  4. QATraining: Objectives • What is QA? • What is Environmental Information? • What is the basis for EPA’s Quality System? • What is the QA Process? • Planning • Implementation • Evaluation • What are your roles and responsibilities? • How will QA help you?

  5. What is the EPA QA Process? • Planning • Implementation • Evaluation/Assessment • We call this PIE – easy to remember, and tastes good too.

  6. QAPP Categories for Emergency Response • Initial Incident Monitoring QAPP (for immediate needs monitoring) • Transitional or Follow-up Monitoring QAPP (for transitional or follow-up monitoring may be time critical) • UFP QAPP (for long term monitoring)

  7. Emergency Response – Chemical Incident • Use of Generic QAPP for Chemical Measurements and site specific Initial Incident Monitoring QAPP • Generation of Screening level data or Screening with Definitive Confirmation • Production of a QA Sampling Report within 30 days

  8. How will QA help you? • Confidence (YOU know data are useful) • Credibility (OTHERS know it) • Defensibility (legal standing) • Efficiency (saves time) • Economical (saves money)

  9. QA helps you because it: • Puts everything on paper, so not forgotten or ignored. • Structures planning to focus on the usefulness of results. • Fosters communication among all the participants. • Involves YOU in making the PIE happen.
