ECI personnel attended the
US EPA Annual Data Quality Training Conference, held in Denver CO. The conference
provided a series of course and workshops for people who are involved in
planning, implementing, assessing, and managing environmental quality
systems
Off site field training took place on the South Platte River in Denver. This opportunity allowed participants to receive hands on training in sample site selection, collection of samples for chemical analysis, collection of biological samples, evaluation of riparian habitat, proper use of field meters and field measuring equipment, and measurement of stream flows.

The Conference was held at the Denver
Marriott City Center Hotel in downtown Denver, Colorado. Environmental
sampling requires the application of quality principles in order to
ensure that environmental data are of known and documented quality.
Field activities included sampling and site testing for a variety of
applications. From classroom to field training, the focus on quality
reverberated throughout the Conference.

The Conference provided guidance on quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) requirements to acquire technically and legally defensible environmental data from field operations. Beginning with Data Quality Objectives (DQO) through sample collection and statistical assessments of data (with and without software programs), the Conference provided a firm foundation for the generation of Quality Assurance Project Plans (QAPP).
