1.0 MANAGEMENT COMMITMENT AND ORGANIZATION
1.1 Statement of Management
Position on Quality
IT Corporation (IT) is committed to
providing quality services for environmental
management; services which meet the needs
of our clients, satisfy regulatory
requirements, and are commensurate with
the current state of the art. To satisfy our
clients' quality objectives, to meet
regulatory requirements, and to comply
with IT corporate-wide requirements, IT
Analytical Services (ITAS) Division has
adopted a comprehensive Quality Assurance
(QA) Program. The principles and practices
of the Program apply to every Associate at
every level within ITAS; they are
fundamental to the way we do business and
to the services we provide.
The Quality Assurance Management Plan
(( MP) is an overall statement of Program
policy. This Plan provides guidance to
ITS Associates in fulfilling their
responsibilities and serves as a statement to
external parties of ITAS' commitment to
quality.
The ITAS QAMP recognizes that some QA
activities must be detailed and adopted on
an operation-specific basis. To document
individual laboratory QA practices, the
ITAS QAMP requires the preparation of
ITAS Operation-Specific QAMP

this Operation-Specific QAMvIP.
Implementation of the QA Program is the
responsibility of all ITAS Associates.
Management at every level has the
commitment, duty, and authority to lead the
development and implementation of a
structured management system that provides
the framework to support the QA Program.
Management will assure that the principles
and practices of the QA Program are
implemented and followed.
A Quality Assurance/Quality Control
Coordinator (QA/QCC) is assigned to each
ITAS operating unit to verify that the QA
Program is implemented as intended by the
Associates performing the work on a daily
basis. The QA/QCC has the authority and
duty to stop work if and when necessary to
satisfy QA Program requireinents.
To verify that the QAr Program is
successfully implemented at each ITAS
operating unit, independent assessments are
directed or conducted by the Division
Director, Quality Assurance/Quality
Control. In addition, operating units are
subject to assessments by the Vice
President, Quality and Health Services, and
by various regulatory authorities and other

difference!" Juran, 1974
2.2 Objectives of the QA Program
The overall objective of the QA Program
for ITAS operations is to provide data of
known quality that meet client
requirements. In general, to accomplish
this, each laboratory must.
* Maintain an effective, ongoing QC
Program to measure and verify
laboratory performance
. Meet data requirements for accuracy,
precision, and completeness through the
use of proven methodologies
- Provide sufficient flexibility to allow
controlled changes in routine
methodology to meet specific data
requirements
* Monitor operational performance of the
laboratory on a routine basis and
provide corrective action as needed
- Recognize and promptly correct for any

factors which adversely affect quality

- Maintain complete records from sample

submittal through laboratory analysis,
data verification, reporting, and sample
disposal

In order to meet these objectives, two levels

of management controls are required.
Controls at the organizational level include
alf activities that support common or
standardized functions such as Associate
qualifications and training, document
control, and material procurement. Controls
at a project level consist of the project-
specific QA program activities necessary to
produce the desired type and quality of
product.

2.3 Quality Assurance Documents

Table 2.3-1 summarizes the ITAS QA
documents, the purpose of each, and the
required approvals for each. Document
control, distribution, and revision is
discussed in Section 5.

laboratory services (quality related items)
shall be subject to the more rigorous
controls below.
For the procurement of test and measuring
equipment it is recognized that the
environment in which the measurement
system is placed may have a bearing on its
performance. Therefore, the QA/QCC may
substitute an acceptance testing plan to
assure that the measurement system is able
to meet specifications in the laboratory
environment, in lieu of other supplier
qualification activities.
4.2 Procurement of Quality Related
Items
The quality of instruments, equipment,
standards, reagents, solvents, other
chemicals, gases, water, and laboratory
containers used in analyses must be known
so that their effect upon analytical results
can be defined. Items purchased by an
ITAS operating unit shall meet the
requirements and specifications of client

subcontract laboratory will be used only in
the event that an ITAS laboratory does not
have the capability or capacity to perform
the requested testing, or the customer so
directs (in which case the customer then
assumes responsibility for subcontractor
performance). A subcontract laboratory
will be used only after approval is obtained
from the client and the quality of the
laboratory is determined to be acceptable by
ITAS QA/QC staff.
Once it is determined that a subcontract
laboratory is required and approval is
obtained from the client to use a laboratory
external to the ITAS network, the QA/QCC
must perform a quality systems audit of the
selected subcontract laboratory. This audit
must be approved by the Division Director,
QA/QC and documented in both the
Quality/Operations records at the laboratory
and-in-division subcontract laboratory files.

5.0 DOCUMENT CONTROL AND RECORDS
ITAS has designed and implemented a
system to control, distribute, and revise
documents affecting quality. These
documents are approved by the appropriate
positions (see Table 2.3-1). Controlled
documents are required to be reviewed and
revised, if necessary, on a scheduled basis.
The frequency of this review is dependent
on regulations and client requirements, but
it should occur at least annually. Interim
changes to controlled documents may be
instituted by the use of a Procedure Change
Form (example shown in Figure 5.0-1).
Procedure Change Forms require the
approval of the laboratory QA/QCC, the
Operating Unit Director, and the Division
Director, QA/QC. Procedure Change
Forms _remain in effect until the. next
revision of the document. They are
despribed in the ITAS System Procedure
No. 8906-QAC-03, "Standard Operating
Prepdure- for Preparation and Control of
Prodedurcs and Manuals". Controlled
documents include but are not limited to
this Operation-Specific QAMP, the ITAS
QAMP, SOPs, and internally-generated
QAPjPs and QAPPs.
5.1 Quality Assurance
Management Plan (QAMP)
The ITAS QAMP provides ITAS Quality
Assurance policy. It is applicable to and
ITAS Operation-Specific QAMP
Section No. 5.0

Revision No. 0
Date Revised: N/A

provides direction for all ITAS operations.
The Plan discusses both the administrative
and technical aspects of Quality Assurance
and Quality Control. It is not however,
intended that the Plan provide in-depth
technical discussion. The Operation-Specific
QAMP and SOPs supplement the ITAS
QAMP to provide the details of
implementation. The QAMP has
precedence in policy matters over all other
ITAS quality-related documents.
5.2 Operation-Specific QAMP
(OS-QAMP)
The OS-QAMP supplements and enhances
the ITAS-QAMP (Section 5.1). While the
ITAS-QAMP serves as an over-view
document and provides ITAS QA policy,
the OS-QAMP further provides detailed
technical discussions and information that is
common to all ITAS operating units. An
appendix for each operating unit
supplements the OS-QAMfP. Each
appendix contains information that is
specific to that operating unit only.
5.3 Manuals of Practice (MOP)
MOPs are developed to provide in-depth
technical discussions of specific topics. For
example, a MOP for the field collection,
preservation, and shipment of samples to
ITAS laboratories provides specific uniform

direction to IT Associates. The ITAS
Chemical Hygiene Plan and Safety Manual
are also considered MOPs. MOPs are
usable across ITAS operations.
5.4 Standard Operating
Procedures (SOPs)
SOPs are the foundation of the documented
QA Program within ITAS. There are two
levels of SOPs, division and operation-
specific. Division SOPs specify methods
that are common to all operating units and
are standard across the network. Operation-
specific SOPs detail procedures that pertain
to a particular operating unit. All SOPs are
written, detailed instructions describing
specific laboratory operations and
performance of routine laboratory tasks.
They specify what is done, whose
responsibility it is to perform tasks, and
whose responsibility it is to verify their
correctness. SOPs are sufficiently detailed
to-provide data of acceptable quality and
integrity with a minimum loss of data due
to put-of-control situations. They also
proVide for documentation to record the
performance of all tasks and their results,
and demonstrate the verification of the data
each time the data are recorded, calculated,
or transcribed. SOPs are written to address
the major elements upon which analytical
quality depends. ITAS has adopted a
standard SOP format for use within the
Division. The ITAS standard format for
administrative SOPs is shown in Figure 5.4-

5.5 Quality Assurance Project
Plans (QAPjP)
Contractual and regulatory demands, or
uniqueness of the scope of work of a
project, may require the preparation and
implementation of a project-specific QAPJP
or QAPP. If a specific project requires a
unique QA program, that program with full
documentation must be provided to the
ITAS operation for implementation. Full
documentation will be provided in a
QAPjP. The requirements of the project
will take precedence over conventional
ITAS QA practices for that work. The
requirements of the project may not be less
stringent than minimum ITAS QA/QC
requirements unless requested by the client
in writing or approved by the ITAS
Division Director, QA/QC. Typical project
requirements are as follows-
- The development and/orase of new or
modified testing methods
. Special requirements for equipment
calibration and maintenance
. Specific contract required detection
limits (CRDLs)
. Defined data quality objectives (DQOs)
such as accuracy and precision limits or
the statistical treatment of data

Quality/Operations records are permanent
(lifetime) documents which demonstrate
overall laboratory operation, such as
instrument logbooks, calibration data, and
control charts. These records will directly
affect the data for a specific project, but in

