Serial_No:04172317:05 Project Name: Project Number: WEST ORANGE DPW IN000380.09 Lab Number: Report Date: L2317290 04/17/23 NJ DEP Data of Known Quality Protocols Conformance/Non-Conformance Summary Questionnaire 1 For each analytical method referenced in this laboratory report package, were all specified QA/QC performance criteria followed, including the requirement to explain any criteria falling outside of acceptable guidelines, as specified in the NJDEP Data of Known Quality performance standards? YES 1a Were the method specified handling, preservation, and holding time requirements met? YES 1b EPH Method: Was the EPH Method conducted without significant modifications (see Section 11.3 of respective DKQ methods)? N/A 2 Were all samples received by the laboratory in a condition consistent with that described on the associated chain-of-custody document(s)? YES 3 Were all samples received at an appropriate temperature (4 ± 2° C)? N/A 4 Were all QA/QC performance criteria specified in the NJDEP DKQP standards achieved? YES 5a Were reporting limits specified or referenced on the chain-of-custody or communicated to the laboratory prior to sample receipt? NO 5b Were these reporting limits met? N/A 6 For each analytical method referenced in this laboratory report package, were results reported for all constituents identified in the method-specific analyte lists presented in the DKQP documents and/or site-specific QAPP? YES 7 Are project-specific matrix spikes and/or laboratory duplicates included in this data set? NO Note: Page 3 of 76 For all questions to which the response was "No" (with the exception of question #7), additional information must be provided in an attached narrative. If the answer to question #1, #1a or #1b is "No", the data package does not meet the requirements for "Data of Known Quality".
Serial_No:04172317:05 Project Name: Project Number: Lab Number: Report Date: WEST ORANGE DPW IN000380.09 L2317290 04/17/23 Case Narrative The samples were received in accordance with the Chain of Custody and no significant deviations were encountered during the preparation or analysis unless otherwise noted. Sample Receipt, Container Information, and the Chain of Custody are located at the back of the report. Results contained within this report relate only to the samples submitted under this Alpha Lab Number and meet NELAP requirements for all NELAP accredited parameters unless otherwise noted in the following narrative. The data presented in this report is organized by parameter (i.e. VOC, SVOC, etc.). Sample specific Quality Control data (i.e. Surrogate Spike Recovery) is reported at the end of the target analyte list for each individual sample, followed by the Laboratory Batch Quality Control at the end of each parameter. Tentatively Identified Compounds (TICs), if requested, are reported for compounds identified to be present and are not part of the method/program Target Compound List, even if only a subset of the TCL are being reported. If a sample was re-analyzed or re-extracted due to a required quality control corrective action and if both sets of data are reported, the Laboratory ID of the re-analysis or re-extraction is designated with an "R" or "RE", respectively. When multiple Batch Quality Control elements are reported (e.g. more than one LCS), the associated samples for each element are noted in the grey shaded header line of each data table. Any Laboratory Batch, Sample Specific % recovery or RPD value that is outside the listed Acceptance Criteria is bolded in the report. In reference to questions H (CAM) or 4 (RCP) when "NO" is checked, the performance criteria for CAM and RCP methods allow for some quality control failures to occur and still be within method compliance. In these instances, the specific failure is not narrated but noted in the associated QC Outlier Summary Report, located directly after the Case Narrative. QC information is also incorporated in the Data Usability Assessment table (Format 11) of our Data Merger tool, where it can be reviewed in conjunction with the sample result, associated regulatory criteria and any associated data usability implications. Soil/sediments, solids and tissues are reported on a dry
