Abstract
This document provides guidance on developing Data Quality Objectives (DQOs) for Superfund sites. This guidance replaces EPA/540/G-87/003, Data Quality Objectives for Remedial Response Activities: Development Process (PB90-272634). The DQO Process is a series of planning steps based on the Scientific Method that is designed to ensure that the type, quantity, and quality of enviromental data used in decision making are appropriate for the intended application. The DQO Process was developed by EPA to help Agency personnel collect data that are important to decision making. The process allows decision makers to define their data requirements and acceptable levels of decision errors during planning, before any data are collected. Application of the DQO Process should result in data collection designs that will yield results of appropriate quality for defensible decision making.
