` 1 <br /> Emission Test Report <br /> EMC WA-2-08 <br /> �.:.` Section 5 <br /> Revision: 0 <br /> Date: September 30, 1999 <br /> Page 1 of 18 <br /> Section 5. <br /> Quality Assurance (42A)/Quality Control (QC) <br /> Activities <br /> The QA/QC requirements and emission measurement and data quality criteria for this <br /> test project are summatized in this section. The QC procedures and acceptance criteria <br /> specified in the EPA-methods and MRI SOPs were used. The procedures included, but <br /> were not limited to, (1) sampling equipment calibrations, (2) procedural elements of the <br /> methods such as leak checks, proper traversing, placement of sampling probes, verification <br /> of the integrity of metering systems prior to the start of sampling, etc., and (3) the use of <br /> QC samples and analytical approaches such as reagent blank samples, method blanks, <br /> �W matrix spike samples, duplicate analysis, and surrogate spiking. The performance and <br /> results of all QC procedures were recorded on appropriate forms, data sheets, field logs, <br /> and laboratory notebooks, as appropriate. <br /> 5.1 Equipment Calibration <br /> QC procedures, acceptability limits for sampling equipment calibrations, and <br /> calibration results are presented in Table 5-1. Calibration data sheets and equipment <br /> condition checklists used during calibration are provided in Appendix I. Equipment used <br /> for analysis of samples was calibrated according to the procedures in the approved standard <br /> methods and manufacturers' manuals. <br /> m 5.2 Emission Measurement and Data Quality Criteria <br /> r`� Specific QC procedures were followed to ensure the continuous production of useful <br /> and valid data. Table 5-2 presents a summary of specific criteria for assessing overall <br /> emission measurement and data quality along with the results of these determinations. <br /> 5.2.1 Blank, Spikes, and Toluene Rinse Results <br /> The results for chloride matrix spikes and relative percent difference for duplicate <br /> analysis are summarized in Table 5-3. The results for the metals laboratory reagent and <br /> field blanks are summarized in Table 5-4. The metals matrix spikes, spiked laboratory <br /> reagents, and reference material results are presented in Table 5-5. The chloride and metals <br /> r � data quality objectives as specified in Table 5-2 were met. <br /> WJ-nErnrt4951.0e-03 ss..pa <br /> 4 <br /> i�:3 <br />
