Dichloromethane has been detected in both surface water and groundwater samples taken at hazardous waste sites. Data from the Contract Laboratory Program Statistical Database of the United States Environmental Protection Agency indicate that dichloromethane was present at geometric mean concentrations of 68 and 98 pg/L in surface water and groundwater samples, respectively, at about 30% of the sites sampled (Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, 1993).

Second-party accreditation is used widely in the United States, with many major companies, such as Ford, and official bodies, such as the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) acting as key players. The best-known public sector QA requirements are those of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for registration and compliance with GLP and GMP, and the EPA Contract Laboratory Program (CLP). The FDA requires manufacturers... [Pg.4064]

With the passage of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act in 1976 and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (i.e., Superfund) in 1980, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) entered a new era in regulation. Due to these key environmental legislation acts, the EPA s list of hazardous compounds expanded, which placed additional burdens on the EPA s Contract Laboratory Program. Turnaround time from the contract laboratories was typically greater than 30 days [108] and this was not acceptable for the many critical and timely decisions that had to be made for the remediation of contaminated sites. Consequently, field-analytical methods were developed to supplement laboratory-analytical methods. [Pg.731]
