Impact/Purpose:
to inform the public
Description:
The purpose of the cavity ringdown spectroscopy (CRDS) technology test and quality assurance plan is to specify procedures for a verification test applicable to commercial cavity ringdown spectroscopy technologies. The purpose of the verification test is to evaluate the performance participating technologies in both field and laboratory environments. In performing the verification test, the Advanced Monitoring Systems (AMS) Center, established in the Battelle Memorial Institute under an EPA cooperative agreement, will follow technical quality assurance and control procedures. These proceduresare specified in the CRDS test and quality assurance plan. Battelle will also comply with the data quality requirements in the AMS Center quality management plan.
