Guidelines for Water Quality Laboratory Operations.
Abstract
This report contains information which will be helpful in both personnel working in water quality laboratories and to personnel responsible for monitoring water quality laboratory. Many information sources are given to include contacts with the US Environmental Protection Agency, US Geological Survey, and the CE. Many basic references are also given which cover all aspects of water quality laboratory operations. Techniques in sample collection and sample handling are given along with recommended and approved methods for sample analysis. There is a section addressing laboratory quality assurance and quality control which can be used from both an operational and monitoring standpoint. A survey of CE water quality laboratory capabilities was taken and the results are presented. From the survey the most often performed analyses in CE laboratories were obtained. A discussion of these analyses and potential problems with these analyses is presented.
