Laboratory QA/QC Sample Clauses

Laboratory QA/QC. The contracted laboratory for this dredge project will be responsible for implementing the procedures described by the laboratory’s QA Plan. This QA/QC program should be consistent with recommended USEPA methodologies and procedures (particularly USEPA SW-846, most recent edition) and as a minimum includes the following components: • Standards • Laboratory blanks • Duplicates • Spiked samples • Operator Training • Instrument Maintenance The QA/QC program of the laboratory will describe: • Laboratory Methodologies; • Personnel Qualifications; • Analytical Methods; and, • Holding Times. To ensure that the lab has an adequate QA/QC program in place, laboratory certification and/or approval by the Executive Officer of the Santa Xxx Regional Water Quality Control Board is required. Matrix Spike/Matrix Spike Duplicate (MS/MSD) The use of a MS/MSD pair is a means of measuring both precision and accuracy in an analysis. A matrix spike is an aliquot of a sample fortified (spiked) with known quantities of specific compounds and subjected to the entire analytical procedure in order to indicate the appropriateness of the method for the matrix by measuring recovery. A second aliquot of the matrix spike, a matrix spike duplicate, is spiked in order to determine the precision of the method. Laboratory Control Samples Laboratory control samples (LCS) are blank samples spiked with known amounts of target analytes that are carried through the entire extraction and analysis procedure. Spiking levels are constant over time and are known to the analyst. Since LCS should yield consistent results, anomalous results indicate a laboratory analytical problem, not a matrix problem. In contrast, poor MS/MSD and surrogate results are often inconclusive in differentiating laboratory and matrix problems. In addition, the LCS provide for an indication of accuracy. If conducted, the laboratory will determine the appropriate spiking level to use in the LCS based upon their calibration range and internal standard operating procedures.
