorded every time special or routine service procedures are performed. This includes
routine service checks by labaratory personneI as well as factory service calls. Routine service checks
by laboratory personnel would include such t�ings as the replacement of a nebulizer, cleaning a mixing
chamber, char�ging gas fittings, or replacing a colamn. More extensive main�enance is performed by
authorized representatives of the instrument manufacturez, Instrumentation la�s are periadically
reviewed by the Director of Technical Services and the information contained in them is used to help
identify t�e long and short term equipment needs of the Laboratory.
Qptimization or service-ca�ibration intervals are assigned to all instruments as part of the preventive
maintenance program. Normal method validation, calibration and proeess control protocols are
designec� to detect the need for unscheduled maintenance and are used insure that th� instrument
produces acceptable resulis following repair ar service-calibration.
Temperature Contral Logs
Temperature con�rol Iogs, Figt�re 6, are used for ovens, refrigerators, incubators, and other tempexature
controlled equipment. Terr�p�rature Iogs provide a written recard of operating consistency for
monitored �quipment and help to immediately identify or even prevent equipment malfiinctions which
might coanpromise sample integrity ar data quality.
Deionized W�ter Monitaring
Reagent grade water foz' the lab is generated by passing city source water through a deioniza�ion
process at several locatior�s within the laboratory. The quality is monitored using in-Iine conducti�ity
indicators. When indicators shaw water quality is not being rt�aintained, the use is discontinued at the
location and the system isserviced. This water may undergo further treatment {such as b oaling f or
suIfide analysis or purging with nifrage� �ar valatile anaIysis} depending on the method requirements.

AUDITS
Laboratory audit procec�ures provide assurance that the guality cantrol process is besng performed
effectively. Audits specifically provide management with an on-going assessment of the quality of results
produced by the laboratary including how well the Data QuaIity Objec�ives (DQOs} are being met. They
are instnsmental in identifyin� axeas where improvement in the QA plan will increase the reliability of the
data and are used to demonstrate that the QA plan is actually being implemented. System wide audits shall
be performcd ai least annually and nnanagement shall conduct a review of such quality systcros. T`he audit
shall cover the quality systems aad its testing and calibration activiines to ensure its continuing suitability
and effectiveness and to introduce any neCessary changes or improvements in the quality system and
laboratory operations. All audit and review f�ndings and any corrective actions that arise from them shall
6e docurnented.
Data QUality Audits
Audits of data quality are systernatic inv�stigations used to determine whett�er data derived from a specific
method or measurement source conform to the requirements specified by the customer, are cansistent with
the labvratory's Data Quality Objectives, comply with the m�thoc� quality controi requirements, a.nd were
obtained using sound laboratory practices. Specific items checked include:
Adherence to storage and holding time requiremen#s
CozxApliance with method proccdures
Incorporarion and acceptahle performance of quality control check samples
Proper calibration of inshuments and equipment used
Completeness of documentation
Accuxate calculanon of report�d values
Traceability
Results of data yuality audits are reparteci to Management so that apprapriate action can be taken in the
event that proble�ns or deficiencies are encountered. Data audits and IO% QC checks are summarized in
rnonthly reports to management witH areas of unusual problems or exceptional irnprovement identified.
Technical Syste�n Audits
5ystem audits are performed to detexxnine if aIl aspects of the QA program are apsrational and to identify
where new QA practices may be needed or where portions of the prograrn may r�eed to be changed,
remaved, ar updated. The foltowing elements of the prograrr� are reviewed during a system audit:
Sarnple Handling (Custody, Storage, Preservation)

Correcti�e Actions are a`continual part of Certes' plar� for qualzty ass�ance. When errors, deficiencies,
or out-of-control situations deeelap, corrective action is taken and documented.
Qn-the-spot or immediat� action usually applies to spontaneous, or generally non-recurring problems,
sueh as an instrument malfunction ar unusual anajytical event. Long-term carrective action is used to
eliminate unsatisfactory conditions in order ta improv� overall data quality.
QC Chec�l�sts for Qn-�he-Spot Corrective Actions
Any staff inember who detects nan�canformance to previously established criteria or proaedures in
equipment, instruments, daia, methods, etc. shall immediately notify the Production Manager andlor
Technical Dirsctor. In many cases, the staff inember will l�e able �d correct the problem.