6.0 USE OF COMPUTER HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE
The purpose of defining controls for
computer hardware and software is to
protect the integrity of computer-resident
data in the laboratory. SOPs are in place in
each location so that computer resident data
are accurate and defensible. The following
references shall be used as guidance for
implementation of this system of controls:
* Good Automated Laboratory Practices,
US Environmental Protection Agency,
(draft), December 28, 1990
. Oualitv Management and Oualitv
Assurance Standards ISO 9000, Part 3:

in accordance with manufacturer's
recommendations and undergo validation
which demonstrates the computer
equipment correctly performs its stated
capabilities and functions. Changes to
computer hardware shall be made only after
review and approval of the LIMS Manager
and Laboratory Director. -
Computer hardware shall be inspected,
cleaned, and maintained on a regular basis
at a minimum of annually. Each laboratory
shall:
. Have SOPs for the maintenance and
security of hardware
* Designate an Associate (usually the
LIMS Manager) to be responsible for

6.2 Security
Each operating unit shall heve procedures
in place which secure computer hardware
and software systems if that system:
* Contains confidential information that
requires protection from unauthorized
disclosure
* Contains data in which the integrity
must be protected against unintentional
error or intentional fraud

* Is used to acquire, process, or report
data
When the computer system(s) contains data
that must be secured, each operating unit
shall ensure the system is physically
secured. Physical and functional access to
the system is limited to authorized
Associates and introduction of unauthorized
externml programs or software is prohibited.
The LIMs Manager, or designee, is
responsible for maintaining a list of secure,
licensed software, and software not on that
list is considered unauthorized.
All original software must be stored in a
locked, secure area.
6.3 Use of Software
If computer software is used to acquire,
process, or report client data, it is necessary
to demonstrate that the software correctly
perfrms its intended function. The
following Jefinitions are important to this
discussion:
Validation - establishing documented
evidence which provides a high degree
of assurance that a specific process will
consistently produce a product meeting
its predetermined specifications and
quality attributes. This process
demonstrates that the mathematical or
statistical model embodied in the
computer program is an acceptable
representation of the process or system

(
for which it is intended and meets all
specified requirements.
Verification - the process of checking
the accuracy of manually or
automatically (electronically) entered
information.
In general, software is verified by
comparing its performance against known
results. Verification may be done in
several ways (see Sections 6.3.1 and 6.3.2).
Each operating unit shall have a software
SOP(s) describing the following:
. Software verification and validation
. Data entry and verification
- Changing data
* Data analysis, processing, storage and
retrieval
* Backup and recovery of data and
software
* Electronic reporting of data
- Definition and storage dines for data
and software
6.3.1 Industry Standard Software
Industry standard programs are defined as
programs which are widely used throughout
the profession. These standard programs
are brought into ITAS and used without
modification. If the program has been
prepared external to IT, independent
validation is not required. However, the

program must be verified prior to first use
on an ITAS system. To verify the software,
example problems must be processed to
demonstrate that the program is fully
operational. Example problems must fully
test the utilized capabilities of the software.
6.3.2 ITAS Developed Software
For piograms developed within ITAS and
externally prepared programs which are
modified by ITAS, complete validation and
verification must be performed. Validation
must be performed in accordance with an
approved reference (Section 6.0) and IT
Standard Quality Practice, ITCOOlO
"Software Development and Usage". The
verification process is dependent upon the
function of the software and should include:
For software which only performs
numerical manipulation, sample sets of
numbers for which results are known
should be processed and compared. In
Mhis case, known results are usually
generated by performing hand
pilculations using the same equations
and procedures as the software.
Verification of the software must test
the software production of the intended
results. Problems must test both the
theory, or basis for computation, and the
ability of the software to store and
manage data.
Software which performs as part of
instrument operation should be verified
by processing reference materials
through the instrument system.
Processed instrument response shall be

Verification shall be performed
annually, at a minimum.
6.3.3 Control of Software Changes
Changes to software shall be controlled.
Detailed software control procedures must
be available in each ITAS laboratory.
Standard forms are used to document and
track changes. An ITAS Associate in each
laboratory must be assigned to maintain
software control, usually the LIMS
Manager or programmer. Whenever a
program is changed, reverification is
necessary. If the software has had features
added, previous test problems should be
rerun to demonstrate their function has not
been affected. New test problems should
be processed as discussed above to verify
added performance. If software revision
changes the basic operation of the program,
complete revalidation and reverification of
the program is required. All changes must
be completely documented. -

"Effect" must be determined on a case-by-
case basis for the scope and impact of
incorrectly reported results. If necessary,
the data shall be reprocessed and recipients
of affected data reports notified. Software
programs must be validated upon creation
or change and verified annually.
6.3.5 Software Validation and
Verification Documentation
Software validation and verification shall be
documented by the Associate performing
the work, by signing and dating in indelible
ink the computer output and supporting
calculations. When test problems are used,
the input shall be marked to indicate correct
usage and the output checked to indicate
acceptable comparison. If reference
materials are used as the basis for
validating and verifying insttument
software, the "true" values or certificates for
thtmaterials shall be included with the
output to demonstrate performance. The
veplcatio-n documentation must be
reviewed and approved by the Associate's

ITAS operating units shall employ the use
of anti-virus software to detect and remove
viruses from secure computer hardware.
Any suspicion of a software virus must be
immediately reported to the LIMS Manager,
the Division Technical Director, and the

7.0 WORK PROCESSES AND OPERATIONS
Much of the environmental project activity
is planned and designed external to the
laboratory or field operation and presented
in the form of a contract, work plan, or
QAPjP. Laboratory and field activities are
planned, implemented, and assessed to meet
client requirements according to approved
procedures and methodologies. Many QA
systems have been put in place to document
the implementation of planned activities.
The planning and design of operational
to accomplish documented
systems
implementation are detailed in operation-
specific SOPs. The entire process is
assessed on a regular basis for conformance
to prescribed requirements.
7.1 Standard Operating
Procedures
SOPs are in place in all ITAS operating
units for analytical and administrative
procedures from the receipt of samples in
the laboratory through analysis, reporting,
and subsequent sample disposal. This
includes auxiliary functions as well, such as
training, QA/QC, and Health and Safety
procedures. The ITAS standard SOP
formats are shown in Figure 5.4-1
(administrative) and Figure 5.4-2
(technical). A list of ITAS operating unit
SOPs is given in Appendix Section 3.

ITAS operations prepare and maintain, in
addition to the Operation-Specific QAMP,
a Standard Operating Procedure Manual.
The requirements of this OS QAMP for
activities such as calibration, field
procedures, material procurement and
control, preventive maintenance, training,
and QC sample analysis shall be
incorporated into the SOPs as appropriate.
7.2 Analytical Methods
Whenever possible, ITAS operations utilize
industry and regulatory agency recognized
analytical methods from source documents
published by agencies such as the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency
(USEPA), American Society for Testing
and Materials (ASTM), and the National
Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH). Analytical methods used by
each ITAS operation are listed in Appendix
Section 4.
7.3 Detection Limits
All chemical analytical methodologies have
an associated detection limit below which
an analyte present in the sample cannot be
accurately determined. A detection limit
value may be reported in one of three ways:
. As a less than (<) value
- As not detected (ND)

to accomplish this. Figure 8.1-1 shows the
Analysis Request/Chain-of-Custody
(AR/COC) form that is used by the ITAS
laboratory network.
Field personnel are responsible for initiating
the AR/COC form. In addition, they are
responsible for uniquely identifying and
labeling samples, providing proper sample
preservation, and packaging samples to
preclude breakage during shipment.
The prompt shipment of samples to the
laboratory is required to ensure that
required holding times are met. Samples
should be shipped by an overnight carrier,
be hand-delivered, or transported in a
manner that assures prompt delivery to the
laboratory.
Some sites require an extensive radioactive
screening process before a sample may be
shipped. In these cases, it is imperative for
the project manager to maintain good
communications with the client to assure
proper staffing of the laboratory in response
to a decreased holding time.
Radioactive samples that are shipped to
ITAS operations must be screened and
found not to contain radioactivity that
exceeds the level stated in the operation
license of the laboratory. Samples received

will immediately be returned to the project
site.
8.2 Sample Containers, Shipping
Containers, Preservatives, and
Holding Times
8.2.1 Sample Containers
A sample container is defined as the sealed
enclosure, usually made of borosilicate
glass or plastic, that the sample is collected
in and stored in until analysis. All sample
bottles provided by ITAS operations for
environmental sampling are purchased new
and are certified precleaned following
appropriate USEPA procedures by the
manufacturer. The bottles to be supplied
for inorganic analyses are listed in Table
8.2-1. The bottles to be supplied for
organic analyses are listed in Table 8.2-2.
Radiological sample bottles are listed in
Table 8.2-3. All documentation certifying
bottle cleanliness must be maintained in the
operation's Quality/Operation files.
8.2.2 Shipping Containers
Shipping containers are defined as the
sealed enclosure in which the sample
containers are stored during shipment from
the sample collection site to the analytical
laboratory. Shipping containers must be of
sufficient number and size to accommodate
the samples in an upright condition.
Shipping containers must also meet all
Department of Transportation (DOT),

