Section 4. PROCUREMENT QUALITY CONTROL
In general, procurements fall into two classes - materialsand services.
Materials
When applicable. Purchase Requisitions include qualityrequirements and these requirements are incorporated in thePurchase Order. Appropriate materials ara subjected toacceptance tests or incoming inspection and records of thesetests are maintained.
The requisitioning laboratory (GC,GC/MS, etc) is responsiblefor evaluating the quality of purchased materials andnotifying the Operations Manager of any deficiency. TheOperations Manager initiates Vendor Corrective Action Ifnecessary.
Limited shelf life materials such as chemicals are identifiedand the expiration date noted on individual* containers.Documentation of QC approved lots of reagents, QC checkresults, dates of receipt and expiration dates are maintainedby the QA Manager.
Services
In addition to the control over procured materials, arigorous•program of procured services control is maintained.Any subcontractors employed by metaTRACE, Inc. are requiredto conform to metaTRACE's quality program. For example, if aservice laboratory performs some analytical work undercontract to metaTRACE, that laboratory must describe its QCprocedures and subait documentation of the QC work performed.In addition, netaTRACE routinely incorporates QC samples(blanks, duplicates or samples whose true values are know tonetaTRACE) in the sample load so that they are unrecognizableto the subcontractor. The results on these samples providean independent measure of the quality of the subcontractor'swork.

Section S. FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT'
metaTRACE facilities and instrumentation represent the state-of-the-art for commercial analytical laboratories. We havetaken advantage of our start-up and purchased the mostsophisticated instrumentation available for the productionand management of high quality analytical data. The foundersof metaTRACE also used their decades of laboratory managementexperience to direct the design of our new facility. So -literally from the ground up, the netaTRACE laboratory isuniquely equipped to handle the requirements of today's mostcomplex and demanding environmental programs.
Facilities
The design of our new 27,000 square foot facility optimizesthe flow of samples, information and staff. The samplereceiving area's 3,000 square feet includes four truck bays,a secured solvent and waste storage area, and two walk-incoolers: one for medium to high hazard samples and the otherfor conventional samples. From the receiving area, samplesgo directly into either the Preparation Laboratory or theRegulated Access Area (RAA). The 2,000 square footPreparation Laboratory is designed for the efficientpreparation of large numbers of low to medium hazard samplesfor instrumental analysis. The RAA, for high hazard samplepreparation, has negative pressure air flow to preventcontamination' from entering other areas of the laboratory.Employees enter the RAA through airlocks complete with changeand shower facilities. Extracts proceed from the RAA througha pass-through to instrument laboratories. The RAA alsoprovides the ability to prepare highly toxic or radioactivesamples by remote robotic manipulation.
From the sample Preparation Laboratories, samples flow intoone of several netaTRACE instrument laboratories:
o ICAP/AA Laboratory for the analysis of metals
o Tech Laboratory containing automated instrumentation,for example, Technicon Autoanalyzers
o Chromatography Laboratory (GC, 1C, HPLC) equipped withpositive air pressure to isolate the lab from the samplepreparation areas
o GC/MS Laboratory where 0 GC/MS systems operate; lab hasa totally independent air handling system with charcoaland HEPA filters and positive air pressure• «
o Radiochemistry Laboratory with instrumentation designedfor various low level radiological analyses
IIli
Computer terminals are located in the laboratories and y Joffices of metaTRACE Program Managers to allow easy access to ^*^our computerized Laboratory Information Management System(LIMS) which tracks samples through every stage of handling,from receipt through disposal, and captures analyticalresults, thereby facilitating reporting.
Equipment
A current list of major equipment at metaTRACE is included asTable 1.
metaTRACE follows an orderly program of positive actions toprevent the failure of equipment or instruments during use.This preventive maintenance and careful calibration helpsto assure accurate measurements from instrumentation.Routine maintenance procedures are followed for allinstruments, glassware, deionlzed water, reagents andanalytical balances. These procedures are outlined in themetaTRACE SOP No. G030, included as Appendix D.