Documentation af on-the-spot corrective actions is accomplished through the use of an internal QC
Checklist �'orm (Figure 7a-7hj. The conc�;pt behind the QC Checklist is to allaw all personnel who
may �ncounter prablems with a particular job to document both the problems and the resalutions in a
manner whicY� allows for easy review and summation by project management and data review
personnel. From the QC Checklist, appropriate correative actions may be taken, such as reprep and/or
reanaiysis. A case narrative may then be generated for the batch af samples affected.
Once the first part of the form �ias been filled out by tha person encountering il�e problern, it must b�
reviewed by a person who is familiar with the analytical method to insur� adequate action has been
taken. Tf a log-in or sample-handling problem arises, the form should be given to the Operatio:t�
Manager. In cases where it zs necessary to contact iha customer, the farm should be given ia the
Technical Director. If there is arty unc�rtainty as to wha to give the QC Checklist to, it is given to the
Technieal Director.
Managers receiving QC Checklist forms are responsihle far resolving the pr�blem, for delegating the
responsibility for prohlem resolutian, and then ensuring that fhe pro�lem is resolved.
Once the pmblem has been resolved, the QC Checkiist is attached to the Quality Contral Summary
sl�eets and filed with the project falder.
Corrective Action Procedure
Any staff inember who detacts ar suspects a recurring ar unresolved quality assurance problem must
advise the Technicai Direcior andlor the President. The Director will notify the necessary personnel
and, if applicable, prepare a Nonconfartnance and Corrective Action Record (NC/CA) form (Figure 9).
NC/CA forms are also prepared when Daia, Sys�.ern, or Perfarmance Audits indicate the need for a
change in the laboratory aperating procedures.
The staff m�mb�r, ProdUctoin Manager, Technical Director, President and any other pertinent members
of management consult to determine a suitable eorrecti�e action plan whieh is then repor�ed on the
(NC/CA} farm. The corrective action is initiated, documented, and the results forwarded ta the
Technical Director who investigates the resolution. Foilow-up rrFay be required in sorne cases ta verify
the carrective action was effective in resolving the nonconformance.

APPEIiTI�I� DATE4 QUALITY ��JECTIVES
The following tables inctude objectives �or sensi�ivity, accuracy, and precisinn for the methods
rouiinety employed within the laboratory. References for the cited mefhads are included in �he
AnalyticaC Methodology section of this document under the Qualiry Assurance Plan i�eaciing.
Sensitivity Objectives
Sensitivity objectives are expr�ssed in terms af the laboratory's prac�ical quantitation limits for the
individual anaIytes within each method. Sensitivity ol�jectives for non-metal inarganic parameters
(conventional chemisiry or wet-chemistry �arameters} are bas�d upon the published scnsiti�ity limits
within the referenced methods. 4bjectives for metals are based upon Instrument Detection Limit (IDL)
studies andlor Method Deteciion Limit {MDL) studies.
Sansitivity objsctives for organic analytes are based upon th� Contract Required Quantitatian Limits
(CRQLs) specified in the latest publication of the EPA Contract Laboratory Program Statement of
Work for Organic Analyses {ILMO 4.1} for Valatile, Semivolatile, and Pesticide/PCB methods and the
Practical QuantitatiQn Limits (PQLs) s pecified i n t he a pplicable S W-846 r eference f or m ethods n ot
covered by the CLP Statement of Work.
The laboratory maintains the validity of its roufine reparting limits through perfozmance af periadic
MDL and IDL studies. Method Detection Limit (MDL) studies are conducted in accardance with th�
procednres and statistical methods specified in 40 CFR 136 Appen�ix B. IDL studies are perfarmed in
accordance with the pracedures and statistical meihods specified in the EPA CLP Statement of Work
for 1`narganic Artalyses (ILMO 4.1}. Note �hat t1�.e detection/reporting limits listed rnay not pertain to
all samples of a giver� matrix. Actual Iimits will da�e�d upon the nature af each specific sample. In
general, limits will be higher if dilution is required due to the presence of an interference or due to a
high lcvel of ane or more target analytes within the sample. DetectionlReporting Iimits are modifisd
on a periodic basis and may change without notice.