International Air Transportation Association
(IATA), International Civil Aviation
Organization (ICAO), United Nations (UN),
USEPA, and Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) requirements for the
shipment of environmental and/or
radioactive samples.
Packaged samples must be shipped to the
analytical laboratory in a safe manner that
preserves the integrity of the samples. The
most common method of sample shipment
employs coolers or ice chests that are
sealed with custody tape and shipping tape.
These coolers must be durable and resistant
to crushing during shipment. All coolers
must be well maintained and cleaned to
prevent cross contamination of the samples.
It is the ultimate responsibility of the
person collecting and packaging the sample
for shipment to ensure that the shipping
containers are clean and functional. To
help prevent sample breakage during
shipment, additional consideration must be
given to providing shock absorbency to all
samples packaged inside the shipping
container. Use of bubble-wrap around each
sample container is the best way to provide
this protection, followed by foam packing
materials and vermiculite which are also
commonly used.
8.2.3 Sample Preservatives
Most analytes have a finite holding time in
ITAS Operation-Specific QAMP

Page 53 of 246
a given sample matrix. Sample
preservation is - the chemical or physical
means by which samples are treated during
and/or following sample collection to aid in
the stability of the analytes of interest for a
given sample matrix. The preservation of
samples at the time of sample collection
will follow the requirements of the
analytical methods used. This preservation
includes the addition of reagents to deter
chemical degradation and the maintenance
of refrigeration during transit and ultimate
storage in the laboratory. The required
preservatives for the analysis to be
performed on each matrix are included in
Table 8.2-1 for all inorganic analyses and
Table 8.2-2 for all organic analyses.
Radiological sample preservatives are listed
in Table 8.2-3.
8.2.4 Sample Holding Times
Holding time is defined as the maximum
allowable time between sample collection
(or laboratory receipt for CLP) and
extraction or analysis. ITAS has developed
a commitment to meeting sample holding
times that extends throughout each ITAS
operating unit. Each operation has a
system in place to ensure that holding times
are monitored by each group within the
operating unit It is the responsibility of
each ITAS Associate processing the sample
to assure that holding times are met. ITAS
laboratories are responsible for meeting all

holding times for samples received within
24 hours of collection.
The holding times for inorganic analyses
are listed in Table 8.2-1. The holding times
for organic analyses are listed in Table 8.2-
2. Radiological sample holding times are
listed in Table 8.2-3.
8.2.5 Turnaround-Time (TAT)
TAT is defined as the maximum number of
days from sample collection to the date
Certificates of Analysis or other
deliverables are received by the client.
Sample collection personnel must be aware
of the holding time and TAT requirements
so that they can determine the best method
of sample transport and can communicate
that information to the laboratory Project
Manager.
8.3 Sample Receipt and Initiation
of Testing Program
Each ITAS laboratory has a SOP describing
this program in detail. The following
sections describe the general program
followed by all ITAS operating units.
8.3.1 Sample Receipt
Samples shall be received and logged in at
ITAS operations by a designated sample
custodian or properly trained designee back-
up. Upon sample receipt, the sample
custodian shall, as appropriate:

Page 54 of 246
Wear appropriate personal protective
equipment (PPE). At a minimum, this
consists of gloves, a lab coat, safety
glasses, and in some cases a respirator
* Examine the shipping containers to
verify that the custody tape is intact
- Examine all sample containers and
determine if the temperature required by
the requested testing program (normally
40 C ± 2*C) has been maintained during
shipment. Document shipping container
temperature on the AR/COC
- Examine all sample -containers for
damage
- Compare samples received against those
listed on the AR/COC
- Verify that sample holding times have
not been exceeded
* Examine all sample paperwork for
correctness and completeness
- Determine sample pH (if required for
the scheduled analysis) and record on
the AR/COC
- Sign and date the AR/COC immediately
(only after shipment is accepted) and
attach the waybill
* Note any problems associated with the
samples on the AR/COC, immediately
initiate a Condition Upon Receipt
Variance Report (CUR), and notify the
Project Manager who in turn notifies the
client
- Attach appropriate laboratory sample
container labels with laboratory ID, test,
and preservative information

. Place the samples in proper laboratory
storage
8.3.2 Sample Log-in
Sample log-in activities at ITAS operating
units are fully documented in operation-
specific SOPs. The following is a general
description of the log-in process:
* Enter the samples in the laboratory
sample log-in book, and/or the sample
management computer system (LIMS)
which contains the following
information at a minimum:
* Project identification number
. Sample numbers (both client and
laboratory)
. Type of samples
* Required tests
* Date received in laboratory
* Notify the Project Manager and
appropriate Group Leader(s) of sample
arrival
. Place the completed AR/COCs,
waybills, and any additional
documentation in the project file
8.3.3 Sample Storage
The primary considerations for sample
storage are:
* Maintenance at prescribed temperature,
if required, which is typically 40 C ± 2*C
ITAS Operation-Specific QAMP
Section No.: 8.0
Date Initiated: September 1. 1993
Revision No.: 0
Date Revised: N/A
Page 55 of 246
Processing samples within the prescribed
holding time for the parameters of
interest
Maintenance of sample integrity through
adequate protection from contamination
from outside sources or from cross-
contamination of samples. Low-level
and high-level samples, when known,
must be stored separately. When
applicable, samples and standards must
be stored in separate refrigerators or
freezers.
The requirements listed on Tables 8.2-1,
8.2-2, and 8.2-3 for temperatures and
holding times shall be used. Placing of
samples in the proper storage environment
is the responsibility of sample control
personnel who shall notify the Operations
Manager and Group Leaders if there are
any samples which must be analyzed
immediately because of holding time
requirements.
8.3.4 Internal Sample
Chain-of-Custody
Internal sample custody is tracked and
documented in ITAS laboratories as
described in operation-specific SOPs. The
sample custody documentation shall
include, but is not limited to the following:
. Signatures for relinquishing and
receiving samples or sample extracts
* Listing of all procedures (sample
preparation and analysis) performed on
the sample and sample extract

* Laboratory and project identification
. Sample matrix
* Laboratory sample numbers
8.3.5 Sample Disposal and Return
Chain-of-Custody
After the requested analyses on the samples
have been completed, any remaining
portions of the samples will be maintained
by the sample custodian until the samples
are disposed of or returned to the client.
The disposal of each sample is recorded on
the client's Chain-of-Custody (COC) form
or referenced in the project file. Sample
disposal procedures and documentation are
described in operation-specific SOPs.
For NRC or state licensed laboratories, a
real time inventory of all radioactive
isotopes contained in the laboratory
(including radioactive samples), as required
by the NRC or state, is maintained by the
Radiation Safety Officer (RSO). If the
quantities of radioactive materials in-house
approach the limits of the laboratory NRC
license, appropriate action will be taken to
ensure the license is not exceeded. This
may involve returning samples to clients
immediately.
The original copy of the client's COC form
will be maintained in the appropriate
laboratory project file unless the entire
sample is physically transferred off-site. In
ITAS Operation-Specific QAMP
Section No.: 8.0

Page 56 of 246
that case, the original COC record will be
signed off as relinquished by the sample
custodian or designee and will accompany
the sample in shipment. A copy of the
completed COC form will be retained in the
laboratory project file. In the case where
an aliquot of a sample is shipped from the
laboratory, a new COC will be generated
by the laboratory and shipped with the
sample aliquot and the original COC will
be retained in the project file.
8.4 Calibration Procedures and
Criteria
8.4.1 Calibration System
All equipment and instruments used at
ITAS operations for quantitative
measurements are controlled by a formal
calibration program. Two types of
calibration are discussed in this section.
These are operational and periodic
calibrations. Operational and periodic
calibration procedures are described in
operation-specific SOPs. At a minimum,
these procedures shall include:
* Equipment to be calibrated
- Reference standards used for calibration
- Calibration technique and sequential
actions
- Acceptable performance tolerances
- Frequency of calibration

* Calibration documentation requirements
Whenever possible, recognized procedures,
such as those published by ASTM or the
USEPA, or procedures provided by
manufacturers shall be adopted. If
established procedures are not available, a
procedure shall be developed considering
the - type of equipment, stability
characteristics of the equipment, required
accuracy, and the effect of operational error
on the quantities measured.
8.4.2 Reference Standards
Two types of reference standards are used
within ITAS operations for calibration:
physical reference standards and chemical
reference standards.
8.4.2.1 Physical Reference
Standards
Physical reference standards include
weights for calibrating balances and
certified thermometers for calibrating
working thermometers. These are generally
associated with periodic calibrations.
Whenever possible, physical reference
standards shall have known relationships to
nationally recognized standards such as the
National Institute of Standards Technology
(NIST), formerly the National Bureau of
Standards (NBS). If national standards do
not exist, the basis for the reference
standard shall be documented.

