| Abstract |
FMC Corporation has Developed a system for evaluating water pollution data and the laboratories which produce these data. The system consists of a plan for the design and implementation of an interlaboratory test program. A pilot test program was included to evaluate and to verify the complete program. Investigation of ongoing interlaboratory testing programs were conducted and their deficiencies identified in their design and in the procedures by which they were conducted. The conclusions and recommendations presented in the report are supported by an extensive literature review of previous interlaboratory tests and their methods for experimental design and test data analyses. Additionally, 18 EPA, State, and private laboratories were visited to review their comments regarding difficulties and deficiencies in interlaboratory test programs in general. |