Accuracy
Expected acciaracy o bj ectives a re g iven i n t erms o f p ercent r ecovery o f e ach a nalyte f rom a s piked
matrix sample (MS), spiked bench sampl� (BS), or Laboratory Cont�ol Sample (LCS}. For non-metal
'rnorganic m�t�ods, percent recavery objectives are based upon �he precision and accuracy data
supplied within the published method. Objectives for metats are based upon the spike and LCS
acceptance criteria speci�ied in the latest publication of f,he EPA CLP Statement of Work for Inorganic
Analyses (ILM� 4.I} ar, for alements not included in the CLP Target Analyte List, o�jecti�es are based
upon recovery requirements specified in the referenced S W-846 method.
Accuracy abjectives for organic compounds are based upon the Precision and Accuracy Acceptance
Criteria specified in the referencec� SW-846 methods. Nate that not all target anatytes are spiked into
samples for cantrai purposes. Tnstead, a representative selection of targe� analytes is spik�d into
samples or blank matrices to pro�ide a batch-by-batch assessment af the recovery for the different
types of taxget cornpounds. FuII list (target analyt�s) spikes will be performed as required for contract
and project speciiic data quality objectives. Also note that "surrogate" compQunds - specially labeled
or synthetically produced compounds not expected to be present in environtnental samples - ar� spiked

into all samples during the extraction procedure to provide a measure of the extraction efficiency far
every single sample. Control limits for the selected spike compounds as w�ll as for surrogate
camgour�ds in the Volatile, Semivolatile, and Pesticide/PCB methods are based upon the acceptance
criteria speci�ed in the latest publication oFthe EPA Contract Labaratory Program (CLP) 5tatement of
Work for Organic Analyses (ILMO 4.1}, or, far non-CLP methods, cantral limits ar� based upan the
acceptance criteria listed in the referenced met�iod.
Precisiou
Expected precision objectives are given in terms of the maximum allowable relative percent difference
("RPD Cantrol") beiween duplicate samples, ma�rix spikes, blank spikes, ar Laboratory Cantrol
Samples. For con�entional chemistry methods, RPD objectives are based upan the precision and
aecuracy requirements speci�ed within the published method or upon default �alues nf f10% for water
samples and ±20% �ar soils. Objectives for metals are based upon the acceptance criteria speci�ed in
ihe latest puhlication af the EPA CLP Statement of Work for Inarganic Analyses (TLMO 3.Q} or, for
elements not included in the CLP Target Analytc List, objectives are based upan the precision criteria
specificd in the refereneed SW-846 method.
Preeisian objectives for organic compounds are based upon the Precision and Accuracy Aeceptance
Criteria specified in the referenced SW-8�6 methads, As noted above, not all target analytes are spiked
into samples For control purpases. Tnstead, a representati�e selection of target analytes is spiked into
samples o r b lank m atrices t o p ravide a b atch-by-batch a ssessment o f t he p recision fbr the different

CERTES ETHI�S P�LICY
Overview- Et�aics Stalement
"All e�nplayees at all times shaIl conduct �Ehemselves and the business of Certes Environ�nental
Laboratories in an hanest and ethical manner. Compliance with this policy shall be strictly enfarced."
The manar�ement of Certes Environmental Laboratories decided, before thev ever oaened the doors of the
business, that thev wanted to be]mawn in the industry as an ethical companv. We want our clients to
imow that thev can be canfident that vNhen thev �ive us their work, we wi11 praserve the inte�ritv nf t�e
sam�les thev leave in our care. Tt is our desire to operate this labaratazv in an ethical manner,
Having said the above, we request that each of aur employees read the sta�Eement below and sign that they
will perform their duties in accordance with this statement.
Ethics Cammunication
Ethics should be communicated often, vexbally and in writing, and by example. Laboratory staff should
cansider and discuss ethics, addressing any questions to the appropriate parties. Supervisors and
managers should be readily available to assist employees in managing prob�em situations, and they should
act ethicalIy at a11 times to set a good example. Corporate rnanagernent should frequently discuss their
commitment to ethics with their managers and employees. Ethics sho�ald be discussed at meetings and
other opportunities wheare employees axe present.
Zero Tolerance Poiicy
Certes Environmental Laborataries has a"Zera Tolerance Policy" on unethical activities, 5C1612�1f1C
misconduct and intentional lack of compliance with required procedures. Unethical behavior may be
defined as intentional falsification of data or reoords, such professional credentials, ernployrnent records,
timesheets, sampling or sample �ar�dling records, laboratory warksheets ar lagbooks, instruxnent settings
or data, sample results or data, and laboratory analysis reports. Intentional lack of compliance may be
def�ned as deliberate lack of adherence to compaxry and method reqUirernen#s, such as procedures for
instr�arnent calibra�ian, quality control, standard and reagent preparation, sample handling, sampie
preparatian and analysis, and data processing and reporting.