Revision No.: 0
Date Revised: N/A
Page 57 of 246
Physical reference standards shall be used
only for calibration. procedures and shall be
stored separately from equipment used for
analysis.
8.4.2.2 Chemical Reference
Standards
These standards are generally associated
with operational calibration. Chemical
reference standards include Standard
Reference Materials (SRMs) provided by
NIST, the USEPA, or other recognized
standards agency. This may include
vendor-certified materials traceable to NIST
or USEPA SRMs. Radioactive reference
materials are discussed in Section 4.2.3.
8.4.2.3 Standard Verification
Standard verification is performed at all
ITAS laboratories by comparison of a
standard with a SRM or second-source
standard. For chemical analyses, ITAS
operating units shall use purchased standard
mixes, when possible, from two different
sources. The response factors of the two
shall be compared. Neat standards shall be
used only when standard mixes are not
available. If only one standard source is
available, the laboratory shall have two
different analysts prepare the stock solution
and dilutions of the stock solution. The
laboratory shall then compare the response
factors of these two separately prepared
standards. In the rare cases, such as dioxin
standards where costs are significant, new

standards shall be compared to previous
standards for verification. Operation-
specific SOPs shall define the specific
requirements and process of standard
preparation and verification.
8.4.3 Operational Calibration
Operational calibration is routinely
performed as part of instrument usage, such
as the development of a standard calibration
curve. Operational calibration is generally
performed for instrument systems.
A summary of the various operational
calibrations performed at ITAS operations
is shown in Tables 8.4-1 for inorganic
method calibrations, and 8.4-2 for organic
method calibrations.
8.4.4 Periodic Calibration
Periodic calibration is performed at
prescribed intervals. In general, equipment
which can be calibrated periodically is a
distinct, singular purpose unit and is
relatively stable in performance. ITAS
operations perform this type of calibration
on balances, micropipettors, and
thermometers.
Each ITAS operating unit has SOPs in
place for the calibration of equipment
requiring periodic calibration. Periodic
equipment calibrations employed at ITAS
operations are listed along with their
[TAS Operation-Specific QAMP
Section No.: 8.0

Revision No.: 0
Date Revised: N/A
Page 58 of 246
*respective calibration criteria in Table 8.4-3.
8.4.5 Calibration Failure
Equipment that fails calibration or becomes
inoperable during use shall be removed
from service and segregated to prevent
inadvertent use, or shall be tagged to
indicate it is out of calibration. Such
equipment shall be repaired and recalibrated
before reuse.
Recalibration may occur more frequently
than scheduled. At any time, if equipment
calibration becomes suspect, it shall
undergo a calibration check to determine
whether the current calibration is still
acceptable or if recalibration is required.
8.4.6 Calibration Records
Calibration records shall be prepared for
each piece of equipment subject to
calibration and shall be maintained
according to operation-specific SOPs.
All calibration records (operational and
periodic) directly affect data and may not
be limited to one project. These records
shall be stored in the operating unit
Quality/Operations files unless it is required
for a project that they be stored in the
project file.
8.5 QC Sample Analysis
QC samples are routinely added to the

8.5.2 Field QC Samples
When field QC sample collection and
analysis are required for a project, it is the
responsibility of the project sampling
supervisor to ensure that this sampling is
performed correctly and at the project-
required frequencies. Field QC samples
may or may not be identified as such to the
laboratory and will undergo sample
preparation and analysis procedures
identical to the actual field samples. Field
QC sample results are reported in the
Certificate of Analysis or other project-
required deliverable. The results are stored
in the project file with which they are
associated.
Field QC sample types, applicability to
organic and inorganic analyses, precision
and accuracy applications, and persons they
are introduced by are summarized in Table
8.5-3. The following sections provide
descriptions of field QC samples.
8.5.2.1 Trip (Travel) Blank (TB)
Volatile organics samples are susceptible to
contamination by diffusion of organic
contaminants through the Teflon-lined,
silicone, rubber septum of the sample vial.
Therefore, Trip Blanks, also referred to as
Travel Blanks, shall be analyzed to monitor
for possible sample contamination during
shipment. TBs will be prepared by filling
two VOA vials (40 ml) with organic-free

* water and shipping the blanks with the field
kit. TBs accompany the sample bottles
during collection and shipment to the
laboratory and are stored with the samples.
8.5.2.2 Field Blank (FB)
A FB is a volume of water (or soil) that is
provided by the sample collectors to
demonstrate the absence of contamination
during sampling. Deionized, distilled
laboratory water, or previously-prepared
solid materials (i.e. lab sand) is placed into
sample containers by the sample collection
crew, packaged, and shipped with the other
field samples.
8.5.2.3 Rinsate Blank
A rinsate blank is a volume of rinse
solution (deionized, distilled lab water or
organic solvent) used to rinse a sampling
tool which contacts multiple samples. The
rinse solution is collected after the tool has
collected a sample and has been cleaned, to
demonstrate that there is no residual
contamination remaining on the tool to
carry over into the next sample.
8.5.2.4 Field Duplicate (FD)
A FD sample is a duplicate sample which
has been introduced as a separate sample by
the sample collection personnel. Results of
FD samples provide a measure of field
precision.

8.5.3 Laboratory QC Samples
Laboratory QC samples, when successfully
aialy-zed, demonstrate that the functions
which are under laboratory control are
within acceptable limits. Any laboratory
QC sample results that are outside of
acceptable limits must be documented on a
nonconformance memo. Laboratory QC
sample types, applicability to organic and
inorganic analyses, precision and accuracy
applications, and persons they are
introduced by are summarized in Table 8.5-
4. In addition, Tables 8.5.1 (inorganic) and
8.5-2 (organic) list laboratory QC samples,
acceptance criteria, and corrective actions
per analytical method. The following
sections provide descriptions of laboratory
QC samples.
8.5.3.1 Method Blank (MB)
A MB is a volume of deionized, distilled
laboratory water for water samples, or a
purified solid matrix for soil/sediment
samples carried through the entire analytical
procedure. The volume or weight of the
blank must be approximately equal to the
sample volume or sample weight processed.
A MB shall be performed with each group

of samples. Anajysis of the blank verifies
that method interferences caused by
contaminants in solvents, reagents.
glassware, and other sample processing
hardware are known and minimized.
Optimally, a MB should contain no greater
than the reporting limit for the parameter.
Results of MB analyses shall be maintained
with or referenced to the corresponding
analytical data in the project file.
8.5.3.2 Reagent Blank (RB)
A reagent blank is composed of the
materials which will be added to client
samples during preparation. and analyzed
for specific parameters. It is analyzed to
verify that no laboratory contaminants are
present at levels which would affect sample
results. RBs must be successfully analyzed
prior to sample analysis. Records of
associated solvent lots and column
absorbent test results are stored in
Quality/Operation files.
8.5.3.3 Duplicate Sample Analyses
Duplicate analyses are performed to
evaluate the precision of an analysis.
Results of the duplicate analyses are used to
determine relative percent difference.
Criteria for evaluating duplicate sample
results are provided in Section 9.2.
8.5.3.4 Continuing Calibration
Standard (CCS)
Because standards and calibration curves
[

are subject to change and can vary from
day to day, a midpoint standard or check
standard should be analyzed during each
time period required by the analytical
method. Analysis of this standard is
necessary to verify the standard curve and
may serve in some cases as sufficient for
calibration.
8.5.3.5 Surrogate Standard (SS)
A SS determination should be performed on
all samples and blanks for methods
requiring surrogate usage. Surrogates should
be similar to the target analytes in chemical
composition and behavior in the analytical
process, but not normally found in
environmental samples. All samples and
blanks are fortified with surrogate spiking
compounds before purging or extraction to
monitor preparation and analysis of
samples.
8.5.3.6 Laboratory Matrix Spike
(MS)
To evaluate the effect of the sample matrix
on analytical methodology, a separate
aliquot sample should be spiked with the
analyte(s) of interest and analyzed with the
sample. The percent recovery for the
respective compound will then be
calculated. If the percent recovery falls
outside established QC limits, the data and
other associated QC sample results should
be evaluated and the sample may require
ITAS Operation-Specific QAMP

Page 63 of 246
reanalysis if criteria are not met. This type
of MS does. not necessarily reflect the
behavior of the field-collected target
analyte, especially if the target analyte is
not stable during shipping or storage.
8.5.3.7 Laboratory Matrix Spike
Duplicate (MSD)
Similar in concept to the MS sample, a
MSD is a separate aliquot sample that is
spiked with the analyte(s) of interest and
analyzed with the associated sample and
sample matrix spike. If the percent
recovery falls outside established QC limits,
the data and other QC sample results should
be evaluated and the sample may require
reanalysis if criteria are not met. The
comparison of the recoveries of the spiked
compounds in the MS and MSD samples is
made to determine the relative percent
difference (RPD) between the MS/MSD
samples.
8.5.3.8 Laboratory Control Sample
(LCS), Blank Spike (BS), or
QC Check Standard
A LCS is a blank sample spiked with the
parameters of interest or is a matrix of
known parameter concentrations that is
carried through the entire analytical
procedure. Analysis of this sample with
acceptable recoveries of spiked materials
demonstrates that the laboratory techniques
for this method are in control. Where
required, this sample is analyzed in
conjunction with MS/MSD samples. If the

