Final Data Usability Summary and Resampling Proposal for Fort Sheridan

Abstract

Fort Sheridan performed validation of data which had been collected during the Remedial Investigation (RI) in 1990-1991. As required by the Ft. Sheridan Overall Quality Assurance Project Plan (OQAPP), this validation was performed in accordance with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Contract Laboratory Program National Functional Guidelines (NFG). The validation results were presented in a draft data validation report, which was reviewed by the EPA and Illinois EPA. Comments on the draft report are being addressed in a final version of the report expected to be completed in early 1996. Sufficient information exists in the draft report, and the regulatory comments, to now determine the extent of resampling that should provide assurance that the 1990-1991 dataset may be used with confidence in the future versions of the RI report. This plan describes the resampling to be performed. The basic approach discussed here was determined in discussions between Fort Sheridan, the EPA, Illinois EPA, the Army Environmental Center, and its RI consultant, Environmental Science and Engineering, Inc.