Employee Ethics and Data Integrity Agreemerat
I urtderstand that falsification and rniss-representation of data is considered fraudulent and is a very
serious matter. Fraudulent practices can result in arrest, fines and incarceration far individuals
responsible for these practices. Under no circumstances will I deviate from the approved Certes
Environmental Lahoratories procedure unIess allowed by the methodology specified in the approved
laboratory Standard Operation Procedure {SOP), under the laboratory's authority or direcf.ed hy the QA
Manager. Circumstances where deviation from normal procedures may occur include unusual saxnple
rna]rix, special analysis techniques specifed by the client, and quick site survey-only methods. In all
cases d eviations w ill b e d ocumented. T t i s better to he hanest with clients about probtems or absorb
penalties than to cheat atid commit fraud, which puts both our company, and possibly the pubIic safety, at
risk.

Unacceptable Lab Practices and Recommended Policy for Appropriaie Action
{Not to be considered all inclusive.)
��ac�eplaE�E� L,abvra�cxry f r�ct��e
L�b�ralvey PaEicy
Matcing up Data (Dry Labbing) or Other Ynformatian:
Creating data far an analysis that was not perFarmed or
creating info�mation that is nat tru�.
Analytical zesults for all samples and quality contral
(QC) must be based on actual analyses that were
performed. Documented data must match actual data.
Sampling information must be based on actual
sarnpling evsnks.
Misrepresentation of QC Samples and Spikes:
Misrepresenting QC samples or spikes as being digested
or extracted when in fact they were not actually digesied
or extracted. For example:
a) Adding su�rogates aiter sample ex�action rather tha�►
prior to sample extraCtion,
b) Reparting post-digested spikes ox duplicates as
predigested spikes ar duplicates.
c) Not preparing or analyzing method blanks and
labaratary control samples (LCSs} the same way that
samples are prepared or analyzed in order to make it
appear tt�at rnethod blank or LCS resuZts are
acccptable when in fact they may not be.
QC samples and spikes must be prepared, analyzed and
reported according to appropriate pracedvres.
a) Surrogates must be added priar ta sample
extraction.
b) Post-digestion spikes and duplicates must be
reportsd as post-dig$sted and must not be
misrepresented as pre-digesYion spikes and
duplicates.
c) Method blanks and T.CSs rnust be prepar�d and
analyzed the same way rhat samples are prepared
and analyzed
Any QC results outsidc of acceptance criteria m�ust be
reported as such; a case narraiive is recommended.
Improper Clock Sefting (Ti�ne Traveling) or
Iamproper Date/Time Recording:
Resetting the internal c lock o n an i nstrument t o rna�e it
appear that a sample(s) was analyzefl wit�in a specified
holding time wl�en in fact it was not. AltarnateIy,
changing the actual time or recardirtg a false time to m�ke
it appear that holding times were met, or changing the
times far sample collection, extractions ar other steps tv
make it appear they wexe performed at the conect time
when in fact they were not.
Improper Peak Integration (Peak Sfiavin$ or
Enhaacfng):
The recorded date and t ime o f c ollection, p reparatiqn
ar analysis must match the actual date and time that the
ac#ion was performsd. Documented dates and times
musi represent actual tiates and times. Sarnples
exceeding halcting times must be report�d se such; a
case narra#ive is recommended.
Arhificially subtracting ar adding peak area to produce an
erroneo�s area that forces data to meet spec�c QC
criteria when in fact the criteria were not met.
Instrument peaks must be consistenfly integrated and
reported according to praper techniques, generally
baseline to baseline, valley to valley or a cornbination
of the two. Peak area cannot be subtracted or added ta
farce data to meet spec�ed criteria. Preventi�e/
correcrive action must be taken or instrumeut data not
rneeting required criteria.
Unace�pta�le I�a�t��-�►�or.y �'ra�lice
Improper GCIM� Tuning:
Artificially manipulating GCIMS iunin� d ata t o p roduce
an ion abundance result that appears to meet specific QC
eriteria when in fact the criteria were not met.
Improper Alteration of Analytical Conditions:
Irnproperly altering analytical conditions, such as
ehanging the instrument conditions for sampie analyses
from thase used for s#andard analyses. Also using
different procedures to process standards data than those
used fnr samples.