MS/MSD pair shows poor recoveries due to
interferences or matrix effects, yet the LCS
is acceptable, this is strong evidence that
the method has been performed correctly by
the laboratory for these samples, but the
sample matrix has affected the results.
Results of LCS analyses must be cross-
referenced with the corresponding MS/MSD
and sample analytical data in the project
file. LCSs are control charted to
graphically demonstrate laboratory control
or monitored through use of control tables.
LCSs are described in the ITAS Division
SOP No. ITAS-IT-QC-0004, "Use and
Purpose of Laboratory Control Samples."
8.5.3.9 Analytical Spike (AS)
An AS sample is created by spiking target
analytes into a prepared portion of a sample
just prior to analysis. It provides
information on matrix effects encountered
during analysis such as suppression or
enhancement of instrument signal levels. It
is most often encountered with elemental
analyses involving the various forms of
atomic spectroscopy and is often referred to
as the "method of standard additions"
(MSA).
8.5.3.10 Internal Standard Spike (IS)
An IS is an analyte which has the same
characteristics as the surrogate, but is added
to a sample just prior to analysis. It

instrument performance, but it may also be
an integral part -of the analytical method in
a non-quality control sense, e.g., to
normalize data for quantitation purposes.
8.5.4 Matrix QC Samples
Matrix QC samples include MS, MSD, and
duplicate samples which are discussed in
Section 8.5.3.
8.5.5 Radiological QC Samples
Radiological QC samples, are listed in
Section 8 of the OS QAMP appendices
when applicable. The following is a
discussion of QC samples that are specific
only to radiochemical analyses.
8.5.5.1 Yield Monitors
Yield monitors are added to the actual
samples. There are two types of yield
monitors: tracers and carriers. A tracer is a
radioisotope usually of the same element,
and usually having the same mode of decay
as the analyte, that is added to the sample
to monitor recovery. A carrier is a non-
radioactive solution added to assist in
isolating the specific isotope of an element.
When standardized, the carrier can also
provide recovery information
gravimetrically.
8.5.6 Performance Evaluation
Samples (PEs)
PE samples may be blind or double-blind
and may be internal or external. PE

samples are discussed in detail in section
9.4.1.
8.6 Data Reduction, Verification,
and Reporting
Data review procedures, ideally defined as
a set of computerized and manual checks
applied at various appropriate levels of the
measurement process, will be clearly
defined for all measurement systems in
operation-specific SOPs. Responsibilities
for data and report review are defined in
the ITAS Division SOP No. ITAS-IT-QC-
0003, "ITAS Data and Report Review
Responsibilities". Data review begins with
the reduction (processing) of data and
continues through verification of the data
and the reporting of analytical results.
Calculations are checked from the raw data
to final value prior to reporting results for
each group of samples. Data reduction can
be performed by the analyst who obtained
Data

verification starts with the analyst and
continues with review by a second level
reviewer who verifies that data reduction
has been correctly performed and that the
reported analytical results correspond to the
data acquired and processed. The
procedure is outlined in Figure 8.6-1.
8.6.1 Data Reduction
The analyst's responsibilities for data
reduction include the following:

etc.)
* Calculation of instrument linearity
* Calculation or verification of QC
sample/standard results
* Calculation or verification of sample
results
. Use of proper data recording procedures
(as described in operation-specific
SOPs)
- Documentation of problems encountered
. Reporting of any nonconformances
- Continuation of internal chain-of-
custody, if applicable
In general, data will be processed by an
analyst in one of the following ways:
* Manual computation of results directly
on the data sheet or on calculation pages
attached to the data sheets
- Input of raw data for computer
processing
* Direct acquisition and processing of raw
damn by a computer
If data are manually processed by an
analyst, all steps in the computation shall be
provided including equations used and the
source of input parameters such as response
factors (RFs), dilution factors, and
calibration constants. If calculations are not

performed directly on the data sheet, they
may be attached to the data sheets.
For data that are input by an analyst and
processed using a computer, a copy of the
input shall be kept and uniquely identified
with the project number and other
information as needed. The samples
analyzed must be clearly defined.
If data are directly acquired from
instrumentation and processed, the analyst
must verify that the following are correct:
. Project and sample numbers
* Calibration constants and RFs
-Units
* Numerical values used for detection
limits (if a value is reported as "less
than")
Analysis-specific calculations for methods
are provided in operation-specific SOPs. In
cases where computers perform the
calculations, software must be validated or
verified (if industry-standard software is
used) in accordance with operation-specific
SOPs before it is used to process data.
Software validation and verification is
discussed in Section 6.0.
The analyst (initial reviewer) is further
required to initiate a data review check list
for each batch of samples. Data review

- check lists are described in the ITAS
Division SOP - No. ITAS-IT-QC-0003,
"ITAS Data and Report Review
Responsibilities". ITAS data review check
lists are shown for the following analyses:
* Metals (Figure 8.6-2)
* General Chemistry (Figure 8.6-3)
* Air (Figure 8.6-4)
* Radiochemistry (Figure 8.6-5)
. GC/MS (Figure 8.6-6)
* GC (Figure 8.6-7)
. HPLC (Figure 8.6-8)
* Dioxins/Dibenzofurans (Figure 8.6-9)
Data review check lists define and
document the reviews that are performed on
analytical data. The data review check list
contains the specific items to be verified for
the applicable test method. The items in
the check list must be addressed by the
initial reviewer (analyst), who must add to
the check list any comments that should be
relayed to the Project Manager for inclusion
in the case narrative. The signature of the
reviewer on the check list will serve to
document that the initial data verification
has been performed.
8.6.2 Data Verification
Following the completion of the initial

review by the analyst, a systematic second-
level review of the data is performed by an
experienced peer, technical person, or
supervisor. The second level reviewer
examines the data using the appropriate
check list signed by the analyst. This
review includes at least 20% of all items
listed and in some cases up to 100% of all
items (e.g. if mistakes are found in the 20%
review). Any exceptions noted by the
analyst must be reviewed. Included in this
review is an assessment of the acceptability
of produced data with respect to:
* Adherence of procedure used to the
requested analytical method or SOP
. Correctness of numerical input when
computer programs are used
- Numerical correctness of calculations
* Correct interpretation of chromatograns,
mass spectra, etc.
. Acceptability of QA/QC data
- Documentation that instruments were
operating according to method
specifications (calibrations, performance
checks, etc.)
- Documentation of dilution factors,
standard concentrations, etc.
This review also serves as verification that
the process that the analyst has followed is
correct in regard to the following:

Nonconforming events have been
addressed by corrective action as
defined in a nonconformance memo
* Relevant comments about sample or
analysis problems are clearly stated
. Valid interpretations have been made
during the examination of the data and
the review comments of the initial
reviewer are correct
. The package contains all of the
necessary documentation for data review
and report production, and results are
reported in a manner consistent with the
method used for preparation of data
reports
The specific items covered in the second-
level review may vary according to the
analytical method, but this review of the
data must be documented on the data
review check list with the signature of the
person performing the review.
A third-level review is performed by the
Project Manager. This review is required
before results are submitted to clients. This
review serves to verify the completeness of
the data report and to ensure that client
project requirements are met for the
analyses performed. The items to be
reviewed are:

&6.3.2 Data Package
ITAS routinely prepares data packages in
accordance with USEPA CLP protocol for
samples analyzed according to the CLP
Statement of Work. "CLP-like" data
packages are also routinely provided for

. non-CLP analyses. Data packages shall be
prepared to meet client and contractual
needs. Special data package requests should
be addressed with the laboratory prior to
sample analysis to assure the proper
protocol is followed to generate the needed
data package elements.
In general, data packages consist of a case
narrative followed by computer-generated
data forms, supported by copies of all
associated raw data. This may include but
not be limited to copies of:
Chromatograms
. Extraction notes
* Digestion logs
* Strip charts or instrument computer
printouts
Data worksheets
* Standards logs
* Chain-of-Custody records
8.6.3.3 Electronic Data Transfer
(EDT)
Upon request, data may be transmitted via
computer or diskette. Each operating unit
will work with the client to provide a
computer format that is consistent with the
output of laboratory data and meets
contractual needs. Procedures for EDT are
documented in operation-specific SOPs.

8.6.3.4 Verbal Results report sample results using a reporting

Any analytical results communicated
verbally or by facsimile should be reviewed
and approved prior to the communication.
Thus, these results must be of the same
quality as the hard copy report.
8.6.3.5 Data Reporting
Sample results are reported per analytical
method SOPs or per contract specification.
Normally, the laboratory determines
reporting limit at which any analyte of
interest detected at or above that level is
reported as a positive value and any analyte
of interest not detectable or detected below
that level is reported as a "less than" value.
However, in some cases a situation may
occur, due to a contractual requirement,
QAPjP, QAPP, client request, etc., that
requires the laboratory to report sample
results in a specified manner. Some
examples are given below:
. The laboratory may be requested to
report all analytes of interest that are
less than the laboratory's reporting limit
but are measurable by the analysis. This
data will be flagged with an appropriate
qualifier.
. The laboratory may be requested to
report any tentatively identified
compounds less than or greater than the
laboratory's reporting limit. This data
will be flagged with an appropriate
qualifier.
* The laboratory may be requested
limit that is higher than their normal
level. In this case, all analytes of
interest not detected or detectable below
that level would be reported as "less
than" and only the analytes of interest
found at or above that level would be
reported as positive values. In this case,
the laboratory will state the specified
reporting level rather than their normal
levels.
In these types of cases, the laboratory must
a
include documentation in the project file
that supports their reporting procedure.
It is the responsibility of the laboratory to
provide for a reporting system that ensures
that any problems associated with an
analysis are properly documented on a
nonconformance memo, communicated to
the appropriate ITAS Associates, and
addressed appropriately in the data report.
8.7 Data Validation
In ITAS and this OS QAMP, data
validation refers to data reviews conducted
in accordance with the USEPA CLP
"Laboratory Data Validation Functional
Guidelines for Evaluating Organic
Analyses" and "Laboratory Data Validation
Functional Guidelines for Inorganic
Analyses". Data validation performed by
ITAS will be done according to ITAS
Division SOP No. ITAS-IT-DV-001,
"Quality Assurance Plan - Data Validation".

