This Quality Control Plan (QCP) was prepared by Engineering Technologies Associates, Inc. (ETA) under Contract No. DACA31-92-D-0045, Delivery Order 0010, for the U. S. Army Environmental Center (USAEC) to address the Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study of the Defense Reutilization and Marketing Office (DRMO) Yard at Fort Meade, formerly referred to as the Defense Property and Disposal Office (DPDO). This Quality Control Plan (QCP) has been developed in accordance with the United States Toxic and Hazardous Materials Agency (USATHAMA) Geotechnical Requirements, and the USATHAMA Quality Assurance Program and the Guidance for Conducting Remedial Investigations and Feasibility Studies Under CERCLA. This QCP for the RI/FS at the DRMO Yard has been developed to comply with the requirements of the USAEC Quality Assurance Program, USATHAMA PAM 11-41, Revision No. 0, January 1990 and appropriate EPA Region III Quality Assurance Guidance as applicable. Our subcontracted laboratory will be DataChem Laboratories, of Salt Lake City, Utah. They will provide chemical analyses of environmental samples collected during this investigation. Therefore the QA Program Plan from DataChem Laboratories is included as Attachment A. ETAs corporate policy includes a commitment to a high standard of quality in the work it performs for and delivers to its clients. This policy is reflected in the quality of our general operating policies and procedures and the quality of the workmanship that is produced for our clients. We expect the same level of commitment to quality from our subcontractors. The objective of the USAEC Quality Assurance Program is to establish a QA system and proper QC procedures associated with the Quality Control Plan for specific projects, such as the Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study at the DRMO Yard at Fort Meade.
