Environmental Technology Verification Report. Advanced Monitoring Systems Center Quality Management Plan for the ETV Advanced Monitoring Systems Center Version 8.0.

摘要

This document, the Quality Management Plan (QMP) for the Advanced Monitoring Systems (AMS) Center, describes the quality system that will be employed by Battelle in administering the AMS Center. This quality system is designed to be consistent with American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/American Society for Quality Control (ASQC) E4-1994, the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) document Environmental Technology Verification (ETV) QMP (2008), and EPA/QA R-2 (2001). In addition, this QMP is compliant with the Battelle Environmental Solutions (ENVS) Product Line QMP, which describes the organization's quality system. The purpose of the AMS Center is to verify commercially-available technologies for monitoring, sampling, detection, and characterization of natural species and contaminants in a variety of matrices, including air, water, and soil. As part of the larger ETV program, the AMS Center is designed to provide technology users with objective, high quality performance data to support monitoring technology selection decisions. The purpose of the Quality System described in this QMP is to establish policies, processes, and procedures that will ensure that the quality of data, products, and services provided by the AMS Center meet or exceed the needs of its stakeholders. It also defines the quality management responsibilities, functions, and activities that will support the AMS Center Manager in the implementation of the QMP.