Explosives Analysis
metaTRACE has extensive expertise and experience, bothcorporate and individual, in the analysis of explosives andother military compounds in environmental samples. Theprimary analytical method for explosives analysis employsUS Army Toxic and Hazardous Materials Agency (USATHAMA)methodology. This method, originally developed for the Armyby metaTRACE principals, utilizes High Performance LiquidChromatography and is able to determine, in a singleanalysis, the following explosives, byproducts anddegradation products: 2,4,6-TNT; 2,4-DNT; 2,6-DNT; Tetryl;RDX; HMX; NB; 1,3-DNB; 1,3,5-TNB; and four anino/nitrodegradation products of TUT and DNT. metaTRACE has employedthis methodology for the analysis of hundreds of samples fora remedial action project in the midwest. In addition,metaTRACE principals have prior experience in the analysis ofthousands of environmental samples for explosives and othermilitary compounds from military facilities.
Specific Analytical Procedures
Analytical procedures and methodology generally followestablished EPA protocol. Table 2 is a list of the methods <. ,used for particular analytes or fractions. Implementation of V—'these methods is facilitated by the metaTRACE SOPs. The onlyvariance from EPA established methods allowed is for clients,e.g. USATHAMA', whose QA/QC requirements are more stringentthan those of the EPA, or where EPA methods do not exist forthe requested analytes. Separata SOPs for this type of work -have been prepared and are used as required. Included inAppendix E are the Tables of Contents from the General (G),General Methodology (GM), and Contract Laboratory Program(CLP) SOPs, • some of which have been included in total inother appendices.
The metaTRACE Quality Control Program includes strictadherence to routine calibration procedures. Detailedprocedures and instrumentation to be utilized depend onspecific projects; plans for calibration are developed forthese specific projects. General calibration procedures andfrequencies are outlined in metaTRACE SOP Numbers G026 andG030, included as Appendix F and Appendix D, respectively.

The MDL'c obtained by this procedureare used to judge the significance of a single measurementand is designed for a broad variety of physical and chemicalmethods. Values generally used for EPA target compounds arethose required by the most recent CLP contract, also includedin Appendix G. , *r vt y
netaTRACE makes use of intralaboratory testing to achieve thebest possible performance within its own laboratories and 'interlaboratory testing to compare that performance with -other laboratories* „<-_, r \f ;
Intralaboratory testing is performed to demonstrate that theanalytical system is in control, to identify any sources oferror within the measurement method, and to. establish theprecision and accuracy of the method. '
metaTRACE uses a laboratory blank prepared according to thespecific method and matrix requirements. Method blanks arerun with every analysis batchi they aid in demonstrating goodcontrol, or in investigating problems. Some of the potentialsources of error*.are the operator or analyst, equipment,calibration, or the operating conditions.
• = * . . • • ' ' . - ' 'metaTRACE uses Laboratory Control Standards (LCS), and/orspiked blank whose true values are known to the analyst toestablish that the analytical procedure is in control, Alaboratory control standard Is a blank into which a knownamount of the analyte(s) of interest is(are) epiked. Samplesmust be tied to the LCS by means of a date or batchidentifier. Recorded data generated by'the analysis of the •LCS"will be used to construct a Control chart (see-Attachment2) and control limits will be established. After analysis ofeach batch of samples, the analyst must check the appropriatecontrol chart to ensure that the analysis value for the LCSfalls within the control limits for that method. If the LCSexceeds the control limits, corrective action is taken; nofurther samples are analyzed until analysis of an LCS showsthe methodology is in control* . •A surrogate standard,.is a mixture of compounds spiked intoall camples unless a specif ic exception is made in thefl«teftKbditself. . The surrogate standard has applications to organicanalytes determined by GC £ GC/MS procedures and may be usedto determine recoveries and therefore matrix interferences.
flRI»OQI»76
A matrix spike is an environmental sample spiked with thecompounds of interest or a representative cocktail of these •compounds. The matrix spike is used to determine the effectof the matrix on recovery, rather than as a control sample.
I . The matrix spike has applications to inorganic and organici analyses and may be used to determine chemical recoveries\ from the environmental matrix.
Precision is determined on replicate samples; if theses replicate samples are standard reference materials, accuracy
can be determined at the same time. Acceptance limits areestablished using tha range between the duplicates. During
j analysis, if the range of a set of duplicates falls beyond| the control limit, tha data will be regarded as unreliable.t Immediate corrective action will be taken and the analyses, repeated. Matrix spika and matrix spike duplicate samples^ per CLP protocol will be used to satisfy the duplicate| criteria for GC and GC/MS analyses.

