NELAP or State accreditations have been awarded in laboratories since January 2001 and may be required at your facility. Are you prepared to meet the challenges of certification compliance? If the answer is no, it is imperative that you begin preparing for the changes that accreditation demands.
Additionally, EPA spot inspections are becoming more frequent. A main reason for these inspections is repeated failure of DMRQA performance samples. The EPA has been known to cite over one hundred violations at laboratories they visit and have issued fines accordingly. Lastly, key decisions concerning plant operations are often based on data generated in the laboratory. Inaccurate data can result in erroneous plant operation decisions, which can ultimately result in permit violations and related fines.
Something to think about: Do you have a Quality Manual that meets the requirements? Are your procedures documented in SOPs (standard operating procedures)? Have you been analyzing performance evaluation (PE or PT) samples? Do you have complete training records for every analyst? Are you ready for an on-site audit by the certification officers?
