Abstract
The paper describes the procedures followed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Quality Assurance Division, when developing a source level audit device or material (d/m). The audit d/m's are used to quantitatively determine that an EPA reference method is being properly performed by an analyst. The procedure to develop and audit d/m is described by discussing the development of an audit material for EPA reference Method 5, Determination of Particulate Emissions from Stationary Sources. The paper also presents a list of all audit d/m's currently available from the EPA Quality Assurance Division.