I Blind QC samples are periodically inserted into a sequence ofsamples by the QA Manager." Blind QC samples are prepared
'-" designee independently from the laboratory operations staff\ ; and serve as an independent check on the analyst's' ~ performance. Blind QC samples may be obtained from reference
materials purchased from the EPA, NBS, ERA or any othercertified quality control source. Blind QC samples can alsobe prepared from sample splits or previously analyzed samplesof known concentrations under the guidance and control of theQA Manager. They are initiated into metaTRACE's chain-ofcustody routine as a normal sample and handled as such untilanalysis and reporting of results is complete. Results ofperformance on QC samples is compiled and documented by theQA Manager.
' Interlaboratory tests are designed to compare the performanceof several laboratories. . Usually, identical sample sets aresubmitted to a relatively large number of laboratories. A.coordinating lab receives all the results and summarizes thedata so that any participating laboratory can evaluate andimprove its own performance. netaTRACE laboratoriesparticipate regularly in Water Supply Performance'Evaluations; Water Pollution Performance surveys; AsbestosBulk Sample Analysis QA Program; and specialized auditprograms such as that for Level 1 Environmental Assessmentanalyses.

Section 11. CORRECTIVE ACTION
' • ' • " " • " : . . ' 'Perhaps the single most important part of any qualityassurance program is a well-defined, effective policy forcorrecting quality problems. metaTRACE maintains a closed-loop corrective action system under the direction of the QAManager with full management support. While the entire QAProgram operates to prevent problems, it also serves toidentify and correct those that may exist. Usually theseproblems require either immediate corrective action or long-tern corrective action. •
Immediate corrective Action
Specific QC procedures and checklists are designed to helpanalysts detect the need for corrective action. Instrumentor equipment malfunctions and associated repairs are mostamenable to immediate corrective action by the analyst,before erroneous data is generated. metaTRACE*s QCprocedures incorporate method or equipment specific operatingranges or instrument tuning and/or calibration proceduresdesigned to define instrument performance. Analysts areresponsible for ensuring that each piece of equipment orinstrument meets method or manufacturer criteria prior tosample analysis. Corrective action night include , jrecalibration of instruments, reanalysis of known QC samples, -and, if necessary, of actual field samples* The action mayalso include-disassembly and cleaning or replacement ofequipment/instrument parts. metaTRACE maintains servicecontracts on all major instrumentation as a precautionagainst instrument downtime. All instrument repairs arerecorded in individual laboratory maintenance notebooks.
Longterm Corrective Action•Any quality control problen identified by standard QCprocedures, control charts, performance or system auditswhich cannot be resolved by immediate corrective action fallsinto the long-tern category. metaTRACE uses established QCparameters, to identify out-of-control situations, andidentifies procedures to ensure that out-of-controlsituations are reported to appropriate personnel responsiblefor ensuring that the problem is corrected as part of aclosed-loop action. The essential steps in the metaTRACElong-term corrective action systen are:
o ' Identify the out-of-control situation. This is bestaccomplished through the daily review of established QCcharts which define acceptable method performance.
o Assign responsibility for investigating the problem.
\
o Investigate the cause of the out-of-control situation andidentify affected data,: jn
o Determine a corrective action plan to eliminate'theproblem. Action plans may require changes in, or thedevelopment of additional SOPs, additional training forpersonnel, or maintenance/repair of equipment/instruments. .
o Monitor and evaluate data to establish the effectivenessof the corrective action ""
o Verify that the chosen corrective action has eliminatedthe out-of-control problem. Reanalyze affected samples andreport data. - - — -
Documentation of the problem ie important to the system. ACorrective Action Request ie initiated by the QA Managerimmediately after a situation is indentified. This report,included as Figure 3, identifies the problem, possible causesand the person responsible for action on-the problem. Theresponsible person may be anyone within the metaTRACEorganization. If no person is easily identified asresponsible for action, the QA Manager investigates thesituation and determines who is responsible.
The corrective Action Report-includes a description of thecorrective action planned and the date it was initiated, andspace for follow-up actions. The QA Manager checks to besure that the initial action is appropriate and has been ~implemented and, at appropriate later d&tes, rechecks to seethat the problem has been fully solved. The report aids theQA Manager in follow-up and-makes any quality problems ~ -visible to management; it may also prove valuable in solvingfuture similar problems. ——-

