| Description | The Department of Ecology (Ecology) implements a structured quality system that provides a framework for: • Planning, conducting, documenting, and assessing operations that generate new, or use existing, environmental data. • Carrying out required quality assurance (QA) and quality control (QC) activities. Ecology’s quality system encompasses both management and technical activities, and is fully described in the agency’s EPA-approved Quality Management Plan (QMP). Ecology’s current QMP (Ecology, 2020), which is based on EPA’s Requirements for Quality Management Plans, requires Ecology’s Quality Assurance Officer (QAO) to produce a Quality Report to Management (QRM) every three years. The QRM evaluates the agency’s quality system, identifies issues that need to be addressed, and makes recommendations for quality system improvements. This report to Ecology management documents various aspects of the current quality system, as well as QA/QC-related activities, from July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2021, including: • Developing and approving Quality Assurance Project Plans (QAPPs). • Documenting Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). • Undertaking quality system initiatives. • Addressing any issues associated with implementing the QMP. • Recommending changes to the quality system and QMP. • Reporting current quality system activities from all 12 of Ecology’s environmental programs. The intended audience for this report is Ecology’s director and deputy director, Ecology’s executive management team, and other interested parties. |