Over-dilufion of Samples:
Intentipnaliy diluting a sample ta such an exient that no
analytes (target or non-target} are detected without
justification as to why the high dilution was made.
Improper Calibratian/QC Analysis:
a) Perfornung mul�iple (mozc than twa) calibrations or
QC runs {incSuding cali6rati�n verifications, LCSs,
spikes, duplicates and hlanks) until ane analysis barely
meets criteria, rati�er than taking needed preventivel
corrective aciion af�er the second failed a�alysis, and
not documenting or retaining data for the other
unacceptahle data.
b} Usi�g the incorrect (previous) initzal ealibration to
make calibration verification data appear to be
acceptable when in fact it was not acceptable when
compared to the correct initial calibration.
e) Discarding points in the initial calibration ta force the
calibration ta meet aa► acceptance criteria.
d) Discarding paints from an MDL study to force the
calcuiated MDL to be l�gher or lawer than the actual
value,
l.al�oF;��ory �o�icy
GC/MS tuning data rnust be generated and reported
according to proper techniques without manipulation to
the peak or mass specfrum. Preventivelcorrective
action must be taken on data not rrseeting requ'vred
criteria.
Ai1 sample anaIyses xnust be performed under the sanne
conditians as those used for standard analyses. Any
alkeratians of anaiytical conditians must be allowabl�e
und�r the method requirements. All standards data
must be processed hy the same procedures as those
used for processing satnple �ata.
DiZutions must be mada on a reasonable basis, such as
high cancentrations of target or non target anelytes,
matrix interferences, oily samples, and other
components in the sample that couId harm �he
inst.rument. IncSude detaiis an the reason far ihe
dilution in a case narrative.
a) Ail calibratian and QC data associated with sample
analyses must be documented. Pre�entive/
c4rrective a ction must b e taken and documented if
calibration and/or other QC criteria are not met.
b) Acceptance of calibration verification data must be
based an the correct initial calibration.
c) Calihration points can only be rejected for inclusion
in the calibraiion ctirve if a known error was made
or if a statistical evaluation indicates that a point can
be discarded. When multiple target analytes are
included in each calibration standard, it may be
necessary to diseard selected upper or lower points
for individual target analytes. Points can be
discarded at the upper end of the curve if the linear
range af the detector has been exceeded. Fnr these
cases, dilute samples t�at exceed ihe highest point
of tbe calibrafion cuxve. Poznts can be discarded at
t1�e lower enci of the curve i£ the detector is not
produeing a response. �or these cases, the
labaratory-reporting limit must be adjusted
accvrdingly.
d} Data points for NIDL studies can only be rejected
for incIusion in the NIDL calculation if a knawn
errar was made or if a statistical evaluation indicates
that a point can be discarded.

Laboratory Reporfs, Deliverables and Electronac Formats
One unique capabiiity of Certes resic�es with aur Information Management Team. We are able to
offer the end user several customized %rmatting Qptions to facilitate the usability at�d appiicatian
of oUr data for the in�ended application. Along with our star�dard reporking format, we pro�ide
two additional new farmatting apti.ans. The first is our TRRP 13 Repart which represents data
according to the guidetines set forth in the Texas Natural Resource Canservation Commission
(TNRCC} requirements. This package incorparates all the necessary reporting limi�s (PCLs
released March 2002), qualif ers and statements to be campliant with TRRP 13. Wc can pravide
the user with Labaratory Review Checklists (LRC}, if required for a pariicular project. We hava
campleted aver 150 projects to date �nder these guidelines and have generated numerous
packages containing th� LRC-"S" list of Supporting Data. The second is our Access� Database
query format that filters tl�e data against PLCs listed in TRRP. Featuxes included in the query
allow the data user to specify 0.5 or 30 acre criteria, comparisan #o Residential, Commercial or
batli PCL �alues, and to tt�rn on ar off each of the pathways of concern, Tbe �nal report
repre�ents only the �ata values for the samples that exceed th.e user defined lunits and any
associated data qualifiers, This report draniatically reduces the level of effort far the end user.
Ir� addition to the reports listed, Cert�es can provide data in standard Excel� Electronic Data
Deliverables (EDD),
The fallowing Iist of reports are cvntained in the �nd aitl�is section for your review:
Standard Laboratory Report, including Quality Control
TRRP13 Compliant Repart
TRRP Database Query Report
