1、Designation: D 5612 94 (Reapproved 2003)Standard Guide forQuality Planning and Field Implementation of a WaterQuality Measurement Program1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 5612; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the cas

2、e of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This guide covers planning and implementation of thesampling aspects of environmental data

3、 generation activities.Environmental data generation efforts are comprised of fourparts: (1) establishment of data quality objectives (DQOs); ( 2)design of field sampling and measurement strategies andspecification of laboratory analyses and data acceptance crite-ria; (3) implementation of sampling

4、and analysis strategies; and( 4) data quality assessment.1.2 This guide defines the criteria that must be considered toensure the quality of the field aspects of environmental dataand sample generation activities.1.3 DQOs should be adopted prior to the application of thisguide. The data generated in

5、 accordance with this guide aresubject to a final assessment to determine whether the DQOswere met. For example, many screening activities do notrequire all of the quality assurance (QA) and quality control(QC) steps found in this guide to generate data adequate tomeet the project needs. The extent

6、to which all of therequirements must be met remains a matter of technicaljudgement as it relates to the established DQOs.1.4 This guide presents extensive management requirementsdesigned to ensure high-quality samples and data. The words“must,”“ shall,” “may,” and “should” have been selectedcarefull

Summary of Guide4.1 This guide describes the criteria and activities fororganizations involved in obtaining water samples and gener-ating field data in terms of human and

22、 physical resources andQC procedures and documentation requirements depending onthe DQOs or agreed upon project plan.5. Significance and Use5.1 Environmental data are often required for making regu-latory and programmatic decisions. These data must be ofknown quality commensurate with their intended

23、 use.5.2 Certain minimal criteria must be met by the fieldorganizations in order to meet the objectives of the watermonitoring activities.5.3 This guide defines the criteria for organizations takingwater samples and generating environmental data and identifiesother activities that may be required ba

38、Field Operations7.1 Purposesthe field organization must conduct its op-erations in such a manner as to provide reliable informationthat meets the DQOs. To achieve this goal, certain minimumpolicies and procedures must be implemented in order to meetthe DQOs.7.2 Organization The field organization sh

39、all be struc-tured such that each member of the organization has a clearunderstanding of his or her duties and responsibilities and therelationship of those responsibilities to the total effort. Theorganizational structure, functional responsibilities, levels ofauthority, job descriptions, and lines

40、 of communication foractivities shall be established and documented. One personmay cover more than one organizational function.7.2.1 ManagementThe management personnel of the fieldorganization is responsible for establishing organizational,operational, health and safety, and QA policies. Managements

41、hall ensure that the following requirements are met: ( 1) theappropriate methodologies are followed, as documented in thestandard operating procedures (SOPs); (2) personnel under-stand clearly their duties and responsibilities; ( 3) each staffmember has access to appropriate project documents; (4) a

42、nydeviations from the project plan are communicated to projectmanagement; and (5) communication occurs between the field,laboratory, and project managements, as specified in the projectplan. Management shall foster an attitude within the organiza-tion that emphasizes the importance of quality and su