Section. 14. DOCUMENT CONTROL
The varied activities of toetaTRACE require many forms ofdocument control to provide completeness and traceability,clear sample identification and chain-of custody information,confidentiality, current 'technical and QC proceduredescriptions, and retrieval of information. Documentsgenerated include computer programs, lab data sheets,,technical drawings, official project memos and reports. TheStandard Operating Procedures address document controlprocedures appropriate to each technical work area; generalinformation is provided in this section.
Measures to Ensure Completeness and Traceability
Notebooks and standardized data forms are used, and logs ofgathered data and its sources are maintained to ensurecompleteness and traceability. Bound and paginated notebooksare used for laboratory analysis. The notebooks are page-numbered in single-or double- page versions; the pagenumbering ensures that data is not removed or added.Completed pages are dated and witnessed. ' The double-pagebooks are used with carbon paper to provide a copy of thedata* The Laboratory Standard Operating Procedures containdetailed sections on laboratory notebook use.
Standardized data forms are designed to gather the completeset of data needed for a particular technical activity.Telephone Conversation Reports, and Instrument CalibrationSheets are examples of the many types of data sheets used bymetaTRACE's staff members. The standardized forms alsoensure the comparability of data gathered by different peopleworking on the same task.
Document control of data gathered from various sources ismaintained by keeping a record or log of all the data. Thelog includes the title and/or description of each item, itssource and/or author and the date it was received. It isuseful to number each data item and provide a keywork orother very brief summary of the contents.
Project Document Inventory
Some projects require the compilation of a document inventorycontaining all project documents. EPA's National EnforcementInvestigations Center (NEIC) has outlined requirements forthis type of document control in two publications: "NEICPolicies and Procedures Manual* and "EnforcementConsideration for Evaluation of Uncontrolled Hazardous WasteDisposal Sites by Contractors.*
flRlt.OOI»90
metaTRACE follows the rigorous NEIC requirements whenappropriate. They include the designation of a Document
J( Control Coordinator and the identification of accountabledocuments. Preserialized sample identification tags andchain-of-custody records are used and a unique project code
i is used for all project documents.

Alliance maintains an extensive inventory of air, water, soil and waste field samplingand analysis equipment and has ready access to instruments owned by other TKCcompanies. All equipment is stored in o central location and is maintained andcalibrated on a regular schedule in order to ensure reliable data and prevent costlydelays. Before equipment is sent out on, an assignment, it is calibrated according tothe manufacturer's recommendations end worn or broken parts are replaced. .Equipment in the field is tracked as to the assignment for which it is being usedand the date it is expected to be returned. This ensures that equipment is availablewhen needed. In the field, equipment is re-calibrated before each use to make surethat any loss of accuracy due to transport has been corrected and to take intoaccount temperature and humidity changes. When equipment is returned, it islogged in, checked for damage, cleaned and repaired as necessary and relumed toequipment inventory, ready for use again. Table 4.1 presents an itemized list ofavailable equipment.
The equipment and facilities described in Table 4.1 are available for all projects usneeded. If required, additional support equipment, including carpentry and machinetools, is also provided. Alliance can design and construct specialized apparatus formonitoring, sample collection, and chemical characterization ot virtually tiny *iic.