9.0 QUALITY ASSESSMENT AND RESPONSE
Each ITAS operating unit shall establish,
implement, and document procedures to
detect, prevent, and correct quality
problems and to ensure quality
improvement. Items and processes that do
not meet established requirements must be
investigated to determine their cause.
Improvements must be implemented in the
operations which will prevent a recurrence
of these quality problems and provide
overall quality performance. All phases of
laboratory work should be designed with
the objective of preventing problems and
improving quality on a continuous basis.
9.1 Internal QC
The quality of all data produced at ITAS
operations is demonstrated by the analysis
of required QC samples in addition to the
specified method performance criteria such
as calibrations. Operation-specific SOPs
include information on all requirements for
the type of QC samples, their target
frequencies, and target acceptance criteria
for each analytical methodology to be used.
Additionally, these SOPs describe the
appropriate actions to be taken when a QC
sample result does not meet target
acceptance criteria. This information is
listed in Table 8.5.1 for inorganic QC
samples and Table 8.5-2 for organic QC

samples.
9.2 Specific Routine Procedures
Used to Assess Data Precision,
Accuracy, and Completeness
Section 8.5 of this document describes the
QC samples that are employed at ITAS as
a routine part of sample analysis. The
results of these QC samples will be used to
validate the precision and accuracy of the
laboratory measurements. QC samples are
split into two categories: Laboratory
Quality Control Measurements and Matrix
Quality Control Measurements. These are
described in the following sections:
9.2.1 Laboratory QC Measurements
Laboratory QC samples (discussed in
section 8.5.3) demonstrate that the functions
which are under laboratory control are
within acceptable limits. Table 9.2-1 lists
laboratory QC samples and their purpose.
9.2.2 Matrix QC Measurements
Matrix QC samples provide information
regarding any influence the sample matrix
may exert on the precision and accuracy of
the analytical results. As this influence is
beyond the control of the laboratory, matrix
QC samples outside the acceptance criteria
are not always cause for re-analysis of the
sample. Matrix QC samples include

laboratory MS, MSD, and duplicate
samples. Matrix QC samples and their
purpose are listed in Table 9.2-2.
9.2.3 Precision and Accuracy Limits
Precision and accuracy limits are defined in
the applicable methods and will be used to
determine the acceptability of the QC
sample results. In the case where a method
does not specify precision and accuracy
limits, internal limits will be determined by
the ITAS operating unit and documented in
operation-specific SOPs.
Table 9.2-3 shows the precision and
accuracy measurements employed by ITAS.
MS, MSD, and duplicate sample results are
evaluated using method or laboratory limits.
Control charts or tables are maintained by
the analyst for LCSs on a "real time" basis
and are used to assess the level of
laboratory control. It is the responsibility
of each laboratory analyst to update any
other client-required control charts or
control tables as a part of routine data
reduction.
9.3 Nonconformance, Corrective
Action, and Deficiency
9.3.1 Nonconformance
A nonconformance is a deviation or event
beyond the limits and criteria established
for standard operations, which may lead to
ITAS Operaon-Specific QAMP
Section No.: 9.0
Date Initiated: September 1, 1993
Revision No.: 0
Date Revised: N/A
Page 74 of 246
a degradation of quality to an unacceptable
or indeterminate level. Nonconformances
over which the operating unit has control
must have the root cause determined so that
the possibility of the nonconformance
recurring is minimized or eliminated.
Nonconformances may include (but are not
limited to) the following:
- Sample holding time exceeded
Incorrect sample preparation or analysis
techniques used
Invalid instrument calibration used
* QC sample data (blank, spike, duplicate,
surrogates, LCS, etc.) are outside
acceptance criteria.
Incorrect data reported to the client
Sample lost during extraction/analysis;
no re-prep or re-analysis possible
* Any other situation that might adversely
affect the final data quality
As soon as deviation from
accepted
laboratory practice is discovered, it is
required to be documented. There are two
types of documentation within the ITAS
system for nonconformances. These are the
ITAS Nonconformance Memo (NCM),
Figure 9.3-1 (pages 1 and 2) and the ITAS
Condition Upon Receipt Variance Report
(CUR), Figure 8.3-1.

9.3.1.1 Nonconformance Memo been determined and that corrective actions

(NCM)
Information to be documented on the NCM
include (but are not limited to) the
following:
- Laboratory area affected
- Nonconformance category
- Client notification
- Corrective action (root cause and actions
to prevent recurrence should be
included, as appropriate)
- QC review (nonconformance or
deficiency must be checked off)
- Verification of corrective action if
nonconformance (verification is not
required for deficiencies)
- Signature by QA/QCC or designee
verifying NCM closure
* Routing destination (Quality/Operations
files or Project file)
Upon completion, original NCMs are stored
in the appropriate project file if project-
have been taken-to prevent recurrence. The
NCM may be used for this purpose.
9.3.1.2 Condition Upon Receipt
Variance Report (CUR)
A CUR is generated by sample control
during the log-in process to document
nonconformances identified upon receipt of
samples in the laboratory. These
nonconformances are outside of laboratory
control and do not require corrective actions
to be taken within the laboratory. The
corrective action in this case is client
notification. Actions to prevent recurrence
should take the form of client education
when possible. Nonconformances
documented on a CUR may include (but are
not limited to) the following:
Not enough sample received for proper
analysis
- Sample received without proper
preservative
- Sample received in improper container

specific or are stored in the facility * Sample received broken or leaking

Quality/Operations files if non-project
specific. - Sample received outside temperature
specifications

Nonconformances identified through - Sample received without proper

surveillance, or through an internal or paperwork
external audit require documentation and
- Sample received without or with broken
tracking to verify that the root cause has custody tape

* Chain-of-Custody broken (not
relinquished by the client)
* Sample information on the container
does not match the accompanying
paperwork
- All shipping containers (coolers) on
waybill not received in the sample
shipment
Once the nonconformance is identified and
the CUR initiated, the laboratory Project
Manager is notified. The Project Manager
then notifies the client and requests
instructions on how to proceed with the
samples. The client contact and the client
response to the nonconformance must be
documented on the CUR and communicated
to sample control so that log-in may
proceed. These nonconformances must be
resolved prior to sample prep and analysis.
9.3.2 Corrective Action
All nonconformances shall have a
corrective action. The process by which
corrective action is performed requires a
determination of root cause, immediate
action, and actions taken to prevent
recurrence. The latter two may be the same
action. Corrective actions include (but are
not limited to) the following:
- Recalibration of instruments, using
freshly prepared calibration standards
* Reanalysis of samples

Replacement of lots of solvent or other
reagents that yield unacceptable blank
values
. Additional training of laboratory
Associates in correct implementation of
sample preparation and analytical
techniques
* Reassignment of Associates
* Communication with the client to
determine appropriate action (e.g.
resampling, processing the sample "as
is", terminating analysis, etc.)
9.3.3 Deficiency
A deficiency is a deviation from
documented procedures, practices,
standards, or a defect in an item that is
determined not to render the quality of an
item or service unacceptable or
indeterminate. The QA/QCC shall
determine whether the deviation is a
nonconformance or a deficiency.
9.3.4 Responsibilities
All laboratory Associates are responsible
for identifying and reporting any deviation
from accepted laboratory practice that might
affect the quality of the data. Once a
possible nonconformance is identified, a
NCM or a CUR is generated and routed to
that Associate's supervisor for further
review and documentation.
The QA/QCC is responsible for verifying

corrective actions and tracking NCM's until
closure. The corrective action must be
performed in a timely manner.
The QA/QCC (or designee) is responsible
for logging all nonconforrhances into a
master nonconformance log (example
shown in Figure 9.3-2).
9.4 QA/QC Audits
ITAS operating units are subject to
numerous assessments in the form of audits,
both internal (self assessment) and external
(independent assessment). Laboratory audits
within ITAS can be broken down into four
major categories:
Performance Audits
- Surveillances
- Quality Systems Audits
* Project Audits
Audits of laboratories are performed to
determine the degree of adherence to
policies, procedures, and standards which
include:
. IT and ITAS Quality Assurance Policy
* IT and ITAS Procedures
* Contractual Requirements
. Regulatory Obligations
ITAS Operation-Specific QAMP
Section No.: 9.0
Date Initiated: September 1. 1993
Revision No.: 0
Date Revised: N/A
Page 77 of 246
- Audits serve as a useful management tool
to evaluate the appropriateness of QA
policies. They identify areas for
improvement with regard to compliance
with policies, procedures, and standards,
providing means for correction prior to
system failure requiring shut down. In
addition, they serve to strengthen the
documentation trail assuring known data
quality.
9.4.1 Performance Audits
Performance audits are conducted on an
ongoing basis within the laboratory by the
QA/QCC. These audits are reported to the
Operating Unit Director and the Division
Director, QA/QC. Performance audits vary
with the needs of the operating unit.
Performance audits include internal and
external performance evaluation (PE)
samples. These are discussed in the
following sections.
9.4.1.1 Internal Performance
Evaluation
The QA/QCC has the responsibility of
monitoring the performance of the
laboratory by inserting blind QC samples
("true" value(s) unknown to analyst) into
the sample stream periodically and
analyzing the results. The blind QC
samples will be scheduled throughout the
year to cover all routine analyses on an
annual basis. Internal Performance Audits

