Quality Assurance Project Plan

This Generic Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP) was developed to define general quality assurance parameters and procedures for use in the collection, analysis, and evaluation of environmental samples collected as part of the City of Roanoke’s brownfield program. These brownfield sites are located throughout the City and this document establishes a baseline for quality control and assurance practices to be used on these projects. These measures may be modified or added to on a site-specific basis. These additional measures will be included in a site specific Sampling and Analysis Plan (SAP) along with the data quality objectives for the specific project activity.