To be competitive in today's analytical services market.metaTRACE provides clients vith what we call a **v*ftt\ej-a,qpejaservice. This service, provided by our project managementstaff aided by our computerized Laboratory InformationManagement System (LIMS), translates into better service toour clients. When you become a metaTRACE client, you will be
assigned a Project Manager who will be your principal pointof contact in the organization. The metaTRACE ProjectManager has no other .responsibilities within the laboratoryexcept to-assure that his/her clients' analytical needs aremet. metaTRACE Project Managers are not salesmen but ' 'professional environmental chemists with a businessbackground. Their charter is to provide data of the highestquality, on tha date it was promised, along with ensuringthat all contractual obligations are met.
Laboratory Information Management System ' .
To aid our Project Managers, metaTRACE utilizes a state-of-the-art, computerized Laboratory Information ManagementSystem (LIMS). Known as LAB WORKS, this system is designed tomanage the flow of samples through the laboratory. LAB WORKSprovides managersr analysts and technicians instant access toall the information they need regarding samples in thelaboratory, enabling them to perform their duties in the mostefficient manner possible.
Some of the key features of LAB WORKS are summarized below:
o LAB WORKS is a network system of personal computers toallow maximum flexibility and potential for expansion.Only recently has networking technology advanced to thepoint where sufficient core is available to efficientlyhandle a LIMS system. metaTRACE took advantage of ourstartup to gain the most advanced technology on themarket. . • * '
o When samples.are received and logged in, they receivea metaTRACE number and corresponding bar code whichvirtually eliminates misldentification of samples dueto key punch or transcription errors.
o Samples are tracked. according to holding times withbacklog reports supplied to section managers on adaily basis. .This eliminates "missed" holding timesdue to overlooked samples.
o A feature that may be of particular interest to manyis the ability to allow clients direct access to theirvalidated data. In addition, the client can query thesystem for sample status on their program.
We feel that the metaTRACE project management system, aidedby the most advanced information management system available,enables us to provide client support beyond any of eturcompetitors. We urge you to visit our facility, m«evourstaff, and see for yourself what metaTRACE has to offer.

The design of our 30,000 square foot facility optimizes theflow of samples, Information and staff. The sample receivingarea's 3,000 square feet includes four truck bays, a securedsolvent and waste storage area, and two walk-in coolers: onefor medium to high hazard samples and the other forconventional samples. From the receiving area, samples godirectly into either the Preparation Laboratory or theRegulated Access Area (RAA). The 2,000 square footPreparation Laboratory is designed for the efficientpreparation of large numbers of low to medium hazard samplesfor instrumental analysis. The RAA, for high hazard samplepreparation, has negative pressure air flow to preventcontamination from entering other areas of the laboratory.Employees enter the RAA through airlocks complete with changeand shower facilities. Extracts proceed from the RAA througha pass-through to instrument laboratories.' The RAA alsoprovides the ability to prepare highly toxic or radioactivesamples by remote robotic manipulation.
From the sample Preparation Laboratories, samples flow intoone of several metaTRACE instrument laboratories:
o ICAP/AA Laboratory for the analysis of metals
o Tech Laboratory containing automated instrumentation,for example, Technicon Autoanalyzers
"^ • o Chromatography Laboratory (GC, 1C, HPLC) equipped withpositive air pressure to isolate the lab from the samplepreparation areas
o GC/MS Laboratory where 10 GC/MS systems operate; lab hasa totally independent air handling system with charcoaland HEPA filters and positive air pressure
o Radiochemistry Laboratory with instrumentation designedfor various low level radiological analyses
