package at the end of the project.
Recommended content of a data package is defined in
EM 200-1-6.
**************************************************************************
The chemistry data package shall be produced and provided through USACE CO
[to the USACE QA lab] [as an attachment to the CDFR]. The chemistry data
package shall contain information to demonstrate that the project's DQO
have been fulfilled. The QA function will compare QA sample results to
corresponding primary sample results, will assess the Contractor's
compliance with the SAP, and will recommend corrective action as necessary.

CONTROL OF CHEMICAL DATA QUALITY
**************************************************************************
NOTE: EM 200-1-3 provides a detailed checklist that
enables field personnel to implement the three-phase
control procedures required for chemical
measurement, sample acquisition and shipment.
**************************************************************************
Contractor chemical data quality control shall ensure that a quality
control program is in place that assures sampling and analytical activities
and the resulting chemical parameter measurement data comply with the DQO
and the requirements of the SAP. The Contractor shall utilize the
follow-up phase for each definable feature of work. The Contractor's
three-phase chemical data control process shall ensure that data reporting
requirements are achieved and shall be implemented according to Section
01451A CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL. The three-phase chemical data control
process shall be combined with that under Section 01451A CONTRACTOR QUALITY
CONTROL.

ANALYTICAL TESTING LABORATORIES
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Designate whether an onsite laboratory is a
requirement or whether the Contractor is allowed the
option of performing chemical analyses either onsite
or offsite by the Contractor's lab in order to
comply with analytical requirements of the contract.
Specify any special laboratory requirements such as
radiation capabilities, special EPA, or state
requirements, etc.
The designer should specify the type of validation
necessary for the contract. For underground storage
tank projects, at a minimum, the laboratory must be
State certified.
**************************************************************************
The Contractor shall propose the analytical laboratories to be used for the
primary samples analyses. Laboratory validation requirements shall be in
accordance with paragraph Laboratory Validation Requirements. The
Contractor may utilize its own laboratory or utilize subcontract
laboratories to achieve the primary required sample analyses.
