AMS Quality Assurance Project Plan

A Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP) has been developed that describes the design and implementation of every aspect of the AMS program. The most recent version of the QAPP was approved by EPA in July 2017, and is being provided here to allow users of AMS results to determine if the data generated by this program meet the Data Quality Objectives (DQOs) of their particular project.

AMS QAPP version 2.0, Approved July 2017