are performed on a routine basis and are
described in operation-specific SOPs. In
addition, they may also be performed along
with a project (client requested) or any time
the QA/QCC or Operating Unit Director
requests the' performance audit study.
Performance audit samples demonstrate data
quality by statistical analysis. The results of
these - samples may also be used to
document the training level of the analyst(s)
performing the work. These results are
linked to the analyst(s) in the Associate
training files.
9.4.1.2 External Performance
Evaluation
Each laboratory participates in external PE
programs such as the USEPA Water Supply
(WS), Water Pollution (WP), and/or
Contract Laboratory Program (CLP)
quarterly proficiency program for chemical
parameters and/or the USEPA
Intercomparison Program through the
Environmental Monitoring Support
Laboratory in Las Vegas (EMSL-LV) for
radiochemical parameters. In addition,
many state agencies and private contractors
provide PE samples to challenge the
laboratories and evaluate the effectiveness
of the laboratory program. All external PE
sample studies and results shall be
maintained as quality records in the
laboratory Quality/Operations files.
rrAS Operation-Specific QAMP
Section No.: 9.0
Date Initiated: September 1. 1993
Revision No.: 0
Date Revised: N/A
Page 78 of 246
Since participation in these programs and
others varies with the type of work
performed within each ITAS laboratory, the
specifics of participation are described in
Appendix Section 6.
9.4.1.3 Double-Blind Performance
Evaluation
ITAS employs a "double blind" PE sample
program involving semiannual studies.
This program applies to all ITAS
laboratories. Double-blind PE samples are
blind PE samples submitted to the
laboratory under the pretense that they are
normal client samples. The results of the
study are reported to the Vice President, IT
Analytical Services, the Division Technical
Director, and the Division Director,
QA/QC. Recommendations for quality
improvement are submitted to the
Laboratory Directors, and corrective actions
are implemented as necessary.
9.4.2 Surveillances
Surveillances are detailed inspections of
specific areas of a laboratory and its QA
Program. Surveillances do not require the
extensive planning and preparation required
for audits and are conducted on a much
more informal basis. The QA/QCC shall
observe the activity of interest while it is in
process and/or review objective evidence. A
checklist for the applicable documents and
criteria may be used for this review.

* A surveillance is performed each month by
the QA/QCC (unless a systems audit or
follow-up audit is performed). The scope
of the surveillance is determined by the
QA/QCC. This allows for a concentrated
focus on areas of the laboratory that may be
suspect or require additional monitoring to
verify compliance with policies, procedures,
and. standards. The QA/QCC may use the
nonconformance/corrective action system to
determine trends in a laboratory area that
require further investigation. The purpose of
a surveillance is to find and correct
problems before they become out-of-control
situations.
Once the surveillance is complete, the
QA/QCC will assign a score and will issue
a report to the responsible manager. A
copy of the report is sent directly to the
Laboratory Director and to the Division
Director, QA/QC in the laboratory monthly
report to management. The report details
the results of the surveillance, and requests
a corrective action plan complete with
target dates and Associate assignments. The
QA/QCC must work with the surveyed
group to recommend corrective action and
then follow-up after the proposed target
date to verify that corrective action was
indeed performed. The QA/QCC shall
document by memorandum that corrective
action was taken. Surveillances are fully
described in operation-specific SOPs.

9.4.3 Quality Systems Audits
Four times per year, each laboratory
undergoes an internal audit to identify the
level of compliance with established,
documented, quality assurance systems.
Two of these audits are designed and
conducted by the QA/QCC. The remaining
two are conducted by the Division Director,
QA/QC or designee. The Division audits
usually consist of a 2-4 day comprehensive
review of all quality systems in the
laboratory. Six months later, a second or
follow-up audit is conducted to assess
compliance with the corrective action plan
established by the audited laboratory after
completion of the first audit. The follow-up
can be performed in 1-2 days. The Lead
Auditor reserves the right to lengthen the
audit or require a complete re-audit in 3 to
6 months depending upon the extent of the
problems discovered. Findings which have
not been satisfactorily resolved between the
two audits shall be specifically reported to
the Division Operations Director and Vice
President, IT Analytical Services, for
resolution.
Systems audits not conducted by the
QA/QCC are lead by an ITAS certified
Lead Auditor (see System Procedure 8907-
QAC-04, "Standard Operating Procedure
for Auditors Certification at ITAS
Laboratories") under the direction of the
Division Director, QA/QC. The Division

Director, QA/QC (or designee) will prepare
a schedule of audits to be conducted during
the fiscal year and will select appropriate
audit teams depending upon the nature and
depth of the audit. The source documents
for systems audits are the ITAS QAMP, the
ITAS Operation-Specific QAMP, and
SOPs. The scope of the audit takes into
aceount the expectations of external
auditors, contracts, and regulatory
requirements. A systems audit check list is
prepared for the year and used in all
locations audited to provide consistency and
objectivity to the audit team.
At the beginning of the audit, the audit
team will meet with the Operating Unit
Director and the QA/QCC to discuss the
goals of the audit. At the close of the
audit, the audit team will debrief the
Operating Unit Director, QA/QCC, the
laboratory Technical Director, Project
Managers, and Group Leaders, and will
discuss and present the audit findings and
observations. Additional laboratory staff
may be invited to the debriefing, as deemed
necessary by the Lead Auditor. The Lead
Auditor can close an audit finding or
observation during the debriefing if the
laboratory staff can satisfactorily
demonstrate that the finding/observation is
inappropriate or has been corrected prior to
the debriefing. Also during this meeting,
recommendations for corrective actions will

be discussed. If corrective actions are
requested to be taken immediately after
audit closure, the actions must be taken.
An audit report will be prepared by the
Lead Auditor and will include the
following:
. Cover memo summarizing the audit
process, any findings, and announcement
of the preliminary audit ranking
* Audit Check List
- Finding Report(s)
- Observation Report(s)
- Corrective Action Plan (to be completed
by the laboratory)
The audit report shall be completed as soon
as possible after completion of the audit,
but shall take no longer than 45 days. The
original audit report will be addressed to
the Operating Unit Director, who is
responsible for responding within the
designated time frames established by the
Lead Auditor. A completed copy of the
systems audit report will be sent to the
QA/QCC and the Division Director,
QA/QC.
Upon receipt of the audit response, the
Lead Auditor will evaluate the proposed
corrective action plan and will reply stating
acceptance or rejection of the plan or its

is strongly recommended that they be

the comments and observations are those
which describe exemplary practices. Audit
reports should not focus only on negative
aspects of the program and may include a
section on exemplary practice.
9.4.6 Audit Ranking
Internal ITAS QA Systems Audits require
a-preliminary and final ranking to be
assessed. Audit check list scores and
assessments of open observations and
findings (not corrected since the last
internal or client audit) are considered in
the audit ranking process. Laboratories are
ranked as either excellent, acceptable,
marginal, or unacceptable. These ranks are
described as follows:
- Excellent - Meets or exceeds established
requirements for all areas audited.
- Acceptable - Audited work meets all
requirements of the ITAS QA Program
with only a few minor deviations from
established requirements.
- Marginal - Audited work represents a
basic QC practice with actions required
by the laboratory to improve operations
immediately.
- Unacceptable - Audited work indicates
that quality practice is not implemented
on a regular basis and one or more areas
will be shut down for correction.
The Division Director, QA/QC, will issue a
memorandum to all QA/QCCs and

*Operating Unit Directors annually
describing the process of determining the
audit rank.
While audit ranking allows for comparison
of laboratories across the network, caution
is advised in using the ranking alone
without a detailed review of the situations
or conditions observed that caused the Lead
Auditor to arrive at that rank.
9.4.7 Client Satisfaction Survey
Each ITAS operating unit has the
responsibility to understand client needs,
and whether ITAS services are meeting
those needs and expectations. At least three
client satisfaction surveys should be
performed monthly, within each operating
unit, to randomly selected clients by the
QA/QCC or designee. The IT Corporation
Client Satisfaction Survey form (Figure 9.4-
1) should be utilized with distribution to the
ITAS Project Manager, Operating Unit
Director, Division Operations Director,
Vice President, IT Analytical Services, Vice
President, Quality and Health Services, and
Division Director, QA/QC. Any corrective
or follow-up action must be documented on
the form and implemented by the Project
Manager or Operating Unit Director.
9.5 Quality Reports to
Management
The QA/QCC and the Division Director,
QA/QC shall prepare reports to

management on a monthly basis indicating
the effectiveness of the QA Program. ihe
QA/QCC shall send a quality report to the
Division Director, QA/QCC. An example
outline for the QA/QCC's report is shown
in Figure 9.5-1. The Division Director,
QA/QC, shall send a summary of the
QA/QCC's reports to the Vice President, IT
Analytical Services.
9.6 Management Review of the
Quality Assurance Program
Management at all levels shall assess the
QA Program and its performance.
Management assessment shall identify
barriers that hinder the organization from
achieving its objectives in accordance with
quality, safety, and environmental
requirements. Results of management
assessments shall be documented and
corrective action taken. The effectiveness
of the implementation of corrective actions
shall be included in the next management
assessment.
An example of the management assessment
approach will be to conduct double blind
studies on the appropriate laboratories (see
Section 9.4.1.3). In such studies, a client
contacts the laboratory and submits a
sample of known parameters and values for
analysis that is totally blind to the
laboratory management and the analysts.
These studies allow assessment of the total
process from initial client contact through

final reporting.
Review of the adequacy of the ITAS QA
Program is ongoing. At any time, the
Division Operations Director, an Operating
Unit Director, or the Division Technical
Director may present, in writing,
recommended changes to the Division
Director, QA/QC. During the QA systems
audits, the QA Program is discussed with
the management of the facility audited. This
feedback is valuable and necessary to the
progress of the QA Program in meeting the
constantly-changing needs of the
environmental industry.
In addition to these ongoing reviews, the
Vice President, IT Analytical Services shall
conduct an annual review of the QA
Program considering:
. Results of the QA systems audits. Are
undesirable trends occurring?
* Status of QA documents. Are the current
documents adequate? Are new
documents needed?
. Is the auditing program fulfilling its
purpose?
The Vice President will consult with the
Division Operations Director, Operating
Unit Directors, and the Vice President,
Quality and Health Services, as necessary,
during the review. To document the review,
the Vice President, IT Analytical Services,

Periodic Equipment Calibrations

Type of Calibration Calibration Requirements

Balance Calibration
* Must be serviced and calibrated annually by a manufacturer's
representative

* Calibration mst be checked daily before use by analyst with weight(s)

classified as Class "S" (or Class "5" traceable) by NIST per operation-
specific SOPs.

