Response Protocol Toolbox: Planning for and Responding to Drinking Water Contamination Threats and Incidents, Interim Final - December 2003. Module 4: Analytical Guide

摘要

Module 4 presents an approach to the analysis of samples collected from the site of a suspected contamination incident. The purpose of the Analytical Guide is not to provide a detailed protocol. Rather, it describes a framework for developing an approach for the analysis of water samples that may contain an unknown contaminant. The framework is flexible and will allow the approach to be crafted based on the requirements of the specific situation. The framework is also designed to promote the effective and defensible performance of laboratory analysis.
