MWWCA and MEDEP release new Wastewater Laboratory
Quality Assurance / Quality Control Manual
Acknowledgement
The downloadable
manuals on this page are the Compilation of a Quality Assurance Manual and a
Methods Manual. The Quality Assurance Manual (QAM) was written by Katahdin Analytical
Services on behalf of the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (MEDEP).
The Methods Manual was written by the Maine Wastewater Control Association (MWWCA).
The QAM is meant to be used as a template for your facility. It was written
specifically for wastewater laboratories and not for commercial laboratories.
It should be customized, as appropriate, for your needs. The methods manual
contains Standard Operating Procedures that may also be customizable for your
facility. Updates to both the QAM and Methods Manual template will be available
on the MEDEP and the MWWCA websites.