* Quarterly calibrations must cycle through the range of weights applicable

to a balance as described in operation-specific SOPs.

* All Class "S" weights must be certified by an outside agency every three
years.
* Class "5" traceable weights used for daily balance calibration checks must
be checked against a Class "S" weight monthly.

Thermometer Calibration
" Working thermometers must be calibrated against a certified NIST
thermometer at least annually as described in operation-specific SOPs.

* The NIST thermometer must be re-certified every three years.

Micropipettors
" Calibrations are checked gravimetrically as required by the operation-
specific SOP.

* Must be calibrated at the frequency (normally quarterly) required by the

manufacturer at a minimum.

Syringes, Volumetric
Glassware and Graduated * All syringes and volumetric glassware are purchased as Class A items.
Glassware
* Class A items are certified by the manufacturer to be within ± 1% of the
measured volume, therefore, calibration of these items by ITAS-
laboratories is not required.

* All analysts are trained in the proper use and maintenance of measuring
devices to ensure the measurement of standards, reagents and sample
volumes are within method tolerances.

TABLE 9.2-1
Laboratory Quality Control Samples/Measurements

Sample/Measurement Purpose
Initial Calibration Ensures the calculated concentration is within
the limits of error as defined by the initial
calibration conformance requirements. (For
example by using an average calibration factor
with a conformance limit of s 20% relative
standard deviation, all samples calculated will
be within 20% of the true value.)
Continuing and Ending Calibration Ensure that the calculated concentration is
within the limits of error defined by the
continuing calibration conformance criteria
(e.g. all values are within 15% of the true
concentration).
Solvent Blanks Demonstrates that the solvent used to prepare
standards and dilutions is free of interferences
as regards a specific analysis.
Method Blanks Demonstrate the laboratory systems (e.g.
glassware cleaning procedures) and laboratory
reagents used for the preparation and analysis
of samples have not contributed to a false
positive or negative measurement.
Reagent Blanks Demonstrate that the reagents purchased by the
laboratory are free of interferences as regards
an analysis and do not contribute to false
positive or false negative results.
Volatile Holding Blanks Demonstrate that the volatile organic samples
-are not cross contaminated during storage at
the laboratory.
Laboratory Control Sample Demonstrates the laboratory's ability to
perform an analysis within the conformance
requirements of the method.

TABLE 9.2-2
Matrix Quality Control Samples

Quality Control Sample Purpose

Duplicate samples Estimates the ability of the laboratory to obtain
precise measurements on a sample. This measure is
dependent on the homogeneity of the sample being
duplicated. Solid samples often portray poor
sample homogeneity and therefore often have poor
duplication as regards to the sample result.
Matrix Spike Sample Estimates the ability of the laboratory to obtain
accurate measurements on a sample. The measure
is dependent on the bias a sample matrix may cause
regarding a given analyte.

Matrix Spike Duplicate Sample
In addition to verifying the accuracy of the matrix
spike sample,the matrix spike duplicate can be used
with the matrix spike sample as a measure of
precision by calculating the relative percent
difference (RPD).

Precision and Accuracy Measurements

Measurement Definition
Accuracy The degree of agreement of a measurement with an accepted reference or true
value. The only true or known values in the laboratory are spiked samples.
Expressed as laboratory control sample percent recovery (LCS %R).

LCS % R = Foundx 100

True

Found = the concentration of an analyte determined from sample analysis.

True = the concentration of the analyte spiked into the sample.

Precision The measure of analytical reproducibility of two values. Expressed as the
relative percent difference (RPD) of two values.

RPD= x100

where: x, - first value

x2 = second value
Arithmetic mean The average of a set of values.

(F) I,

- rx,i-

For radiochemistry measurements, ITAS/RD uses for guidance "Performance Criteria for
Radiobioassay", Draft Standard P/N13.30 ANSI/Health Physics Society Standard, "Upgrading
Environmental Radiation Data", EPA 520/1-80-012, and "Lower Limit of Detection: Definition and
Elaboration of a Proposed Position for Radiological Effluent and Environmental Measurements",
Nureg/CR-4007, or as requested by the client.

Minimum Detectable Concentration Equation

t)
MDC = 3 + (4.65 * IRk *
2.22 * E * t0 * V0 * Y

Terms in Equations

E = counting efficiency for the analyte of interest.

MDC = minimum detectable activity in pCi per sample unit.

Rb =background counts per minute (cpm) in the ROI or analyte of interest.

N = gross cpm of sample aliquant.

ta = count length of sample aliquant, in minutes.

tb = count length of background, in minutes.

TPU = total propagated uncertainty.

UE = (UE2 + U 2
+ Uy 2 + Uy 2)

UE = relative fractional random uncertainty associated with the counting efficiency E, typically
0.03.

UR = counting uncertainty in pCi per sample unit.

Us = relative fractional systematic uncertainty of the procedure, typically 0.03.

U= relative fractional random uncertainty associated with the volume measurement, typically
0.015. Substitute Um for solid samples, typically 0.01.

Uy = relative fractional random uncertainty associated with yield Y, typically 0.05 for procedures
with radiochemical separations.

Va = volume or mass of sample aliquant analyzed, typically in liters. Substitute Me for solid
samples, typically in grams.

Y = chemical yield, as determined from processing matrix spikes. Y = dpm recovered/dpm

added.

2 = for two sigma uncertainty.

2.22 = conversion of dpm to pCi.

3, 4.65 = constants in the MDC equation.

5 g soil is added to 250 ml DI water in the distillaion flask; the distillation and analysis procedure is followed as described in the reference
EPA method(s).

1 Soil is leached.

I g soil is added to 100 ml DI water and sonicated for 30 minutes in a water bath. A portion of the leachate is then decanted. filtered if
necessary, and analyzed according to the referenced method(s). The results an reported as water leachable concentrations of the analytes.

5 g soil is added to
500 .a DI water in the distilleion flask; the ditilleicea and analysis procedure is then followed as described in the
referenced EPA method(s).

I g soil is added to 50 ml DI water in the digestion apparatus: the digestion, distillation, and analysis procedure is then followed as
described in the referenced EPA method.

2 g soil is added to asn appropriate volume of DI water (200 m! forwndfideanalysis, 50 mfor sulfite analysi); the solution is Agitated with
a magnetic stirrer and titrated in sccordance with the referenced EPA methods.

' Samples are weighed in a glas ampule and mixed with a phosphoric and sodium pecmdfat. ragent solution. The phosphoric acid
immediately convents all inorganic carbon to carbon dioxide (CO.) which is purged firo the ampule with oxygen. The ampule is sealed
under oxygen and heated to approximately 100" in a water bath for 30 minsus. Th beating process coont the organic carbon to CO,
which is trapped in the sealed ampule. mas samples an analyzed according to the referenced EPA methods by an O. 1. Corporation Total
Organic Carbon Analyzer, Model 700. The carbon is quaified by an infrared detect in the analyzer by memsuring the absorbance of
Co'.

Radlochemical Method Detection Limit Determinations

The minimum detectable activity for radiochemical analyses is given by:

MDA - 4.65 * S. + 2.71/T

E

where: MDA = minimum detectable activity (dpm)

Sb - the standard deviation in the count rate of a blank including

all experimental variations as obtained by replicating the
entire measurement of the appropriate blank, not just the Poisson
component of the square root of the count.

T = count time

E = efficiency factor (cpm/dpm)

2.71 - Poisson factor

Detector characteristics, count time, sample volume and matrix effects that influence chemical
yield affect the minimum detectable concentration. Count durations and sample volumes can be
optimized in order to meet client required detection limits. Matrix effects, including high levels
of other radionuclides in the sample, may cause the sample detection limit for the target
radionuclide to exceed the required limit.

Method detection limits for fuirnace metals were determined between 2112/93 and 4/2/93. Water MDLs for mercury were
determined on 9/9/92. Soil MDLs for mercury were determined on 6-22-93.

PQLs ate estimated from the method detection limit studies for water samples.

Soil detection limits are based on wet weight of sample: detection limits will be higher when corrected for percent ,olids

Mercury is performed by cold vapor atomic absorption. The other elements are performed by graphite furnace
techniques.
